I completely agree that the historical teaching of much of the Christian church has been that homosexuality is wrong; and, while I do not want argue the homosexuality issue itself, I do want to point out that we are Anglicans and our theology is based on the "three legged stool" of Scripture...

Amen! Nice to see you too!

Excellent advice. I too, have been in a similar situation. I just want to echo mina's advice and build on one fact. Remember that your actions are a witness of your faith just as loud - if not louder - as your words. Keep living your faith through much prayer, and remember that nothing is...

I am glad that this came up. When I saw the interview, I knew that Gibson's statement on "others" getting into heaven would cause some controversy. I use wonder111's post, because I agree. I was recently at a class/discussion taught by my bishop and this very subject came up. The bishop...

In - yet another - tired ol' thread about the Episcopal Church's decision regarding Bishop Robinson, it is always nice to hear from Polycarp1. WELL DONE on the above post! As an Episcopalian, I completely agree with Polycarp's post and the decisions of my church.

I understand your frustration... I think all of us have had that frustration at some point or another. However, I don't think that this is that big of a deal. If we are going to have age-specific groups on this forum, then there has to be a line somewhere. The "line" for this specific forum...

I am giving up caffeine beverages. I am addicted to espresso and Coke, so it really will be giving up something significant. Lord knows, I will need a lot of faith and prayer to get me through! ;)

Bravo! It's always nice to see someone who feels the same way I do. Welcome to CF!

I am most certainly the same on here as in person. As a matter of fact, I don't like the idea of having an "online" personality and a "real life" personality - be you! Whether I am on CF or face-to-face with a friend, I try to keep an open mind (being mindful of the fact that people have...

ajayc - I read the article and it is a good perspective. Although I haven't seen the movie, I believe that is the thought process that Mel Gibson is going for in the film. With the upcoming movie, there has been a great deal of talk about the crucifixion (who's responsible, etc.). I hope...

I just took the test... very interesting. I am an ENFJ (Idealist, teacher). I can't really disagree with what the description says about my type either. Thanks for the link!

Well, you must understand that it is an important aspect of our faith (the Christian faith) to spread the "Good News" of our salvation. (There are many ways of spreading the word, however; some I approve of, others I don't). It is what we are "commissioned" to do as believers. This man sees...

...following in the footsteps of Christ! The way it was meant to be!

OUTSTANDING!!! Good for you!

Janet admitted it was to be torn with a red lacey piece to be underneath. When it ripped with the outer top, it was an accident... thus the nudity was an accident. Regardless, life goes on and our lives are no worse because Janet showed a breast for 1 second on tv; that is the point I was...

I have little doubt that it is okay to practice the physical activity of yoga. As a matter of fact (as repentandbelieve eluded to) you can use the meditative aspects of yoga to help your prayer life. Take the class, have fun, and God Bless. Peace.

I like this quote... and I couldn't agree more. The Bible tells us that we are saved by grace and grace alone. While we follow the teachings of Christ to assure us of our spot in God's grace, we do not know to whom else He will extend it and why. While I agree that suicide is not in God's...

Agreed. It was a mistake... let's move on.

Of course you can't personally vouch for a movie that you haven't seen, but you can listen to credible Christian sources who certainly wouldn't endorse a movie that was "far fetched." High ranking officials in the Vatican as well as many other respected Christian leaders have endorsed this...
