    Church secretary accused of embezzling $1.5 million

    Locks are designed to keep honest people from being nosey. Any organization, including churches, should have checks and balances in place to curb the opportunity to steal. At least have term limits if possible for all elected/appointed positions. I wonder if there were any others in the...

    Another thread about women. . .

    They Ask So Little Take time to laugh and sing And play and cuddle them a bit, Tell them a story now and then And steal a little time to sit. And listen to their childish talk Or take them for a little walk. Take time to hear their prayers at night, to really cherish and...

    Ever Seen A Ghost ???

    When the rich man died he lifted up his eyes to discover his torment and that great gulf was fixed that no one could cross. No, I don't believe in ghosts. I do believe in the power of Satan to deceive. Back in the early 1950's while living in Southern California, age 7, my mother and I...

    Apples of Gold

    I have listened (and still do) to this man and his message for years and years. In his Bio he told of seeking a Catholic Priest type of ministry with a denomination in Canada until he read the Bible, began to question his indoctrination and was basically ran off. As they say, the rest is...

    Apples of Gold

    From the Gospel Standard, Pastor Perry F. Rockwood "I reckon him a Christian indeed that is neither ashamed of the Gospel nor a shame to it." M. Henry "Faith never dies a natural death - it is always murdered by unbelief". "The world is dark, the horizon is red, the politicians are...

    The Video That Ended a Career

    I personally don't have a problem whether our world is 6 - 10,000 years old, or 160 million years old. To me, this is one of those areas that we can only speculate about. If the universe was created a million years ago and the world we know is according to Scripture, then so be it! I...

    Woman as an ordained minister

    I received this devotional today and thought it might be useful. "Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. (Colossians 2:8) There is a subtle temptation...

    Woman as an ordained minister

    From what I read in the Bible, a Preacher/Pastor/Deacon/Elder, etc., is to be the husband of one wife. Women would have a problem fulfilling this requirement. I see nothing wrong with a woman being trained/educated in this area and feel such training would be of as asset to them in any...

    JANE FONDA: Just What Constitutes True Forgiveness???

    What I said was, "I would reach out to her as I would anyone and even though she has since apologized, I'm still not Fonda Jane!" Can I "overlook" (forgive) Jane Fonda for what she did for the North Vietnamese as if it never happened? No. Forgiveness from me as a Christian toward her...

    JANE FONDA: Just What Constitutes True Forgiveness???

    Jane Fonda WAS a traitor to this country for liberal political reason's. She DID violate our laws. The ONLY reason she wasn't tried for her crime was because of Political Correctness. Her action(s) DID hurt our troops in Vietnam! Young men and women over there serving our country because...

    What are your church's budget meetings like?

    My wife and I attended a SBC a few years ago. When it was time to present the proposed budget to the congregation it was like a war zone! Unbelievable! Things finally got so bad in that church that some in that "circle of agitators" started dying. I'm not kidding you! People started...

    Can Satan manipulate our thoughts?

    Pastor Greg. No, unbelievers are not our enemy however, by not being in the family of God they reject believers as their father is the devil. The devil is our enemy. Now let me ask you this. Is Satan alive and well in Gospel Preaching Churches causing striff? Of course he is! Satan...

    Can Satan manipulate our thoughts?

    Question: "Ok, how can he manipulate us with lies and deception or through others if he can't get into "their" thoughts?" Answer: The same way the Lord can "motivate" us with truth.

    Can Satan manipulate our thoughts?

    The world is your enemy; the flesh is your enemy; non-believers are your enemy. Satan can only affect you through your mind as he can't grab you physically but he will invade your thoughts. 1Jo 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the...

    To Be or Not to Be Blotted Out of God’s Book

    "Does The Lord Keep Two Sets Of Books"? Perhaps we have it backward. Perhaps every human that has ever lived had their name in the book. Those who rejected the Lord had their name blotted out with more to follow, vice having their name put in the book once they become saved. ...Just a...

    Leaving the Baptist Church

    The pastor who led my wife and I to the Lord was a Missionary Baptist. Fifteen years later this same man took a .38 and blew his brains out. We always affiliated with Independent Baptist Churches except for one five year stint with the Southern Baptist. For sure, Satan attends each and...

    Near Death Experiences

    I had an Aunt that was very much a dedicated Born Again Christian. She had much influence on me as a child when it came to the Lord. She was in the hospital and died. They brought her back almost immediately and once she regained her senses..., she told the ER Staff that if it happened...

    Why Do We Go To Church...???

    In response to the thread title some have said they attend church services to worship. That's good. How do you worship? No, the original question as title to this thread and now, this question of how do you worship, are legitimate and I'm not playing a word game. I've been saved since...

    Why Do We Go To Church...???

    We are supposed to be going to worship the Lord but, why do you/we attend church? Because it's expected? Out of habit? Do we develop a guilty conscience if we don't go? Are we eager to hear the Word? Do we go to learn? To meet with other believers?
