    The Gospel Of Our Lord Jesus

    Wow. You have given me probably one of the best scripts I have ever heard for witnessing to someone, especially the last two sentences. Thanks :)

    Are the words of Jesus not for Christians?

    Great post, by the way. Very informative. I usually handle situations like this similar to the way I would handle a confrontation with an atheist, by not enganging with them at all. It is my opinion that all attempts at expressing your viewpoint to these rocks with legs is a futile waste of...

    Is Acts 2.38 the plan of salvation ?

    Peter said to them, “Repent, and each one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Acts 2:38 This one statement by Peter sums up what is needed for salvation: Trust in Christ, period; nothing else needed...

    Today’s church’s misunderstandings

    I have been involved in a lot of churches in my lifetime. I have NEVER heard any pastor or leader espouse this false, unbiblical notion. Which church? I don't mean to be unkind, but I think it may be time for you to turn off the computer and pick up the Word of God, meaning your Bible. The...

    Loneliness

    Yep, and one of those wonderful people was Peter, the guy who denied Him three times! I don't know about you, but I've been denied by lots of people who I thought I could trust, also. I hope that one day I can develop at least some of the patience, grace, and mercy that Jesus showed to Peter...

    Mosaic Law

    The Mosaic Law is another term for the Torah or the first five books of the bible. And since every word in the bible is the Word of God, it is written by God through His servants who write it down on paper. Simple as that. I think the real question you are asking is, "I understand that God...

    How is life treating you?

    Your testimony is a blessing to me. Your faith is inspiring. I envision a huge vault of gold waiting for you in heaven. Unfortunately, I think I may still be working on my first copper penny. :)

    Loneliness

    What a great post. I want to first respond by saying that I am sorry for what you are going through. Some people need interaction with others as a necessity. I sincerely hope and pray that you can find those interactions soon so you can flourish and be blessed. As for me, I am at a point in my...

    Paul's foreknowledge that "grievous wolves would enter in" Acts 20

    I have a client who happens to be a judge. Before she went into law she was enrolled at Harvard to eventually become a Rabbi. She lamented about the same difficulties you experienced. In fact, one of her professors didn't even believe in God, she said! :p It should not surprise us too much...

    Please pray for my 14 year old son Elijah

    You make my point beautifully in the following post: https://christianchat.com/christian-singles-forum/wedding-vows-for-the-new-millennium.189688/page-2#post-4133278 Unfortunately, I believe you have bought into the same nonsense.

    Please pray for my 14 year old son Elijah

    My advice is to forget the data and engage with the individual. :cool:

    I am requested to all please pray for my three children

    You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill cannot be hidden. People do not light a lamp and put it under a basket but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before people, so that they can see your good deeds and give honor...

    Please pray for my 14 year old son Elijah

    I disagree. Many of the young men today are ten times the fathers my father and grandfather were. They worked hard, yes. But there is a whole new paradigm for fatherhood today. A lot of young men are stepping up to the plate.

    How is life treating you?

    Wonderful questions, but I am always puzzled why we don't ask these questions of each other in church. I already know the answer: It is because it is easier to ask them on an electronic forum like Christian Chat (Thank God for this forum, by the way. It's the only time I can find someone...

    Please pray for my 14 year old son Elijah

    Okay, thank you for clarifying that for me. In your original response, you made it seem like all fathers were inadequately trained to be fathers. You said, "Father issues are one of the leading statistic to drug use." We have to be careful here. All too often pastors preach a message of male...

    The TYRANNY of COVID-19 masks

    Sorry I haven't replied to this until now. Been really busy. I agree. I don't think this is going to end any time soon. I think the libs want this to be the new normal, don't you think?

    The TYRANNY of COVID-19 masks

    While I am not disputing that the pandemic has been used as a political game on both sides, I have personally not seen any evidence that the virus is a hoax. It is my understanding that it has killed close to 200,000 people in the US alone. My numbers could be off, but I believe it is...
