    Praying For The Sick

    Okay..., you all win. After a long absence from this BB and after hearing it was under new management I did consider that perhaps a change of heart and attitude had come. But, alas, that didn't happen. What I believe to be a personal exchange between my Lord and myself while my earthly...

    Praying For The Sick

    Perhaps the Lord allowed him to linger until you were ready to let him go? Scarlett O., that's exactly how I understood it to be. If it wasn't for situations like this where would our hindsight originate from?

    Praying For The Sick

    @annsni, perhaps you're right but I would still like to believe our Lord has a heart and is very compassionate toward us given the right set of circumstances.

    Praying For The Sick

    No, there wasn't any life support involved and this all happened a few years ago. Mom is now gone also. No, the issue here is that I wasn't ready to accept the end for my father. You know, we are all guilty of having a "Haunted Conscience". We think back to things we have done; things we...

    Praying For The Sick

    You know, there's certainly nothing wrong with praying for our sick loved ones. Some illnesses can and will be overcome the result of the right medication, through necessary surgeries, proper rehab, etc., to include our Lord can and often does honor our prayer request for healing. Have you...

    What will you do when faced with persecution?

    It does appear to me those "trials and tribulations" that we believers deal with today will not be the tribulation as described during those seven years. Tribulations the world has never seen before and will never see again. Two different animals. Why would our Heavenly Father cause us to...

    What will you do when faced with persecution?

    I am pre-tribulation. If Noah escaped the tribulation(s) of his day why should believers of today be treated any differently? Lot escaped? Two men in the field? Two women grinding? The ten virgins? Keep watch as you know not the day or hour. Would any earthly father stand by and watch...

    What will you do when faced with persecution?

    RD2..., faced with a crazed killer(s) I'll do my best to usher him/her into eternity with as much effort or fire power that I can muster. Old Reverend Black might have turned the other cheek but I don't plan to if faced with death. I found an article on World Net Daily this morning with some...

    Tattoos, Skin Metal, etc. Should it disqualify one for serving in church?

    Exodus 21: 5 & 6 details a servant that has been freed. If the servant wanted to continue serving his master..., "then his master shall bring him to God, then he shall bring him to the door or the doorpost. And his master shall pierce his ear with an awl; and he shall serve him permanently."...

    Tattoos, Skin Metal, etc. Should it disqualify one for serving in church?

    Females come with a built in beauty. Way too many are of the opinion a tattoo will "enhance" their appearance but in real life it only cheapens. I have told my grand daughters to visit wally mart and look at the tattoo's on all those old women..., but to them, I'm old and out of date. For...

    Tattoos, Skin Metal, etc. Should it disqualify one for serving in church?

    RD2, a few years ago I met and had a long conversation with a member of Bikers for Christ. An interesting story indeed. He told of being stopped for speeding on his bike and arrested for DWI. They found a loaded pistol in his saddle bags and told them he always carried it. He confessed to me...

    Bigfoot: Result of Sons of God/Daughters on man?

    I have all but given up the ghost regarding this forum board but will respond this one last time. The OP asked..., "Especially if it is even possible that there are such things as bigfoots?!? ...most responses were but nonsense. Bigfoot; UFO's; Ghostly Apparitions; Haunted Houses...

    Will You Get Bored?

    rd2, you offer up the following... Hopefully this one will not get "closed! Brother, I'm getting too old for the nonsense. If I were to share on this forum of how I "witnessed" to a person who by all appearances is opposite of my physical design..., otherwise referring to a...

    Yahoo! - Homosexuals

    Yahoo! is an extremely liberal news media. They do promote homosexual stories and everything associated with our current administration, all in a positive light. They also promote article regarding minorities falling victim to so called white supremacy i.e. cops shooting blacks but...

    Will You Get Bored?

    Are we going to ever be "bored" in heaven? After three and a half million years do you think our Lord will announce something like this..., "Well, folks that's it"? "I've exhausted all of My stored up blessings and excitements"? That He will have to start over? That perhaps now we can...

    Why Church doesn't fit most people

    Earth, Wind & Fire, I'm like you. If you just look around it's not hard to see that we're inundated with commercialism. Cable TV with almost unlimited channels; cell phones for the youth to play with; social networks; the internet in general..., which by the way opens this forum for us to...

    I See A Need - Can You See It?

    RD2..., way too many so-called "nursing homes" are but depositories which lack any resemblance of providing nursing care. But the more important issue here that way too many of "us Christians" overlook is the spiritual needs of these elderly. Quite obviously these folks exist from day to...

    I See A Need - Can You See It?

    Thank you Blackbird for that touching account of your Aunt. Notice though what you said..., "...the other men & women gathered around her." There is a need and so many churches are missing that opportunity.
