    Question about the usage of miracles

    Because they are a sure sign of God, but we need to look at the whole context here. Firstly, what are the fruits? Are lives being changed and turned to a moral life away form sin? Secondly, nothing else even comes close to the incredible miracles God does. People in other religions can...

    Did Adam have Eternal Life Pre-Fall?

    Replying to original post: That idea doesn't work. If humans multiply and no-one dies, then the Earth will become too small to fit us really fast. Any ideas how it could work? We know from strong evidences that there have been many animals and plants who have lived and died on earth way before...

    Is Magic the Gathering an Evil Game? Can Christians Play It?

    I think LutheranGuy123 summed it up good, but I'll just add a couple of things. MTG and Yu-Gi-Oh! don't have bad intentions. Does chess have bad intentions? Chess simulates war. You want to kill your enemy's soldiers and then his king. War and killing.. that's what chess is. We're just going to...

    Is it by works or by faith?

    I see that a lot of people get one thing messed up here. Refusing to share the gospel and denying Christ are NOT the same thing at all. Denying would mean to blatantly say to people that you don't believe in Jesus. I personally don't want to share the gospel either. I haven't experienced Christ...

    Is it by works or by faith?

    1. Absolutely not biblical nor logical at all. As with many topics, Christians have different opinions on this. I may explain my stance if necessary. 2. No. 3. Yes, only faith. Works are necessary, but they will not earn us salvation. About the video you saw. We must evaluate the...

    Is Magic the Gathering an Evil Game? Can Christians Play It?

    Everything that is good, is a gift from God. MTG and yu-gi-oh are certainly awesome and good games. It's not bad because it contains concepts of bad things. Or do you say that all action movies are wrong, because they contain concepts of murdering, stealing and so on? There is real occult magic...

    What controversial beliefs do you hold?

    Got to agree on all 3 here. Great minds think alike I guess. :grin:

    Can I be saved

    You are saved. Having homosexual desires is not your fault, you haven't chosen to have these desires. Not acting on your lusts is all you can do and God certainly appreciates your attempts to stay pure. Steven Anderson seems to be simply a homophobe and does not represent Christian doctrine. I...

    Hard to breath.

    About a week ago I fainted at work while eating. Now for the last 5 days it has been hard to breath. Doctors did tests on me and the results were fine. Might be from agitation. Please pray, very unpleasant and scary.

    Smith Wigglesworth's prophecy about revival.

    Smith Wigglesworth prophesied: "Australia you have been chosen by God for a great move of the Holy Spirit. This move of God will be the greatest move of God ever known in mankind’s history and will start towards the end of the 20th century and move into the 21st century. This move of God will...

    Academic views of the bible from a christian perspective.

    For what I understand.. Generally most accepted dates for the conquest are about 1400 and 1200 BC. They fit the best with biblical chronology and/or the archaeological evidence for the cities mentioned in Joshua. No other plausible options I guess. Carbon-14 dating was used for all the cities...

    Academic views of the bible from a christian perspective.

    If I remember correctly, archeological material shows that the cities that were supposedly conquered by the israelites were inhabited or existed in different times. Like hundreds of years in difference. Also millions of jews spending 40 years in the desert left no traces. Not evidence really...

    Academic views of the bible from a christian perspective.

    To answer very shortly.. I believe the bible because of the experiences people have with God. I believe the historical events in the old testament are not depicted correctly because I've read about evidences that suggest otherwise.

    Academic views of the bible from a christian perspective.

    I'd like to get some academic christian opinions on how to interpret the bible. I believe the bible is the word of God and the purpose of it is not to give an accurate history of Israel, but to convey the truths about God, what God is like, how God acts, spiritual truths, how we should live...

    A prophetic confirmation about a relationship?

    I need some help and advice. I'd like to talk about some prophetic messages/images one of my friends got and how to understand them. My friend with some other friends went to visit a pastor after church on Sunday. They prayed together and that pastor had the gift of prophecy, so she...

    The Exodus: Fact or Fiction?

    Actually it might not be. I agree that exodus might've never happened and there are no evidence, but I'd like to share some interesting thoughts. The effects of the 10 plagues of Egypt match exactly the effects that giant volcanic eruptions have caused as seen in recent history. An amazing...

    I will pray for you to find a husband or wife!

    I hope me reading this thread is not a coincidence. :) I know God works in different ways.. some see images while praying (like you see glimpses), but I've never heard of "the gift of matchmaking" :D It seems way too weird. You said people have found a spouse soon after you have prayed for...

    Does Size matter when it comes to dating

    Very wrong to think that attractiveness shouldn't matter. It's normal that it matters.

    Post your theories.

    Two theories. First one: I think people will condemn things which are new to them, because they aren't used to them. They think they know how things are supposed to be and anything new and strange must be wrong. For instance christians used to think potatoes, drums and ties are satanic...

    Death Note movie

    Death Note is my favorite movie along with it's sequel. They're basically like one movie in two parts.
