Welcome to CC AnnieMc, we are delighted you took the time to introduce yourself. There are many here who have been "around the block" more than once. Someone has to keep these kids on the right track! :D We are looking forward to hearing more from you.

The people who run government lotteries sell false hope to those who feel hopeless. They profit on the misery of the lowly and the poor. They do this for their own power and advantage. I know some will sat they play reasonably for the fun, some also play from addiction while neglecting...

Welcome shawna1, we are glad you came to CC. You are exactly where our Loving Father wants you to be. Rejoice! Isaiah 57:15 For this is what the high and exalted One says— he who lives forever, whose name is holy: “I live in a high and holy place, but also with the one who is contrite and...

When you gamble, no matter the format, you are trying to place your interests above the interests of others. This is a great time to check your heart.

First, welcome to CC Wrecked. I see you are a relatively new member and I hope your experience here improves. CC can be a challenge at times but there are many people here who do really try to follow God's commands and love each other. Sometimes in the heat of battle we forget Paul's...

The Pursuit of God** A. W. Tozer This is my all-time favorite from the list. In Tozer’s own words “This book is a modest attempt to aid God’s hungry children to find Him.” I have read this little book nearly twenty times and still look forward to yet another review. Tozer ends every...

Faith-v-works: Chimera- an imaginary monster compounded of incongruous parts.

I believe much of the western church has so perverted the truth that they have little power. Many are unable even to sustain themselves. However, I take solace in the assembly of believing people, stretching back through the centuries, each pursuing God's will as best they can, building just...

Welcome to CC Henry. I visited your website, there is a lot there or us to explore. I will explore it in more detail and look forward to doing so. But for now a hardy welcome will have to do.

I love Christians with all my heart....churches not so much!

First, and thank you all who took the time to post a reply. I read every response and have finished follow-up study on several. There are a few more issues to research. The process has been helpful in my search for clarity. Again, Thanks! Just a couple of my thoughts: The need to define the...

This is not a rhetorical question, but a question seeking information. Can anyone direct me to a church, a minister, a denomination, a speaker, an author, or anyone else that preach salvation by works? I would like to know what they actually say so I may judge their positions based on their...

I agree it is tiresome. Make no mistake, I love my Christian brothers and sisters; those honest people sitting in the pews who do the very best they can to live out Yeshua's instructions. Somehow I think The Messiah felt the same way, even as He had to deal with this issue in his day...

Too deep for me....

I'll try that next time....maybe. Even the raw wheat wasn't very palatable but if you're hungry enough...

While out for my daily walk today, I passed a wheat field that had just been harvested. I gleaned one corner of the field, obtaining a single stalk of fully ripened grain. As I walked along, I removed the head of grain and began winnowing the wheat from the chaff with my unwashed fingers...

I share the frustration.

Your post reminded me of one of the most beautiful First Testament passages: Proverbs 31:10-31 Epilogue: The Wife of Noble Character A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come. She...

I'm not sure this can be reduced to a single event. It clearly covers human human history (the four beasts) including the end of days. IMHO this is human history, start to finish but others may disagree.

Daniel 7:13-14 13 “In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. 14 He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all nations and peoples of every language...
