I am not really sure where to post this, but I was curious if there was anything in the history of Christianity regarding numerology or "seeing numbers" and ascribing meaning to them.

I would appreciate prayers for myself. I am lukewarm in my relationship with Christ. I am trying to be hot, but I am struggling with letting certain things go in my life. Also, I am dealing with much anger and frustration towards God with these circumstances, which I feel is preventing me from...

How would you argue that Judiasm/Christianity is actually inspired by God and didn't evolve from Zoroastrianism during the Babylonian Exile?

I wrote this post over a year ago, and was just searching through my old content when I saw this. It has been a long journey these past 10 years. I still have moments where I fall down, but overall I am extremely grateful that I am no longer the angry and bitter person that wrote these posts all...

I have finally hit a wall. I fear hell and want to avoid it, but at the same time nothing could be more awkward, or ridiculous than spending an eternity with a God you are estranged from. Oblivion would be preferable than to continue to live in this life with the knowledge of what is to come...

The above verse states one can only come to salvation if The Father draws them. How would an unbeliever persuade God to draw them unto Himself so they can be saved? Is it a simple matter of asking Him, or would that contradict the "radical depravity" of man since no one seeks God?

So I am not really sure how to start this out, or if this is even the right board. For several years I have been following a stream of Christianity known as Bethel mostly by Bill Johnson and others like him. However, some sects within the Christian community describe this as a Kundalini inspired...

Thank you everyone. I called the state troopers office and they confirmed none reported anything.

So I screwed up big time last night. I was in a car accident and instead of stopping I panicked and drove off. I am tore up with guilt and remorse, but there is no way I can contact the other party. I wasn't going fast and I believe it probably did more damage to my car and I don't believe...

Not really sure if there is a better board to post this on, but here goes. For the past two years I keep seeing repeating numbers at a very frequent rate. It started with 444, but then it later started to include 333, 555 and more recently 1111. For the most part I see them on clocks at both am...

I am sorry you are going through this. It sounds like you are dealing with multiple layers that are causing a lot of strain overall. First of all, God isn't trying to physically kill you, but He does want to kill your flesh and all these mindsets that make you feel this way since they have...

It says in Genesis that man became like God in the sense we both know good and evil. My question is how did God determine what is "good" and what is "evil." The question I guess would be if God didn't create evil, then what is the origin of evil? Some say Satan is responsible, but did he...

Interesting read. This actually is the best answer I have received by far regarding this topic. Thanks for sharing.

Before I begin, I understand there are different views on hell, but I only wish to discuss one....eternal conscious torment. Personally, I have started to break away from this view, but if there is any truth to it I want to discuss it. That said, for those of you who hold to this view, what...

Yes. Just in there head. I guess I just don't understand the underlying issues to these fantasies, I guess I overreacted perhaps.

This is going to be an interesting thread and my intention isn't to freak anyone out, or offend someone. I have recently discovered someone very close to me is dealing with a lot of mental issues. Basically they are having sexual issues were they enjoy fantasizing about rape, gynophagia...

So let me see if I understand this. God singles out Job to Satan, because he is blameless and abstains from evil. Satan argues that it is only because of all the wonderful things God has done for Job and the outcome would be different if it were taken away from him. So God makes a deal with the...

Is there a difference in God's eyes between what we think about doing and what we actually do? Is thinking about murdering someone the same as actually doing it? If someone were to stand before God on Judgement Day, would he be punished the same as a murder, even though he only thought about...

I know I this idea may sound crazy and disturbing, but ever since the Sandy Hook Connecticut shooting back in 2012, I have had this uneasy feeling that the government maybe instigating these attacks in an effort to disarm this country. It is fairly obvious they are using these mass shootings for...

Before you can love God, you must first allow Him to love you. I know for myself, I deal with a lot of self-hatred and that makes it very difficult to love anyone including God. Key part of that verse is "as yourself." I imagine it as a trickle down effect. God lavishes His love on us, we in...
