    Gender dysphoria is a mental issue, a very misunderstood one and talking to transgender counselling can help with this if it is genuinely true. gender is a mind thing while biological sex is your physical body and at times they genuinely do not match. My daughters friend a very pretty feminine...

    Regaining faith living in modern Christianity

    This is a key thing too. Someone at church may be experiencing life as God wants, and that is correct for them. However, I dont want to be judged by God for influencing impressionable people if I feel negative or have opinions others might struggle with at church. Not wanting to spoil...

    Regaining faith living in modern Christianity

    I saw that and also all the other sins in the bible the church is silent on now. I dont hear much condemnation in the public domain by comparison with outcry about gluttony, gambling, idol worship, greed and excess, coveting, lying, dishonesty, extra marital affairs and divorce. The majority of...

    Regaining faith living in modern Christianity

    That is the issue, I encountered a lot of this stuff many years before it filtered through into my local church. This left, right, political nonsense in church now where it never used to be along with allowing influences from misleading or factually inaccurate media sources to form current...

    Regaining faith living in modern Christianity

    I'm fairly open minded and accepting of people as they are and am the opposite of a close minded conservative therefore do struggle with fundamentalism and non factual or non academically sound influences.

    Regaining faith living in modern Christianity

    I tried that but deleted that fast when a local politician used it in an effort to get elected citing Murdoch Press. It is so out of place at church and resonates with my concern of mixing church with political interests now.

    Regaining faith living in modern Christianity

    tthew 5:13. You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. Can I never be salt again? Hi, I am wanting some help with faith from loving Christians about how...

    Could this be it?

    Relax. I got a bit spooked by it at first and bought a couple of weeks groceries and and some warm clothes too. The best thing you can do right now is limit your exposure to social media and mainstream media. Stick to reading reputable Official government websites and alerts and get on with...

    Why is everybody buying up all of the Toilet Paper?

    what is the cause is mixed messages from the media creating hysteria as each media source competes with the others using exaggerated sensationalism for audience attention. Add to that a mistrust of politicians due to poor leadership and likewise vague governmental communication leading to...

    God's punishment

    A loving God let Jesus go through what he did and his Disciples be tortured and martyred so you got the message you did. Expecting a better deal out of life than what they got is a bit of wishful thinking I think. If you get a good run it is a bonus and most of us in western countries are on a...

    Why is everybody buying up all of the Toilet Paper?

    Regarding the compulsion to panic buy at present you need to understand the risks. Divide the current number of cases by near you by your area population for the percentages of people affected. For me it is 0.000002% of the population. 80% will have mild symptoms and a tiny fraction of people...

It has the same statistics as the common flu regarding mortality and recovery. the best defence against it is having your bodies immunities in peak condition. Anxiety and stress lower your immunities and make it easier to catch it...

    Just because a psychologist gives it a name

    Theres a wonderful resource called Google Scholar https://scholar.google.com where you can look up peer reviewed research and information from academics and scholars and expect a bit of truth in it. I think half of the websites on the net get their information off the back of a breakfast cereal...

    Re this addressing greed idolatry and sex sin.. Ezekiel 16 35 “‘Therefore, you prostitute, hear the word of the Lord! 36 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because you poured out your lust and exposed your naked body in your promiscuity with your lovers, and because of all your detestable...

    Why is it ok to be a fat pastor but not a gay pastor?

    Lol, shh you'll spoil a good narrative. A large portion of the population are overweight or obese these days and only 2% are gay. Its easy not to be a gay sinner but gluttony, excess, greed and not giving to the poor and needy now that's Godliness..
