Not inspired in the same way the actual Biblical text is inspired. The actual chapters and the verses are not inspired either. But, one could argue that the actual breaking up the Books into Chapters and Verses could have been inspired by the Holy Spirit. Without the divisions it would be...

The reason most Baptists are Baptist is because they like their local Church. Also they may have reasons they don't like other local Churches. Can be doctrinal, but are just as likely to be personal preference, or even something as simple as I don't like Down-Home Methodist Church because...

I watched about 45 minutes of it. Basically it was what I expected. But, having said that, I feel Donald Trump could have done better. A comparison to sports explains what I am trying to say best. In track, cycling, and other racing sports, a contestant will often do good enough to stay...

The problem with any Supreme Court decision is that it establishes precedence. If Donald Trump is granted universal immunity, the same would be granted to Joe Biden and every other president from here on out. Joe Biden has very likely committed real crimes that the Supreme Court may believe...

Had my first one Easter. Small mature male Ruby Throat. Close to the Baptist College, Mississippi College.

There are many technical reasons the board can be slow. It could be at the server, the DNS routing, or something on the users end. If the problem is at the server, the administrators of the Forum should get with the provider and see if they need to update the server software, purge some of the...

I live within ten miles of Belhaven. I know people who have worked there and are graduates. I don't have any personal experience with the college during the last twenty or twenty five years, but I know its local general reputation. Academically it is has a good reputation but not an...

I am not Catholic so I will not vote or express my own personal opinion. But I will post a position paper from a Catholic Organization that in my opinion is much closer to the Biblical Position than what was published by the Vatican.

A friend of mine told me that one of his fellow ministers makes the case for a pre-wrath rapture. Everything considered, this seems to be the position that can be best supported by the Bible. But, that does not answer the question. Pre-Wrath could be pre-trib, mid-trib, or even a short...

No. We couldn't even if we want to. Our schools are on a two week "Fall Break."

Businesses are required to run Audits. Depending on the size of the business and their way of being organized, the rules are more strict for larger businesses. Large publicly traded businesses are required to use an Auditor from a "Big Eight" firm. Note, 'Big Eight" is what they used to be...

I used to believe evolution was possible within the limits of the Biblical text. But, like JonC mentioned death first entered the world after Adam sinned. Days referring to very long time periods just doesn't work when one realizes that the process of change over thousand and thousands of...

No matter what our policies are, we as a country should be responsible with our money. We are broke, we are bankrupt, yet we still spend money like it just doesn't matter. The question to ask is not "should be support Ukraine," but should be, what is the best use of our money (that we actually...

The pronoun "He" has an established meaning. The same with "She." Calling a male a "she" is a deception. There are reasons when deceiving someone may not be a sin, but it is still a lie. When Rahab hid the spies she lied when the city came looking for them. But, in that case the lie was not...

Calling someone by the wrong pronoun is bearing false witness. It is lying. I am not perfect and I still catch myself telling a lie occasionally, but I make an effort to always tell the truth. The lying I do is telling my mom who has moderate Alzheimer's the wrong name for a food. I will...

Other. I believe the best Bible Translation is to use several versions. Where they agree, accept that the translation is likely very accurate. And where they differ determine if the difference is substantial. If the differ enough that it truly matters, then study up on it going to the...

Have I reached the point where I am so old that what I consider normal no longer exists? As a kid, we were told to take our hats off when we were inside. We did not wear hats in school or at the dinner table. You could wear a hat at a sporting event such as a basketball game or when you were...

No, they are not trying to defund the police pe se. The city has not filed for bankruptcy, but for all practical purposes it is beyond bankrupt. The government is inept and likely corrupt. The police force is way understaffed and because of that, the state had to step in and provide...

It is early so I believe the advise Gamaliel gave in Acts 5:38-39 is excellent advise for the Asbury situation as it was back then. If it is not of God, that will be apparent soon enough. "And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be...
