So, I know this sounds really weird but this actually is something that I am struggling with.
I am realizing that I have a problem with a hyper sensitive conscience. I know that it is a problem. But I do not have the ability to control it. I constantly feel condemnation and guilt at even the...
Roman 13:10 says:
Love does not do evil to its neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the Law.
The word for "evil" there in greek is translated "evil" most of the time in the New Testament and means evil in the most general sense.
Strong's Greek: 2556. κακός (kakos) -- bad, evil
So...
Please correct me if I am wrong. But this is my current understanding of history:
Somewhere around 1000 years ago (give or take) the western world en mass decided to seek the truth.
Some nations became predominantly Catholic, some predominantly Protestant, others Orthodox, and others still...
If you look at a map of the current countries where gay marriage is legal you will see that those countries with predominantly Catholic populations (Italy, Poland etc.) seem to be more resistant to the new LGBT policies than other countries whose religious population is not as strongly Catholic...
This may seem like a dumb question to some. But I have heard a lot of really bad stories about people who go on these kinds of mind altering medications. My particular concern is that they may create "gateways" for demonic influence in the believers mind. Many of you I am sure have heard...
I am just now beginning to realize that for the past few years I have become very much overly focused on the judging and punitive nature of God and how He always causes us to reap what we sow. Just as He punished David for his sin with Bathsheba or Moses for striking the rock and so on.
But I...
This word:
Hebrew Concordance: nā·ḇî -- 26 Occurrences
Strong's Hebrew: 5030. נָבִיא (nabi) -- a spokesman, speaker, prophet
Is it Nav(ee) or Nab(ee) or something else? I have read both studying it.
Many thanks.
Also if there is a better forum to post this in please direct.
I wanted to open up a thread for all of us to come together who feel a desire to pray for Jordan Peterson. For his health and his families health and blessing, and especially for his full understanding of the Gospel and the eternal life that God gives.
I was just watching the Rex Murphy...
Hello all,
So this question is coming from someone with no Jewish connections at all. As a Christian the more I study the Old Testament the more I wish that I was in fellowship with people who have a deep understanding of the historical Judaism and tradition and culture and just everything...
I was surprised to not find any articles on google addressing this question. There is plenty on the question of whether or not the Old Testament commands are binding but not the New Testament commands.
More specifically my question is this:
In light of the fact that there are something like...
I am thankful that after having spent the last year and a half recovering from a number of health problems I finally feel strong enough to get back to work. I have been able to pray more in this past year and a half than I have in my entire life and it has been such a great blessing to me and...
It isn't so much one specific dream as it is a common theme that runs through almost every dream I have had for as long as I can remember as a Christian.
I keep dreaming that I am in some kind of enclosed structure and I am trying to escape from by running for my life. Sometimes I am trying to...
As I have been studying and learning more about prayer in the bible I have become convinced that it is better for us to pray together as Christians than alone. I have been meeting with people at my church to pray with and have been very encouraged by that to find more. I believe the scripture...
Hello all,
I remember reading a story one time about about a catholic saint who was able to travel in the spirit. From what I remember he lived as a hermit and I think it was a queen or someone wanted to talk to him for some reason and he said that he would not visit her because he had not...
Trying to get to know other believers online.
A little bit about myself:
I have been following the Lord since I was 17, (Im 26 now). I believe I was saved while listening to a sermon by Paul Washer. The past 9 years or so have been pretty rough. With a lot of spiritual struggles...
