choice

Choice I will make sure to keep this short. I know many of the postings here are so so long that it can be a bit much. Therefore, I would like to try to keep my stuff brief, but meaningful. I just want to make a couple of comments about something that God spoke to me many years ago when I...

Choice I will make sure to keep this short. I know many of the postings here are so so long that it can be a bit much. Therefore, I would like to try to keep my stuff brief, but meaningful. I just want to make a couple of comments about something that God spoke to me many years ago...

Whether they realize it or not most people feel that freedom is too demanding and too unpredictable. When God's people were led out of slavery into the wilderness, this was their mindset. They complained continually because they feared uncertainty. It is easier for a person to stay mired in...

Hello everyone! I need a bit of help from other experienced people here. I’m new to christianity. I will tell you what I’m looking for in a church, and you can tell me which church is closest to the description. Currently, I’m not in a country that has anglican churches, but I could say I agree...

Hi there, So I just keep coming back to this obstacle of my understanding of Evolution: No matter how hard I try, I don't get it. Are you saying individuals need individual selection pressures (and collections of individuals need collections of 'like' selection pressures?)? Maybe I've run...

I'm posting this under Kitchen Sink, because I want those not claiming Christianity to be able to contribute. Within what I say here, I want it understood, though, that I am assuming the meaning of 'God' to be, among other things, the absolute Omnipotent, a person, (i.e. not a mere mechanical...

Hi there, So we are all born with instinct, this is nothing "new". But what we are not predisposed to is receiving instruction from God. If we have instruction we do not do it, and doing it we do not do it correctly. This is just the fallen state of the world - not that you necessarily call it...

Hi there, So here is an example I hope explains why I look at life on Earth, the way that I do. It's not rare for something to evolve, because it's expected to, the real question is "what is enough?"; if you know what is enough, you can begin to focus on honing skills you already have...

Hi there, I was in despair, saying to myself "how can I be saved, once and for all?" because it seemed that there was no end to my sin - only more repentance, without end... and I saw this Heavenly Word on the images page of a search for immutable mercy: ...and I realised, it is actually an...

Hi there, So I guess I am assuming you are some kind of expert on "Evolution" and that if I question the integrity of the theory, you will as an agent with a mind, be able to pull the theory apart and examine the part of it, that I think could be improved upon? For example, the presupposition...

Hi there, So, simple truth: The idea is simply this: if you have differing members of a species, all intent on winning the same mate, that mate won't be able to bond with a particular member (of the species) without a) comparing her design with his, b) prompting his design with hers and c)...

Hi there, So just a thought for what our priorities, are, here. You have decided one way or the other, to give Evolution a try... you have decided that the weight of evidence favours species that change over time, one can only assume in a way that is deistic, if it is to prove better than the...

Hi there, So there are two directions this thread is going to take: one, is that you can believe what you want; two, you can distinguish what you believe from the world. The first point, pertains to the idea that I am not asking you to be something you are not: you are a man and I understand...

Hi there, So this is just a hypothetical: if a mutation ceases to provoke adaptation, to a particular selection pressure, will "Design" come to the rescue (where random change would only hinder)? Will "Design" ensure that the rest of the adaptation is fulfilled, before the creature gives up and...

God changes your heart... Do you desire that in your life? The transformative power of God that comes from the holy spirit by belief in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Hi there, So the words of Jesus are pretty explicit: "in the beginning, God created them male and female". He expressly did not say "in the beginning, God created masculine and feminine Evolutions"? But, if you are going to believe Evolution, is that a position you have to take? That...

Hi there, So simple question, really: The point being, you cannot simply be adapted for every possible eventuation - in principle, you need to start giving up adaptations, that are not suited to the entrance into a new paradigm? I guess, I finally worked out, what the choice, to Evolution...

Please read carefully, believe that this thread has a lot of useful information to any person who is a non-believer, and is a believer today. Galatians 5:19-21 19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry...

Hi there, So I am sort of running out of ideas as to what to contrast Evolution with - gravity doesn't make sense to Evolutionists "as a law", epigenetics is irrelevant to butterflies, and there is no real answer to the ubiquity (or lack thereof) of certain adaptations. What seems to matter is...

Hi there, This was not my discovery - a friend of mine at TAFE (Technical And Further Education) coined the idea and I was so impressed I made sure he knew I would remember it. The question is: Why does God allow suffering? The return question is: Good suffering or bad suffering? It...
