Read and agree

Chris never wanting to see Freddy EVER again is a form of corruption (of the mind). I know Paul said "this corruption (the body) puts on incorruption ... but I think that also applies to the mind/heart of the individual. What I'm getting at, is at the gathering unto our Lord in the air, we (ie...

This question is one that been used by atheists and others to try and prove that God can not exist, because how can such a loving God predestine some people to a wonderful eternal life in Heaven and predestine others to forever punishment in Hell. The question needs to be asked in simple words...

No one has brought up this point .... Why did you only figure in the saved people from the time of Christ/the church to the present? What about all the saved people from Adam up to the time of Christ/the church? When Jesus resurrected, saints were resurrected with Him. I honestly have no idea...

In this day and age, you have to have discernment. You can not give to street beggars (legit or professional cons) or to charitable organizations on a whim, in the moment, just because they happen to tug at your heart-strings. You have to have firm convictions about to whom you give charity...

I definitely agree and have read the Statement of Purpose. What a great idea!

He's been a Methodist pastor in the region for a decade or more, so his wife has been a doctor at the same practice for just as long. He studied at Duke University ... they are a big Methodist pastor "creator" afaik. He often goes there to either teach a single class (not a professor), or to...

I'm still reading this thread, but wanted to comment on the above. I'm a member of a Methodist church with a congregation of about 200 in a town of about 2,200 people, in a county of about 25,000 people here in the South. The pastor is paid right around $65,000/yr. That's three times more than...

Our Methodist Pastor has been plugging this book for the last 4 or so years. I won't read it or watch the movie mainly because it has God as a woman. I know enough of the story from conversations to know what the author was trying to do with how he made the characters, but it's still blasphemy...

I believe that when we die, we are "asleep" in the grave until the Resurrection (Rapture, Caught Up, 2nd Coming, etc etc). I'm not very good at reciting verses, but several of them that support the dead being asleep have been mentioned. I also believe that Paul stated in one of his letters that...

How did you come to that age of the Universe as being 4.54 billion years old? And yes, the Earth is younger than the Universe. The Universe is the Heaven of God ... I think.

I'm only on page 5 of this lengthy, but enlightening thread. But I needed to ask your opinion on something (and of anyone else who would like to chime in) ... If childbearing is held in such high esteem in God's eye ... then what of women like myself who physically can not have children? (And...

I agree with the one person who said the Bible said the Earth was created in 6 days (and God rested on the 7th). There is no mention of when the universe was created, how old it was, etc. Folks regularly mix the two up and say ... well, if the Earth is only 6,000 years old, then why is the...

I hope this is ok to post (no copyright issues), but I feel it may help our new member find some comfort in his/her situation. This is January 4th entry in Sarah Young's Jesus Calling devotional. I read it all last year, and have started it over again this year. I want you to learn a new...

Amen to that. I'm .... speechless.

So that I may understand the discussion ... what is TULIP?

Thanks so much =) I have the book on my Amazon wish list. Might have to wait a month or two, too many bills coming up at the moment and have taken too many days off sick, so funds are a tad low at the moment.

Yeah, I'll definitely have to go back and re-read. It's been too long and have too many other things running through my head. I read and understand well ... but have the worst time regurgitating facts when I need to. Grrrr. Plus, I think all this coughing has scrambled the brains ... literally.

To be upfront, it has been many moons since I last dug into the End Time topic as I've been studying up on other topics since. But, I believe the 7 vials/bowels happen at the 7 trumpet and that is God's Wrath. It's been stated in Scripture that the saints are not appointed to wrath but we are to...

I have added that book to the list of ones I want to get. Thanks for the recommendation! And thank you for your prayer. My battered and bruised chest can use all the help it can get. hehe Last thought. I know there are a million threads on numerous boards about the Rapture ... post, pre, mid...
