I have seen this film as well and I agree it is well worth seeing.

I agree with Lynx and notmyown. The spiritual life changes you. The more you know about the Word, the more you have grown spiritually, the more relaxed and hopeful you get. Eternity is going to be astounding. Our confidence is not in man but God who loves us. Believers in Christ have...

Deu 21:18-21 "If any man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey his father or his mother, and when they chastise him, he will not even listen to them, then his father and mother shall seize him, and bring him out to the elders of his city at the gateway of his hometown. "They shall...

Welcome LupineMoon. I grew up with Mormons as neighbors but was never one of them. My parents were humanists, trusting in the works of men not God. But I realized their views were lacking and very shallow. I became a believer in Christ when I was 18 and the search for the truth was on. I...

Quite true. We are all in the same boat. We've all been bad friends at some point.

I recently saw the movie "The Most Reluctant Convert." It came out in 2021 so maybe this is old news. It is the story of C. S. Lewis's conversion from atheism to Christianity. I was already familiar with his conversion story but watched it through twice to pick up on some of the finer points...

I have played minecraft for several years. I use it mostly as a distraction. I have never killed the dragon because it is really hard to do and it seems pointless. What I enjoy is the creative aspect; you imagine something you could build and build it. If you don't like the way it turned out...

The world seems to be rushing towards a conclusion. Because of this my answer is somewhere between likely and possibly. We are definitely getting close.

I agree and will add to your list: Israel is ready right now to rebuild and furnish the temple which will exist in the trib. I've heard they are so prepared as to finish it in 3 months. They have been training Jews from the tribe of Levi to do the necessary temple cleansing rituals. They also...

Not at all. You make some valid points. And yes, games can be addictive, and that is really the problem. It made me think about how much time I have "invested" in them. Thanks for the post.

Sometimes I play a game as a distraction from doing something worse.

The view I have been taught is that Christ is fully God and fully human at the same time, but that He gave up the independent use of His deity and subordinated Himself to the will of the Father. He never gave up His deity. He is the God-man forever. When He did a miracle from His deity it was...

Not sure I understand where you are going with this. God created us with individual souls. Each is responsible for his own choices. This continues into eternity. Lets not make this more complicated than it has to be.

Joh 3:5 Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. (water = physical birth, as in amniotic fluid, this is not about water baptism) Joh 3:6 "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of...

To expand on what I just wrote: Adam was created complete and in perfection and in the image of God. He had fellowship with God and free will. Eventually he sinned breaking fellowship with God and becoming instantly spiritually dead. He would eventually die physically. From then on all of...

The human spirit is the immaterial part of man that Adam lost at the fall. Adam originally had 3 parts: body, soul and spirit. With the body you relate to the physical world, with the soul to other human beings, and with the spirit to God. When we are born again the Holy Spirit regenerates the...

Regeneration is being "born again" which is a work of the Holy Spirit. When a person believes in Christ he is made spiritually alive. This means he gains a human spirit by which he can now relate to God. That's what Jesus was explaining to Nicodemus in John 3.

God has no beginning and no end. He is the always existing one ( I AM that I AM). He invented time and space so created beings could have a frame of reference. He does not need it. My feeling is your question will have to wait until eternity, and even then it may be beyond our ability to...

What are some good verses on the trinity? Here is one I like a lot: Mat 28:19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,

Joh 5:21 "For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom He wishes. Joh 5:22 "For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son, Joh 5:23 so that all will honor the Son even as they honor the Father. He who...
