Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture Newborns and heaven: A discussion of baptism as a requirement: 1 of 47
Some hold to the teaching and belief that one must be baptized in order to be saved. This is not seen as a mere step of obedience, but rather that baptism is essential for salvation. Here it will be called, "baptismal regeneration." Is this teaching found in the Bible? First, we should ask a basic question when it comes to sa... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Atheism & Agnosticism Disbelief in prayer: 2 of 15
Why Doesn't God Heal Amputees?Perhaps you have heard this question posed by those who desire to show that God does not exist.The rationale is this:Since God answers prayer, certainly there has been a believer who has had enough faith to pray for healing (really re-growing) of an amputeed limb. Since there are not any recorded... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Thoughts on God How does the religious view of creation (intelligent design) make sense?: 5 of 28
I have seen several points made by evolutionists against creationism/Intelligent Design (I.D.). As one who believes in I.D., I would like to state some of the more common objections that I have seen along with a response.1. I.D. has no scientific support.This is simply not true. There are scientists who hold to I.D. And they ... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Atheism & Agnosticism The case against atheism: 6 of 28
First, let's look at some of the reasons people use for not believing in God with responses:1. People believe in God because they were brought up that way. What of the thousands (millions?) of people who came to believe in God as adults and were not raised in religious homes?2. People who believe in God are holding to a naive... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture Going to heaven or hell only depends on you: 14 of 44
Some complain that while God has given people free will whether or not to believe in Him, it isn't much of a choice. Since the only 2 options are Heaven or Hell the idea of true free will strikes some as being ridiculous and unfair.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />A couple of comm...

Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture Christians speaking in tongues: 12 of 34
First off, it should be made clear that I have no problem with people speaking in tongues today. I believe that the spiritual gifts are still for today, God does perform miracles today and He visits unbelievers in dreams. Granted, there has been a sad amount of abuse of the gift of tongues, but this does not mean that speakin... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Religious Speculations & Criticisms Evaluating faith healing: 6 of 17
I believe that God can and does heal today. The point of this article is to show that God does not desire for all people to be healed all the time. Some Christians believe that God desires everyone to be healed, and they could, if they only had enough faith. With 8 points I would like to show that this is not biblical:1. Who ... More..
Society & Lifestyle > Gender Issues Should we approve of same sex marriage?: 59 of 144
Those who are in favor of same sex marriage have many reasons for their belief; yet none of their reasons compels me enough to change my view.There seems to be eight main reasons for being in favor of same sex marriage. Four are stated positively (showing the benefits of such a marriage) and four are stated negatively (showin... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Faith in God: 62 of 146
For one still searching...My prayers fly up to the Father above.I know that He is listening.My soul cries out for you.A tear falls. Two. Three.You hear my music.But don't know why I play.You see my dance.But you forget it the moment it's over.What can I do?What can I say?I pray for you.Yet you seem so far away.Not one like me...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Christian: 135 of 296
Jesus is always with me.In the morning when I wake, His sun shines to greet me.Through the day He is here.From the rain that refreshes and brings life, to the fog that cools, andwraps the gentle works of His hands like a present.When his sun sets He is with me with the colors of the sky.He creates His work.Slowly, carefully n...
