    What do you find controversial?

    I guess, I tried to post a controversial thread recently about Christianity and it got removed probably because my profile says that I’m unsure about whether I’m a Christian or not. So I started this thread because I wanted to ask you all as individuals... what part or parts of Christianity do...

    In love with Jesus?

    Every time I think about this thread I keep singing the DC Talk song, “I’m into Jesus”

    Gospel or theology?

    We are to share the Gospel with people, but when does the Gospel become theology? What is the good news anyway, and how do you separate this good news from religion?

    Yep! That’s why I posted the thread. One line that gets people to think is very powerful.

    God honours you not because of what you do alone, but because you let Him in to work with you.

    Your fear makes you selfish.

    Compromise and value

    I guess, Christians compromise the most. All of us want world peace, but are not likely to get it on our lifetime, so we settle for trying to have peace at home. At least peace at home may be attainable.

    Compromise and value

    I hear it all the time about people being in things and doing things because they believe that they don’t deserve better or are valuable enough to get better. In our sinful nature we don’t deserve anything, but God graciously gives us everything we need for life and godliness. So how do you hold...

    How do you build your connection with God?

    The world’s way is to meditate. Meditate in Christianity means to mutter. We are to go through our day meditating on scripture or muttering scripture under our breathe. I think Paul said the same thing in a slightly different way. He called this muttering “praying continually with all manner of...

    When to let go-when to hold on?

    Yep. I’m in therapy now. It’s going to take some time though. One thing I learned is that our time is finite and we don’t have enough time to put into some people to see them change and see them get better. We have to use our time wisely, and personally getting healthy is a good use of that time...

    When to let go-when to hold on?

    I’m in a situation like you’re daughter. What you grew up with and learned to cope with appears normal, but we need to do more than cope through life.

    Born Again Speaking in Tongues

    Ravi Zacharias said, “information to a person who loves the truth not is just ammunition.” I guess, this is why Jesus remained silent most of the time He was being judged, whipped and crucified.

    Counting Costs

    Fag is a cigarette in England. I always have to stop and figure out which culture and time is the word used in. A lot of times what is innocent to one is offensive to someone else.

    If you want to know who a man really is watch how he treats his enemies.

    Affliction shall not rise the second time.

    Affliction as in the wrath of God, we absolutely won’t have that, but sorrow, trouble and strife, yes. “In this world we will have tribulation”. Yet any tribulation for a Christian is producing a greater glory. (I’m condensing a whole lot of Bible scriptures and passages here, so please don’t...

    Lets laugh together!

    What is “mother resting face”? It’s that look a mother gets on her face when she’s thinking, “please don’t let that be my kid.”

    Backslided? Have you ever turned away from God?

    Ah! If we can’t separate Jesus from Christians, I’m sure we’d all be atheists.
