    I'm tired of being told what to do

    I don't think I can or want to accept the opinion of ministries or pastors anymore. I can't stand it when somebody tells me what to do and what not to do especially when it's not even sure they really are right. It's often said christianity isn't about rules but that'e exactly what it is. Rules...

    Reigning over the flesh

    What do you think are the "lusts of the flesh"? Does this mean that as a christian you basically have to torture yourself and deny yourself everything which the body wants? For example let's say it's a totally hot day and you stand there before a fan and the body says "This feels so good" then...

    Is getting totally angry already a sin?

    I don't know about you, but sometimes it just happens that I argue with somebody on the internet and then this person says something which totally upsets me and then it's like I get so angry that I wish I could hurt this person. But it's really like I can't do anything against it. I know that's...

    Lust: Is it possible to control all your thoughts?

    I'm getting really angry when I think about how some women dress especially when it's summer. They walk around with totally tight clothes and sometimes it doesn't even look good or suit them but nevertheless they still have to force themselves into their tight jeans and whatever they wear. This...

    Is turning from sin a requirement of getting saved?

    Many preach things like if you want to get saved you need to stop sinning or you need to turn from your sins. This strongly sounds like salvation depends on not sinning anymore and that would mean it depends on our performance. I think this is problematic. And then I also heard the argument...

    What if a woman steals a man's virginity?

    In the old testament it says if a man has sex with a virgin then he has to marry her. Now what if it's the other way around? What if a woman who is not a virgin had sex with a man who is a virgin then would she have to marry him or would he have to marry her or does this only work when both are...

    Is it legitimate to call fire down from heaven like Elijah did?

    Let's say in your street there are some unrepentant atheists or even worse atheistic God mockers then would it be okay to call fire down from heaven so that they including their entire belongings are consumed by fire? Actually this would create a lot of fear in the community and maybe some...

    Relationship with God: What's realistic and what's hyper emotional nonsense?

    Many christians talk about them having a "relationship" with God and how they "know" God. I ask myself are these people really telling the truth or are they either lying or simply imagining things? The danger is that if someone is a christian and does not have any such experiences and then...

    What is sex good for?

    I just had some questions come up and I thought it would make sense to make another poll with different answers. Basically there is the argument which goes like God made sex for marriage and this means that any sexual activities outside of marriage, including masturbation, which do not "please"...

    Is getting plastic surgery a sin?

    I heard from a pastor once that if you get your nose corrected you criticize God because God made you this way. This argument makes no sense to me at all it's totally silly imo. This is like saying if siamese twins want to get separated they critize God or if a child without legs wants to get...

    Is Using a Fleshlight a Sin? Can Christains Use Sex Toys?

    Hi there, I've been browsing the forum and reading some heated discussions about wether masturbation is allowed or not. I wonder if masturbation is allowed and one's a single christian and let's say that normal masturbation became too boring over the years then would it be allowed for female...
