if both you and your potential future suitor feel comfortable within your faith doing so without temptation entering into the fray, then I'm sure things like dinner and a movie are fine. It's what you are comfortable exposing yourself to in the end, as standing before God. Not every one who is...

I use ice packs - not actual ice. They are like these: They don't melt, just a little condensation that a few paper towels take care of. For shipping food I either use overnight shipping or at most 2 day shipping. Things thaw, but mail is pretty fast here in the US. Not every cookie you eat...

It's to all who believe, as well as to groups of believers. The Jews being first to know God have the same reward as those who came last (the Gentile believers) if they stayed true to the end. And to individuals - the man saved and faithful from childhood through old age has the same reward in...

That is funny. Literalists gone wild! Hahaha

If it's eternal it's forever - however you want to look at it.

Since "The Church" is God's people, I'd say when we need upgrades we are putty in God's Hand.

On it's face the term "eternal torment" seems to indicate "eternal" - without end. Those appear to be the choices. Eternal torment/ Eternal damnation or Eternal Life with God in heaven. Both are eternal - life is good, torment is bad.

Matthew 25:41 states the lake of fire is prepared for the devil and his angels. Everyone has their own idea about what the term "his angels" means, however the word "angel" just means messenger, and the Bible uses the term to refer to either regular men or supernatural beings. There are...

Have you noticed how spiritual this stuff seems anymore? It's like the whole world lost their mind, and only a few sane standing. I truly believe God is judging our nation because of this... He gave them over to a reprobate mind.

I find comfort in it, total peace - not fear. First it's beautiful to see the picture of Jesus in Glory. Second, it's a comfort to know that no matter what this world throws at us, in the end Jesus reigns. Bad guys loose, good wins out. That is a comfort for the world, a true revelation of...

P.S. I don't typically tell people any of the above. Most people don't understand, so I stopped telling people. No real point in doing so, when the Bible is sufficient.

Personal example here. Prior to being saved I didn't grasp salvation through Jesus. Couldn't wrap my head around it, made no sense to me. It wasn't that I didn't have a very knowledgeable individual trying their best to explain it to me, but it didn't help. I got to the point I knew Islam...

I mail things like cookies to people (my online friends, grandchildren, children, family) during the holidays (along with other food items) or for special occasions like when my brother was in the military... For mailing I always freeze cookies and pack them frozen surrounded by ice packs and...

You only bake them once and you thaw them prior to eating. Step 1) You bake the cookies Step 2) you allow the cookies to cool Step 3) you package the cookies, removing air from the bag. Step 4) you freeze the cookies Prior to serving - you set the cookies out to thaw and enjoy after...

actually, it's generally referred to as "soft" determinism, as opposed to hard determinism.

I'll put you on my prayer list. So very sorry to hear about the cancer but happy to hear your now in remission.. :)

There are plenty of reasons people have firearms and there's no bar to having one as a Christian unless you think you would be tempted in so owning said gun to go rob a bank or commit murder. But if the fact of owning said gun is not a temptation to do evil then it's perfectly fine to own one...

In general I believe most Christians just wing it, do their best to be Christian in a secular western nation - which makes most Christians dating experience remarkably similar to the non believers. My husband and I knew one another in person, had contact with one another when with a group of...

Yeah but there's always been an air of doubt, it's why the views didn't actually gain any kind of widespread adoption. Dinner was nice (Cornish game hens.. lol) I believe I am tired though so not sure I'll make an actual post in the other thread before bed. If not I'll do so with my morning...

There were two people named John. One was John the Revelator and the other John the presbyter... It is believed that it was the second that he knew, not the Apostle, not the Revelator. Elder can be anyone.
