    Secular Music and Christianity

    There has often been a long debate on whether Christians should listen to secular music or not. I think this generally is something left up to personal conviction, though I strongly reject the view that instruments define whether a song is good or evil. As Christians I think we should look at...

    Receiving criticism, backlash and judgement from family over not celebrating the holidays

    Before I begin, I just want to make it clear that I do not condemn anyone who does celebrate the holidays nor do I think it necessary to stay away from holidays in order to be saved. That is just completely unbiblical. However, I do believe many of the larger holidays (Christmas, Easter, etc.)...

    Jesus Said We Must Be Born-again To See The Kingdom Of Heaven

    "Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did." 1 John 2:6 "Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again." John 3:3

    Which world is better: the world with no God or the world where the gospel is true?

    Imagine two possible worlds: World 1 In this world there is no God. There is no afterlife and we are not held accountable for the way we have lived. World 2 In this world, not only does God exist, but the gospel us true. Jesus truly lived, died for our sins, and rose again. In this world there...

    Can non-Christians be saved? (for liberal Christians)

    I address this questions to brothers and sisters who are liberals, do you believe that people who don't follow Christianity and don't believe in Jesus (Eg: Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, Agnostics, Atheists, Baha'is, Animists Jews, etc.) can be saved Even if they never believe in Christianity? Or...

    The Great Falling Away In The End Times

    This word is four paragraphs long, so if you are simply into a quick one or two liner this is not for you. However, if you are interested in the great falling away taking place today in the world this word is for you. The Bible predicts a great “falling away” from God in the end times. “Now...

    Mental illness and Christianity/religion

    I met a guy who thought he was Jesus. He genuinely believed that he was the Son of God returned to the Earth, and he went out into the streets to teach his new gospel. He was, in reality, babbling complete nonsense at strangers and he was quickly arrested. He thought the cops were taking him...

    Are You Really Doing The Will Of The Father?

    There are many who claim to know Jesus who attend weekly local church services and even donate some time and money to help others less fortunate than themselves, but is this what Jesus meant when He told us to do the will of the Father? Jesus never told us to go to church, read the bible, or...

    The Heroes Journey and Christianity

    I've actually been very interested in the the general theme of the life of Faith. Outside of Pilgrim's Progress and maybe some works of C.S. Lewis like the Chronicles of Narnia this sort of metaphor seems a bit under utilized compared to the secular world and especially the New Age (Where...

    "Not Far the Kingdom of God"

    A thread on the relationship between Stoicism and Christianity. (I may actually throw in the relationship of Christianity with Zoroastrianism as well, and even talk a bit about pre-Christian paganism etc). One problem I have seen in Christianity is a lot of defensiveness. Christians...

    We Need A Voice!

    I’m genuinely disappointed in us a Church. I’ve seen a lot of discussion on this topic lately and I want to share with you guys my thoughts on the matter. President Trump has done some good things to support our community as evangelicals. Defending religious freedoms, taking steps to reverse...

    Serving The Kingdom

    As servants of the kingdom of heaven we are called to surrender our lives in this world to include wealth, fame, etc. to serve the will of the Father. There are far too many who make the claim to know Christ and yet in the end He (Christ) will tell, "Depart from Me, I never knew you!"

    Are We Judging Or Loving One Another?

    For the true Christian, those who are spiritually reborn into the body of Christ, life on this world will be a challenge. Jesus said, "If the world hates you, understand that it hated Me first. If you were of the world, it would love you as its own. Instead, the world hates you, because you are...

    Crisis of faith... please help me

    Hi Everyone I need help. I recently started learning about other faiths as well as educating myself in the sciences. After lots of research I have really found myself questioning my once unshakeable belief. I just can no longer understand with all the evidence in front of us how I can continue...

    What Might Jesus Say If We Stop Going To Our Local Churches?

    Today's Christian Religion practices are a two-edged sword. For those who live worldly lives throughout the week, the "local church" provides a place of refuge to dutifully outwardly express one's so-called faith. Equally, these manmade institutions with all their traditions and practices...

    The Greatest Genocide of all Time (and unknown to most in the West)

    After reading and sometimes participating in threads about Christianity and warfare, especially in regards to the Crusades and Islam... I just wanted to correct the record especially for those who tend to make moral equivalency arguments between Christianity (at its worst) and Islam...

    Video: Randomness vs Evolution

    Hello! I've been working on other things for a few months. Some of you may remember me from my notorious thread asking Christians whether or not they believe in evolution. I am not here to deconvert you. There is no possible way for me to convince you of anything because you will simply dismiss...

    The Church Is A Dwelling Place For God In His Spirit

    Today's "Christian Religion" would want us all to think the church is a place we go to for fellowship and worship. However, that is not what Jesus taught us about the Church. It is fact that true followers of Christ find fellowship with other true believes all around the world on a daily basis...
