    A Believer's Thoughts on World Religions

    The existence of other beliefs is often one of the most difficult things for the Christian world to deal with. It can be hard to find a tangible difference between them and Christianity, and the problems within the Church don't help with Christianity's promotion. I understand why many are not...

    A Believer's Thoughts on a Willing Mind

    We've probably all heard that we can "come to Christ just as we are", but this can sometimes be a hard thing to believe. I think it's the opinion of many that mainstream Christianity seems to celebrate feats of goodness of a particular size, and almost promote characteristics of a particular...

    A Believer's Thoughts on Faith (2, Second Half)

    For most who do these things, I don't believe that their actions are the result of pursuing a God conclusion that differs from Christianity because if they really believed in their stance, I think they would accept the presence of other faith conclusions; they would just use them as an...

    A Believer's Thoughts on Being Fully Persuaded

    I see a lot of believers often checking their beliefs with others for confirmation. It's often difficult to avoid doing this & we probably all have done so. It's surely a sign that we are all trying to do what's right, like anyone else. But I believe the Bible teaches that the correct actions...

    A Believer's Thoughts on Christian Suffering

    The Bible mentions often about suffering for righteousness and that we all are thus appointed (Acts 14:22, Philippians 1:29). I believe the sufferings are any inconveniences we endure for what's right. I think many people go about attempting their feats of goodness by using methods that avoid...
