    Joining the armed forces, is it the christian thing to do?

    In your experience did you ever encounter a time where it presented a conflict of conscience? Also did you notice any changes regarding chaplainship in the military? Thanks for you time. I had a discussion after this thread offline about it and in some instances even if you were an objector...

    Strict

    So I take what I've read so far to mean you want to have a discussion about physical discipline? If so, care to be clear? It would be helpful to further the discussion. I had such discipline employed against me but for the most part, if I didn't perceive I had done anything wrong it was...

    Joining the armed forces, is it the christian thing to do?

    Consider being a chaplain if you have any ministerial leanings. Just know that you would most likely have restrictions that you need to be fully aware of before going that route. Some wouldn't even consider it possible at this point to minister biblically with your hands tied in a lot of ways. I...

    All aboard the “I’m a nobody in this world’s eyes” train

    Umm, if you want to give specifics perhaps there might be more I could assist with but yes I have felt that way myself. If you have a bible around read what Nathan said to David. Pay close attention to each word...there are some things I haven't ever heard discussed about that moment in...

    40, new author, ready to date

    I identify with this lol It is amazing all the various oddments that can be kept in a vehicle...a spare room of sorts. Even when married, I would prefer to have a "utility vehicle" that contains all the essentials. Day at the lake? Check. Snowed in? Check. Forgot food to work? There's peanuts...

    Hi

    Try posting this in a different forum like the family forum or BDF even. Reading scripture will help. A lot of newer believers start with the gospels and read the New Testament, perhaps try that? Just keep it up, resist the devil and he will flee. Sometimes it's a long process. This forum...

    This Corona virus pandemic could be the weapon that takes our liberties away , all in the name of saving lives?

    I am not in favor of a mask mandate. Throwing out random numbers that I've seen "on the internet"... Let's say mask are 25% effective in reducing viral transmission (properly worn) Let's say a vaccine is 25% more effective than a person's natural immune system Is it not likely that a vaccine...

    CAN AN UNTESTED VACCINE BE SAFE

    Fully agree. If they cannot provide this information then get a second opinion. Even if it were something like 1/1,000,000 chance for an adverse reaction to a vaccine vs a 1/100,000 chance for an adverse reaction to the problem the vaccine is to mitigate still I don't have the actual data on...

    This Corona virus pandemic could be the weapon that takes our liberties away , all in the name of saving lives?

    Note: None of this post is in support for/against the subject matter, by the by, just with regard to the "disagree" reaction. I know it frustrates me personally when someone won't tell me why as I feel as though that is less productive. Up to whomever is reading of course, but I figured I'd...

    Let's play Bible Trivia!

    I had Lion dreams sometime when I very young. Except the context included an evil Lion as well. He wasn't chasing me but the evil Lion (which I didn't perceive to be evil at the time, just "kinda bad") was just "in addition to" the overall whole. Kind of complicated but that's how I view some...

    Let's play Bible Trivia!

    What were the dimensions (and specifications) of the ark itself? Are there any accurate modern equivalents? Are we certain of these modern equivalents?

    Let's play Bible Trivia!

    Well in one bible that I rarely read (was going to donate) I found in the 1st Kings reference a footnote after finding out that there were indeed two instances. Jachin (Jachun) "It shall stand" Boaz (Booz) "In strength" Fortunately because I found this footnote, I am inclined to think that...

    Well I'll admit this is rather hard without using an online search. I'll check a few more places ...

    Let's play Bible Trivia!

    Jachin and Boaz (felt like I should check chronicles and indeed there it was) I didn't realize there were two accounts consciously Boaz was a kinsman redeemer so I presume that is what it relates to (which is cool if so) Jachin...? Sounds familiar but I can't place precisely, I thought it was...

    Speak Your Mind.

    You haven't ever heard of Chick-fil-a? Pretty well known in the U.S just due to controversy and they are branching out internationally I think but maybe not where you are...AUS? Edit: and yeah it's nothing like KFC really (other than chicken). Potentially because they fry stuff in peanut oil...

    How far away are you willing to date?

    You've witnessed this? It's definitely an option to rent out a theatre. That's especially true when theatres aren't usually open at 10am. I would be super surprised if they were behaving exactly as if they were seeing a movie.

    Can someone help with a question?

    A good question would be...why do we need to know? Is there anything really to be done? Do you have graphic proof? It might get you thinking in a certain direction, but what is really accomplished? Hopefully none of us here disbelieve that evil exists in the world. For we wrestle not...

    Speak Your Mind.

    McD isn't even open where I live for another hour or so. I sure could go for some chick-fil-a or something. Driving would be something of a pain with how tired I am though. Unintentional late night.
