    Prosperity Gospel

    The prosperity gospel is wrong. Jesus instructs us to pick up our crosses daily, not make bank. How many people could the mega rich feed and put through school if they didn’t have private jets and yachts? But instead there are Christians who pursue wealth for for their entire lives, and it’s a...

    Theologies of Healing

    I'd like to have a cordial discussion about miraculous healing, but we'll have to see how this goes. :) As an opening question, do you think healing is always God's will? I'm not asking if it always happens. They answer to that question would be rather obvious. But as we know "it is not God's...

    The Gift of the Holy Spirit

    In Acts 2:38; 39, Peter speaks of the gift of the Holy Spirit being for his present audience, their children those who are far-off, and as many as the Lord shall call. In Greek the gift of the Holy Spirit means the Holy Spirit is the gift. And we see at least two ways God provided the Holy...

    Charismania (Poem and Discussion Topic)
