    Would you still speak?

    I'm far from being the pastor of a church but have been asked in the past to lead in prayer at various gatherings. I've always closed said prayers in Jesus's Name. ...if someone were to become offended they would just have to get over it. Too many thin skinned people running loose to...

    Alcohol

    Yes, Bronconagurski, very interesting indeed. From the article, "The point we are trying to make here is twofold: (1) Christians tend to compile rules and regulations that go beyond what is written; and (2) when such grey zones are considered evil, those who do not abide by such rules are...

    Alcohol

    It is hard for me to believe it was the Holy Spirit that whispered in your ear that day to go buy a pint of whiskey, knowing you were a recovering alcoholic. Try buttermilk the next time, it works. A RECOVERING ALCOHOLIC??? You gotta be kidding!! In my wild days I never had a problem with...

    Alcohol

    You can buy good over the counter medicine for diarrahea or go to the doctor and he will give you a persciption. Been there and done that. Some of those food born viruses are almost impossible to control and yes, not everything works the same for everyone. Notice though that I did not...

    Did Jesus own a house?

    SovereignMercy, as you provided "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head." rmodis, these type of question's provided to you put me in mind of the Scribes and Pharisees trying to trick up our Lord. Some speculate He had a wife. If...

    Alcohol

    The last time I was "drunk" was in 1970. Two years before I came to know the Lord. Abstained from then on..., until. About three years ago I fell victim to food poisoning from a restaurant in upstate New York. About every two months since then, I was subjected to some of the worst bouts of...

    First Names

    Years ago, in the South, (NC) the locals would refer to a married woman (Mrs.) by pronouncing it as Miz-ress. I always got a chuckle out of that when I heard it. :laugh: Otherwise, I always referred to my peers as Mr. or Mrs. Still do.

    Abandoning the Bible

    Amos 8: KJB 11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord: 12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to...

    Abandoning the Bible

    Perhaps, He will come in the spring, when it's warm enough to be standing on the front porch instead of looking out windows. Amen, Brother. Wouldn't that be glorious?

    Would Your Church Continue to Sponsor Scouting if the Ban is Lifted?

    From an article today it does appear the Homosexual Lobby has succeeded in their efforts to end Corporate Support of the Boy Scouts. Sponsors have ceased their support in groves. A sad tale. Accordingly, to keep the money flowing Boy Scout Management have decided to cave in to the...

    Discouraging 2

    RLBosley recently shared his concerns in a thread entitled "Discouraging" when referring to this forum. Being a layman, it appears to me that all this upset and anger over Theological Points raised by the various factions who contribute here..., does in fact come across as very...

    What Happens to the Souls of the Well Meaning Churchgoers?

    I am of the opinion that Salvation is not that hard to attain. John 6:37, “All that the Father giveth Me shall come to Me: and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out”.

    What Happens to the Souls of the Well Meaning Churchgoers?

    What Happens to the Souls of the Well Meaning Churchgoers?

    Just curious ... can a person be born again and not be well meaning? Saved accidentally but not well meaning? I would have my doubts as if they aren't "well meaning" it would be just a show. I was speaking once with a man who believes you can lose your salvation day in and day out and...

    What Happens to the Souls of the Well Meaning Churchgoers?

    righteousdude2, when does a person become saved? When they walk the isle? When they decide to walk the isle? When they realize they should walk the isle? Why do we have to walk the isle? That thief on the cross certainly didn't walk the isle! I to have often wondered about "good...
