Can somebody answer me how the post is apparently meant to be one big guilt trip? I read it and think, "Man, I don't even have to go overseas and I can still be a crucial element of what God is doing over there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" But really, why feel guilty? If you are already giving...

I don't know if you've ever been to Texas but if you have you'll know that there are super churches after super churches that cost millions and millions and millions of dollars. WHO GO TO THESE CHURCHES? Definitely the average joe's. How corrupt has the American church gotten that we're more...

Really? $1.50? How does this sound, go to www.gotquestions.org and they have a little side blurp where you can pick up the book for FREE. Of course it's not the only way to give, this just happens to be a very credible organization where 100% of mission funds are given directly to the field...

Matthew 25:41 says, "Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels." God created hell for the devil and his angels. Sin entered in, that means that people started choosing Satan's way instead of God's way...

You might find some answers here, this guy is really smart. There are 5 parts to this video and after this first one ends it should direct you to the next. Any comments? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jzR_zKvAik

Luke 23:43, 2 Corinthians 12:4, and Revelation 2:7 all refer to heaven as a place of paradise. So yes, the Christian worldview is that heaven will be a paradise. We can't even really imagine what all will be there or what we'll be doing the whole time but I do know that we will be with God and...

I posted just a portion of this article I found at http://www.gotquestions.org/did-God-create-evil.html Question: "Did God create evil?" Answer: At first it might seem that if God created all things then evil must have been created by God. However, there is an assumption here that needs to...

Agreed

Huntingman, Exodus 21:7-11 says this, "If a man sells his daughter as a servant, she is not to go free as menservants do. If she does not please the master who has selected her for himself, he must let her be redeemed. He has no right to sell her to foreigners, because he has broken faith with...

I had to laugh when I saw this, I've never heard it before either. I believe the two becoming one is about something spiritual that happens between the man and woman and is also why it is so important to save sex for marriage in and of itself.

Matthew 19:9 "I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery." I believe that when the Bible talks about divorce it is not talking about signing a divorce document. A divorce in God's eyes is when one of the marriage...

http://www.studylight.org/lex/grk/view.cgi?number=630 Here's a website with the Greek lexicon for apoluo and a little of what is says: Strong's Number: 630a)polu/wOriginal WordWord Origin a)polu/w from (575) and (3089)Transliterated WordPhonetic Spelling Apoluo ap-ol-oo'-o Parts of...

From the sound of it while she may call herself a Christian it doesn't mean that she is truly a Christ follower. That's the problem, people think that just because they said a prayer once that they are a Christian. If you're a Christian then as 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, "Therefore, if anyone is...

I looked up the definition from Strong's Greek Concordance for apoluo and turns out it is not just to "put away" but "to divorce." http://www.htmlbible.com/sacrednamebiblecom/kjvstrongs/STRGRK6.htm#S630

Speaking from experience, the only way to combat the temptation will be to have many many people keeping you accountable and as hard as it is, never ever ever being alone, in the car, apartment, at the park, WHEREVER! I know it is very very very hard. I also know that when I was dating my...

Agreed. Relationships are hard but if you choose to be in one then you have to know that there will be difficult situations ahead. It sounds like you're developing a pattern where you have a committed relationship, become unhappy then think that the only answer is to find someone better. What...

Alright, I'll say it again, being over weight is not healthy. What if the OP is preventing her from getting type 2 diabetes, heart disease, cancer, cardio and respiratory illnesses, high blood pressure, osteoarthritis, high cholesterol, stroke, gall bladder disease, and sleep apnea? Who really...

So I've been learning a lot from looking at these two sources I quoted above and I wanted to share it here because it is different from my past posts. Matthew 19:9 (New International Version) "9I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries...

I don't know if any of you know much about Focus on the Family but I consider it a reputable source. I looked up what they had to say and this is what I found: The issue of remarriage after divorce arouses even more controversy, and not all theologians agree. Focus on the Family holds that...

1.) Good point, here's what I think...When God said that eating from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil would result in death he was talking about spiritual death, i.e. hell. But then sin entered into the world by A&E's disobedience and Satan became the "ruler of the power of the air" Eph...
