    God had given us a commandment the Tithes & Offerings. How people today followed the commandment?

    There are several instances where God has expressed a high instance in our offerings....especially ones made by our labors where we have taken great care because it was made with the intention of giving it to Him. Plus God's absolute anger and frustration of those who stand in the path of our...

    Look at what God said to Cain later when Cain needed to master his sin. His offering was what was expected of him. And my fear of God is healthier than most. You are reading into my posts things that are not true whatsoever. STOP.

    Cain's offering was accepted....just not emphasized and a big deal made over it by God. Abel's was. Cain was accepted for his offering....as well as his offering. Abel's was just miles ahead of Cain's. That's why God was making a fuss about it. And as the Firstborn he was supposed to...

    One other thing.... And I don't like politics or politicians much. But currently every Westernized, free market and Communist society believes that they are entitled to more of our Wages than God asks of us. And they take it at the point of a gun and incarceration. It was a major point of...

    Ummmm Things Dedicated to God have become God's....and as such we need to be very very careful with them.

    Is it enough to just believe in Jesus?

    Satan believes God and Jesus exists....and is scared of that fact.

    Iran attacks Israel, sends hundreds of drones, missiles

    I say it was an earlier date....so: Me. Circulation was a bit delayed but internal evidence suggests it as well as historical evidence. Many people believe it was written all in one sitting....I do not. I also do not believe that John's hand held the pen. (Paper was expensive. Ink wasn't...

    "Grave Robber" is a song currently playing on the Contemporary Christian top 20 at the moment. Maybe this is why this zombie thread has been brought to life. Zombies have been very popular lately. So long as we don't have a zombie apocalypse....we will survive.

    Site keeps crashing

    I was being facetious. (Making a joke) Garbage is an English word meaning "rubbish". I'm well aware that since I created the word out of the emanations from the penumbra that it's not actually German. Jokes don't always translate well across languages. There are some German words I...

    It's a German word....actually a contraction for "kaputengarbage" (I'm full of manure but it sounds good doesn't it?)

    Biblical Polygamy?

    No thanks. I got one wife and she is MORE than enough. Don't wanna be hen-pecked. I enjoy my quiet and peaceful life and lifestyle. More than one wife plus kids? I'm outa there. Becoming a workaholic becomes really appealing.

    Why Its Easier to Make Unbelieving Friends?

    Because the heathen have learned the concept of grace so much better than most Christians do. That's it in a nutshell. And as far as holding back in reserve for newbies? OK....the "Christian crowd" ALWAYS has a few nut jobs running around. And until they know exactly how nuts you...

    A husband of one wife...

    Adultery was punished by stoning. Both the man and the woman. No need for a divorce. And look carefully at what the KJV says here. Don't read something that is not there. IOW do not equate "put away" with divorce. Those are two completely separate things....often related but NOT the...

    A husband of one wife...

    Actually it does.... WE are the ones who change the names and functions. Accountability partners and small groups are doing the work of deacons....but we elect and appoint others to be deacons who then don't do the job originally intended which is what Accountability partners and small groups...

    It was something of a joke. Titus being stationed in Crete....marriage was the least of his worries. And Timothy as well as Titus were not married. Neither was Luke. You do not have to be married to be an accountability partner....but it helps. You can have women as an accountability...

    A husband of one wife...

    We are not going to allow polygamists today to be deacons. One, it's illegal activity. Two, the reason why the Law of Moses had polygamy was for the welfare of the women and to grow their families larger and grow the population. (A case for legalized polygamy today with our declining...
