    In what way(s) did Christ take our punishment for sin?

    I really appreciated your theorizing there. Thanks for sharing. Somehow that opened up a thought pattern that I find pretty useful at present. I'll consider sharing myself but it ended up being a deeper argument for the divinity of Jesus. On topic though. Can you specify what you are having...

    Jesus name

    His name isn't a spell...that's something that's been worked into my heart time and again. Have you considered that the word "name" means more than just what someone is called? In the name of King George would mean what? Doing something in the "King's name". That is where believers should...

    Former pentecostal

    Ok well, I was just wrestling with the idea that interpreting a "tongue" can be as unique as a person's "personal" language. I mean what you feel when you hear your favorite worship song...can you put that into words "really"... how music affects everyone in different ways that aren't really...

    Former pentecostal

    Yeah this is a clone of post 51 I presume. It's good support and I don't disagree personally but what tongues happens to be isn't something I'm interested in discussing at this time. I'm an interpreter if anything and I'll expound on that a tad in a little bit after I figure out if it's a...

    Former pentecostal

    No I think I found it. I thought you were saying the people that were involved with deciding the canon held this position.

    Best board games

    It can still happen but it's much less likely. The problem is it's MUCH longer than Risk from my few times playing. It's also pretty different that 1 is the best roll lol. I could usually find partners for Risk in college but Axis & allies it was challenging. It's also a pretty expensive buy...

    Is It Anything About The Sabbath That We Must Know?

    Under the law of liberty I find that there are two extremes. being pharasaical vs licentiousness with what is permissible in between. I've come up with a north south east west compass of other extremes but they are fuzzy at present so we'll see. I vacillate between these two extremes and...

    Remenissing About Days of Yore

    Sad addendum. I was curious (and I should be getting to bed) but apparently the landline shutdown is much farther along than I thought. 8.2.22 R.I.P POTS

    Remenissing About Days of Yore

    I'm obviously much younger than you are because rotary phones I've only used once or twice (I do still have one that worked a while ago though). We did have a color TV that is probably worth quite a bit now but it definitely had more channels than 3. It did have the dial though. It was chrome...

    can you guys post something funny please?

    That was very unexpected LOL. Somehow I forgot what thread I was on..."oh a cooking tip, ok!" ;)

    Halloween. Is it evil? Should Christians celebrate it?

    Very few people intentionally celebrate how they did in the OT. You don't find people consciously burning incense to pagan deities or participating in rites or anything like that. Not believers at least and even those who many think are nominal (believers) would certainly shy away and likely...

    Temporary absence

    A break from the forums can definitely be productive if it's become unproductive for you. This can turn into something akin to Facebook (spending way too much time) browsing and interacting and finding the time balance and focusing on stewardship is sometimes difficult. Hope your absence is...

    A Christian alternative to the Boy/Girl Scouts

    Uniforms are one element I'm on the fence about. I think it can promote discipline but perhaps also legalism? Feels a tad goofy as an adult these days for me. At least in scouts they have Class A and Class B uniforms. Class B was just some BSA related shirt, pants, and hat vs an uncomfortable...

    Coffee shop/bakery name

    Well if I can come by and get a cup o' joe around the 20th of October I'd certainly do so. Always a funny thing to bring the internet to "real life" so I guess I'll message closer to that date to see. Maybe right about the time of the grand opening. Seems diverting enough. I think it's around...

    Coffee shop/bakery name

    Hmm, I'll be up that way for a wedding in KY late october...have to go up 24 to get there and it's nice to take a break somewhere along the way so that'd be neat.

    Should Married Couples Who Are Able Be the Only Ones to Have Rights to a Biological Child?

    Grrr...can't really share my mind on this one overmuch in this venue. Interesting topic. I'll think a little bit on it but within the context of marriage there are further options to discuss. I tried to sum this up earlier in that other thread but I'll just echo this... I think we should be...

    Coffee shop/bakery name

    CC meetup in TN seems fun. Is that where this shop is located? Is it operational yet? Hard to mess up coffee and I like a cup or two :) Nashville is FAR for me though. Rocky top is close enough. I've been wanting to see Rock city and do ruby falls for a while so if it's semi-close might not...

    BELIEFS ABOUT THE KJV

    You know you can turn off auto correct or even word suggestion (assuming you are using a phone). It gets a bit irritating to correct typos without suggestions but it seems better than the alternative.

    Chat Rooms Down Yet Again...

    You all seem to use the chat so I have a question... is it against the rules to create a separate chat account? I'd prefer them be separated so I haven't checked it out yet...is there some way I can preview or just listen without a mic to get a feel for things? Is there an I.M feature at all...
