Re: What is "the Church"?
I recently came across a page ( Why I Don't Go To Church Anymore! ), and it got me thinking it might be a good topic to start up. What do people here generally believe the Church to be, and what is your general reaction to this article? Kurieuo. What most people call "church" isn't what G...

Was Ayatollah Khomeini enraged by a glowing cross?
Old news I know, but news to me ... I have heard the report from 1988, apparently he knocked the wall down but it appeared on the next well, leaving him in a constant state of rage, probably contributing to his death. It appeared in a UK national paper, The Daily Mail, June 10, that year, of course ...

Re: Willingly rejecting salvation
Does a person have to be insane to willingly reject salvation? Do insane people have free will? Will God hold insane people responsible to what their insanity drives them to? Or is it impossible for insanity to drive people to do anything they are not responsible for? Can people actually reject sal...

Re: Eternity
One of the problems I have been having is dealing with eternity. When I think of eternity I get scared. I wonder what it would be like in heaven for an eternity. Sounds like you need what God says you need: a foretaste, God's Spirit within, evidenced by the new prayer language - Acts 2:4, 33, 39. T...

Re: Fruit bearing plants before dinosaurs?
The accurate thing to say would be that modern birds descended from dinosaurs. Can you enlighten with one example or any modern bird and the dinosaur it descended from? And for accuracy's same, point to fossils that show this. this is a general overview, you can find more specific instances online ...

Re: Fruit bearing plants before dinosaurs?
I was taught plants before animals.Baltazorg wrote:In the first chapter of genesis we see God creating fruit bearing plants before animals. Doesn't science tell us that they came way after the first animals?
Latest thought is that dinosaurs were in fact flightless birds rather than reptiles.

Re: The Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14-30)
Jesus is the man who has gone on a journey and given talents to people that want to follow him, his servants.
It's about using what you receive from God, his gifts and callings.
In practice this means being an active member in a church like the one he set up.

Re: Why wont God answer me?
I've been praying for about 2 months now that He reveals himself to me. A sign, a feeling, a vision.. anything.. I asked to talk in tongues, and be His messenger.. I asked for the holy spirit.. but it seems like it's going down hill.. I don't like this feeling of being separated from God. If He's r...
