    Confusion over Quantum Physics

    I think you're referring to my mention of hyperdimensions. These are different from what you think of with "dimensions" like in Sliders. We live in a three-dimensional universe, based on three axis that can reference every physical object we perceive. However, mathematics allows the possibility...

    Confusion over Quantum Physics

    I should point out, I haven't actually SEEN "What the Bleep...", I simply heard this movie speaks on the subject. The first time I heard of this field of Quantum Physics was on a show on Cable, there was a documentary regarding similar things mentioned previously. They even mentioned something...

    Confusion over Quantum Physics

    Hey all, I have returned, but probably only briefly. I have a topic that has just put a major dent in my faith in God today, and perhaps the main reason I'm here is for reassurance to repair that damage. Some of you may have heard of the advances in Quantum Physics that suggest such things as...

    What Happens Once You Commit ?

    This is one of the reasons I am already looking into new treatments for depression and other mental illnesses without the use of drugs. I"ll probably be shut down one day by the Australian Medical Association for my drug-free practices ("The money isn't in the cure, the money is in the...

    New Forum: Fundamentalist Churches

    Well, according to the rules of this forum, I'm a fundamentalist! I've always considered myself to be pretty conservative, but perhaps due to my initial beginnings with Christ the word "fundamentalist" is a dirty word to me LOL. To me, a "fundamentalist" is a "Jack Chick"-style, hateful, arogant...

    So Just Exactly How Does the Fund. Christian Know Whether or Not Our. . . .

    Christian nations? Name one truly Christian nation left in this world. America calls itself "Christian", as does Australia, the United Kingdom, the Philippines, New Zealand, etc. but judging from what comes out of them one could hardly call any of them truly Christian. Even if the majority could...

    GRACE - a licese to sin? LAW - Holiness?

    So instead of trying to seek righteousness and trying to follow what Jesus Himself commanded you to do, you instead try to pretend your sin doesn't exist. Or else you do know you have sin, but simply choose to ignore that fact. What makes your faith different to the faith demons have then? And...

    What Happens Once You Commit ?

    And I know what I'm talking about. I suffered severe unipolar depression for most of my child and teen life, and suffered for about twelve months last year with post traumatic stress disorder. I am now a studying psychologist. And I have this to say on depression. Clinical depression is a...

    What Happens Once You Commit ?

    That's another good point. The topic of suicide leads to the question of OSAS. If OSAS is true, then a truly saved Christian will never commit suicide. If it is not, then a saved Christian can commit suicide, and be damned for Hell as a result for totally rejecting God in their dying breath...

    What Happens Once You Commit ?

    Fair enough. My Bible says sin cannot enter heaven. So maybe the Christian who commits suicide goes to Purgatory to be purged of sin ay? My Bible also denies the doctrine of Purgatory, so you'll have to discuss the finer points of that one with one of the churches that teaches it. 'Shady

    What Happens Once You Commit ?

    For a person to commit suicide, they have to be already rejecting of God's grace as it is. I seriously doubt that, while a Christian may get very strong temptations of suicide (as a Christian can get temptations for any sin), they would actually carry it out, for that would be to deny everything...

    Question on Mind-reading Demons

    Hey all It's always been my understanding that demons cannot read one's thoughts, because they don't share the omniscience that God has, they can only input thoughts. However, it just occurred to me now, as I was going to bed (ever notice that some of your best thinking happens when you're...

    If God asked you these questions how would you answer?

    Who is going to judge God for judging someone? Is God not the righteous Judge over all the world? 'Shady

    Holy Ghost Manifestations

    I think you're forgetting one vital factor: we are still human. We make mistakes. Yes, the Holy Spirit can tell the difference between Himself and a demonic spirit, but unless you test the spirits how do you know you're even listening to the Holy Spirit? And I'm speaking more of the fact that...

    Holy Ghost Manifestations

    What? You've confused me. I didn't say anything about ridicule LOL. I'm talking about the fact that if you accept every manifestation that happens to you as being of God, what's to stop Satan from counterfeiting a manifestation and attacking you as such? And you wouldn't even know unless you...

    Holy Spirit

    Easy answer: we are still human. No matter what denomination we are in, the Holy Spirit gives us the same interpretation. No matter who we are, the Holy Spirit gives us the same interpretation. The problem is, our own human thoughts and feelings can and do cloud that interpretation, to...

    Holy Ghost Manifestations

    No body here is denying that God works in amazing and miraculous ways, and no one is saying He can't and doesn't come to us and manifest Himself before us now. However, what we are saying is not to believe that EVERY ONE of these manifestations is God, but to test them as God Himself suggests in...

    Holy Ghost Manifestations

    Actually, it's the NIV Bible dictionary ;). I should also point out though, that while I'm not 100% on the witness factor you request, the two counts I recall of the Shekhinah were verified by at least one other source who saw it too. However, I do fully agree with you that we must "test the...
