    interesting

    With all the disscusons on free will and destination teachings, when reading Luke last night I found this very interesting. It told me that God has a plan but we can reject it. Now personally what ever God Our Father's will is, I accept, but I felt these few words speak volumes. What do you...

    Question?

    This may seem like a silly question , but my neighbor claimed this, and I wanted to know if this is true, in the scriptures somewhere, or simply another false teaching. I was told that there are sounds that one can hear that are of God. Not His voice but different sounds of Heaven that we can...

    I know there is alot of different opinions on this, but it is an important question to me. We are all asked to be baptised, but is infant baptism not a true baptism?

    I thought it might be a good work, and a good way to redo that moment of the day where your thoughts or words about one that offended you :(, and were not what they should be. :o Like the guy that cut you off when driving,:eek: or the person with 29 items in the 10 items or less line. :mad: A...

    Where is the balance?

    As I have been studying the OT, and joining it with what I have studied in the Nt I am trying to understand the balence of God Our Fathers wrath and his mercy. I see in the OT how God destroyed and called His people to destroy all that is evil many times. But I also see many times where He...
