    Cultural Appropriation - Are these people for real?

    He ran for the best of America but Americans desire more than the naturalistic optimum. There is a greed in society and business which predicates the trend beyond even his station. He (I anticipate) shall try and offer what the electorate expected but must (surely) know that this is excessive...

    Are the Ten Commandments moral laws?

    In support to this; not all had/have a suitable heart / conscience and it was/is for these that laws are written and made commandment. For others more suitable & sensitive, guilt alone may guide them closer to God.

    Do people question your faith?

    People often question the relevance of religion and wonder why some hold God nearer than others. In my experience its largely due to a lack of knowledge and exposure (missing from childhood, typically) where society has tended them toward another productive path; they are ostranged by the...

    Is it immoral to remove negative people from your life?

    Life is too short and happiness is too important to get dragged down by negative people and the works of evil. Life is a test and the darkest of sin is rife in the world. The Lord challenges us in different ways but it often involves people who don't share or accept the Christian principles and...

    Seeking Christian view on health

    This raises the question of how much we should medicate ourselves. God gives us life and takes our life, is seeking medical help for chronic illness ungodly / unethical (it's certainly biased to the wealthy and well known). Your views on what is a fair level of health care for those less...

    A Christian Police (soon-to-be) friend possibly betrays justice?

    Justice is going the way of business, slanted towards Powers not God. Injustice is the way of Godless men. Justice shall one day love the truth from within and we should rejoice in the redemptive powers of confession.

    If I believe that Jesus died for my sins and rose again am I permanently saved?

    No, I don't think so. The prophecy of the Antichrist is quite likely today although its probably going to remain a man of faith shrouded by men of disbelief and conflicting / convenients faiths. The prophecy could not have predicted the extent of the consumerism faith today, nor the advancement...

    Overcoming Lukewarmness

    If I believe that Jesus died for my sins and rose again am I permanently saved?

    Wrong although there is much in scripture that is still relevant today. We interpret to meet changes in society and in part the common consensus. There is no harm holding true to the old so long as you honoured it well.

    If I believe that Jesus died for my sins and rose again am I permanently saved?

    Faith is fuzzy today. We all have our own beliefs. Some are more true to tradition than others. Simply put we have selflessness and selfish. God shares his love with those that share in his ways and wisdom (his old ways have been honoured, and the new shall be honoured as is lïved).

    If I believe that Jesus died for my sins and rose again am I permanently saved?

    Indeed he does. God's children shall be born out of the light of love.

    SEX - Why is God so Concerned About It?

    Many are so frivolous today with our sanctity (in particular the younger generation). It is important to always remember that the closer we get to commiting to acts of love the closer we may come to God's love. The more we carelessly '[bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse]' the further we get. God realises that the young are...

    If I believe that Jesus died for my sins and rose again am I permanently saved?

    Doing the right thing is redemptive. You need to make amends / better thyself! The harder you try the closer you may come to receiving forgiveness.

    Why Were Angels Allowed to Intervene in Prediluvian Human affairs

    Sometimes it's important for God to support David in his plight for Goliath has lost his way. God need shepherd his lost sheep back to the sanctuary of salvation with a small but brave herd of lambs.

    The Fisherman and his line

    The fisherman baits his hook with its prey and shíny lures; the line's weighted but still dragged up against the adverse currents and swell. The line is held by floats both dragged & bobbing as the persistent man pulls the lot against the onslaught of waves that he breaks... ...The fisherman...
