    Sin - Help :S

    It would depend on what you mean by "lust"? Seeing someone as attractive is not lust. An addiction to inappropriate content and fantasy is definately lust. Just thinking a girl or a guy is a attractive is not lust. Also, the Word says you can have a little beer or wine.. but not to get drunk. However, it's...

    What is your opinion of the Catholic Church?

    Well, I have Catholics in my family.. but I'd say I view the RCC as unfavorable as I don't agree with their scripture interpretation, but never unfavorable toward the Catholic people I know.

    What Do catholics Think Of Protestants?

    I agree, but further I'd say this poll is biased in that only one particular denomination CAN vote. That's how I read it, anyhow.

    Horror Movies

    I don't like too many horror movies at all, except a few Stephen King. Other than that, I don't watch them, I enjoy a "thriller" but more of an "edge of your seat" type movie, than just a bloody sicko story. I've also watched some Alfred Hitchcock. Some of his stuff is really good. But mere...

    Haggard says he is not gay

    If it were my husband and I still loved him, I would not jump to divorce. However, if my husband thought he "loved" or was in love with this person, I'd let him go. Also from the story, it looks like he is staying married and his wife wants to continue with the relationship.

    Churches that won't talk about sin?

    Altar call is merely a public confession that Jesus Christ is the Son of the Living God, as Peter confessed. It is also confessing in public that Jesus died for your sins and rose on the third day. What does one base a "Christian" church on, if not for that? Jesus is the beginning of a...

    Underestimating Mary, BLessed Virgin, Queen of Peace, Mother of God

    Established positions? Hmmm, the Pharisees thought the same thing. And what did Jesus show them and/or do? Did Jesus stick with "established positions"? There were many early Christian sects. The educated world knows this and it is fact not pulp fiction. Even the apostles wrote about it in...

    Trinity or Quartet? They don't believe this do they?

    Yes, I see it similarly. But I also wanted to add that the word "husband" as used in the Bible regarding God and His taking care of His bride (which means His whole body of believers) actually means that God is our provider. We look to Him and trust in Him to provide for us. At the...

    Can a Chrsitian become deflied? Can a Christian fail of God's Grace?

    That's not what the scripture is saying. Here is part of that verse from the NIV, perhaps this can clear things up for you a bit. It is a warning to unbelievers. Hebrews 12:14-15 Warning Against Refusing God 14Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy; without...

    Bending the rules

    Well, Jesus "bent" a rule on the Sabbath by going through the grain fields and eating with "unclean" hands and the Pharisees wanting him near abouts dead for doing that! And then Jesus said, if you understood I desire mercy not sacrifice, you would not have condemned the innocent. So it...

    I am struggling to comprehend the following ...

    God hasn't set up his Kingdom yet... so man still has freewill as does Satan, roaming freely in the world. Sin has not been defeated in the world. It can only be defeated in each person as we are still in the age of Grace, but that comes through belief in Jesus Christ. The world is still an...

    Is Sola Scriptura a Doctrine?

    Yes, we use God's Holy scriptures of the Bible, as did Jesus and the apostles. :angel:

    Can we really "turn the other cheek" in this day and age?

    If a crime has been committed, then of course, all Christians need to work within the law, basically for the reason stated above. As far as something like "road rage" though, I think that really depends on if that person has been driving recklessly and has injured people. Then of course report...

    Is Sola Scriptura a Doctrine?

    Not true. It's the exact opposite. You are confusing freedom of religion with the Christian religion and it's sola scriptura -- the Bible. 1 Corinthians 4.. it's right above your head! I posted the scripture. :scratch:

    Is Sola Scriptura a Doctrine?

    I have no problem with it as a doctrine, otherwise we get religions such as Mormons, JW's, Jim Jones like cults and so forth. This is why Paul states "don't go beyond the scriptures"... what is written. 1 Cor 4 6Now I have applied all this [about parties and factions] to myself and...

    My dear protestants and catholics...

    I agree. I grew up Catholic, but excommunicated myself. In other words, I left on purpose. Good article.

    Starting An E-Business

    You need to get a wholesale license first. And then you need to find the companies that deal with wholesalers. Here's a link I found for you of some wholesale Christian items. You can also type in WHOLESALE CHRISTIAN PRODUCTS in your search engine and browse around, but you do need to get a...
