    Devotional from John Barnett @Cesarea Aqueduct(click link for video)

    “At the instant of salvation, each of us became the Temple of God: Who begins to live within us as God the Spirit, the Comforter. That truth is the source of a lifetime of wonderful blessing, and an endless supply of Divine power in order for each of us to live the abundant life promised by...

    Understanding Adam and Eve in Calvinism

    Hello, I am have recently embraced Calvinism as true. If I was in a conversation with an Arminian/inconsistent Arminian, and they said Adam had free will in the garden. How would I respond to this? Is the understanding that humans did originally have free will, but lost it in the fall? And how...

    The Second Coming and the mention of horses

    "In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness."-Zechariah 12:4 Hello, recently I've been struggling with verses in the Old...

    I cry as I tell Jesus how much I love Him?

    Sounds like the holy spirit at work to me. Everybody is different, and responds to their relationship with God differently.

    We have to trust Jesus as Lord to be saved

    I agree with what you said! By faith we are justified, and because of that faith the holy spirit leads us to repentance. :thumbsup:

    We have to trust Jesus as Lord to be saved

    I always thought baptism was public profession of your faith. It does not save, but its a public act of obedience for the new believer. At my church its taught its like wearing a wedding ring, your still married whether you wear it or not. But by wearing it you identifying as being married. This...

    "Jesus loves me. This I know..."

    I agree completely! That was an awesome post, so true. Although I still find it amazing how some people, even when the bible seems to be VERY clear...they still find a way to come up with something so different than what it says. I guess all we can do is pray for those people.

    "Jesus loves me. This I know..."

    Amen, I always try to see if what I'm hearing matches what the bible says from the teachers I listen to. I'm open to different views, and I don't write people off as heretics if they don't believe exactly what I believe. There are those issues in the bible that are a little more confusing, and...

    "Jesus loves me. This I know..."

    Keep in mind though, that not everything that can be backed up with scripture is true. A Jehovah's Witness could sit here and with scripture try to tell you that Jesus is Michael the Archangel...and with conviction. There's people that will try to claim God is done with national Israel despite...

    "Jesus loves me. This I know..."

    I'm not going to argue about this. Maybe I said something wrong, I'm still a relatively new Christian. I think it's easy in Christianity to get bogged down in arguing with other Christians who have differing beliefs. (That's why there's so many denominations)But I think the bibles overall...

    "Jesus loves me. This I know..."

    Jesus does love us all, he just doesn't love our sin. I don't think there's anything wrong with children or adults singing about Jesus loving them. But yes, if you love God, and believe the bible...you will also repent of your sins.

    We have to trust Jesus as Lord to be saved

    "...what must I do to be saved?" They said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household." Acts 16:30-31 Repentance is a by product of faith. In other words if you really believe, you will want to repent. Our works show we genuinely believe, but its our faith in...

    Mental illness caused by fallen angels (demons)

    I think certain people are more susceptible to developing mental illness than others, but I do believe Satan is behind(at least partially) people developing mental illness. Satan would love nothing more for you to have anxiety, OCD etc. It may not be all Satan's fault that people develop certain...

    Christian music suggestions

    I'm looking for artists that make a less contemporary style gospel music. In other words, not Christian rock, Christian rap etc. I'm more interested in the kind of music that is like the hymns you would hear in church. Thank you. :thumbsup:

    KJV Only?

    I like the King James Bible, I probably read that version the most. But I also own and read the New King James, the NASB, the ESV and the NET. I think its good to have other translations to, so you can compare verses etc.
