There's a list of them in 1 Cor. 12, all believers are supposed to have one, whats yours?

I got a really bad diagnosis from an oncologist, he is talking a year. Now I've been a Christian since my teens, so death is a one way ticket home when you think about it. So I started thinking about something I really had not thought of before. What is heaven like? Harps, clouds, angels, loved...

A federal judge who struck down Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban last year is hearing arguments about a new law that puts the ban even earlier. The law would prohibit most abortions once a fetal heartbeat can be detected, at about six weeks, when many women may not know they’re pregnant...

While I believe in old school Protestant Reformation theology, I have some rather off the beaten path ideas. Nothing all the serious that would get into doctrine or theology really just a view of Scriptures that I think have yielded some unique interpretations. For example, I've studied the Song...

House Democrats issued subpoenas Friday for President Donald Trump's tax records, escalating a fight that is likely to end up in court. Ways and Means Chairman Richard Neal (D-Mass.), who is spearheading the effort, delivered formal demands for the filings to both Treasury Secretary Steven...

I really didn't like the early seasons but last season this show got really good. Just watch the epic battle scene in episode 3, blew me away. So is anyone else watching Game of Thrones?

Yea I know it's early but he is way ahead of other Democrats and sizing up to be formidable against a sitting President. General Election: Trump vs. Biden Your thoughts?

Let's start off with an exposition. In Gen. 1 we have the description of creation week. God ‘created’ (H1254 בָּרָא bara'), the word translated ‘created’ is used once of the origin of the universe (Gen. 1:1), once in regards to life in general (Gen. 1:21) and three times to speak of the origin...

"I appeal to you to constantly bear in mind that not with politicians not with presidents not with office seekers but with you is the question: Shall the Union and shall the liberties of this country be preserved to the latest generations?" (Abraham Lincoln Feb 11 1861) Let me start by saying...

Senator Michael Bennet responds to Mitch McConnell's op-ed in which the Senate Majority Leader complained about Democrats blocking Donald Trump's cabinet appointments. After suffering eight years of Mitch McConnell and Republicans' antics in the Senate (doing everything possible to obstruct...

Louis Farrakhan recently claimed to be Jesus, no big deal, he can claim to be the Easter Bunny for all I care. In a recent conversation I learned that his sect of Islam (if they really are Muslim) believes something rather strange about the white race: Elijah Muhammad also asserted that some of...

What follows is not an invitation to a debate, I understand there are points of controversy here and there. I've just spent a great deal of time exploring systematic theology, trying to find one that is compatible with my belief system. This is a brief outline of the five points of Calvinism...

I've actually spent a great deal of time on the book of Romans, but there is a section in the chapter that is of special interest. Anytime I look at a translation I haven't seen before, I look up this verse: By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer...

Atonement/Reconciliation (G2643 καταλλαγή katallagē) - 1. exchange; of the business of money-changers, exchanging equivalent values (Aristotle, others). (Thayer’s Lexicon) What follows is an invitation to study imputation and atonement as a formal doctrine. I'm going to offer a few choice...

Perhaps there is someone on here who is following the progress of Trump's signature promise of a wall along the boarder. We know he has over a billion dollars requisitioned from the Congress and apparently by declaring it an emergency he can free up billions more. What I'm starting to wonder is...

I'm especially interested in what you have learned from studying the passage. Any insights, word searches, commentaries and of course, personal meaning. This is a very general question, feel free to respond as you see fit. I've just noticed most Christians and even some unbelievers, have a...

I happened to catch U.S. Customs & Border Protection (CBP) Commissioner Kevin McAleenan, testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee on human smuggling at the U.S.-Mexico border. He made this startling statement: CBP had apprehended more than 76,000 migrants as they crossed the southern...

Now don't go looking it up, that's cheating. All direction in the prophets is from Jerusalem. So who would be the kings of the east? Apparently they take a journey across the Euphrates, meet the armies of the Antuchrist, fighting a short battle with Christ. It's been seven years of hell running...

Of course, McConnell is going to block it: Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell already bluntly stated, “That’s not going to go anywhere.” (Democrats will take up voting rights, campaign finance reform, and a lobbying crackdown — all in their first bill of the year. Vox) No it won't get...

If you ever wanted to put the FBI our of business, one cheap and cheerful way to do that is to organize a Federal government shutdown that went on for a really long period of times. (Rachel Maddow Show. MSNBC News 1/21/19) The video simply leads with this statement and goes off into financial...
