    Will Joe Biden cave?

    I honestly can't think of a worse choice for PRESIDENT, so his running mate doesn't matter. I mean, the man literally has mental issues... But anyway, we're still called to pray for him, and I hope he makes a wise decision regardless.

    LDS Is grace a blessing?

    How can it not!!? Grace is a blessing in all forms! If I give you grace, you will feel blessed, and vice versa. Any grace from God IS a blessing. If it were not a blessing, it was not grace. Philippians 4:7 "And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and...

    Is Global Warming Real?

    I've been told repeatedly that it is, and repeatedly that it isn't. Personally I think it is because I see all kinds of weird climate stuff going on, but I don't have a firm opinion on it.

    Seeking the truth: seeking an encounter with God and receiving the silent treatment

    "Do not test the Lord your God" Testing God and asking for a response is never wise.

    So discouraged

    There are a lot of really disappointing, foolish people here....nothing you can really do about it. I'll be praying for you, but in the meantime, just challenge yourself- do you NEED to be here?

    Rioters/looters in Minnesota have conncections to white supremacy groups

    Hey guys, let's all be kind here. Honestly, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter their political standpoints or whether they're "white supremacists", white, or black, it's still wrong to riot/loot, and we know that. Peaceful protesting is the way to go, especially as Christians, and black...

    Which baptism is the "one baptism" of Christianity?

    Regardless of which baptism it is (infant or salvation-based, I believe in the latter), baptism is an extremely NT concept and is most certainly in affect today, for good reason.

    Question (From A Christian Gamer)

    I'm a gamer too, so don't worry, gaming most certainly isn't a sin. The only thing you need to be careful of is what you're filling your mind with. If your mind feels tarnished with a violent video game, remove it! If not, enjoy it, and thank God for that gift lol.

    Did Jesus Re-name Simon the “Rock” – Confusion with Petra, Cephas, Rock and Peter

    The history of the Church and the fact that there are no recorded writings of Peter being a clearly-cut leader above the rest indicate that his position may have been higher in Heaven.

    Should Christian Women cover their hair?

    This is a tiny matter of hair covering.....I refuse to continue this any more as I will not be disrespected by someone who is obviously not living the Truth they claim. Don't force your beliefs on someone, we're all human and we all deserve respect. I disagree with you, but I still love and...

    Should Christian Women cover their hair?

    Disagreeing is one thing, being disrespectful in it is another. If you want to debate, debate, don't throw cards that people don't agree with and treat them as truth, ok? We are called to do everything in love as well, and that's in your Bible as well as mine.

    Should Christian Women cover their hair?

    Absolutely, but we must ask why. WHY did Paul write that? He wrote about sex inside of marriage because it involves keeping the marriage bed sacred, etc. He wrote everything he did for a reason, and the reason behind head coverings was to keep modesty as a normal practice within the Church. That...

    Should Christian Women cover their hair?

    I agree for the most part, but you commit the fallacy of creating two ends of a spectrum. Christ does not conform to culture; I never said that. Christianity has, however, progressed in many ways. Catholics believe things never taught in the early Church. I'm not saying it's right, but that's...

    Should Christian Women cover their hair?

    Right, but that Bible also says to not eat pork and to offer sacrifices, yet those OT laws are covered under Christ's blood. If some laws are not in affect, others might not be either, it's simply a matter of rooting out what is necessary for the modern-day Christian as given to us by Christ or...
