This reminds me of the Christmas controversy that people "spying our freedom in Christ," (Galatians 2:4) drum up to make Christians feel guilty. No the Christmas Tree is not a Druid Tree, St. Columba cut down an Oak to Oiden and miraclously a Evergreen grew in its place and He told the Gospel...

Was a major gamer back in the day. At my Youth Group where I was Youth Leader I played so much Halo with friends. My Pastor was a major gamer, so we played all the time.

That is very pretty @Magenta ! The Apostle Paul also speak of this man made tradition, "These have indeed an appearance of wisdom in promoting self-made religion and asceticism and severity to the body, but they are of no value in stopping the indulgence of the flesh." (Colossians 2:23)

"To those who are perishing, we are a dreadful smell of death and doom. But to those who are being saved, we are a life-giving perfume." (2 Corinthians 2:15)

The Papacy did not invent hell. There is many in New Testament on Hell, Jesus speaking on it extensively. https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Hell Before anyone should say, "we don't really know who wrote the gospels or epistles," well we don't really know Moses wrote books in the Old...

Well actually Render to Cesar and to God, means to give to each the proper thing they deserve. Mixing the two can actually cause you not to do either, some may resist paying taxes to Cesar out of some idea that they owe none cuz of Kingdom of the Heaven, or they became so absorbed in the...

Indeed, the unborn need an advocate. I find that song by Casting Crowns to be tragically applicable, "O America! Who says save the trees and kill the children.." We will be judged by the LORD for being silent against Molech's Return and his slaughter of the unborn. The Sexual Predators thing...

Indeed, indifference and apathy are opposite of love. At least there is hope for Misothiests, because it is possible to love and hate someone, and so they simply need love rekindled or accessed again; i.e. The God of Love to manifest to them.

I cited the wrong verse on obedience! Haha to "error is human, to forgive divine." Here is verse I meant to use to show what obedience is, "He (Satan) is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God." (Ephesians 2:1-2), and "In flaming fire, inflicting vengeance on those...

Think about it from God's perspective.. Do you think he would like to be reminded of people who spat on His Son, and rejected His free gift of Salvation. Who say no to his love? Do you when you break up with someone you love, want to be constantly reminded of the heart break?

All Creation is waiting for its day of salvation too, "For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him (Adam) who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from...

Right but the point is if God can forget sins, I believe he can forget the sinners in the Second Death once they are judged. That he will pay them no mind.

Dante had an intriguing concept in The Inferno, that Hellfire is the presence of God without the protection of the Blood of Christ. Since Hebrews says "God is a consuming fire." However, Scripture tells us Hell was created originally for the devil and his angels, "Then He will also say to those...

There is a beautiful thing Timothy Keller, the late Pastor and Theologian talks about in "Jesus The King Book," about how God Himself is Community, that is The Trinity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that it is in our nature to want to be likewise and have family, finding a spouse and...

I posted a thread about that I had fallen in love with unbeliever, and we all talked about the "unevenly yoked," passages. By the Grace of Our Lord I was delivered from a soul tie to that person when they actually turned on me and mistreated me horribly. It reminded me of the parable of Scorpion...

Something to remember, Adam in Paradise, walking with God was lonely and looking for a mate, and God made Him Eve. Even walking with God and not yet tainted by Sin, our ancestors wanted a Help Mate. And that is normal. :)

I am always reticent to mix faith and politics for our Lord said, "Therefore render to Caesar the things that are Caesar 's, and to God the things that are God 's." (Matthew 22:21) The rise of Politicanity (Christian Politics) in the US or rather Resurgent Byzantiumism bothers me immensely'...

"By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” (John 13:35)
