A little light hearted discussion wasn't sure if this was the place but here it is.. The bible gives us some guidelines such as the prohibition of full blown crossdressing, homosexuality and a few basics, however so much is labeled by society, some of which doesn't correspond to anything in the...

No I don't think it's sinful to drink coffee, until it becomes to much of a thing in your life, or the habit starts causing health issues or cost too much or interferes with our walk. it's an easy thing to overlook since it isn't talked about directly in the bible, but like anything else It can...

We're going over it again, so I though I'd read ahead this time something stuck with me that hasnt before. 17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not...

Been doing some reading lately on the whole tongues thing. Coming from a baptist background much of this philosophy is new to me, hopefully actual Pentecostals will reply. As I understand it most mainstream Pentecostals seem to believe there's two forms of the holy spirit. One that occurs at...

It's recently been on my mind the subject of what constitutes stumbling blocks in the bible. From going through what I could find, it seems to be referring primarily to two things, either causing someone else to sin, or trying to get someone else to violate their conscience. Would I be correct...

The situation is that my workplace will be ceasing operations at the end of the year. Pray I get this sorted out be it a sudden economic shift, or find somewhere else.

So it's that homosexual month and despite my efforts to ignore it, one got into my facebook feed. It was a photo of what I'm guessing was intended as a wedding gag, it showed a woman in suit and a man in a wedding dress. Being a reactionary I posted a comment, noting a lot of complaints...

I told someone on here awhile back that I bought a kilt. I wear it mostly for church and dance class. Below is a much less fancy skirt for warm weather when I go target shooting or something. Anyone else wear Kilt/skirts/robes/etc?

There's no pleasure in it anymore, but what with feeling down in the dumps one of my old sinful habits is getting the better of me. Prayer to resist.

17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” We see lots of...

For those who occasionally go see movies or watch shows, finding out about the content of some shows and movies can be difficult sometimes. IMDB isn't always concerned about if a movie has offensive content in it, at least as far as Christians are concerned. Unless you've seen it before, you may...

I never thought this was a thing, but I guess for some it is, Why is it? I always thought it was a simple explanation for verses like "Anyone who has seen me has seen the father"?

Pass worded myself out of the computer. This is to free up wasted time on family things project, bible time, as well as putting the curb on temptations that the devil has been having a little too much luck with. My computer time boils down to at work only, So I'll only be online at work and...

for the righteous falls seven times and rises again, but the wicked stumble in times of calamity. this is a good encouragement verse for when you've screwed up.

For times when regular skirts won't do, I finally ordered my first real kilt from USA Kilts, semi traditional in steward black modern. plan to use it for square dance, occasionally at church and possibly Scottish county dancing, pretty much anything requiring something a touch more formal. Any...

need prayers to resist temptation to sin.

For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first. For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of...

I never thought I'd have to defend myself for wearing a costume to church. I was given a long cloak with a hood as a gift and I figured I'd use it for my Halloween costume this year. When looking for something to wear with it to make it look more like something a medieval monk would wear I...

Hebrews 6 4-8 is often taken as a falling away that can't be repented of, I think Hebrews 10:29 is where it's really at though. A behavior of someone who flat won't repent and has ditched their belief in Christ completely. How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who...

From doing the work of the father in heaven. Short story years ago she had a disagreement with a few people at church, since then she's pretty much vowed to never get involved with the church again. This might have been fine if she was active in other ways, praying, reading the bible, something...
