  1. By God's Grace

    An Original Work / March 21, 2019 By God’s grace we’ve been set free So that we can bend the knee, Humbly turning from our sin, Letting His love come within. Walking with him day by day, Read His Words, and kneel and pray, Listening to Him as He speaks, Growing in Him by the weeks. Comfort He...
  2. Jesus Was The God Men Had Seen In the O.T.

    Jesus was the God men had seen in the O.T. before His incarnation. John 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life..... ..46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have...
  3. Genesis verses 1:14-19 seem to belong after verse 1:5. Wondering what you all think...

    Genesis verses 1:14-19 seem to belong after verse 1:5. I have long been a student of Genesis, especially chapters 1-3, and I came across this odd observation/problem/solution a few years ago, not 'because' of any problem related to the creation events, but purely from a 'linguistic' observation...
  4. James

    This is the process I utilised that aided me in memorizing entire books of the KJV bible, verbatim. I am posting this for private study and edification, but figured why not see if it can help others by explaining what will seem to be gibberish if not explained. See description for details...
  5. Set Free!

    As followers of Jesus Christ, we read the Bible, not just for intellectual enlightenment, and not just as a history book or as a book of poetry, or as part of an English Literature Class. We read the Bible (Genesis to Revelation) because we believe it to be the Word of God. Therefore, we read it...
  6. Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

    I am sorry for the bad English, my native language is Dutch. Reflections of a christian part 3 Many look too much what the Scripture says and too little what the Holy Spirit says, I have written about it before, and shared it on the internet, I will also share it here: Under the guidance of...
  7. New Guy from London

    I guess it's good form to introduce myself before posting. So here we go. My name's Bryan. I went to a Church of England school and had a fairly standard religious upbringing for an Englishman. Now I'm a humanist. However, I have a lot of time for Christianity and Christians, and my Bible is...
  8. God answered my prayer and removed temptation, but now i feel heartbroken

    I have been struggling with temptation and lust, with a coworker of mine. I prayed over it, but those prayers of "I know this is what I should pray about, but in my heart it's not what I want." And here I am now, with the temptation removed, but my heart aching. Asking for prayers of...
  9. Full believers vs partial believers - Can the "Saved" be saved?

    Note to moderator. If this post in not in the correct forum, please feel free to move it. Recently I was having an online discussion with a Protestant about various teachings of Protestantism as compared to the teachings of the Catholic Church. He asked several interesting questions, so I...
  10. Am I being too prideful?

    Hello everyone! This will be a bit of a lengthy thread, so I'll add a tl;dr at the end. I'm sorry if this is the wrong thread section, I wasn't sure which section to post in, since they all seem fairly specific. Christian advice seemed appropriate, but I can repost elsewhere if necessary...
  11. A Question

    I've been sharing my journey into Catholicism with my mother and she always tells me to 'check the Scriptures please' as in that I have to verify everything I believe with scripture. How should I respond to that?

    I want to help one of my closest friends using scripture and I don’t know how

    Hello, I’ve never used this before but I thought I’d give it a go. I have a very close friend and she is one of the most important people in my life. I’d do anything for her. She has had an incredibly hard life, she was abused as a child, lost a close sibling, and was also sexually assaulted...
  13. Adequate Study Finds Protestant Doctrine is Based in the Scriptures

    From a recently mentioned article: Here’s Proof That Not Every Protestant Doctrine is Biblical "Yet a curious double standard seems to be in play here, whether intended or not. The New Testament never mentions a host of things that Protestants of various stripes believe in. For example, it...

    Difficult time controlling sexual arousal (little TMI)

    I'm a firm believer. My boyfriend is, too. We are waiting for marriage (should we decide we are meant to be married) before sexual contact. We've officially only been a couple since Valentine's Day (9 days ago). I had a total hysterectomy and both ovaries removed due to problems with them in...

    Two men are reading the same bible, one is always alone, the other is always in [high] Church services. Which one is apt to see the services in the written scripture when any portion of one is mentioned? Forgive me...
