I was reading one of my favorite websites, and came across this interesting article. Kinda made me thing about how I say things. Even on this forum. Check it out if you will. The Tongue—One of Man’s Most Dangerous Weapons Jesus Christ gave a stern warning regarding the unseemly language...

I have seen, and been involved in many arguements on this forum that led me to take a close look at Romans 14. With the recent holiday that came, and went Christians have been divided in this, but Paul speaks against Christians dividing themselves due to personal practices. 1 Cor 2:11For...

I haven't been a member of this website for a year yet, and everytime a major holiday comes around the talk about whether Christians should celebrate them or not comes up. We are about to come across Easter, and I have noticed great contreversy about whether or not Christians should even...

A close family friend, Steven is in the hospital in ICU in critical condition with pancreatitis. He is a young father and husband and a devout Christian. Tomorrow is also the 5 year anniversary of his brother passing away in a car accident so him being in the hosptial with such a severe illness...

I do need help with this issue. I have a friend who is attending a congregation that is discussing the membership of certain people and whether or not to disfellowship them. If anyone could give me scripture and biblical reasons for a person to be disfellowshipped I would appreciate it. I have...

For those who have not seen the video, RoboOp posted an article about it in the Christian News forum. This may come as a wild shock to some.. wait for it.. wait.... (I need that guy who did the awesome HD youtube parody to do me an intro here. Where is he when I need him?) I'm NOT a hero...

I copied this from a website. Very informative. This is said to be the TRUE story of "Santa Clause". Many Christians argue whether or not Santa is even Christian. Just read this, and you be the judge. Sorry it is so lengthy. The true story of Santa Claus begins with Nicholas, who was born...

My son(Wesley) is 9 years old and ever since he could talk he has come up with some of the most hilarious things. When he was in kindergarten I was cooking dinner. Something was on the stove burner and smoked up the house. Well, the smoke detector went off like 6 times! Wes comes out of his...

God predestined that Christians would be saved, but gave all men the freedom of choice. God wants all men to be saved, but He wants them to make the decision to become Christians themselves. To believe that we have no control over our own destination is false doctrine. 1 Timothy 2:3,4 For...

According to the bible, we cannot determine by our feelings if we are saved or not. Consider the apostle Paul. He lived before God in all good conscience but admits he did it ignorantly in unbelief. Just because his conscience did not tell him he was wrong in persecuting Christians does not...

Churches did not get divided because of what is in the Bible, but over things that are not authorized (or even mentioned) in the Bible. God is perfect, and His will doesn't need man-made enhancements. Here are some examples. No scripture Not Scriptual Belief that the "Sinner's Prayer" saves...

I have seen quite a bit of negativity on here lately. From loneliness to depression to some people who are just tired of living. I have had a bad couple of weeks too, but who doesn't like a compliment to make them smile a little? This has been done on other forums I have been part of and it...

As much as I have REALLY enjoyed the fun debates on here they have really turned out nasty. Not all, but some. I have lost sight of what the bible is all about that I have tried to prove I am RIGHT, and not use my knowledge to glorify God. Then something on CC humbled me. While I have been...

Genesis 2:7 Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. Verse 18 . The LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him." Verses 20-22 But for Adam...

These are not my words, but I found this and found it to be interesting. It made me sit and think about things I have done wrong to test God. What does it mean to “put the Lord to the test?” Chances are that many of us have done so and may not even realize what we have done. When being tempted...

I thought this would be fun to do. Of course nothing too personal. This IS the internet and it is important to be descrete, but it is fun to learn little things about others that you may not have known. I shall go first. 1. I am left handed. 2. I am the tallest female in my entire...

Take smoking for example. How can a Christian smoke? Isn't your body a temple? Also, how can you stop smoking, and other addictions? IF you are a godly person then you why would a person smoke, drink, or use any type of substance or have addictions? Discuss.

This is pasted from a website. I will post the link as well. Are there prophets in the church today?" Answer: The gift of prophet seems to have been a temporary gift given by the Christ for the laying of the foundation of the church. Prophets were foundational to the church (Ephesians 2:20)...

There is great debate on this subject. Today, there are many "healers" that claim to be able to have gifts of the Holy Spirit in this day and age. I have always thought that miracles were performed to confirm the truth of God's word and to prove that Jesus is the son of God. In 1...

So, a good friend calls me yesterday. Tells me she has a blind date with a guy. She asks me to go with her because she does not want to go alone. I agree to go. So I started thinking. Does anyone else take their friends on dates with them? :) I wouldn't go, but we are meeting this man an...
