    Are the seven deadly sins still relevant?

    Everyone knows about the seven deadly sins, but is it still taught today? In schools, churches or families? Is this knowledge still passed around, or do people only bring it up to use in pop culture? I am interested in the seven deadly sins and I'd like to know what everyone thinks, and where...

    Will Sins Send A Christian To Hell?

    Will Sins Send A Christian to Hell? Real quick, how I define Sin: 1 John 3:4, Whosoever commits sin transgresses also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. 1 John 5:14, All unrighteousness (wrongdoing) is sin. In other words, I look at sin as anything that misses the mark...

    Why is there so much suffering in this fallen world?

    Forward: This book is a work in progress, it will never be complete, and as such will always be updated as I get more information from the Bible, not my mind as I used to do. Keep this in mind as you read it. The reason that I write this book is not to teach you anything, or even answer...

    Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage. - Philippians 2:6 When we are looking to progress in our understanding of the Lord we must look to the heart and what dwells within.

    habitual sin - inappropriate content & masturbation

    I know I have another prayer request on this forum but this is something much larger that I need to deal with. I only started to be serious about my faith at the end of last year. Since then, it's been a long journey and God has revealed many of my faults to me and I'm walking alongside Him to...

    The Practical Christian Series. - Strife.

    In God’s world, strife is an abomination and so it should be for the Christian. This is not the same as having Righteous indignation for something that is appalling. Whenever strife exists, then so will every device of satan including confusion, usurping and distrust. All these retard or put to...

    The Pain Of Watching Non-believers

    Oh the pain! Its such a shame! Each day, I attend school, and see all the boys and girls going about their days. I see them with light hearts, roaming, and cheering, unaware of the sins they commit, and transgressions against God's word. I look at them with repulsion, hiding the fact that I...

(James 1:19-20 NIV) With such...

    Son of God or Son of Man? Or Both?

    Y'shua/Jesus referred to himself as the Son of God and the Son of Man. If God is pure, holy and sinless and all men have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God and Y'shua/Jesus was made sin for us all, then how could Y'shua/Jesus be God and man?

    Struggling with unbelief and apathy.

    Hi. I've been failing in regards to bearing fruit as of late, because of a lack of trust in Jesus' promises of being brought to completion. I've been giving in to gluttony anger and the like, and part of it has to do with apathy, I feel. Any tips on how to get out of this rut? Prayer would also...

    Every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men

    This, then is the one and only definition for sin, refusing the guidance of The Holy Spirit. This passage sums up the intended influence of the Holy Spirit: Jesus declared, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest...

    I think I am cursed: 2 Peter 2:13-14 - “Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed...

    Got Back In!

    I decided I'd try different passwords on that LGBT twitter I had when I was in my straying period, and the correct password just popped back up in my mind! :clap: This is a big relief and praise God for putting the password in mind! This account is going to be deactivated as soon as I can find...

    The God Series - Mercy.

    Mercy. As our Father, compassion reveals His deep love for us. But as our God, mercy reveals His everlasting sovereignty for His creation that has failed Him time and time again. Without God’s undying mercy we would be subjected to His wrath and suffer the pain of disobedience from one...
