Thank you :) Very much.

Thank you both for the great responses. Thank you :)

Currently, I am not a Christian. At one point in my life I thought I was but I've fallen so far from God that I'm not even sure I was ever serious about Christianity to begin with. I want to be a Christian but I'm not sure how :confused: I believe in the Bible, I believe that it is innerant...

I totally agree with you guys, and thanks for the responses. It's not the act itself that should be considered sin. The sin comes in when we allow that act, smoking, to control us or when it causes us to hurt others physically or spiritually. C.S. Lewis was a great Christian apologist who loved...

Let me start by saying that I am not and never have been a smoker. Recently I really began to ponder why smokers are so often looked down upon by the church as if they were committing some grave sin. I found that there is one primary bit of scripture that Christians use to condemn smoking...

I enjoy reading, playing video games, watching movies, etc. but how do I know if it's ok for me to do those things? If I am reading a book about a person who has powers given to him by a ring, such as the Green Lantern comic books, is that ok or is that wrong? Same questions for other books...

Is it ok for Christians to read comic books such as those produced by DC or Marvel comics? I would particularly appreciate input from folks who happen to be familiar with comic books and typical comic book content. Thanks.

If you are ok with attending a school that was founded by a person who accepted evangelistic campaign contributions from the Ku Klux Klan and believed in racial segregation why would you be worried about attending a school that may not fit into the BJU "Biblical Separation order"?

I pre-ordered my copy of Star Trek Online the other day. Should be an awesome game. Anybody else going to check it out?

Amen! :amen:

I'm open pretty open-minded when it comes to things that most people dismiss as legend such as the exsistance of faeries and what not. I have no reason not to believe in such things so why dismiss them as stories?

Sorry, double post.

Thank you all for the answers. The arguing was not so much appreciated, nor was it helpful.

If I'm not mistaken it is wrong for you to interperater what you say yourself. There is supposed to be someone there to interperate for you so that others know that you weren't just saying what you wanted to but that it actually was from God.

Honestly, I am absolutely exhausted and just simply tired of getting saved then falling away then getting saved then falling away over and over again. I've been "saved" for about 10 years now but I'm still a baby Christian because I just can't stick with it. All I want to do is love God but I...

I would suggest not merely reading the Bible. Instead, I would urge you to study, absorb, and apply the Word. Don't just read it like you would any other book.

Amen! :thumbsup:
