Oldtimer..., I witnessed the same situation early on in my Christian Life. In that matter however the pastor threw the guy completely out of the church! Course, he headed for the door to begin with but... He was divorced..., remarried..., and then got saved. If, upon coming to Jesus, our...

No. A man is to be the husband of "one" wife. If his wife bugs out... If the wife bugs out and leaves a man high and dry..., where's the sin that needs to be forgiven? (And the controversy rages on) For the most holy of the holiest and pious individuals..., yeah! You gonna be inna' heap a...

The church we used to attend does a fabulous job of reproducing gossipers.

A powerful promise! On another forum board I read a posting where it was claimed that "Evil" does not exist. Professing to be smarter than Lassie this poster went on to say that people might be misguided but certainly not evil. The evil being directed toward the Jews, in my humble opinion...

It should stay in America..., no question about it.

Reminds me of the story of D.L Moody meeting Spurgeon for the first time. Moody, a large robust man was greet at the door by Spurgeon smoking a cigar. Moody went nuts asking, "What are you doing with that...?" Spurgeon, with his finger poked at Moody's stomach and replied, "The same thing you...

gb93433, a fabulous sermon. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, way too many churches have lost their spirit. Most fell victim to the touchy feely virus and quit telling it like it should be told. "My" attitude entirely. Example being, if a group of gossipers have gone to the extent of causing people to leave the church..., should the Pastor get...

My friend, correcting you in error is to you disrespectful, which caused you to pull your 'age' card out as if respect is to be a given due to age rather than earned. Thus, there was no potshot, simply correction of error. Should we consider the age of the person posting on a forum? Perhaps. I...

First, nothing I did disrespected you. If showing you where you are incorrect is disrespecting you then you certainly have some growing to do. Tell you what, part of your growing up at 66 will be seen when you don't take a persons screen name and attempt to turn it into a derogatory term...

To use your terms, I may lead a horse to water. That is what God called me to do. It is not up to me to make the horse drink. In any case, it is God that does the real work, even in calling and enabling me to lead the horse (2 Cor 4 points to this). We see that God is in charge of it all in 1...

It's preacher4truth. First, call it an attitude if you want to, but the indictment is true. Secondly, age is no indicator of anything, walk is. And I don't need to walk in your shoes to see your error. No need to pull your 'age' card. You've been show how your attitude is out of...

Know of a church in my area that boasted that they had NO missionary budget, as God will save the Elect without their help, as its ALL of God! Would say that church practiced the "Great Decommision!" I would consider they are of the "Sovereign Grace" persuasion but again, that's a...

HAMel with your attitude, relax, you're in no danger of making any 'converts.' Talk about attitude. Besides, please tell me where my attitude needs improvement..., after you've walked in my shoes for 66 years. The reason I asked originally is because I received a magazine in the mail...

According to the mandate of the Great Commission, the Christian Community is NOT charged with "saving" the world..., so why are so many trying to do just that? Christians have been charged with spreading the Gospel. To tell everyone of Jesus. Why then do churches and out-reach efforts begin...

...yeah, way too many stuffed shirts hanging around. Doesn't a condescending attitude just drive you nuts? Should they ever laugh their jaw hinges would squeak like a rusty hinge. Hey, have you heard the one about the guy who went to church and..., and..., well..., maybe I'll share it...

So for the Chritian, would the Holy Spirit be our motor or engine? He would be that guiding light that lives in our hearts. Likened I suppose to that gadget what links to satellites providing us with the right road when on a trip.

For the record..., technically, a "motor" runs by electricity. An "engine" runs on fuel. Visit a Dealership with "Certified Mechanics" and look for a sign saying, "Motor Tune Up, $49.95".

"Prayer doesnt change God, it changes people" Seekingthetruth, I agree with you 100 percent. I caught a sound bite a while back while surfing the TV Channels where Benny Henn was telling people to "demand" that God provide this and/or that. Give me a break...!!! Our Lord does not march...

This "New Black Panther Party" should point fingers. Yes, an admitted sex offender will raise eye-brows and I wonder if I would attend church under such circumstances. I can also see where an addiction such as this guy has is probably more profound as one helplessly addicted to drugs. What...
