    Living without myself

    Truly, truly, truly a transformation of body, mind, and soul occur when one "becomes" a Chrisitian. Salvation from Jesus the Christ does change us. Do not believe that it doesn't do so. But, this is not a bad, horrible, or awful trasformation. In fact, it is truly the best transformation on...

    who, what, where, when, how?

    "I myself go by the Spirit Filled Life Bible." Ditto. :)

    I am suffering.....911

    This does seem like a very complex situation, spacecadet. You say your love was never a Chrisitian man and that God wouldn't play an active role in your situation but I can tell you right now God has already played an active role in your situation. God plays an active role in everything even...

    who, what, where, when, how?

    I like the NIV and the NESB. The NIV is supposedly transcribed and translated from the original and later texts together.

    pray for me not

    I was sad when I read goodoldboy's first post but something moved me (wonder what that was? ;) ) to pray. And so I did. :)

    Revelation 14:1

    I'm not sure how anyone but God can say if we are in the tribulation or not.

    Hell...

    Biblical concept of eternal seperation from God or lake full of fire and torment OR both? When raised a young Christian in church, I was always taught and believed that Hell was a true lake of fire and torments. Now that I have grown in my faith and become a studious Christian in the path of...

    Matthew 18:15 and judging

    Greetings with love, I'd like to reinterate on a point previously made. In the NIV, Jesus says if your brother sins against you,...This refers to sins that we can see externally and that are directed against us. Jesus taught during the Sermon on the Mount that the Law was given to the Jews...

    Are there any Baptist churches that...

    I know of at least of local baptist church that has a female pastor. And my mother-in-law is a song leader at her church. So yes, depending on the congregation women are in these positions.

    Revelation 14:1

    144000 are chosen for something special :) but Jesus died so that ALL who believed in him would be saved (not a set number). There is no upward limit or cap to the number who can be redeemed which is good for us born 2000 years after Jesus... lol.

    Questions, faith, suicide...

    First of all let me say that even after I became a Christian there was a time when I felt my whole world was covered in darkness and that no amount of help could pull me out. Secondly, let me say that I was completely wrong because with little work God raised me up as his son. Since then I...

    What would happen if Satan repents?

    I'm pretty sure "his doom is sealed" since Biblical prophesy state so. And who knows if angels CAN be forgiven anyway.

    writing on the ground

    Yes, it is a thing all to common for the woman to take all the blame as a seducer and the man who was also sinning to be left out of the picture. These are all good points. Before reading this post, I always thought he was stooping to write so that the accusers could leave without his stare...

    Read it

    Just as Jesus told the Samartain woman that she worshiped what she did not know, you, my friend, are doing the same. Christians DO read the first 5 books of the Bible which are the Torah to those of the Jewish faith. We are the "sect" of The Way which was taught by Jesus Christ. The first 5...

    A question about Jesus and the three days

    OK, I see. I was under the impression that Christ decending into Hell and preaching the Word was to redeem those who had died before his coming.

    A question about Jesus and the three days

    Only as a relative statement. As I stated in my original post, some say that all believed and thus Hell was cleared. This is a mistake on my part and not what I intended to mean. I really meant that the verse was referring to Jesus decending into Hell and preaching to it's prisioners...

    A question about Jesus and the three days

    I see. And I see why I didn't find it in the gospels too. Thank you everyone for the help. 1Pe 3:19-22 KJV <-- this verse seems to be the most evident of Jesus actually decending into Hell and cleared it. The other verse from Matt. and Ep. are good also but I get the feeling they may just...

    Question your faith

    God has definately been hurt as we say by our actions against him. Just a parent can be hurt when there child turns against them and there teaching even though the parent has cared and provided for the child all of its life. I understand your logic challenger but, even as a scientist, I know...

    A question about Jesus and the three days

    any verses that point to this second place and that Jesus went there?
