    "storehouse tithing/giving"

    We have a family in Jacksonville (a father and his two daughters) that love to sing for the Lord. These folks are good! After the service they have a table set up offering their CD's for $15.00. In my humble opinion should any church invite others to visit, a check should be cut from the...

    Note to BB Members....

    Rd2, some people just "ain't" right to begin with. If you think about it, why should there be a "debate" on any topic of the Word of God? If the issue at hand isn't clear cut and fully understandable to begin with, all the rest is mere speculation and opinion. So what makes my opinion any...

    How long is the message?

    I really enjoy a preacher that introduces personal insights to include his experiences over the years. Heart felt little tid-bits of life, a little humor on occasion. You know, a down to earth and friendly kind of speaker. The more "formal" the message, the longer it is.

    Standing for Scripure Reading

    Like most I've been in services where it's both ways. One pastor commented once that to stand gets the blood circulating one last time before the sermon and to stand during Invitation causes the same effect. Else, folks would fall out in the isles trying to get to the door. :tongue3: What...

    Can we have a healthier search process?

    The pastor of the church we now attend told us that about 15 years ago he was invited to preach revival services. He tells of the minute he walked into the sanctuary he knew that one day he would pastor that church. Just over a year ago that's what happened. ...as for your topic..., yes...

    Isaiah 9:10 prophecy

    The Isaiah 9:10 prophecy: Is U.S. under God's judgment? Messianic rabbi reveals striking parallels between fall of ancient Israel, America Jonathan Cahn of the Jerusalem Center-Beth Israel Congregation in Wayne, N.J. has written a book entitled, "The Harbinger". The article is a bit long to...

    Military service

    th1bill, I've talked with a lot of Marines years ago who told of being given an option by a Judge. Time, or the Marine Corps. If they chose the Corps the recruiter was standing in the back of the court room. Turned 'em around.

    Military service

    Didn't intend to start any arguments. Arguments? No arguments. Consider those in opposition. Consider also the actions of Sgt. Alvin York in WW I. I can't think of that guy in WW II from Georgia who was an objector (7th Day Adventist) to war but went anyway and came out a hero saving...

    Military service

    First, I wouldn't ever ask for being put into a situation where I would have to take the life of another image-bearer simply because that person had the wrong uniform on. Nor would any of us. However, in a combat situation it's either you or them. When you enemy aligns himself up with your...

    The Christian Army

    Why is the Christian Army the only Army that shoots their wounded? When a Christian is down it seems as though everyone jumps on board adding insult to injury. With tongues hinged in the middle and flapping on both ends..., Christians should realize that if they have anything to say about...

    Military service

    We had no business in Iraq and what took place was murder as they were defending their country from an unjustifiable attack. Typical "ultra liberal" position. Obviously, one who lacked the intestinal fortitude to serve country but has all the answers. Does claiming "murder" at every...

    The Alabama Theater

    Any of you live near Myrtle Beach, SC? Our church took in the Christmas Show last Saturday at the Alabama Theater and it was quite impressive. If you have never seen the show it's worth going.

    Ptsd

    blackbird, my father was a career Marine serving in both WW II and Korea. He never spoke one iota of his combat days..., only of the good times they had. The funny stuff. The only thing he ever spoke of regarding Korea was the cold. I went to Korea myself and for sure, it's cold over there...

    PTSD is for real. Way too many men however milk the system for all they can get. Those who suffer from it need help. For others, they just need to consider the Serenity Prayer. It's complicated.

    How NOT to Witness (IMO)

    I am going to be way over my head here but it does appear to me that for the most part, way to many folks are talking and nobody is listening. Especially those lost individuals as they all have opinions regarding the here-after and they have all been told about Jesus. Everyone in America has...

    Old Testament Value

    I don't know what your eschatological views are but you sound like someone that is beginning to awaken out of the half-darkness of dispensationalism. I'm going to leave all the doctrinal issue to all the folks with the alphabet soup behind their names. What I do know is the Lord told me...

    Old Testament Value

    The OT has not been fulfilled. I implied that? Didn't intend to.

    The Power of God

    I thought it might be interesting to see what people believe that power consist of. To me, the "power" could be translated to the "Awesomeness" of God. He can speak things into existence; He is never-ending; He is clearly the I am. Those of us who have been called by Him have been allowed...

    Old Testament Value

    ALL same inspiration, just that NOT is applicapable for us today! Were you intending to say, "...not ALL is applicable for us today"? If so, I agree. Things would really be in a mess if we were required to live by the Law.
