    My agnostic friend says: "I don't need it." - How would you respond?

    What I sincerely meant is, being a christian is a constant fight. Do not think, that my wife, because she is simple in what refers to god, does not have to fight. It may for all of us be different. Poverty, sickness, nothing to eat, deception, temptation... I think I unsubscribe. I have the...

    From Saturday to Sunday, what are the reasons given.

    I think you do mix up something - there were Jews and there were non Jews as Christians. This caused in the first century a lot of trouble. When Paul (or somebody else) was preaching they FIRST went to the Synagogue and of course on Saturday. When you read that the Jews were not interested or...

    From Saturday to Sunday, what are the reasons given.

    What are you talking. Acts said very clearly for the first non-Jews, who became Christians to do the following: They wrote this letter for them to deliver:[j] “From:[k] The apostles and the elders, your brothers To: Their gentile brothers in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia. Greetings. 24 We have...

    Is freewill real or just something we invented it ?

    We all have free will - and use it every day. The problem is, that God knows everything in advance. So in the end, he already knows, how we use our free will and where we will end up. See here: All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast—all whose names have not been written in the...

    Is freewill real or just something we invented it ?

    JW? The question is useless. He died for us exactly as foreseen. If its a stake, a cross - does not make any difference.

    From Saturday to Sunday, what are the reasons given.

    I simply go by Romans 14, who says: Give a warm welcome to any brother who wants to join you, even though his faith is weak. Don’t criticize him for having different ideas from yours about what is right and wrong. For instance, don’t argue with him about whether or not to eat meat that has...

    Interesting that the Bible is "the Word of God", unless someone quotes a translation you disagree with.

    As an ex-JW I really take care, what translation I read and often use the word-to-word translation (Coine-English). See the differences in John 1.1 and Matt. 5: New World Translation, JW: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god.  This one was in the...

    Where the unbelievers go when they physically die? (An Amillennial Prespective)

    I asked this question... First what do we talk about? Soul or spirit? What I realized, there are way too many NDE experiences who do not correspond to the Bible. So I do not believe one word - even if some seem correct. But one thing is sure - after the second resurrection, when Satan is...

    Who Is The Antichrist? A Biblical Prespective.

    This is what I found in Wikipedia - and it was interesting for me to see the word Anti exactly explained. So, taking this into account I think I know what to expect. The word Pseudo told me a lot. Look here: The Antichrist (the figure on the left, with the attributes of a king) by Herrad of...

    can you taste the prayer longing

    Longing for prayer is a good wording - I sometimes pray, cry, laugh... and often just talk (when in nature). And then I feel nearness - and not left alone. And often I make music for this feeling. When depressive phases come - this helps...

    if the lord GOD will marry me to someone she must have no children and be kind and social and holy somewhat either case i get her in heaven perfect !

    And a funny story about her: When she came to Juba, she flew for the first time in her life. When the plane was about to land, she thought, in Addis Ababa only children were living, as the houses were so small.... Yes, we had a lot to laugh: But SHE brought me back to God - after 30 years being...

    He died in a motorbike accident. I know the difference. The kids do not even know him. Son was 1 year, daughter still in the womb.

    I used to be a strong Christian then I lost my faith and now it came back, however???

    What you write reminds me just of one thing: The story of the lost son. I sincerely believe it was not written (and said) without reason. Recall Peter, who denied Jesus three times and "went out and cried bitterly". The bible is full of stories of RETURN. Read them. Otherwise I am in the same...

    if the lord GOD will marry me to someone she must have no children and be kind and social and holy somewhat either case i get her in heaven perfect !

    God gave me the poorest women (widow) with two children (without father). She suffered from severe depressions, when I met her (2008 in N'Djamena) and had not eaten since 2 days - nor the kids. I employed her first as a "housekeeper", then I helped her a little: we bought a plot of land in NDJ...

    Bravo - exactly what I think. In fact, things are easy. Why do we make it always so complicated?

    Who Is The Antichrist? A Biblical Prespective.

    I just found the word Antichrist 3 times in my online Bible (there was one comment, who found 4) - but all of them are in 1 and 2 John. I think, that sometimes we, as humans, take ourselves much too important. The real war and question is not here - it's in heaven. And it is not the question of...

    Healthy Eating Thread.

    Did you ever try to find out, what the first Christians were eating? I checked and it was mostly mediterranian fish diet. There were no such things as rice, potatoes, coffee etc. A lot of fruits, olives and olive oil, fish, bread, some spices, wine... It's very interesting to see, what you could...

    Bible reading plans

    94 days - very simple. I make juice fasting. I only drink tea, or water with fruit juice (I bought a real expensive machine for that). I mean, not only fruit juice, but as well vegetable juice - mixed with water. This is enough and you can go up to 100 days as a max. - At least this is what I...
