That's nonsense, no church ever saved anyone... Salvation comes only through Christ, that's who you follow and that's where your faith belongs.

The bible doesn't mention "abortion" by name, I'm not sure people had reached our degree of evil back then and desired to kill their unborn? The bible refers to a pregnant woman as being with child. "And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child" (2 Samuel 11:5)...

I prefer women without pants...... Seriously though, I think the bible is just telling women to be women and men to be men. Its a shame for a man to try and look like a woman and vice versa.. We should identify with the sex that we were born to be, not transition into the sex we wish to be.

Two different subjects... Abraham's descendants inherited the promised land, and many of them were anything but meek. Christ was talking about an eternal inheritance, the new earth. Both were correct, Abraham's descendants did inherit an earthly parcel of land, and Christians will inherit the...

No, I don't believe God knows.. If He did, it would negate "Whosoever believeth" (John 3:16). Our life in the flesh would be meaningless if God already knew, He could skip all this and move straight to judgement. Consider that when Abraham offered up Issac, God preempted the sacrifice and said...

Its all in context of the chaos and disorder he's addressing. People speaking in an unknown language without an interpreter benefits no one. So its not the misuse of tongues, its simply; "If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let one interpret. But if there be no interpreter, let him keep...

Its important to understand that in 1 Corinthians 14, Paul was writing to a disruptive church in Corinth. The meetings were chaos, everyone speaking at once, and in different languages with no interpreters. Paul wrote; "If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let one interpret. But if there be no...

Never stop, that would be like not caring anymore. Always wonder.. No one understands everything, but don't get discouraged by that. Just put what you can't grasp or isn't clear on a shelf, it will come to you someday. Of course, it helps to have a good bible teacher too.

Peter asked Jesus if he could come to him on the water, and the answer was yes. So what was granted to Peter was like an answer to a prayer. Later the apostles were 'given' apostolic authority to do miracles in his name, but of course without faith, they would do nothing. The era of miracles...

Many Catholics don't make reading the bible a priority because they rely on the church for salvation. Their faith is in the RCC & Pope, they confess to a Priest, so forgiveness and absolution is granted through them. When your convinced that the church is your intermediary and not Christ, you...

Good people do good and bad people do evil, but for good people to do evil, you need religion :)

I didn't have a problem.. Sometimes these boards only accept JPG formatted pictures. GIF and others won't always work?

I suspect that the temperature in the Lake of Fire is the same for everyone thrown into it.. However, I do believe heaven will be better for some.

“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.” Gandhi I also believe animals haves souls. Your soul (nephesh) is you, your being, your living personification occupying a flesh body, but your soul does not die with the flesh. I think what...

It depends on exactly what moral standards your referring to, but the basic 10 commandments are still in effect. Keep in mind that some of the OT statutes and ordinances were only applicable to the Israelites, and they were never meant to be recognized or continued by Christians. I personally...

Works demonstrate our faith "faith without works is dead" (James 2:26). Faith & belief aren't the same thing, we are saved by belief (John 3:16). Faith is the evidence of what we believe, i.e; faith is the substance (works & actions) of what we believe. "Now faith is the substance of things...

If you already know that Christians would say what you want is wrong, then you probably know that what you want is biblically wrong? Its not a matter of judging you, its simple Christian discernment of right from wrong.

Its a calling to "whosoever believeth", so imo No, God doesn't know. If God already knew what everyone would decide, all of this is vanity, and we could just skip this experiment and go straight to judgement. Consider when Abraham was stopped from sacrificing Issac; "And he said, Lay not thine...

Slandering is making false and damaging statements about someone, and that should be avoided.. But often times there are some who make ridiculous remarks that have no biblical context, and that's when "correction" should be implemented, but not personal attacks. "All scripture is given by...

He lost me with the Rapture Theory, which I don't accept.. Also, the third Temple, which I don't believe will be built.. I do believe the 3.5 years of tribulation are nearing though, but still several years off (5 to 10). We are living in good times now, as Jesus said would be like the days...
