    Once Saved Always Saved

    A young christian girl had been taught that while a person is saved through faith in Christ, he/she must obey the Law of Moses in order to keep saved. When she saw that God's Word teaches that Christians are not under Law but under grace, she said, "It's almost too good to be true!" Then added...

    Capital Punishment: Part II

    Several people have; add me to the list, with the caveat that we also include whoever else was a willing participant (father, doctor, nurse, etc.).

    GOP Candidates backing down on the Affordable Care Act?

    Max, I don't know anything about you. I remind you that I also made the statement that the ACA is very similar to what I've personally dealt with in Great Britain, the military, and the VA. The military extensively used PAs for most of the 25 years I was a member. As a recipient of that care...

    Capital Punishment: Part II

    Whoa, whoa, whoa. What hypocrisy? She said the baby is innocent, but without a trial or a defending attorney, is convicted and sentenced to death by the mother and father, with sentence carried out by the executioner/abortionist. A serial killer at least gets a lawyer and a trial before being...

    GOP Candidates backing down on the Affordable Care Act?

    GAR! How is it that you watch the stock market, implying that you have some sort of business acumen, and you can't see the problems in front of your nose? Doctors now have to see more patients, because those patients can "afford" to be seen. The number of hours per day hasn't changed; but...

    FINALLY!! Sgt. Bergdahl is free! But -- at a heavy price

    Talk about a political minefield. The Obama administration broke the law. But in this case, the breaking of the law brought an American serviceman home after 5 years. If they impeach him, the political backlash will be unbelievable. If they don't do something, then they encourage the...

    GOP Candidates backing down on the Affordable Care Act?

    (slaps head) They're still not seeing a doctor! Didn't you see the part about "back-up of appointments"?

    GOP Candidates backing down on the Affordable Care Act?

    Turns out, in the nearby rural town (population 17,000+), NONE of the doctors' offices are accepting the state's enactment of the ACA. So those poor folks that signed up on that particular plan are having to travel to other towns or cities to get care. How is that considered a "success"?

    Strange and twisted logic

    Where's the "slap head" pictures?!? How many schools have now implemented airport-like security measures as students enter their schools? How many police agencies have adopted new tactics and response procedures? It was a completely illogical and invalid comparison. One shoe bomb, and we...

    Pastor's advice on Calvinism

    Wow. Just, wow. I have Evangelist on ignore; but I've been seeing snippets of what he's saying thanks to those quoting him. So let me say it again: Wow. Can any of you point to any of the dozens of threads that this guy has started, and actually say he listened to any advice anyone has given...

    Goats

    Well...as I feared, momma goat didn't make it. Bottle feeding three baby goats now. Putting them up on Craigslist; between my job and my wife being out of town for church-related activities, we can't take care of them.

    Goats

    Well, spent the evening taking momma goat to the vet. She spent about 28 hours in labor. After the vet put on a glove and stuck his arm in up to the elbow, turns out one of the kids was backwards and blocking the birth. Vet started pulling kids out, and to my surprise, we ended up with three...

    GOP Starts War on Kids, Fruit and Vegetables

    Actually, my friend, it is the GOP. Here is a headline from Fox News: So, my friend you see it is the GOP who now cares nothing about the good nutrition of kids. Profits, profits, profits for the corporations at the expense of health of our kids. Shameful But if any Obama wants good...

    What's your view of music

    Y'all ease up a bit. Jordan's been given more than a mouthful to chew on, and y'all keep trying to shove more in. Give him some time to chew on what's in there.

    Obama Administration Seeks Race-Based Government In Hawaii

    The problem with this is that native Hawaiians are distributed throughout the islands. You can't take the 7,300 acre tract of land in the original agreement and suddenly tell native H's "you have to live here to enjoy reservation-type status." If implemented as the state of Hawaii currently...

    Eye Opening Music Education

    I provided my proof. My own experience with other cultures. There's also listening to music from other cultures. And there are studies of music and culture throughout history -- studies that start from just studying, instead of starting from a pre-conceived position, and then straining to prove...

    Eye Opening Music Education

    One last question that In The Light made me think of, and it's one I had to ask my son after he attended a youth event that taught drums were evil: according to several passages in the New Testament, God created each of us with individual, unique gifts and talents. According to 1 Peter 4...

    Eye Opening Music Education

    That's a total misunderstanding. Seriously - how are you going to get un-syncopated drum rhythms?!? One of the old arguments against modern rock music was how similar the drum patterns sounded to African tribal drums, or even voodoo drum rhythms. The erroneous conclusion was that rock music was...

    Eye Opening Music Education

    Actually, it can be proven. You see, I've had the opportunity to spend some time in the Middle East. Not just a week, or a month, where you might see the highlights of what tourists generally see; I've eaten in cafeterias that wouldn't last five minutes under an American health inspection. And...
