    We Shall Not Be Moved

    God's ways are beyond our understanding. Those with a their therory's about thinking that they can explain, or understand His ways, do not understand. I should already be dead, I have should not have survived a very serious heart attack and yet I am still here. I have no explainations, He has...

    How Anglican is not Reformed or Lutheran?

    Many of the most active protestant churches in the UK are from other denominations and even non-conformist churches. I don't actually have much idea of actual relative sizes of the various different groups, but I don't think that you can necessarily assume than the bulk of the UK's protestant...

    Do I Need to Put Up Better Boundaries Here?

    I don't think that you need to say anything. All of us tend to be quite good at reading body language, If she start getting into your immediate personal space, just back off enough to make it clear that you are avoiding being too close to her. Most normal people will not fail to sense the...

    Did I scare her off?

    They say that the course of true love never runs smooth. Maybe this is not the end of what is happening. Perhaps in time, she may take you more seriously. I'm not sure that trying to analyse what went wrong is necessaerily going to help you very much. Perhaps in her mind you are a bit too...

    Something is bothering me about my Church

    Individual spiritual growth as a Christian is an important driving force in the life of a truely commited Cristian. If you are not getting to grow in your present church environment, then you will not be satisfied until this problem can be addressed. You are not alone in facing such...

    10/40 window

    I suspect that North Korea is probably in the same 10/40 window. Christians in North korea have a very hard time. Getting scriptures into North Korea is extremely difficult and the povety in quite a lot of that country means that most rural Christians in Korea do not have any access to any...

    Thanks for sharing this, It was very helpful, meaningful and instructive. I agree with your insights. If you look up the word blessing in a hebrew - english lexicon, blessing is connected with kneeling. Because we speak Engish, we are more connected to the Greek mindset, than the Hebrew...

    I think that we both understand a lot about being what it means to be blessed by God, because we know that we are loved, because of God has saved us in this life and that He has saved us to be His special people in eternity as well. Not everyone understands why some of us can have such...

    Is belief in an eternal punishment in hell necessary?

    Abraham once said " shall not the God of the whole earth do right" and I believe that God will do exactly that. God knows all things and jusdges in righteousness. His righteous judgement is not arbetary. Who are we to accuse God of not caring? He sent his own Son to died for our salvation...

    A Question for Trinitarians

    God is the self existant one. He never had a beginnibg, His has always existed. We cannot understand that, because we do not know what it means to exist independantly of all else. In the old testament, we discover that God has many names. Names in the old testament tells something about the...

    How aware are we how frail our lives are and that we may at any time be one heart beat any from eternity?

    I have already come very close to death at least four times as a result of medical emergences, and very possibly at other times as well. It does not much matter who we are, all of us are potentially only one heatbeat away from death. It's not a very fashionable subject to talk about, or to...

    There is no Rapture

    Abraham's name means "Exalted Father" and therefore he is pictured as a type of God the father. Therefore Issac is a picture of the Son. Abraham send his servant Elieser whose name means "In God's shaddow" and therefore he is pictured as type of The Holy Spirit. Abraham's instructions are...

    Has anybody ever been on Coumadin and or Eliquis?

    It seems that quite a lot of us are currently surviving by the goodness and grace of God. Unfortunately a very small nuber of us can't alway tolerate the cheaper generic versions of some drugs, is not necessarily a big deal that a few of us need the more expensive non-generic version of some...

    Don't we find that we become more serious about God, following close brushes with death!

    There is no Rapture

    Why did Paul believe in the rapture? Well in picture form there's quite a lot in the old testament which pre-figure the rapture and also the bride of Christ. and how Christ is gong to be united to His bride. If one thing is certain, that is that Paul definitely knew the old testament...

    Has anybody ever been on Coumadin and or Eliquis?

    Have you prayed about this, what man tells you to do and God's wisdom are two different things, but bible tells me that God freely gives His wisdom to those that ask Him! BTW, I'm on a 75mg Asprin and a pretty strong anti-platlete drug for life to stop unwanted deposits growing over my stets...

    Red Flags in a 1 year relationship

    This is a trust issue! What else is there that you currently don't know about? If he deceives you about this, then there could be other stuff to worry about as well. You need someone you know that you can always trust!

    How to witness in a world that knows all the answers...

    From my own experience, I have found that inspite of the care we take in choosng the words which we use when speaking to others, it is usually the things which we say and do in our ungarded moments, which others take notice off. Jesus said without me you can do nothing and it is when other...

    There's no reason why we have to necessarily agree with everything we each say and think. God makes each one of us to be individuals in own right. Is it not to the glory of God that we are all different.

    Does God Want Man to be God?

    I am a very old fashioned Christian. I don't read many modern day Christian books, a really large part of my book collection comes from a much earlier period. I also don't much like Christian books, which are written from an intelectural perspective. Man's interlect has very little to do with...
