I resent your decision that you know my mind, saying I do not want my question answered. I made this post because I wanted this question discussed. I am so disappointed that it degenerated to a silly discussion about bingo being a sin, changing the subject completely from a discussion of what...

Isn't it strange that a post was started to discuss about worshipping in the church that Christ gave us has degenerated into arguing about whether bingo is a sin, and making jokes about it.

We are speaking about using bingo in the church as a way to praise and worship God. It is to instruct us about the kingdom of God. Are you suggesting that bingo is a fine way to do that?

Christmas trees, Easter eggs, and being guided by the stars instead of by the Lord has no place in our worship of God. At Christmas, we are to worship Christ, and putting up a pagan Christmas tree has no place in that worship. At Easter, it is about Christ overcoming death for us, we go to...

Do you think Christ established our churches to teach us about the Kingdom of God and does not want to teach anything about the kingdom of the world? When Nebuchadnezzarii (ruler of ancient Babylonia) conquerored Judah to send Jews to Babylon to live as prisoners, they lived in a land very...

Scripture tells us of 6,000 years of our world that God wants us to know and understand, but God does not explain to us just what was here when God created the world as we know it. Whatever we need to know is explained in scripture and we are given understanding through the spirit, but there...

I agree. We do not belong to our own ways, we belong to God. We must look to God for how we step in this life, not to the world. The Bible contains several verses that talk about where we belong. Psalm 100:3 says that we belong to the Lord, who made us and we are his people. John 10:27-28...

There is a difference between the law of Moses, spoken of in the OT before Christ came to us, and the law of Christ. Matthew explains it to us in his chapter 5 when he tells us "you have been told" and he repeats a law of Moses, then Christ says "but I tell you". That chapter explains how that...

By searching scripture, we can determine that God hates divorce, God wants us to be a separate people who feels He is more important than any material thing like houses and cars, and wants us to be married to someone who is a helpmate in this. What is still not clear to me is what God wants...

Christ did not change any law of the old testament, Christ came to fulfill that law. Marr. 5:17 Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest...

Ezra ordered all the Israelites to divorce their foreign wives. Ezra 10:2. A large group of Israelites returned to Jerusalem from Babylon to rebuild the temple, and live a life true to the Lord. Ezra was their a high priest, leading the people. In Ezra 9 we are told of his reaction when he...

I believe all scripture is the truth, and that man, as the 666 symbolizes, can not be relied on for truth. Scripture includes the 613 laws spoken of in the old testament, all of them symbols of the spiritual truths that were established when our earth was created. They are symbols of the...

We cannot order the Lord in any way, we must only listen to how his spirit is. That is what fasting is all about, taking into ourselves what is of the Lord, not of the flesh. God is spirit and truth, more real than yesterdays food. Material food spoils and disappears, God and what He feeds...

In the old testament, the law was explained to man using fleshly symbols to explain the ways of the Lord. Circumcision was explained by cutting flesh, the law to only "eat", or put in our minds and body what is clean and holy was explained by laws regarding physical food, it is a testament of...

I agree, it is "broadly used". It can be used to decimate the person who founded a denomination. Biblically, it refers to the men who had personally been taught by Jesus or taught by those men, and founded churches based on what Jesus taught. They were to settle any questions concerning the...

The Samaritan's accepted many of the ways the pagans worshipped, mixing their worship with them. Moses taught worship through fleshly symbols of the spirit, Jesus explained those symbols in the spirit and taught worship in the spirit. That is a topic we need to discuss.

Thank you, Angela, your post brings up so many thoughts that opens scripture to us. Still scripture IS also an instruction manual. God created a world for us, and told us just how to live in that world successfully, and the elements of failure. A clear example is those who read the impersonal...

The books of the cannon have changed over the years. We are saying that we are smarter,, that we have more insight, than all the men who listed Enoch as part of the cannon.

The two main idols in our world today are astrology and the worship of Allah. Even Christians today read daily in a newspaper about what their star sign says, looking for guidance from the stars instead of from God for that day.

After you stated that you had decided to oppose anything I say rather than be a Christian with Christian ways, I haven't read anything you write, I have you on ignore. I am sorry I relented and spoke to you. I will use my concordance for your decision that they don't say in the OT that death...
