Please pray for me. I am living with an older man and I need to have my own place to live. He has started threatening to kick me out if I dont become sexual with him. My job pays little, and I do not have enough money to get an apartment. The Y is so full they are turning away women and...

I dont like praying. I dont think a person should do anything spiritual just to get it over with. I dont understand prayer. What's the point of praying, say, for someone and a situation if its not God's will? Then your just praying in vain. And why do I have to ask God over and over...

I am love-starved. There is no denying it. I have been celibate for 10 years and its getting to me. I am starting to do inappropriate things. I dont know what to do.

Hey, I have been involved with christianity, in some form or another, for most of my life. I also did the "born again" or "ask Jesus into your heart" thing back in 92. I also got baptised. Things havent changed much since then. In fact, they basically got worse. I was never taught to be...

Can I get your opinion?

Has anyone who formerly turned away from the Lord, come back to Him? By Lord I mean Jesus, the Son of God? I am just talking about the people who have been members of this forum.

In order to rally people, governments need enemies. They want us to be afraid, to hate, so we will rally behind them. And if they do not have a real enemy, they will invent one in order to mobilize us.” - Thich Nhat Hanh As I ponder this verse, I wonder about our enemy, the one Jesus called...

Hello, I've been reading material about your church and I have found it very interesting. I am very glad to see that you don't follow a creed. I detest creeds - how can you judge who is a Christian based on a creed? I have met Trinitarian, Nicene Creed believing lesbians for goodness' sake...

Is the Restoration movement like the "Emergent" church movement?

Athaliammum wrote this response to one of my posts in the "The Sabbath is not Always on Friday" thread. I have given my answer in black throughout her post (the quotes are from my original post) Oh dear! Quote: God gave the Torah to make men sin even before. You have got to be...

If you keep the sabbath according to the Gentile calender, then most of the time you are not keeping the correct day. The true way to know when the sabbath occurs is by watching the moon (the lunar calender.) Here is an example of when the true sabbath occurs in this lunar calendar...

Hello, You were saying that some of the things the Church believes are "primitive." Can you give some examples? Thnak you, nasa

I need some help! I asked those cold hearted reformers, and they offered no advice whatsoever...so I am turning to you.... First, how do I change my title of "open minded Calvinist?" The Lord told me it is a sin to say, "I am a Calvinist" or "I am a Calvinist" because it is like saying "I...
