    Army 250th Birthday

    Honor to whom honor is due. Very appropriate for 250th anniversary of army to parade troops/equipment. Parade of ships in Philly coming for 250th Navy in October. Marines 250th is Nov 10 Remember, the Left wants to degrade military, not honor, so media "hate" will continue to ramp up.

    New / Old names of Army bases in the South

    Headlines were just returning names changed by politically correct inanity under the "tear down all history Democrats". Did not know "recent" aspect. Seems a reach to try to justify just returning to historic name. Example: Braxton Bragg was famous, but as a really bad military strategist and...

    Howdy

    Welcome! Take a minute and give us a couple sentences about yourself? (as much as you care to - this is a good place to share "a little").

    NFL Training camp

    Have lived FAR from NFL in the boondocks of Wyoming and only occasional news blurb on Broncos crossed the radar. Now I live 100 miles south of Green Bay. FLOODED with programs, interviews, news - like revolves around the cheeseheads. I proudly wear purple Vikings gear to show I was born on the...

    Sunday School

    At Calvary Baptist, Watertown, where we've retired, we have Sunday School (not CALLED Sunday School) at 9:15. All ages nursery to Senior Citizens, and all types of learning environments. Dozen choices for adults. About 350 attend. No "classes" are live-streamed like the morning/evening/prayer...

    I am a KJBO Independent Fundamental Dispesationlist Baptist

    Since this thread is getting too long and wandering, I think we should cut it off. WARNING: if you have something important to add, do it soon. If a salient point has NOT been discussed, start a new thread, please. Midnight tonight closure. Law of the Mods and Persians. :)

    I am a KJBO Independent Fundamental Dispesationlist Baptist

    This is why the "only AnglicanVersion" sect are mocked for simply not being truthful. GOD gave an inspired word with an actual meaning. Anglicans made an obvious (tho well-intentioned) choice NOT to use the inspired word which they had correctly translated many times before but interject...

    Predestination Is God's Identification As The true and Living God

    Since this thread is growing and few deal with predestination (instead focus on election v free will, a totally different topic) I am moving this to the Calvinism Debate forum from just General discussion.

    anyone familiar with Rev Abram Gillette and the Lincoln Assassinations? Incredible Story!

    Forwarded this to my sons (both Baptist pastors) and son-in-law (history professor at university) to see if anyone had ever heard of this fellow. Received the quotation from Nikolaus Ludwig: "Work for God. Die forgotten"

    Mega-Church Vs Small-Church

    Did you ever think the problem no one visited with you or talked with you might be with you? :) :) :)

    anyone familiar with Rev Abram Gillette and the Lincoln Assassinations? Incredible Story!

    Not a word about him. Captivating story. As a Baptist pastor and missionary, along with being a civil war reenactor it was especially interesting. THANK YOU for sharing. I will search for other mention of this man of God.

    Predestination Is God's Identification As The true and Living God

    Simple. NO HUMAN BEING will repent and believe UNLESS a change happens first. NO ONE. God sovereignly choses to give such supernatural repentance and saving faith to those He elected. Salvation is of the Lord, not man. I stood on the ruins of Antioch in Pisidia (central Turkey today) and...

    Vote to bar churches with women pastors fails again at SBC Annual Meeting

    Glad you didn't have to use the obvious "foolish" word for this brother as he admitted it in his posts.

    Vote to bar churches with women pastors fails again at SBC Annual Meeting

    Each local church can operate the way they see its obedience to God's Word. If I don't agree with them, I won't be part of that church . Simple. BUT when churches unite in association/convention of churches, there MUST be agreement on orthodoxy and orthopraxy (doctrine and practice). The SBC...

    Mega-Church Vs Small-Church

    Good post #1, my friend. Sharing your experience is a great way to let people know you and your thinking. BTW, if anyone agrees with you about anything, consider that a WIN :)

    A Church Library

    With the exorbitant price of books today, I commend any church for having a "library" system to loan to families. Good job on how yours is set up and the difficult choice to discard. Unsure why a church library would have/desire general books that are in most public libraries. Those would be in...

    June 2025 Prayer Requests/Praises from our BB Family

    I have spent much of the past 4 weeks in bed, with little strength. I have the opportunity to preach this coming Sunday (June 22) in two services. This will be the 6th time in the past 16 months to proclaim the Gospel in a unique setting, very few of the people being evangelical or profess...

    Military Service

    In 1967 I was drafted but in college/seminary, so the President of the school appealed to allow me to finish and be ordained first. In 1972 I was endorsed by the Associated Gospel Churches as a Chaplain in the US Navy. In Detroit Naval Yard I stood with other "officers" (medical, lawyers, etc)...

    Greetings, brothers and sisters! Christ is risen! Just joined for some fruitful dialogue.

    Welcome. We have a large section where non-Baptists can post. You can READ in any section and I'd encourage you to do so. Converting to Orthodox (I grew up with many Russian Orthodox friends and have been in their service in Moscow years ago) is topic of great interest. Feel free to start a...

    Mega-Church Vs Small-Church

    I have been part of a large (would not call it "mega" but the largest fundamental Baptist Church in the State - about 2k) and there were some blessings in program, music, outreach, education that were simply not possible in the church of 50-150 members. Opted in the last church we founded to...
