    Christian owning a restaurant with a bar

    People have personal responsibility that could be with alcohol, food, sex you name it. In my opinion alcohol and or other drugs are not sinful in and of themselves it is what comes out when they are used. Same with food you have to eat, but you do not have to get fat.

    What do you think of Dutch Sheets and the NAR movement?

    Dominion theology is when a certain religious group believes it is their duty to take control of a system of government creating a theocracy. This is ideal under our Lord in his return but I find it disturbing under human rule when you have thousands of different groups who believe they know the...

    Marijuana! What's your take???

    I have nothing against it. It is only illegal because of racism and it was eating at the profits of the paper business. It has many great properties besides getting "high." It is a non poisonous plant obviously created for more than just scenery. It has also been used going back to ancient...

    Dominion Theology? Kingdom living?

    Is dominion theology no different than a Christian version of sharia law? Or is the Kingdom of God something within our midst to be lived out in our lives and shared with the world?

    Why is God so hidden? Why must we seek Him to Find Him?

    I like to think of faith as knowing for certain. That's when the "magic" happens. Some say faith is the evidence of what is not seen. When faith is applied it seems to effect the natural world through the supernatural. As above so below. God possesses the greatest of faith when he speaks world's...

    "Protestant" Demonologist/Excorcist?

    I feel it can be very dangerous if one encounters real demonic possesion or dealing with entities. Don't mess around with it if you do not have to. It's not something to be envied by the Catholic or Protestant.

    "The Customer is Always Right"

    It's part of retail. But you are correct the customer is not always right. It's a good customer service line to tell newbies so they don't say something stupid and get the store sued.

    Check what? it's my opinion just like yours. I am not here to argue. If you don't want enlightenment by all means walk around in the dark. It's your issue I am content and freely will share my knowledge yet I won't always cast my pearls before swine.

    Why is God so hidden? Why must we seek Him to Find Him?

    Yea I suppose it does. It takes an amount of blind faith and trust. I get it not easy but if it is not for you than, it's not for you.

    Where did the concept of 'Celibacy' come from?

    Well in the beginning it was not from God, as God encouraged us to be fruitful and multiply. There has been celibacy far back into ancient times. Many believed in sexual transmutation. Regarding the Apostle Paul I believe he literally thoughr the return of Christ was immanent. Therfore marriage...
