    You need to have a plant-based diet to be saved?

    I can see where someone would say that a plant based diet would keep you healthier and give you a longer life. After all, we - and all creation - were designed to be vegetarian. It wasn't until after the flood that the people of God were given permission to eat meat. Scientific research on...

    Reevaluating the term Sola Scriptura (Bible alone + God giving understanding on it is the truth).

    Only since 1826. Prior to that, many Bibles had more. Prior to around 1600 all Bibles had more.

    From a moral-historical perspective, this crisis is worse than you realize

    Most of the people who would claim the former would also claim the latter; only political expediency is causing them to hold their tongues. But give it time.

    Seattle Priest Blesses man for his upcoming suicide

    I have to say that when I went looking for historic Christianity, things like this were one of the reasons why Roman Catholicism didn't make the list of churches I decided to investigate.

    Kenneth Cox Ministries

    Hardly. Granted he has taken a pretty big baseball bat to the Word of Faith movement....but this is an unfair characterization of his ministry.

    Seattle Priest Blesses man for his upcoming suicide

    This. Having those kids in that picture involved in this atrocity was a "days of Noah" abomination.

    prayer request

    Yeah, you don't want to do that. Surely there are other churches or bible studies in your area that you can attend?

    How do I honor my parents?

    "...Better is a neighbor nearby than a brother far away." Proverbs 27:10 "‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’?" Matthew 19:5 The story of the prodigal. We have to deal with the world as it is, not as we wish...

    Do you believe all young children, 5yo or younger (not infants) will be saved?

    Anyone who believes that a 2, 3, 4, or 5 year old is incapable of sin has never had one.

    "The Family" on Netflix...what's your thoughts?

    It's Netflix. Nothing good comes out of Netflix.

    Professing Christians who have a "holier than thou" attitude are not saved

    Don't judge usually really means don't judge what I would prefer not to have judged when you peel back the layers of the onion. Hmm. You realize that you can buy a two year old Mercedes for quite a bit less than a new Buick, right? Sounds like you've made a judgement based on a particular...

    Professing Christians who have a "holier than thou" attitude are not saved

    I've never been to a pentecostal or charismatic church... But then again I've also never seen a Christian write a long diatribe about how they are so much better than everyone else.

    Kentucky Supreme Court to hear case on Christian’s refusal to make LGBT pride shirts

    So this is objectively false. The God of Christianity has been described in this way for over a millenium and a half: "We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the...

    Trump orders U.S. companies to "start looking for alternatives" to China

    The people who are whining fall into two categories: (1) Businesses who are trying to maximize short term profits by exploiting Chinese labor rates. (2) Political operatives who look at the dictatorial one party Chinese model of state-capitalism with admiration and seek to move the United...

    God Is Not Love

    God Is Not Love [A brilliant article, I'd highly recommend clicking the link and reading the whole thing.] "If we accept the way that the modern world defines "love", then we would have to conclude that God is not love. God is holy. He is a consuming fire. He is the way, the truth, and the...

    Blocked on Social Media by Fellow Bible Study Members

    Render unto Casear what is Casear's...render unto God what is God's. Sounds like a bible study that is booting Trump supporters missed that part of the scriptures. Then again, judging by such behavior, I'd suspect there are a whole lot of other scriptures that they're intentionally missing as...

    Since when did freedom of Christian religion become freedom of religion?

    To be quite blunt, the people who revolted against England and wrote the constitution never dreamed that their descendants would be incompetent enough to invite millions of Barbary Pirates to settle on the continent, much less not know which bathroom they should go to. Most of what has gone...
