Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture Do we really know what it means to be saved: 1 of 23
I read a few of the articles on this topic and cannot figure out why there are no verses of Scripture mentioned. I John 5:13 says that "these things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life. That word know means know! That means you can know! Jesus says in ... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Religious Speculations & Criticisms Do you need a religion to be spiritual?: 3 of 53
Religion is not one of God's favorite words! If you look in the Bible, the word religion is mentioned 5 times. Only one of the five times, it has a positive connotation. Let us look at what God says about the word religion. 1) Acts 26:5 - Religion is describing a sect of the Pharisees. 2) Galatians 1:13 - Paul is calling the ... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture Priests should be permitted to marry: 6 of 90
Who was the first Pope? Every Catholic will agree it was Peter! In Matthew 8:14, the Bible says "And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever." Whose wife's mother? Obviously Peter! So, the first Pope was married and the Pope is the example for which the Priest should copy! L... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture I've just accepted Christ ... now what?: 4 of 28
Accepting Jesus Christ as Savior is the beginning to the most wonderful life a person can live, and it is just the beginning! There are several things you should do based on what the Bible says. A person's opinion is fine but God's direction from the Bible is what you want to follow. The very first thing you should do is ge... More..
Arts & Humanities > Literature (Other) Top five books everyone must read and why: 17 of 116
I believe there are five areas of our life that we could say are the most important or at least should be. The areas that are most important to me are my spiritual life, my physical life, my relationship with my wife, my relationship with my children and my personal finances. Therefore, I will give you the best five books I ... More..
Relationships & Family > Marriage & Divorce (Other) Is not having sex with your spouse a crime: 5 of 31
I believe that every married couple should have a healthy sexual relationship. A man who wants and desires his wife to be intimate with him and then is rejected could possibly look for an alternative. I mean, this is not rocket science! If you tease a dog with a big piece of ham and then do not give it to him, if he grabs a p... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Bible Study The Bible and its interpretation: 10 of 59
I have built my life around the Bible. My dream was to be a math professor at a university until God called me to be with Him serving as a team in Bangkok, Thailand. I have studied the Bible quite extensively and believe that the Bible is the very words of God. Let me remind you that you are reading my opinion so if you disa... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Bible Study Bible: Word of God or work of the devil?: 20 of 115
I am a preacher of the Word of God and I have never used Matthew 12:31 ("Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.") as a text for preaching and would never want to. When you attribute the work of the Holy Spi... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture Are there angels among us?: 6 of 34
I believe, based on what God says, that there are angels among us. Some may stay longer than others and some may leave quickly, but how can we dismiss this truth as falsehood if the Bible says that there are. Angels unaware are mentioned several times throughout the Word of God! I have had some odd experiences in my life and ... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christian Doctrine & Issues Is it possible to understand the Bible?: 2 of 11
God is NOT the author of confusion says I Corinthians 14:33. God has written a Book for everyone to understand, including older children. If the Bible was impossible to understand, that is almost criticizing God and implying He is not capable of communicating with us. I do believe that we need to study to understand the Bible... More..
