    I rarely ask, and may be the wrong thread, but I'm asking for prayers if you could

    Hello, My name is Sebastian Otto. (I list my full name because I find the use of a full name to be more personal when praying for someone) And I'd like to reiterate by saying that i don't often ask for prayers but man I have an issue with a tooth. It is in very bad shape and it is damaged...

    How can I get in the habit of reading the Bible everyday?

    OP, Well, I suppose I could suggest that you try and read some of the shorter ones in the Old Testament. Joel is 3 chapters long. Malachi is 4 chapters long, etc. And you'll also notice within these shorts ones that some of the details of Jesus are described. Naturally since these are...

    Why pray for a miracle?

    @Heart2Soul On the whole Jew-descendant thing, see the following video. >>> And as for modern day prophets, in Acts it says, "But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons...

    Question about my marriage. Need REAL marriage advice. (Moved from Christian Advice)

    Perhaps fornication was the wrong word to describe what I meant, I'll give you that. "Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband. Let...

    Question about my marriage. Need REAL marriage advice. (Moved from Christian Advice)

    Of course you can live life and not have sex. Sexual lust is useless if you want to live a life in Christ. "But she's my wife!" Lust is lust friend. I haven't had sex in like 4 and a half years and I'm not all that worried about it. It was also with a female I wasn't romantically attached to...

    Did Jesus have a sense of humor?

    Which part was funniest talc? The savage whipping and beating Christ received? the spitting in the face? the mockery? or just the crucifixion itself? Perhaps it was the hilarious moment with the money changers where Christ was offended at how wicked men had turned his Father's house into a den...

    What did Jesus mean "If you love me you will keep my commandments?"

    "What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, And one of you say unto them, 'Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled'; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which...

    Did Jesus have a sense of humor?

    He wasn't saying it like that to be humorous Strathos. He was being ambiguous. There is a difference between ambiguity and a pun. PUN: noun - "a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or the fact that there are words that sound alike but have different meanings." verb - "make...

    Did Jesus have a sense of humor?

    "Did Jesus have a sense of humor?" I doubt it. I think he was too busy dying for our sins and saving souls to make wise cracks. It is also written in scripture that joking ought not to be done because it is inconvenient and useless. "But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it...

    Can a believer commit the unforgivable sin?

    Man those thoughts occur in my head daily. I get so frustrated by it. I'll look for ways to distract my mind just to try and prevent the thought from occurring. The words are currently going through my mind as I type this out. I've brought this up to God in prayer before and said, "Lord, you...

    Is the Devil Stronger than God?

    @Tree of Life For those that are truly with the Lord? Of course they cannot be taken. They are elect and stand apart from the crowd. But there are many who call themselves Christians that are not saved. They have become lax and comfortable in a false sense of security. "Once saved, always...

    If we are saved by faith why do some verses of the Bible seem to state that we are not?

    Faith is not what saves us, but GRACE. They are two different things. Take a look at the wonderful, yet short book of James and it is clearly shown. "What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? If a brother or sister be naked, and...

    Suing another Christian because of a fall. Should I do it or not?

    Listen brother. I really don't think it would be Christian to sue. My reason? Jesus spoke about charity and giving a lot. This also goes hand in hand with his teachings about forgiveness. On one end, if they aren't feeling generous enough to pay your bills, that is on them. And for you, it...

    I trust Jesus and have faith in Him. But I'm worried I might have the wrong theology

    I think the churches today all have a need. They need a fixer; The great physician. For any and every reading, see >> "The Most Hated of All Jesus' Teachings" and >> "The Teachings of Jesus and James, Jesus' Brother" Head to YouTube and check em' out. The channel is titled, "A Voice in the...

    What is the proper Christian response to privilege?

    Well from my perspective, as a Christian, if I were to see someone who has more material and financial success than myself, I would not admire them for it. They aren't taking those things with them when they pass through the gates (whichever gates they should pass through). If a man inherits his...

    Why Mary is Our Mother.

    @JesusLovesOurLady Catholicism is filled with pagan ideology. Prayer to Mary? Blasphemous. Calling her the mother of GOD? Even more blasphemous. This is GODDESS WORSHIP. Catholics also ask saints and angels for protection which is not good. If God wants to send an angel to help a man, that is...

    When does the kingdom come

    That's a misinterpretation. We will reign 1,000 years in heaven. THEN, after the thousand years are finished, the Devil will be loosed from his prison, tempt the nation's of the wicked one last time, and then the ultimate, final judgement known as the "second death" will take place. At which...

    Is it moral to use the end times

    The Bible does say that we ought to fear God. The reason for this being that in showing fear of punishment of sins, we will walk in His set path. However, when doing this, we will come to learn the value of this walk and what it means to be righteous. I think the reason a fear of the Lord is...

    Debating the Existence of the Pre-Trib Rapture

    Hello friend. In my opinion, pre-tribulation rapture is not supported by scripture. The two references you posted do not suggest a pre-trib rapture. At least, not when viewing them with further context. Notice, it states that the dead in Christ shall rise first. This is true. And in Revelation...
