    in need of support and prayer

    day 2 (and a half): I didn't have much time to post anything last night, yesterday was pretty eventful. After reading the post early in the afternoon, I was definitely less emotional about it than before. After lunch I fought an afternoon of feeling completely empty. It's not good to feel...

    in need of support and prayer

    day 1: Satan sure knows when you're trying hard, cause he'll do the same. It's almost like I'm on a football field running in circles and whenever I break from the circle to score a touchdown for God, the evil one brings me back into the circle without me knowing it. Reading the post multiple...

    My husband has started viewing inappropriate contentography again. Advice...?

    Coming from a man who is seasonally addicted to inappropriate content, the quoted text is the best advise one can give. It fits very well with the teachings of Christ. Most women will attack a man for looking at inappropriate content, but you must have an attitude adjustment about this and not give your anger over to the evil...

    in need of support and prayer

    I come here today to seek support and prayer from fellow Christians. Unfortunately, I don’t have many Christian friends in my life due to the lifestyle choices I make. I need Christian fellowship. I’m writing this now because I’m stressed, and my heart is stabbing me from the...

    Question about Gensis 1:2

    What the heck is "the surface of the deep"? My inclination is that anything deep does NOT have a surface...b/c it's deep, right? New American Standard Bible (©1995) The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface...

    Question about Gensis 1:1

    How come some translations say "heavens" while others just say "heaven"? If the former is true, does this mean there are more than one heaven? Or are there different levels/layers of heaven that would need separation? Help a brotha out! New American Standard Bible (©1995) In the beginning...

    I don't know where to turn for help...

    You need to let go of the past and forgive whatever needs to be forgiven, or nothing else the world offers will help. If God took someone from your life, you need to know that everything happens for a reason. Professional help could be a start to sorting out the past, but you'll one day need...

    Is Zero Alcohol Healthy?

    Let me tell you guys a story. One day God saw that the whole world had become so sinful that he decided to end all worthless life through a great flood. He decided to spare a man and his family, Noah. As he was the best candidate to repopulate the earth. Noah built a massive Ark, and God...

    Hey guys, I'm looking for a good set of people to have weekly bible study with. I use to have a Wednesday night study group with a group of friends from college, but our facility got shut down and, well, people just drifted. Anyone in the uptown area?

    Oldest Hebrew Text Found

    Well, from reading the articles, it does not yet prove anything, but could be very promising if they fully decipher the symbols. They only things they can read so far are "King" "Slave" and "Judge". EDIT: Whoops! You did say, "May..." My bad :P

    Christmas Trees Good Or Bad?

    Try and remember I'm writing from the perspective of defending the thread starter. Obviously there was a conflict in their marriage over having a Christmas tree up this year. She probably grew up with a Christmas tree, it's probably a tradition that she can look forward to. You know, brings...

    Christmas Trees Good Or Bad?

    That only works in Christian homes. Many people call themselves Christian, but don't really follow God through Christ. So along the way, they adopt all these stupid notions about the world (like refusing to have a Christmas tree in the house). IMO, no Christian should have a problem with the...

    Would you get married if you couldn't use birth control?

    Just pull-out and pray! If the girls worth it, something like that wouldn't stop me!

    How close is your family involved in your life?

    Yeah, sounds like you need some space to leave the emotional nest. I've been away from home 7 years now and call and talk to my parents probably 3-4 times a month, and probably see them twice a month. My sister got married last year and I've probably talked to her 4 or 5 times since, she lives...
