    Singe, needs encourgment....

    You didnt miss anything in high school btw; just look forward, dont look back. Youve got plenty of time to find the right girl and settle down. It's most likely not anything wrong you've done...just be patient because God's timing is perfect. If you let God guide your steps, and listen to his...

    What does the Church teach about masturbation?

    Ive always thought of it as walking a fine line of conviction; one step in the wrong direction and you can feel convicted. Which, if a person does feel convicted (Ie guilty), I suppose it is wrong for them-even though other people may not feel the same conviction and guilt. James 4:17 is what...

    Genuine Friendship

    Hey, im going on 20 in a few months. I go to a pentecostal church that a couple friends introduced me to, and since then I have been reading the word of God and praying a lot more outside of church. I focus my readings in the new testament as there is a lot to be learned from Jesus and the...

    What does the Church teach about masturbation?

    It doesnt. The verse is Gen 38:8-9. He wasnt killed for simply pulling out, but for not wanting to pass on his blood through his dead brother's wife, he was the next of kin (it was an obligation). It was also rebellion.

    What's your Theology?

    So slavery, in any and EVERY circumstance, is immoral? Keep in mind slavery in the Bible was not linked to racism. It was similar to military service or doing time in prison, legally bound to an employer or institution and subject to discipline if caught in immoral acts. Would you say that a man...

    What's your Theology?

    To answer your second arguement, the old testament of the Bible was written in Hebrew and the new testament in Greek. If you are a student of a foreign language than you can fully understand that translating any language into another language is oftentimes difficult, as some phrases or words do...

    What you can know about your future spouse already

    I liked the video, it is very positive about the whole situation, despite the reality that virginity is a rarity in today's society. Ive had one person (outside of my family) in my entire life up until this point that has encouraged me to save sex for marriage.

    Just the Facts Please

    I thought no one would ask. There is symbolism to it, but I wont get into that. The main reason why I use it is because it was a faux fraternity type group that me and a buddy of mine fabricated (it was not real). In a way it was an inside joke. We had our laughs and I kept the name as it does...

    Is the AK-47 a better rifle than the M-4 and M-16?

    If your asking for personal opinion, and not facts or something indepth like a ballistics test...I dont think *many* people here have shot an ak47 and m16 AT human targets, carried their weapons IN country (ie. sand, mud, dusty conditions, increased chances of jamming) to really draw their own...

    I have anger issues and need help

    Unfortunately, the last statement you made is controversial. Look at the armed forces of the United States? Rising suicide rates in the Army and Marine Corps-the problem you ask? Being too bold/scared/what have you to ask for help...nuff said. I heavily disagree with looking for understanding...

    Visits from departed loved Ones

    Hmm, yea that makes sense. The church does over-reach on some points; the point you brought up SHOULD be based on a person's own convictions-not the church's say-so. I kno there is a scripture to back that up (off topic)...but you are right in saying that legalism that is non-scriptural is very...

    Visits from departed loved Ones

    Feel free to enlighten me. You must have had a different western civ textbook in college...And what do you think causes this reactionism to Catholics? Why is it viewed as "Catholic"?

    Visits from departed loved Ones

    Pardon me for saying, but the church you are referring to was not the Body of Christ. It was an institution based on many human-derived legalistic approaches. It did not follow the scriptures, but rather formed it's own rules and ideas according to man (IE. Mass, Confession, excorcism...
