    Ananias and his wife....aren't we all like that.....

    With respect, yes, you are wrong. Here are verses 3-4: Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it...

    Care to elaborate? Or, as the previous responder intimated, are you just here to stir the pot?

    1st john 5:7

    Welcome to CC... FYI, responding to a thread that has been dormant for nine years is not recommended. The date of the last post is in the upper left.

    Is The Earth Flat Or Round?

    Speaking of Australia, the fact that shadows fall toward the North at locations South of the Tropic of Capricorn is proof that the North-centric flat Earth model is wrong. I have posted photos showing such on this site.

    Cop Flees While DUI - 111 MPH

    Defunding the police definitely is not the solution. It is a very difficult job: officers have to deal frequently with the lowest members of society having their worst days. Both our countries protect freedom of speech (rightly) but hurling objects and striking others are still crimes and should...

    Cop Flees While DUI - 111 MPH

    I have watched many "accountability" videos, including the one in the OP (prior to seeing it here). If there is one thing I have learned from all those videos, it's that there is a terrible culture of entitlement and misguided assumption of authority among police that is not backed up by...

    How Many Here Have Been Baptized?

    I was dunked in a lake. This is probably a good place to share a funny story... A family member asked me to baptize him. He preferred a quiet spot without an audience, so we went to a secluded (ocean) bay. Though the day was warm, the average water temperature is about 4 Celsius, so he got...

    Is The Earth Flat Or Round?

    Behold, the arrogance of ignorance. You paid attention in school well enough to recall being taught that the earth is a ball, but missed the part when they taught about gravity. You also missed much of your grammar education, but we can excuse that for now.

    Are Former Christians Who Later Became Murderers and Anti-Christians Still Saved?

    The primary problem with your scenario is that you assume individual Christians became murderers and anti-Christian. That's unsupportable. Yes, Germany and Russia were strongly Christian, but that doesn't mean individual Christians were actively responsible either for the change or for the...

    Family Nights

    Yahtzee, Dominoes (several variations), and lately, Ticket To Ride. Camel Up and Settlers of Catan make frequent appearances too.

    Family Nights

    I married (again) recently. We have been enjoying table games several evenings each week. It's not the most original idea, but if your family generally "gets along", it's a great way to build relationships.

    Matthew 25:42 and how you vote

    Social Security, Medicare, and food stamps are all forms of socialism, which is government-mandated "charity". Although they mimic the care Christians are to show for our fellow believers and, to some degree, for all people, they are not inherently expressions of Christian faith because there is...

    What Is A Genuine Christian?

    A genuine Christian is a person who has put their faith in Jesus Christ for remission of sin and eternal life. As another poster noted, whether that person is a mature Christian is a completely separate question. Also, whether that person lives in a way consistent with that belief is a separate...

    What Is A Genuine Christian?

    So, if I am following your line of argumentation, a genuine Christian is one who perfectly follows the ten commandments, and those who do not do so are not Christians? If I have summarized your position correctly, I have only one thing to say: You have much to learn.
