    Medication vs 'Self" medicating

    By FAL..., This has nothing to do with the topic. From what I gather the only "topic" relevant to this thread is your attempting to prove your otherwise unsubstantiated theory. No problem though. To each his own. :wavey:

    Medication vs 'Self" medicating

    ...you folks are shoveling sand against the tide. I am on five doses of chemicals a day. Just enough to keep my arteries clear and the blood thin enough to make it's appointed rounds. I don't like taking these chemicals but my age is creeping up on me and the time has come to start...

    Revival

    I wonder if the guest speaker causes a revival to break out because of his messages? "O Israel, return unto the Lord they God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity." Hosea 14:1 (Way to many churches today) "Therefore also now, saith the Lord, turn ye even to me with all our hearts...

    Great insights here. I am guilty and due my just rewards.

    Is Foot Washing an Ordinance at Your Church?

    OK, it's not an ordinance. But why don't most Baptists practice it? Jesus says we should and that we will be blessed. John 13 Is there any record of any of the Apostles washing any other's feet, ever?

    Demonic physical manifestations

    ...'de-nile ain't a river, folks. There are portraits of scenes with mysterious objects reflected in the sky. Satan has been around for a long time. Only recently has the activity/technology caught up to make it all newsworthy and capture the minds of many.

    Demonic physical manifestations

    Satan can manifest himself anyway he want's. Should he so desire to divert millions from the truth and into UFO Cults, then he's done his job. Those who have witnessed this form of manifestation have witnessed it. End of subject!

    Demonic physical manifestations

    Over the years as an adult I have heard things go bump in the night and can honestly say that I've basically ignored them. We have always either had a dog or a cat in the home and I have always checked on them for any reaction(s) on their part due to something odd happening. I remember back...

    Salvation Process

    Reading the mail this morning on the forum and could help but notice a Hockey Game broke out. :laugh:

    advice please for newbie

    ...typical sermon across this nation. "you gotta get saved, you gotta get saved, you gotta get saved, you gotta get saved, you gotta get saved!" For sure it must be a hard job to feed the flock and trying to preach to the lost at the same time. It does appear that way to often the...

    advice please for newbie

    joey, you can tell people but you can't tell 'em much. If they don't want to hear it you're wasting your breath. All you can do is show another what the scripture says and let the Holy Spirit do the rest. Hence, you need to know the scriptures.

    1 Cor 1

    When the Lord moves across a congregation praise for Him comes from some shouting, some crying with joy, some are moved to raise their arms or to vacate the pew, some remain seated in a conservative manner savoring the special time, some might break out in song or hugging each other. His...

    The secret to success and prosperity...

    Wanna know the secret? Then read the book of Daniel several times and discover some central themes on God's sovereignty & human responsibility. ...yep, you're right. The Lord will prosper us if we keep Him first in our lives.

    Gambling vs. Candy

    But why in the world would a Christian buy one? Personally, I don't see anything wrong with buying a Lottery Ticket. Should purchasing these things become an obsession, then a problem exists. I really don't believe it has anything to do with a thought of the Lord not being able to take care...

    Gambling vs. Candy

    John of Japan, this forum is filled with folks who desire to keep you down at their level. They think it - therefore it is - with scripture to back it up. Should Believers venture out for a night on the town buying rounds for everyone, gambling their hard earned money away..., dancing to the...

    Judge, Jury & Executioner

    Okay, I'm going to say it one more time and then I'm vacating the thread. It all becomes very old very quickly. A Head Master expelled a Student two months from graduating High School. Knowing the circumstances as I do..., this wasn't fair.

    Judge, Jury & Executioner

    ...yet you overlook the fact that by posting your version of the story, which you admit that you came by it secondhand, you are engaging in exactly the same activity. According to your rationale, anything offered up on the nightly news would be but gossip. I really don't think you two...

    Judge, Jury & Executioner

    I get what you're saying. The pastor's job is to SHEPHERD his sheep, not dictate and control them like puppets. Correction should be a tool for restoration. If he had no intent to counsel, to listen to both sides and offer to help, I'd say he cares more about being boss than about shepherding...

    Judge, Jury & Executioner

    So all you have is gossip? Based on the gossip you've presented, I would say that the daughter made a poor choice and now has to deal with the consequences of that poor choice. Matt Wade, for sure I'm not interested in your holier-than-thouness. You are aware of that, no? So you do...

    Judge, Jury & Executioner

    You simply don't get it, do you? We are simply saying that there might be more to this story. What's your source of the story? Are you getting it directly from the father or the daughter? If so, one of those sides could be biased. If you are getting it from a third party, aren't you listening to...
