    The Word of God.

    When thinking of the word of God, why just the 66 books? I personally see the word of God as what Jesus stood for. Loving your enemies, turning the other cheek, looking after the orphans and widows, etc. If a buddist finds a way to love his enemy, I see this as the word of God, even though...

    Prayer.

    I have prayed many times. I was considerd a "prayer warrior" a few years ago. I was deeply into it. But the results are never reliable. I'd pray for safety over an activity, yet I or someone else would become injured. I would pray for healing of someone in our church, yet he passed away a...

    Prayer.

    As a liberal Christian, prayer is not a big importance to me. I pray very little actually. It's usually of thanks when it is a prayer. I will say to other Christian friends that "I am praying for you", because this translates that, I am thinking of you and care about you. I am still...

    The faith of an Agnostic

    I think RLP is an agnostic christian. Taken from RLP's life story: "I learned that it doesn’t matter in the least that I be convinced of God’s existence. Whether or not God exists is none of my business, really. What do I know of existence? I don’t even know how the VCR works."

    Views on Prophecy

    I've attended a Baptist church as well. Baptist don't practice such things like prophecy, tounges, etc. The chairismatic church's I have gone to, do practice these things. The prophecy that I have experianced was more like "advice" or the spirit speaking through one, for the church. It...

    Liberalism

    This is a good place to come and be exposed to other views. Look at new ideas with an open mind and understanding. Way cool about you forming your views, keep it up and don't always take someones word for it. Look into what you don't understand and research on your own also.

    Back to Acts

    I don't think it's a bad thing to have big churches. It's how we do it in this day and age. But the small "community" church that you're speaking of is still relevant in big churchs. I go to a big church but the REAL church happens with my 5-10 friends that I met through the big church.

    Liberal VS Christian

    I'm a christian and am called a democrat by others. I personally, am beginning to see that the principles democrats have, fall in line with what I belive Christ's principles were. So, there are many christian liberals and democrats.

    Priorities

    I don't feel that evangelizing should CONSTANTLY be on our minds. Or that our number one goal each day is to speak to someone about Christ. I feel that if that is our mindset, we tend to loose the picture and it becomes a to-do list or a project. And this is life, not a project. God has...

    In what ways are you a liberal Christian ?

    I tend to think more liberal in most aspects. Although growing up in a conservative baptist church I've turned out to be different from most there. But like mpshiel, I feel that being in a conservative church of people that think differantly than me has been a good thing and still is a good...
