    The Word of Faith church doctrine. This is the doctrine of the people I worked with..... We believe in one God manifested as: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

    Cut Your Teeth on the Word of Faith

    I have never heard all of that. They counseled me to find some kind of biblical hope to believe God for. It worked for me.

    WHY IS "HEALING IN ATONEMENT" DENIED?

    My old pastor.... 1. Very disciplined guy - Up at 6AM every morning 2. Rejoiced in what he called being a Pentecostal Holiness country preacher 3. Revivals - At least one every two months - All with unique and good evangelists 4. Would let the Holy Spirit have his way in service 5. Take time...

    Got to go to a real church service this morning

    A local Word of Faith church that I haven't been to in decades had real church service this morning. It was nice to feel the Holy Spirit. Before church they gathered for a good bit for prayer in front of the church and then a good time of worship. I had tears in my eyes as they would sing. I was...

    Repeating the Lords Prayer

    Such repetition was heart motivated, so no harm done. Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. - Mark 7:6 The problem with repetition is it can become a mental routine. 5 And when thou prayest...

    Repeating the Lords Prayer

    When thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much...

    Repeating the Lords Prayer

    I have never prayed the Lord's prayer in public, it has always been a private prayer and my churches of choice are either Baptist, Methodist, Pentecostal Holiness, or Independent (providing they are Bible based).

    Repeating the Lords Prayer

    I like to pray the Lord's prayer everyday something like this... Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. By kingdom come thy will be done as in earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors. Lead us not into sin but...

    Clothing to Identify Gender

    The pictures you posted are of people who are not purposely trying to "shock" others, so, no, they do not offend. Here in what is called "The Bible Belt" they would not go to town trying to shock others. I have seen store managers almost angrily throw people out of the store who tried. I myself...

    Clothing to Identify Gender

    Saint Augustine once said that man's extremity is God's opportunity. As far as I am concerned man's extremity is God's big headache.People are taking things to the extremes where what they are wearing is not right. If you had friends or family needing a ride to Walmart would you take them...

    Clothing to Identify Gender

    Tough question! It was nice to see women in dresses and men in pants. But to call it wrong would put a lot of Christians in the wrong as a whole lot wear shorts in public. How would you answer the question.... "Do you think it is wrong for a female to wear pants for any reason?"

    Clothing to Identify Gender

    Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. - Proverbs 29:18 If there is a Godly standard for dress which includes pants for women, then pants are alright. A Godly vision and standard for people is a good thing. To answer the question... Yes if it fits...

    Clothing to Identify Gender

    Now these restrictions are easing I have been returning to shopping more and more. Am I the only one shocked to see how people go shopping these days? The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto...

    God Bragging on the Eagle

    God replying to the discussion of Job and his friends.,... 1 Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said, 2 Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? 3 Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me. 4 Where wast thou when I...
