    How important is God's and Messiah's names?

    I tried it with the word "infrastructure" and it didn't work. It just sounded like "hhhhhhhhhhhhhhh". ;)

    More Time

    That was like one of the best posts in the World, ever.

    A lack of confidence??

    Right on, man! And thanks. I deserve to be able to work confidently and productively at what I'm good at, and God deserves me to be able to use my talents to glorify Him! The current trend where a lot of contemporary Christian artists just sound like watered-down versions of already-existing...

    A lack of confidence??

    Thankyou. :) I experience a lot of serious difficulties with what should be ordinary, easy aspects of life due to my having gone for over 30 years without anyone realising I have some sort of autism spectrum disorder until quite recently. I think it's because I'm one of those people who grew up...

    A lack of confidence??

    Pray for me to stop thinking that my problems and concerns are too trivial for anyone to pray about for me. It's like I come to this section to ask for help but then I see other people's ultra-serious prayer requests and it kind of puts my nose out of joint because I feel like their needs...

    Problems understanding the Trinity

    Someone else has probably posted something like this already (although I couldn't be bothered reading every single post in the thread to find out) but just in case they haven't, or just in case it's too difficult to sift through the pages to find it...

    Why are there so many threads about the Catholic Church and what's good about it?

    Don't take this the wrong way but you might wanna get off your high horse mate 'cause you're taking me out of context. :P I love people, I just don't believe I should force myself to see everything their way or only say what they want to hear or be as "witty" or "serious" or whatever as they...

    Why are there so many threads about the Catholic Church and what's good about it?

    Yeah true but I'm still happy with it and that's good enough for me since I'm easy to please and have no motive for trying to empathise with anyone who doesn't like it. :D

    New Thelemite in your neighborhood (a black sheep)

    Thelema's founder is Aleister Crowley. That says it all. :P But welcome anyway! :wave:

    Is posttrib rapture just?

    "God promised that the days would be cut short for the elect (Matt 24:22)." A decision which has less to do with how "special" the elect are and more to do with not wanting the entire human race to die. "This means the days would be very terrible. Worse than anything in history. The posttrib...

    Why are there so many threads about the Catholic Church and what's good about it?

    It has its flaws, and so do other churches. It's just that the Catholic ones stand out more 'cause of its sheer size as an institution. Also, where the light is brighter the shadows will be darker. :) I like the fact that they are very charitable, that fact they are learning to admit that...

    Pray I find religion

    Except a wilfully hardened heart. :P And besides, anyone who decides that they're only going to follow God if He answers their prayers when they want them answered has the wrong idea of what He is about. It's not supposed to be about Him serving you, it's supposed to be about you serving Him. If...

    Why do God allow the innocent to suffer?

    Satan is the god of this world and pretty much owns everyone and everything in it unless they voluntarily choose to follow the REAL God, Who is our God. Our God, the one TRUE proper God with a capital G who is the Father, Son and Holy Ghost/Spirit, is going to claim it back and fix everything...

    If I live in an area where I cannot join an Eastern Orthodox church...

    I got your PM and appreciated it very much but I couldn't reply because my post count was too low. But I should be able to reply soon. I can't promise that you'll get the response you want, but to be fair it's not necessarily going to be the response I'll want to give either. Life has a way of...

    If I live in an area where I cannot join an Eastern Orthodox church...

    Very good point. If I can't get to one I can probably get to the other. But if worse comes to worst and I can't get to either then I'm willing to settle for Roman Catholicism even though I don't buy into the whole Papal Infallibility thing. But whatever I do, the further it is from Protestantism...

    Prayer for Stephen Hawking

    Dear God, please consider doing something to humble Stephen Hawking, make him into a follower of Yours and turn him into a really dedicated Christian apologist or something along those lines. Amen. :)

    If I live in an area where I cannot join an Eastern Orthodox church...

    Sorry, not saying that they were actually being elitist, just that it could come off that way. I definitely agree it's not a cheap religion. I live a few hundred km south of you.
