    Any Soul Winners Here?

    My first tip is to pray that the Holy Spirit would regenerate those whom you plan to evangelize. He is the true "Soul Winner." We just get the awesone honor of presenting the Truth and being there when God saves. Personally, I have never had the honor. I just hope that I planted some seeds...

    I just returned from Europe

    That is something that you don't hear very often, "Thank you America for X."  I am afraid that America cannot truly take the credit for what Starbucks offers.  You can thank Italy and France for real cafes and real coffee.  The coffee in France was incredible.  Even the...

    No more Preterist talk

    <DIV>That is interesting.&nbsp; If someone believes that there will be no physical resurrection of the body and no white throne judgment, then such beliefs are not orthodox.&nbsp; I still would not say that they are not Christians, though. Regarding the second coming, I would have to research...

    No more Preterist talk

    I echo the sentiments of Kern a few pages back. One of the original reason given for banning the Preterists threads from the eschatology forum was that&nbsp;Preterists were not considered to be orthodox in their beliefs. All Preterist threads were then to be posted in the Apologetics forum...

    I just returned from Europe

    Dinkime:&nbsp; Thanks for your interest.&nbsp; I would love to see the Sacred Family Catherdral, Barcelona. Heidi:&nbsp; Thanks for the info.&nbsp; Please tell me about the book.&nbsp; That Mercenary Memorial was easily the most moving of the whole trip.&nbsp; We did not make it to the...

    I just returned from Europe

    I want to go back. I realize maybe many of you are world travelers. This was a once in a long-time if not once in a life time opportunity for me. I went on the 'Revisiting the Reformation' tour with my Alma Mater, Grove City College. We visited: England: London, Oxford, Stratford...

    Creationism... Why bother with it?

    Starscream: What happened with Copernicus was tragic and a low point for the Church. I don't dispute that. However, it is irrelevant to the discussion. One cannot discredit an idea by saying that some of its adherents are jerks or once had been wrong. a

    Creationism... Why bother with it?

    The ICR oath that you quoted is on a the Holy Smoke web site, a site dedicated to the critique of creationism. For the true ICR "Tenets of Creationism", go here: http://www.icr.org/abouticr/tenets.htm Zadok, you set up the proverbial straw man and tried to knock it down. Regardless of...

    Happy Tax Day!

    It is always better to owe a little at tax time. That way your money can be gathering interest/dividends for you instead of the gov't. a

    what is your favorite beverage?

    Warm: Espresso Drinks - I agree regarding the mochas. Although, I like just a hint of mocha. Only the best beans, i.e. Bucks. I wish I could handle the caffeine like I used to. *sigh* It's terrible when it wears off. Cold: Iced tea or half and half (iced tea and lemonaid)

    nicknames:why you chose the one you chose

    Mine is a reference to my name. I used to play a game on another board where you could have little symbols as well. Mine was a lion. I would play a game and see if anyone could guess my names, first and middle, according to my username and symbol. It actually is not very hard...

    The NATURE of the resurrection, second coming, Heavens & Earth passing, etc.

    I have not read all of these posts and probably never will. I would like to recommend reading what Dr. N.T. Wright has to say on these subjects. I attended a C.S. Lewis Institute conference where he spoke on "Resurrection and Life After Death." His points challenged and enlightened me...

    True Israel

    When considering what is happenign with the Israelis and the Palestinians, I always end up asking if Israel does have a true, God given claim to the land. If they do, they have every right and obligation to evict the Palestinians. If not, I am not sure what the best thing to do is. Then...
