Let's put it this way @NicoleSolid9 You are showing midriff in your profile photo and that's fine. It's perfectly acceptable in the right circumstances (workouts, beach, lake, barbecues and lounging around) but definitely not all. However, my sister went to a concert recently...a year or so...

Pastors love to preach sermons.... And the church services often make a pastor's sermon the centerpiece of the service over and above everything else. BUT Even if you were to listen to a year's worth of sermons it still doesn't change your normal day-to-day behavior much at all. But a day with...

Yeah....they came to an agreement because he got bored showing up to court....it literally wasn't the money. He could outspend the government in legal fees and lawyers. The Government was literally sorry they picked up the case. So they made a deal....and Bill learned the joys of being a...

.....Great Commission ......baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God and was God. ....and the Word Became flesh and made His dwelling with men. He was the Light of men.... Those that received him, those who...

Depends upon where they live. I got friends everywhere and they have friends even further covering the globe. If they live near me I'd take them with me on Sunday. I got a nice welcoming church where the pastor teaches and preaches an evangelistic sermon every Sunday. Then we have a Sunday...

I do not and have not ever embraced reformed theology. The only way the subject for me has come up is discussing the history of the English translation of scriptures. That's just history....I don't necessarily like all that has happened but I can't change it. Besides God was in control and...

I don't preach reformed doctrine or Calvinism. Nothing at all like that. In fact I teach hermeneutics that clearly demonstrate Calvinism and Arminianism both are wrong. And in John's Gospel there's a major story that addresses this very theology repackaged and repurposed. (Just saying)...

I'm trying to warn you because it's going to suck to be you one day when you figure it out. Peter once thought that mixing in a bit of legalism with what Jesus taught him was a great idea....until Paul had to straighten him out. And it really sucked to be Peter that day I assure you. Had...

Yeah....if little William Gates had actually finished his college education he might have learned that some of the things he did to grow his company were illegal.

"Private interpretation "? I really wouldn't characterize it as that.... More like an interpretation after using scissors on the scriptures. Here's the translation he might have used....

The things I revealed about the Gospels require a skill called hermeneutics. Hermeneutics is a blend of the sciences (history, anthropology, geography and etc) and arts to really understand the scriptures in full context. 2,000+ years ago writing was something very very expensive to do. A...

Jesus claimed to be God and referred to both the Holy Spirit and God the Father. So. Is the OP claiming Jesus is a liar and imposter? Because Jesus most definitely was not a liar or an imposter. Obviously the OP wants something less than a God who knows him very well.

Mark himself. The Gospel of Mark is not really Mark's story to begin with. It's the stories Peter told that Mark wrote down as encouraged by Ireneus or someone before he died. Mark was a non-stop companion of Peter's during and after Jesus's ascension into Heaven....Peter often repeated...

Just remember.... I warned you all I could....tried to get you to stop...you refused and doubled down. Unfortunately I know the consequences of your actions....it is not going to be pleasant.

The part left out of the parable of the various soils was the preparation of the soil to begin with. The 7th year Sabbath for the field that the seed was sewn into. Meaning that God was diligently working for the salvation of your precise soul 6 generations before you were born. (Many of us...

Ummmm.... Nope....don't do anything like that. I'm rather boring in many ways. I take care of my house, go to church on Wednesdays and Sundays and cook dinners for friends and family. (Recovering chef) Ive had the same new years resolution that I can't seem to keep of needing to drink more...

So... Got any tattoos? Pierced ears? Listen to music too loudly? Eat junk food? Over eat at Thanksgiving? Skip leg day at the gym? Read too much? It's legalism...it's holding others to a level that you are unwilling to hold yourself to. Jesus was quite specific about doing this...

I'm fully aware of what doctors and scientists say. How can a person not know? It's been blasted in the media for decades. On every pack of cigarettes and advertisement everywhere. But that's NOT the question now is it? Is it a sin that separates a person from a relationship with God? My...

Maybe we should stick to the Jesus diet of Bread, Wine, Fish, lamb, and honeycomb. These are the only things Jesus was recorded as eating.... Or the John the Baptist diet of Locust and Wild honey. Poor old Sampson didn't get any grapes.

It's not what goes into the body that makes one unclean but what comes out of the heart. People don't get inebriated from tobacco use like they do from recreational drugs or alcohol. And... if your logic was actually true if you ever eat a meal that is not perfectly balanced or fail to...
