    The Bible on faith, unbelief, pride, humility, & finding Jesus

    Talk to non Christians, they almost a,ways want to know how they can earn God's favour To admit that one cannot deserve God's favour, that one has to say sorry to God and actually change. That is humbling and takes honesty, courage and a degree of desperation to do.

    We are told to let our minds be renewed and for your lives to be transformed. We meditate, think deeply about God, his character, his love, his salvation, the hope we have etc etc etc Christian meditation is never an endless repetition of a sacred word.

    What about Satan?

    Basic answer is always, talk to a Hindus, or a Buddhist or a Muslim and ask them how they view your practices with Mary and the Saints. The idolatry of the church as Islam spread was always one of the challenges Islam made to Christians.

    How many worlds filled with people has God made?

    Why does it seem likely that God would create life on other worlds? Where do you get the idea from that we will help God create a world where we will be a form of Jesus? You appear to be mixing Mormon believes with new age believes. May I suggest that you discuss these ideas with your...

    Knowing Yeshua Is To Keep His Commandments

    To love someone is a positive action one does not love passively. So it is not enough to just know Jesus, one must have faith in him and be active in serving him. The person who never attends church, never meets with Christians, who does not read the bible, does not pray for others but says...

    Has anyone had a Supernatural Encounter with the Heavenly realm?

    Why, having extraordinary experiences are not an indication of being a Christian. The consistency and quality of one's ongoing live for Jesus is what counts. Paul reports that he had amazing experiences, but they were for his benefit not for public entertainment. If you are still...

    Were Adam and Eve the first humans on Earth?

    Being the beginning of the biblical story is the beginning of the biological story. Did Jesus lie when he said that Adam was from the beginning of creation. Was Paul wrong when he said that death came through Adams sin, was there death before Adam? Why is the bible, in your view, unreliable?

    Is the BIBLE a work of CONFUSION?

    The bible is the finished work of God as his written word for man. Jesus's cry on the cross, " It is Finished. " told us he had done everything that needed to be done for our salvation. We still have to repent and recieve salvation. We still need to show our love for Jesus by our obedience...

    Is the BIBLE a work of CONFUSION?

    What you are saying is that we cannot know what is true in the bible and that is nonsense. Do you really believe that God would allow his scribes to make a mess of writing down what he told them. Yes people get their interpretation of scripture wrong, but that is a fault in them not with...

    Speaking God's Word

    Why were they posting verses from the bible? It is surprisingly common for people to just post chunks off the bible. Just that a section of a biblical book. No explanation, no application, no comme t on that passage, just some verses which are to speak to people! If God has challenged someone...

    Why is the World Silent About the Largest Genocide of Christians in History?

    Because even a secu.ar attempt to explain the wide spread persecution of Christians either risks raising the issue of what they belief or equally importantly risks angeri g important Islamic groups, hindu nations and po.itical groups. The secular west can't afford to do that.

    If they tell you that you will never get well, hand them over to the Devil permanently - that they learn not to persecute your mental health

    The person who needs to repent is yourself. Just as there are physical ailments that affect one's body, so there are ailments that affect the mind. These are not all spiritual problems. To say that psychiatrists are all servants of the devil is wrong and untrue.
