It is quite awe-inspiring, isn't it? I know the dimensions of Heaven are spelled out in the Bible but I wonder if we will be permitted to wander out and explore some? Maybe we wouldn't even want to, who knows?

...some people are just jerks. The one(s) with all the advise and willing to share it at all costs are often the ones who feel really insecure to begin with.

Why would anyone want to live with the "fear" of losing their salvation? At what point would this "fear" convert to "works"?

I was wondering what other church's do to help their local communities outside of their members? Very few churches over here do little or nothing beyond their property lines. I suggested over a year ago (at a mens prayer breakfast) that we men need to start a program that encouraged all...

The definition of "religion" (as it applied to those who believed in God) used to be the following of a set of laws, rules, regulations and teaching's as mandated by the individual institution. Over the years this definition has been watered down, enlarged and includes many other options...

This poor boy wrote the book to make money. Am I a clairvoyant? Have ESP? See into his heart? ...no. Why do I suspect his motives? Let me ask you this. How many of you really believe this guy has an inside track to God otherwise forbidden for the rest of us? How is it that he can...

...and congrats on your acceptance to the IBIBFAL ...thank you..., thank you..., thank you folks. This is such a thrill and I'd like to give a special thank you to all those who helped me along the way...., hee-haw! hee-haw! Hey, isn't that what they say at the Academy Awards Ceremony...

Van thinks that he has been unfairly attacked on this board for bringing subjects to the table concerning open theism. He wishes to find some mid-point between full on open theism and what he calls "deterministism" or a "deterministic view" of God. When the error of his theology was pointed...

As Christian we should show as much restraint as possible but the following comes to mind. Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take [it], and likewise [his] scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. Luke 22:36 Push comes to shove...

...and it does appear that you (demonstrated your total lack in ability to process what I wrote). It was my desire to provide a look-see into outer space through the Hubble Telescope that provides us with a glimpse of our Lords creation. Space, as is He, is never ending (infinity) and is...

Amazing! Absolutely amazing! I thought you'd take exception to the way I spelled Galaxy..., with a "z" but instead you took on the entire Scientific World. Contrary to what you might believe FAL, there are some in that crowd who do believe in the Lord and who do believe in the creation.

...with hundreds of billions of planets in each. Do we really believe we have a handle on the depth of the Lord and his supreme workings? Unbelievable. Hubble Ultra Deep Field 3D http://www.flixxy.com/hubble-ultra-deep-field-3d.htm (speakers)

FAL, you said, Point taken but we don't see the word "easy" either. What we do see is that few will find eternal life. If all one has to do is accept Christ as their personal savior then many not few would be saved. In Luke 13:23 Jesus is asked "Are there few who are saved?" Jesus replied...

If salvation is easy why does Jesus say: "Enter by the narrow gate for the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction and those that enter it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life and those who find it are few." Matthew 7:13-14 My Bible, the...

Do any of you think that constant controversy is fodder for Satan? If he isn't the author of confusion then who is? In today's world one Baptist Church advocates it necessary to belong to the greater good..., the Convention. Another BC claims it necessary to guard against losing your...

That one thief on the Cross didn't get Baptized but the Lord told him, "Today, ye shall be with me in paradise".

You can't change the fact that your child is your child but you can deny that child his inheritance. From an earthly stand point, yes..., but God's love is above understanding.

Eternal security is not up to us. It is God who holds us in his hand. Now, believers may sin, but if they keep on, God will certainly punish them. He might even kill them. I agree. Just as a parent punishes a child for wrong doing and, no matter what that child does he/she will always...

On another thread I raised the issue of people claiming the Lord told them this, or He told them that, or He instructed this way, etc. I am of the opinion that inside all of us we know what we should be doing and where we should be going and what we should be supporting, checked and balanced...

I am a long way from that of a Bible Scholar but it seems to me like so many "in the business" are trying to find "new" ways to motivate their members; to introduce a "new" theory; a "new" idea; a "new" way to fire people up. To expose and bring to light something that no other human behind the...
