    Conditional vs Eternal Salvation

    I believe in conditional salvation. Nonetheless, a lot of hope is given in that I also believe in universalism. In other words, I think most won't make it to heaven the first time, but they chances over and over. It's not Hinduism, but rather what the bible teaches - once the Greek and...

    Hateful and Racist People

    People who aren't saved are so hateful and on top of that, often racist. It's definitely an anti-witness for sure. Who would want to be like that? However, people trapped in the snare of the devil will become like that to some degree. It's simply natural to them. Thank goodness saved...

    What do you feel it is? How would you apply it to social media and other things?

    Prayer Answered Only for the Holy?

    I'd have to say "yes". However, holy isn't perfect, but only trying very hard. Anyway, it's amazing how many people think God cares about their prayer, when he doesn't. Now, I'm not saying that in a prideful way like a pharisee or something. Well, it's like this: "You have to show up to...

    Please pray for my marriage

    Thanks. It means a lot to me. My son was lost to social services, so it's tough to get back respect.

    Till the Last Penny Paid

    Supporters of eternal hell cannot get around this verse. Well one speaker said the original intent was to say "it couldn't be paid" in some sort of sarcasm. However, that doesn't make sense. Now, Catholics claim it's really about purgatory and some Universalists claim it means hell is...

    Sweet and Meek - Until Taking Power

    Radical athiests would bring up the point of how persecuted are humble, but when controlling the government - turn into monsters. How do you feel about this, being a Christian?

    Old Testament Harshness

    Radical atheists bring up the point that OT laws seemed to harsh for them and they wouldn't worship the Hebrew God, even if he did exist. Anyway, though, it is true nothing changed from the OT to the new. Jesus was not a kinder, gentler Jehovah. This is a point a lot of Christians miss...

    Old Testament Genocide

    God, generally uses the bad to punish the bad, nonetheless, God did command the Ancient Israelites to draw swords and genocide the Canaanites. This is a point brought up by radical atheists. What was the exception of the Cannanites? Was it because the evil was so horrible that it surpassed...

    The Sin of Job

    Stored Up Wrath - On Credit vs Daily Correction

    I listened to this sermon the other day and found it interesting. Basically, Christians "living the life" are corrected daily - while the sinners, though at times experiencing the wrath of God via an un-abundant life, are mostly living high-times - only to be punished "at the day of the Lord"...

    Superhuman Ability Not Needed to be a Christian

    In fact, all that is needed is prayer. I suppose that's why Jesus said his burden and yoke were light. Nonetheless, though, making prayer a top priority is something unusual alright, not like the world is doing.

    The Watchman

    The verses pertaining to this seem to be about the rapture to me. However, this seems to say if a person isn't absolutely holy, they simply aren't going. Well, that seems fair enough! Nonetheless, it's scary cause who could be 100 percent holy like a monk?

    Do people believe their prayers are enough, when they aren't?

    Possibly some think they pray enough, but the fruits exhibited by these people show otherwise.

    The Lifeline of Prayer

    "Apart from me nothing can be done by believers" said Jesus. In fact, people should pray as much as they eat and more. In fact, the works which justify believers come from prayer - and the believers are only mediums of the prayer - since Christ is really doing the works. How much prayer is...

    God as Creating Desires but Denying the Fun of Them

    Well, this is a huge propaganda message of Satan. In fact, my sister told me once that the Christian life was boring. That was her excuse. In fact, I also remember witnessing to male friends about 20 years ago - and sure enough, there rebuttal was "They just couldn't get sex and be a...

    The Prosperity Gospel

    No doubt that negativity is a tool of Satan but could also being positive? I mean, positive in regards to thinking God is all about us being prosperous - giving people the wrong idea? But what is promised in the Bible? Well, peace of mind and I suppose the ability to prosper - within reason...

    Why Christians Should Avoid Politics

    Well, one thing it's tied up too much with race. I mean, there's so much racial resentment, that a black person, seen as having special privileges (affirmative action) might not relate to a poor white person - or a white person wouldn't relate to a black person, cause they just see that person...

    Narrow-Minded Christians

    God only reveals truth to those with an open heart to it. Look at the situation with the Pharisees. In fact, people narrow-minded simply look at verses and come to their own biased conclusion - because they are narrow-minded. In my case, I think the verses regarding Christian Universalism...
