    Why all the debate? We don't have time for it

    Seriously, why are you wasting time debating pieces of theology when the world is rotting with wickedness? We all have the same understanding of Jesus being our Savior and of being good. So why do we fight with each other over incidentals? The time is now extremely short and we should be working...

    Give up God for Mormonism?

    If you believe in a resurrected Jesus who never died again after his resurrection, then you most assuredly believe in a god that has a body. AMEN!

    Why do Gods need glorified bodies and wives?

    Wait a minute, so Christians are saying that a being called the Father put Jesus into Mary's womb so that he was born normally and had a body, that he lived for 33 years in a body, that he died and became a spirit for 3 days while his body laid in a tomb, and then he was resurrected to a...

    How is this not adultery?

    First, I am sorry to hear this. He will be accountable to God for his breaking your heart. Second, you cannot prove polygamy wrong with the Bible because the Bible was written by a culture that practiced polygamy. They did it all the time and great men of God, like Abraham and Jacob were...

    Had a dream about Satan, looking for some answers.

    Very interesting dream, thank you for sharing! A few thoughts came to my mind as I read and visualized your dream. Since you asked for some thoughts about it, here we go. First, I would say that you learned how subtle Satan can be. He uses tricks and half-truths to try and get his way. He...

    "Dangerous" to read other holy books?

    If Christians want to be blind Neanderthals they only read the Bible. If you want to be educated and understand the world you live in, then you will read other books. There is truth to be found everywhere, you just have to filter through a lot!

    Why does Mormonism want to be Associated with Christianity?

    You're comparing Mormon Christian theology to 3rd/4th Century Roman Christian theology. What you need to do is compare both of these theologies to the theology that Jesus and His Apostles taught before it was corrupted, then you'll find your answer. Cheers!

    Just how mysterious IS the Trinity?

    Man-made doctrines are always a little crazy. When no one can understand them, they say "oh well it's just a big mystery." But blessed be the word of God as found in the Bible! The Godhead is easy to understand and to have eternal life is to know them! My advice, stick to the good book and...

    How do you like to dress for church?

    Going to spend time with the Lord, I dress up! It is a special occasion. Sometimes people razz me about it, saying that the Lord accepts anyone no matter how they dress. Of course He does, but does that mean I should not put forth any effort when He has blessed me with nice things? Usually the...

    Facebook does not enforce moral standards

    A video on Facebook came across my page that was shared by one of my "friends" and it was nasty! It was a video of a naked woman riding around on a scooter with a [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse] visibly going in and out of her while she screamed in [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse]. Oh, with an American flag attached to it. Anyway, I reported the...

    Casual Drinking

    There is nothing wrong with casual drinking, but it is like playing with fire. It's so easy to go beyond causal and make a habit out of it. What concerns me is your husband has beer cans in the back of his truck? Where is he drinking? The scary thing is, at some point he will drink too much and...

    Saved by all three things...

    It's simple. If you want to be saved, you have to be what a saved being is. If you want to live where they live and be as they are, then you must become as one of them. How do you do this? You follow the great prototype, Jesus Christ. You have faith, you keep the commandments, you make your life...

    The Book of Mormon as inspired fiction

    To a non-Christian, both the Bible and the Book of Mormon are fiction. To a Mormon they are both true. To a Christian one is true and the other is fiction. Dante's writings are fiction. So what does it matter. Things that can inspire and uplift people are good. I've read all these things and I...

    Did Luke and Paul think their writings were scripture?

    You're sort of asking if Luke or Paul were writing to a future audience, as if they would know that 1000 or 2000 years later people would be reading and get inspired. They most certainly were not. They were writing letters to specific groups of people in their day. Think about when you write a...

    Why do Christians get evasive, defensive or angry when faced with difficult questions

    Because some Christians have a very narrow view and when challenged it upsets them. Most religions feel they have all the answers and when asked hard questions they do two things, they say it is just faith, or they get upset and say you must be crazy for not believing.

    For the people who lurk.

    How can someone expect to recover being told that there is no hope? I WAS a real alcoholic - mass consumption for 8 years - cost me a lot in my life. I completely and absolutely recovered because I learned that I do have power over that part of my brain that craved the drug. That part wasn't me...
