    Christ Taken out of Co. Mission Statement

    Very Unfortunate. I am wondering is it possible that the sudden loss of funds is a direct result of "Our" omission of Christ's name? I believe this is the case. My father left a note for me on the subject: "Perhaps in our attempt to not offend man, we have offended God." Makes a lot of sense to me.

    My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me

    Does God still speak today? Is it possible that God will give a person alternative insight into a piece of scripture, that might differ from the traditional interpretation? i believe he can and does. This does not take away from its original/literal meaning. It was never my intent, when i chose...

    My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me

    i do not believe there is a wrong response to this thread...think about this though: is it possible that at the moment Christ felt the furthest away from His Father, He actually was never closer?

    My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me

    Matthew 27:45-46 says, "Now from the sixth hour darkness fell upon all the land until the ninth hour. 46And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" that is, "My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?" I find encouragement and comfort in...
