    How To Tithe?

    "The Lord loves a cheerful giver." I tithe because I want to. If others don't, that's no skin off my nose. As for my church, the leadership does not decide where money is spent. We have a once-a-month business meeting where all are involved. And a once-year meeting where various groups and...

    Pure evil

    I've sat here for over an hour thinking of how to respond to this. I typed up a post, not posting things I have before, but explaining WHY he is no hero to me and just erased it. I'll just leave it that I pray for him and his family to be saved. You and I are on polar opposite sides of the...

    Women Pastors?

    I believe that men should be pastors over a church, but not because men are better in any way, shape, or form than women. You know - intellectually, spiritually, physically, morally, etc. There's my thought and I won't be back to this thread as this topic gets kind of......hurtful. Discuss away.

    What makes you a Baptist?

    I'm not being facetious, but what makes me a Baptist is the fact that I attend a Baptist church. To me, that's about it.

    Healing and miracles

    I have not "denied any supernatural promise." I am not "resistant" to it. My church DOES lay hands on people. All the time. Not everyone is healed. That's God's business. I DID have cancer. I did not ask the church the lay hands on me. But I did ask them to pray and I was grateful for...

    Healing and miracles

    Are the two of you saying that Jesus was saying that the early church and the modern church would be more sensational than he? That he was speaking qualitatively? That we would draw more to Christ with our being supernatural sideshow? And are the two of you saying that you don't see this and...

    Healing and miracles

    Jesus was not speaking qualitatively - not more miraculously. He was speaking quantitatively - more leading people to Christ. For example, on the day of Pentecost, yes, they spoke different languages to Jews from around the known world so they would understand in their own language. But what...

    How do you know God is real?

    Everybody on this board has had dry spells of feeling absolutely nothing. Thank goodness our faith is not about how much we "feel". Nothing wrong with feelings. God has feelings. He created feelings. But feelings shouldn't take the lead. Belief/faith takes the lead. It's like a train...

    How do you know God is real?

    I can only answer this personally. I can't speak for others. Here's how I know that God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit are real. (A) This may sound weird, but ...... I taught science [life, earth, and physical] to junior high students for many years. I was already a Christian and the...

    Tv shows to watch with christian content

    And then there's the episode where Barney and Andy are looking through the city trash for Opie's "newspapers" with town gossip in them and they come across Barney's trashy magazines he subscribed to and they look at the centerfold with Andy mockingly chastising Barney and Barney trying to point...

    Tv shows to watch with christian content

    I'm not familiar with any of these as I don't take Netflix nor get any of the HBOs, Showtimes, or Cinemax. But here is the Parents Guide available online for True Blood on HBO. Does this sound like Christian content? [1] Sex and nudity: Female nudity. Much sex. Rape. Child molestation...

    Trump, 79, Fundraises Off Desperate Push to Get Into Heaven

    Bill, help me out with what you are saying. Can we never question anything he says or does? My burden is also for those who claim Trump's great Godliness and that he is leading America to heaven. Yes, they are all over the internet. Are they not causing people to err? I'll try my dead-level...

    AI--What do you think?

    Back in the day, when I taught reading, grammar, writing, and spelling in junior high school, we didn't have to worry about AI. Mama and Daddy and Grandma wrote their essays and research papers! LOL! And that was across the board, in public, private, and Christian schools. Not all kids had...

    Trump, 79, Fundraises Off Desperate Push to Get Into Heaven

    I said "here at the Baptist Board". I never saw anyone here champion Biden or claim him a Godly man.

    Trump, 79, Fundraises Off Desperate Push to Get Into Heaven

    No one is "determining" Trump's salvation. There are just two opposing schools of thought. [1] Trump is a Christian - how can you question that? [2] Trump bears bad fruit - are we certain he knows the Lord? And the two sides will never understand one another.
