    I'm living proof that you can lose your salvation

    alwayslearning- Please know that whatever may be going on, I will be in prayer about your situation. I know many others here will be too! :groupray: I won't profess to agree with you on being able to lose your salvation. Based on what I read of scripture, I don't think it's possible...

    Where in the Bible?

    Hi temanawa- I think johnd may have hit directly upon what the Pastor you saw on TV was discussing. I think the Pastor was making reference to Hebrews 13:5... I only know about this interesting tidbit because of the Amplified Bible and the way Hebrews 13:5 appears in it. It's probably...

    Is the Bible the Word Of God?

    I suppose the answer is, it depends on what meaning one assigns "the Word of God". You know, I thought this was a simple question until I read it. The theological implications are far more than I would ever have given it credit for. Is the Bible the Word of God? That could mean many...

    I cant belive what i have just witnessed!

    seventytwo, you're probably thinking of U-238, which does have a half-life of some 4.5 billion years. You're likely aware U-238 also makes up over 99 percent of all uranium, which is why - on average - the half life of uranium (all its isotopes) averages to 4.2 billion years. However, the...

    If there was no creation, is there an after life?

    IMO, the simple answer to that question would be no. But the more complex answer: although I don't agree with the premise of there not being a creation, I can see where that question would come up. If we were not created, what options does that leave? If one discards creation as a fact, where...

    If macro-evolution is not possible....

    The Bible being used to prove Evolution... that's a new one on me ;) ^_^ If we accept the Bible and the story of Adam, we can safely say Adam was created from dust. We can also note that's how God chose to make Adam... but nowhere does the Bible say that living matter came from non-living...

    For people who hate the Big Bang theory.

    The Big Bang theory is a fascinating one. I personally don't believe it ever happened: -No one is really sure what exploded. Some will say the Universe came from literally nothing. "Nothing" exploded? (Violates the Law of Conservation of Matter) -Retrograde motion in planets (Venus...

    time, God and creation

    From what I have heard, you're right... time is not eternal, at least based on what we have been learning over the past 20 years or so. IMO, The Bible addresses this very topic. Whether you accept the Big Bang or not (I actually don't, but... :rolleyes: ) the main verses I've seen on it are...

    A "relationship" with God?

    Greetings! You know, I'll admit that on the surface that's a pretty logical way to feel. It's hard for us as humans to accept things that aren't real. Most everything we experience is tactile... it can be seen, heard, smelled, and so on. Having a relationship with God isn't like that...

    Should a Woman Keep Her Maiden Name?

    For my wife and I it was a semi-difficult road. She initially had never given it much thought until we got engaged. It was only then she had qualms about the whole deal. I must admit, I always took for granted that whoever I married would take on my name... and I was kind of suprised at her...

    What's your song?

    What a cool topic. There's a lot of good tunes that have been posted so far! I proposed to my wife by singing along to Nat King Cole's "When I Fall In Love". It had a lot of meaning for us both, since my wife was my first girlfriend too :blush: The Extreme :cool:

    Torn between heart and head

    Hi Alicja- Your honesty is remarkable, especially in light of the fact you can display it in a a place where most of the people are likely to share views that oppose those you've espoused. Me, for instance... :rolleyes: Does God exist? That's a question that a zillion hours can be spent...

    Greetings from Arizona!

    Hi All- :wave: The first forum I ever posted in was a "computer-geek" forum... which I'd post a link to here but me being the post-deprived newbie that I am, I can't :) So why go to a computer forum three years before I even thought to post on a Christian forum, given that I'll freely...
