    The King James Version

    I am not Baptist. However, I recently went to a fellowship of Baptist preachers with a baptist friend of mine and I have a few questions. I will only ask the one right now. I heard a Baptist preacher say that the King James Bible is the only true word of God. Is that a belief that is generally...

    Which forum is free?

    So apparently nondenominational is actually just another denomination. A thread was recently "moderated" because the conversation was not about the beliefs of the nondenominational doctrine. Though I do believe in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, it has bothered me greatly that the...

    Why would we reject grace?

    How could anyone who has ever experienced God's grace choose to reject it in favor of the Law and work? But that is exactly what happens. Not just in the early churches like Galatia and Corinth, but here in our churches today. I know a lot of people just do it in ignorance and tradition. But...

    Angelic visions relatable to the people?

    So I was talking with someone and it was brought up that in visions angels might have altered there appearances to something more relatable to the people of that time; such as angels having swords instead of guns, and chariots instead of humvees. Any ideas on whether or not this is likely?

    Was America really founded on Godly principles?

    I have recently hear a lot about how America has gotten away from the Godly principles that it was founded on. But, I have read the history books, and America was not founded on Godly principles. It was founded on greed and division.

    The missing books

    I was reading about these so called missing books of the Bible. I heard that they were not included by some christian council as divinely inspired. I decided not to base my judgement on what other men have approved. So I decided to look into these books myself. Since I could see that the 66...

    Joseph's prison

    One thing that I like about Joseph's story that I think alot of people miss is how much Potiphar trusted him. Remember that Potiphar was captian of the guard (Genesis 39:1). Joseph showed that he was a person worthy of trust and Potiphar put him in charge of his house. Obviously his wife...

    The Restoration Movement?

    I recently saw something about this restoration movement, where apparently Christians were trying to get back toward the way the early church was. I was like yea, I think the early church for the most part was the model church before traditions got into it. So I read what their statements of...

    New to this movement, please help clarify

    I was saved just over four years ago. And for the first three years of that I was completely separated from any church. It was just me, God, and his Word. So I learned from God and his word. Got out and found a nondenominational church who's focus was on showing God's love. Now I stumble upon...

    Agreement and disagreement

    I just realized how much I post on here. I have gotten to read a lot of the peoples posts on here and sometimes get into a discussion with them. One thing that I noticed is that though I may disagree with some people on certain threads, on other threads we sometimes agree. I think it is really...

    Forgiveness for past sins only.

    I keep seeing Romans 3:25 where it says,"to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past". I get the past sins part but where does the only part come from? And can we really understand how God views the word past, being that he is outside of time? I know that when Jesus said...

    What does the Bible say about getting married?

    A friend is wanting to get married and they asked me what does God require for two people to get married (he is very anti-traditional). I prayed and meditated and studied. And I came to the conclusion that all God requires is for a man and a woman to make a vow before God committing their lives...

    Should the Church celebrate Easter?

    I'm starting off by saying that I am not trying to judge or condemn anyone. If you want to celebrate the holiday, then go ahead. I myself will be participating in an easter play at my church. Not because I like easter, but because my church wants to do it and I love them. I do not think that...

    Why is the Church weak?

    When I talk about the Church, I am talking about the body of Christ. I am talking about everybody that has a relationship with Jesus, regardless of denomination or whatever else is dividing us. If you do not believe that we are weak, then I invite you to read about the early church in...
