Liberal philosophy nullifies the following; “The worker deserves his wages” (1 Timothy 5:18 ) "the worker deserves his wages" (Luke 10:7) "the worker is worth his keep" (Matthew 10:10) "If any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is...

"Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints" (Revelation 19:7-8). So it seems...

Fundamentalism is the literal interpretation of the bible.

I don't see the U.S. getting involved in Iraq again. The president has already pledged "no boots on the ground". Obama is a pacifist, he didn't get involved in Syria and I highly doubt he'll interfere in Iraq. He may be right, there's no resolving these religious wars, let the Sunni and Shia...

I believe evil is the result of sin, and since I've sinned, I reckon I'm responsible for the evil resulting from sin..

The commandments of Christ embody all ten of the original ones. We can't keep his greatest commandment (love God) without keeping the first 4 commandments listed in the OT. And if we love our neighbor as ourselves, we would automatically keep the other six commandments.

"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition" (2 Thessalonians 2:3). "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to...

I believe we all have free will... If not, then God is responsible for sin. "For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you" (Matthew 6:14). Consider that forgiving others is a choice, and a condition of the Father forgiving us. Free will...

Its not unusual to be dissatisfied in our human condition, I don't think we are intended to be content in the flesh, its why we seek something better. But as Solomon said, for everything there is a time and purpose. Perhaps God has a purpose for us, a destiny we're unaware of? So its not our...

I'm just curious, do any of you pray for non-Christians who request that you pray for them? I reckon Jesus did when he said, "Father, forgive them: for they know not what they do" (Luke 23:34). But then he also prayed; "I pray for them (disciples): I pray not for the world, but for them which...

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.... And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us" (John 1:1&14). If the bible is God's Word, then adhering to the Word is tantamount to worshipping God. We know God through His Word, so I voted "No" since one...

I'd agree that Christians with blow horns at a sporting event are a turn-off to most people. In my experience, people don't respond well to threats of hellfire, its the Fred Phelps methodology where over-exuberant radicals pronounce judgement. Its condemning, not helpful. Jesus was meek and...

Imo, there's no such thing as "inner knowing", just inner faith. God gave us His Word, and He gave it to us at a great expense (blood). You may be asking for too much personal attention, we've already heard from God via His Word and Holy Spirit, so perhaps the answer to your 2 years of prayers...

Osteen is an inspirational and motivational speaker, but if you want to learn anything biblical, he's not much of a preacher. He makes people feel good about themselves, therein lies his popularity. jmo

Well, if you don't trust him, I'd just call him every night and make sure he's alone. If he doesn't answer, make a trip to the motel and knock on the door. But the bottom line is that if cheating is in his heart, it will happen sooner or later. Whether he remains faithful must emanate from...

Temptations of the flesh are natural at your age when your hormones are in overdrive. I don't believe you need help from others, you just need to exercise a little self-control. Pornography isn't an addiction, its a desire. Natural lust are controlled by your mind (spirit), its that discipline...

I'd trust your spouse until they give you a definitive reason not to trust them. Employers dictate the rules, and they obviously don't want family there as a distraction. You can't babysit your husband because you don't trust him, and keep in mind, he's leaving you alone too, so he obviously...

"And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span" (1 Samuel 17:4). Converted into more modern measurements, using an 18" cubit, this puts Goliath's height at 9' 6", and if using a 21" cubit, just over 11' tall...
