    USA Trump on Muslims

    I disagree with it. I think it's ridiculous and borders on 1930s Germany some of the things he suggests or refuses to dismiss(the database for Muslims in America, for example). We in the West are notoriously bad at paying attention to history and learning from our mistakes. Let's hope this...

    Oh you people working so hard for salvation

    This sounds to me like universalism and that's one of the most dangerous doctrines around.

    Oh you people working so hard for salvation

    There's a fine line between accepting Christ died for us and thinking we don't have anything to do ourselves. May as well do away with repentance if that's the case...

    unrepentant sin is unforgiven sin (moved from Off Topic)

    I disagree with repentance being a gift from God. Repentance is the action, grace is the gift.

    Gifts from God, tongues, and recent claims made by 'prophets' and 'miracle workers'

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPvs_psxx7Q This is a great interview on the matter, also by MacArthur. He highlights "Any man that wishes to come after Me, let him first deny himself". Faith is about self-denial, not self-fulfillment.

    Folk with a good denomination ought to tell others about it.

    Some denominations are fundamentally different and, as the previous poster said, formed in contrast of the RCC. Personally I believe Catholics are in need of evangelism(I don't consider them saved, by and large) as well and I know a good number of reformed Christians agree, so evangelism and...

    What country has the best school systems?

    Depends. Scandinavian countries are great, but for purely results with little care for the well-being of the children; Asia. Under-postgraduate; USA and UK. USA has more high-rated universities(a given, considering the population) but the UK is often competing or occupying the top spot and for...

    Commuting to work...what seems like a long time to you?

    15-30 minutes. No longer.

    Do you buy refurbished things?

    I don't trust it and it rarely comes with the same warranty. Often times it isn't even that much cheaper anyway so I normally just buy new or if it's a book and not something I am too fussed about, I'll buy second-hand where I can.

    The holidays

    It is always tough, but the converse would be taking that event to celebrate their life as well :)

    Prayer Site name

    Why not "Miserere Mei"? It also means "Have mercy on me" but in Latin and probably more memorable to people that have heard Miserere Mei, Deus.

    Which Gospel speaks to you the most?

    "my times up for this week . go read the bible but this time .. OBEY what you read ." Brother Alithis, that's awfully rich considering how you just conducted yourself toward another who professes Christ. You talk of obedience and yet you disobey the command of being charitable. Go read...

    The holidays

    I never liked them all that much but now I've taken more of a shine to them. I found myself disliking them as a matter of that's what I'd told myself 'I did' and in many ways became quite bitter. But now I just enjoy them :)

    Southern Baptist

    "I wouldn't see a real need to add one since we do have a Baptist. What would be the reasoning?" It's more of a cultural thing. I think there are some distinctions that I am sure many SB's can appreciate. It was just a thought. Not to worry. I don't know what it takes to change things on...
