    Tree Stump Removal

    The copper sulphate can be poured into holes bored into the top of the tree stump immediately. We had a smaller tree removed a few years back and the tree surgeon applied the copper sulphate immediately to kill the root. The stump is still in the ground though because it is adjacent to a...

    Tree Stump Removal

    It depends how big the root is and where it is located. As you mention an oak tree I assume this is not a small root. You can also use copper sulphate solution to kill the root system before attempting the heavy lifting and cutting work. If you live in a rural area you might check for a...

    Hi I’m Dianna!

    Dia, you may have realised by now that this place has a very mixed bunch of folks here. The great thing, in my view is that even though we may not always agree, we manage to accept that we all care and want to offer honest views. The task for you is to decide what speaks to you and what God is...

    Hi I’m Dianna!

    Well that depends on your view of church bible study groups really. Let's remember she has been burned before. Pete from Peterborough UK

    Hi I’m Dianna!

    The world is full of people with good advice about how you should live your life. In my experience the only way you will really learn what God wants for your life is to learn to listen to Him, not necessarily the people who profess loudly to know what God wants. Pete from Peterborough UK

    Hi I’m Dianna!

    Hi Dia, welcome to our community. I too was raised in the RC tradition and after some issues with a priest decided that I could live without it and spent 10 years without a faith and then later rediscovered Christianity. At that time I became an evangelical Anglican and since then have...

    Christians in the modern world

    Yes I have also heard those texts explained that way. But let's not lose sight of the fact that Our Lord said the time of the end is not known to anyone except God, so my opinion is we are better off focusing on things we can change than worrying about things that may happen, and if they do...

    Christians in the modern world

    Why would we fear something which our God has told us is not the end? You are right there is great knowledge and progress in our modern world but there is also great inequality and injustice too. In my opinion the great threat to Christians in our modern world is not nuclear holocaust, but...

    War Movies

    Saving Private Ryan is among the best, if he likes older productions then the Great Escape is good too Pete from Peterborough UK

    Can heaven keep up with technology?

    Brother, my post was not meant to be an accolade for John Eldredge, although I do respect and agree with most of what he says and writes. My point was simply that we have lost something in our post modern world where we either dissect the words to see if they match exactly with our...

    Can heaven keep up with technology?

    Now that is a good question, and it feeds into the subject of a book I recently read: All Things New by John Eldredge. The view the author expresses is that when God says in Revelation Behold I make all things new, He actually means ALL things. Heaven will be everything we love now, but...

    Iran deal

    Well to be fair, we do not really know what his decision is going to be. I am not an American citizen, so I do not have any axe to grind regarding how the American people vote, but this president has become known for one thing - he does not always do what you expect! Pete from Peterborough UK

    Baptized for the dead

    That is an interesting exposition of the text, but I think you are being far too intricate in your efforts to prove something that simply does not need to be proven. I heard a different explanation of this same text, presumably by someone wishing to demonstrate that those who had died before...

    How often do you go to church?

    Very rarely. Usually for funerals or weddings. I have become disillusioned with churches, to me they are not fulfilling their biblical purpose any more and seem to only be interested in supporting themselves and their particular programme. So since they were not interested in supporting my...

    "What if Christianity is Wrong?"

    It is an odd sort of question really, after all if there turns out to be 'nothing' after death as your questioner posited then there would be nobody to know that there was nothing and the question is moot. It does rather beg the response to his question though: If there is nothing then I have...
