A book you or someone else might be interested in is Brennan Manning's The Ragamuffin Gospel. It dwells on how God loves us as we are. Rich Mullins is a Christian musical artist who loved Native Americans enough to go live on their reservation with them when he could have lived instead...

You don’t need to feel like you must watch any of these videos, but sometimes when we’ve been in bad company (like reading bigotry) it can be good to find some better sources. There are many famous Christians who are not white, or who have written a song or other things that are helpful about...

You’ve gotten some intelligent responses about this person being a fruitcake and to pay no mind to him. This is insightful and wise advice. I think there are many other people wondering the same thing you did after reading what he says, and the heartening thing is you are getting into...

Some basics on the deceitfully-named Christian Identity movement: Christian Identity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Swift pushed a white supremacist hate group philosophy: Aryan Nations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This article shows some connection with the ideals of Hitler's...

Agnostic drawn to Christianity All, I’ve been an agnostic all my life. For the most part, I’ve always had respect for Christianity, as well as a curiosity for it. This has been constant with me since I was a little boy. That said, I’ve never made that next step, always straddling the...

The idea that God discriminates based on color is so ridiculous you really need not worry about it. When the Bible says "God is no respecter of persons", it means He doesn't give preferential,, unfair treatment. Why would and how could God love a person of color any more or less than a white...

I think Jesus will forgive you. Also understand there is a difference between being tempted to commit a sin, and actually committing a sin. I know you say you are interested in this issue about taking the mark of the Beast, and the rise of the AntiChrist, but sometimes people overemphasize...

I am not surprised at all. Demons are involved, is the Pentecostal belief. You can learn more about it in deliverance ministry books and books on prayer. "I Give You Authority" is a good one. It's by Charles Kraft, who is in deliverance ministry and has many good materials. Another is "Rules...

In Post #206 I was quoted by circuitrider. I had said [to Albion] “I didn’t say groups related to freemasonry are freemason. I distinguished between them. I encourage you to go back and read my response to your question. Circuitrider, responded saying it was doublespeak.” Here is my...

I totally agree. People are allowed to come to this area of the site with struggles, that is what this is for. This is not the place for angry arguments against people who are in pain. When someone has met Christians who have wounded them deeply so that even years later there is a negative...

I am not retreating. If you re-read the Post (#108, also #107 and #106) it may help. My post referred to a site that appears to view any pyramid, for example, as automatically being evil. I have, as another example, even read a claim that the Divine Mercy Image (Catholic) is a pyramid so is...

A strange comment considering you spend, I believe, more time arguing for freemasonry than almost anyone on this site does against it. Or isn't the other side allowed to speak without being accused of "insulting Christian men"? There are many Christian men who have left freemasonry, do you...

In Post 165, Albion responded to my Post #164 : Ellwood3 (me) had said (I am quoting a larger part of it than what Albion used about groups related to freemasonry): Here is the definition of the word "occult": Occult | Define Occult at Dictionary.com As a group that has secrets...

Ellwood3 said (post #143): The groups that have taken elements from Masonry are related in the same way borrowing (or stealing) blue paint and using it still makes the thing painted blue, even though the theft wasn't authorized. Albion responded (post #150): In other words, they're...

In Post #162 Albion responded to my Post #159 : Ellwood3 (me) had said: Albert Pike, along with Albert Mackey and Manly P. Hall, is among the foremost philosophers of Masonry. Albion wrote: But they only speak for themselves. This is important in Masonry--that each man...

If a person has a leech on them, who is for that person, those who want the leech removed, or those who want the leech left in place? (Assume we’re dealing with a non-medicinal leech here). Note also that this thread is not about you, personally, Albion. It is about the Masonic Concept of...

God bless you. I feel for you. I think you have treated her with kindness.

Atheism Atheism promotes a person’s intellect to be a guide, then makes reference to that guide for its evidence that the guide is right. Atheists can be as self-righteous as the most frustrating kind of Evangelicals. Like Evangelicals, they have a gospel to promote. That boils down to “I...

Again, I'm not writing this to attack you. You can believe whatever you want. You can also waste a lot of time going down some bad alleys into strange philosophies too. Here is something on Epicureanism. Epicureanism In your Post #14 you wrote this: "A happy and eternal being has no...
