    Church Baptism of an Online Viewer?

    I saw this today on Facebook through one of the many pastors I follow. (If you happen to have seen this, let's leave names of people and churches out of it, please.) It raises the question, at least for me, in that is this baptism below valid? The pastor remarked that today an individual was...

    Catholics vs. Protestant Threads

    We've made a very important decision on our part, we believe, to include both Catholics and Eastern Orthodox here in the community as brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. (And rightfully so!) Unfortunately, I am seeing a trend where some cannot handle this -- and this is an issue I see on both...

    I think this becomes an argument for at least reading the formal equivalence translations (IE: ESV, NASB, NKJV, KJV): Link: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2261636/Reading-Shakespeare-Wordsworth-offer-better-therapy-self-help-books.html Obviously, this doesn't factor in the...
