Ok, so since this is just a "Bucket List" I will list all the things we have talked about doing. Mind you this is not a "must get done before we die" list: -Circumnavigate the world in 12 months on 75' Scooner -Thru-hike the Appalachain Trail (North to South) -Visit Paris and dine atop the...

It is not up to you to see these works. It's Gods place. And I am sure you do some things often that you don't even realize are fruits of the Spirit. You ever hold a door for someone? Did you do it because you wanted to look at them as they pass or because in your heart you just knew it was...

Exactly. Thank you Mayzoo.

No one can say, with honesty,that they don't have anything before God ever. So your questino is, does that damn us all to hell? Not me my friend! I am saved by grace through faith plus nothing. Grace = Unmeritted favor. aka recieving something good you do not deserve! Faith = Trusting in...

Stop it you two! First off, you're highjacking this thread for your own personal spat. Second, this is not how christian brothers should discuss things. If you have differing opinions, converse in a kind and loving manner. *chefjason steps off soap box* To address the OP, it does seem to...

How sad. All I have to say is that I attend a baptist church. I don't even really know that much about my denomination. :eek: I can't wait to see what some of the members respond here.

Crazy thing is, those things that make us cringe about our spouses at times would be the things we missed the most if God took them home. My Mother-In-Law and I have had that conversation before. My F.I.L. passed away 4 years ago and she still says that sometimes she will take the top off the...

Thank you brother. Healing is happening as we speak. But I need A LOT more.

Blueforest, would you define "willful and consistent rebellion" as sin? I'll assume your asnwer is "yes" since you obviously have a grasp on the gospel. How much sin did Christ die for? I'll assume you say "all", again because of your grasp. When God turned His back on Jesus, why did He do...

Wisest words ever spoken. My wife and I have talked for hours on end these last few days and I can honestly say I have never felt closer to her or GOD. Talk to Him and then talk to him. It's the cure for all that ails you.

Thank you brother. I cannot believe how the Lord has moved in my life. It brings tears to my eyes to realize all the wrongs I have done and then to see that I am still forgiven, by both God and my wife. I will remember you in prayer and I pray that your marriage continues to heal and grow closer...

I hate that I keep posting to threads like this and saying, "take it from a man with experience in this", but I also praise God that I can pass on what He has blessed me with. Sooo..... Take it from a man with experience in this matter, he is in trouble. inappropriate content is not the issue. Lust of the...

This may sound kinda out of left feild, but, have you concidered be might have something on his breath he doesn't want you to smell? I say this because I exibited the same behaviors to my wife when I was sneaking a smoke now and then. Like I said, may sound kinda strange, but you could always...

The "way" to Heaven. It is singular. He was making the statement that He is God and therefore has the power to wash away sins. Just like a maze. There is only ONE WAY to make it through. There are many paths, but only one of them leads to the exit.

I do not want to offend anyone or start any kind of debate, so please, if what I say offends you, don't take it personally. I have read most of the post in this thread and thus far I have not seen an answer for this young man that he has not either already concidered or attempted. Job made a...

Three days ago I was certain my marriage was over. I believed I had driven the final nail in the coffin. But today, there is light. Light shining in from the Lord above. My wife and I spoke for a constant 5 hours this morning. We told each other things that we had kept to ourselves for 18...

That's quite alright. Didn't mean to highjack your thread. I voted. Carry on.

thank you. I genuinely appreciate all the prayers for her.

It is true that in the very modern society Creationsim is becoming less and less prevalent. But concidering the evolution THEORY of mankind is only about 150 years old and did not take a strong hold until some 50-75 years ago, I would hesitate to call Creationism and unconventional belief.

How sad. It's terrible that some Christians display so much judgement and hypocracy to make one feel liberated by not being associated with them anymore. And I'm sure you will hear this more than once Dan, just because you give up on Him, doesn't mean He gives up on you.
