Thanks for all the prayers for my brother. He started a new job a week ago. I haven't talked to him about it yet, but from what my mom says, he seems to be enjoying it. As for my friend, he's still searching so remember him. Also, I talked to my dad tonight. His vacation was cut short...

Read this with the mindset that I'm not condemning Obama, I'm just not sure what to believe. And I'm wondering what others think about this situation. I recently read an email that a co-worker received that states that all this controversy in Kenya, between the 2 different parties, has in...

First request: I found out today that my brother got fired from his job for wrecking a company truck a few days ago. He worked for an electrical company and was working at a plant. He was on his way of of the plant grounds and the engine locked up on him and the truck slid out of control and...

I"m now reading Wide Awake by Erwin McManus.

NASB is the closest translation next to a Greek/Hebrew/English Interlinear bible. The ESV, HCSB, and AMP are all closer to the original text than the KJV. AMP and KJV are close to each other though. Do the research on the different translations or you should be able to visit Zondervan's...

Trust me, I never read forwards..no matter who they are from. This email wasn't sent to me it was sent to a co-worker who printed it off. She had it at work so I read it. I didn't know it was a forward of any sorts. And while I do believe the snoopes.com article about the letter, why is it...

For starters, I didn't fall for a chain letter...as I said before, I wanted to know if it was true....thanks for the snoopes article. I didn't ask about the email to say that I believed it and people should be careful. I asked because I didn't know if it was true or not. As I said before, I'm...

So, with that site, are you telling me that I shouldn't read a bible that easy for me to understand? Call it "dumbing-down" if you want to, but don't chastise me for reading a bible that I can understand. What I got from that site was that the Message can't be trusted. If it can't be trusted...

Sorry if anyone thought I was trying to start a debate....hence why I said please don't debate me. And no, I wasn't getting defensive about the bible I use. I just had one of those days at work yesterday and sort of took it out in here. Today was much better. So, why do you think it is a...

And one more thing..... Trinity, this is not directed at you, as your comment sparked this, but didn't fuel it. Like I said in my last post, I work at a Christian bookstore, and we have people on a daily basis say we are wrong for carrying anything but the KJV. Who's to say what is a...

I will say that it can be tough, and yes I know about the Message Remix, as well as the Remix 2.0. I work for a Christian bookstore, so I know about bible translations. I just prefer the way it is worded. A friend of mine asked me about it and the easiest way to describe it to him was that...

90% of the time, I use The Message, but I will go back and use a NIV for study. Occasionally I'll get out my NASB for study as well.

Did any of you watch The Search for the Next Elle Woods, on MTV this week? Just wondering. Its rare (as in never) that I watch any sort of reality show, but since a friend of mine is on it, then I will be watching this one. Just seeing if anyone on here happened to catch the show and what you...

Welcome to CF!

I agree with your post, but I think we also have to look at the word yoke. Back in those days, a rabbi (teacher) would ask those who wanted to be their disciples to learn and study that rabbi's yoke (teachings). While yes, we can say that Jesus is asking us to take His yoke (plow) upon our own...

Welcome to not only Christian Forums but into a renewed life with Christ. I'll be praying that your relationship with Him grows.

Welcome to the forums....

I normally have at least 1 in my car. And as for work, I work at a Christian bookstore, so I have plenty to pick from.

I'm from Anderson.....
