It, imho, is surrendering everything to God in prayer. 1John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

I am not proficient in the Calvinist doctrine. Maybe one of our Calvinist brothers can explain it simply so we can understand it.

Yes, I think the Calvinist believe this.

Yes! People think they are "good enough" on their own because they don't do this or that, not recognizing that their own righteousness is as filthy rags before God. When they are confronted with their sinfulness, they get defensive in their self righteousness and say Christians are being...

Amen :amen: And don't forget to forgive. I think it was Rens who said set some healthy boundaries. :) We have a saying at our church. " Some people you have to love out of a long handled spoon." I always add, "Some you have to love out out of a shovel." Sometimes the things that cause us to...

Amen! :amen: :amen:! they may look alike but are different at the root.

I think we should also pray and ask God to save the Islamic terrorists. That is the best way to destroy them. The scripture tells us that our struggle is not against flesh and blood.

I would say like this Cass. Our Father, through love and grace, sent Lord Jesus to save all of humanity, but, mankind must receive Him, believe on Him. So, you have those who believe and those who don't. To the ones who believe He gives the right to become new creations/born again sons of God...

:lol: No, not too dramatic. But, God gave the command (Law) for Noah and his sons to be fruitful and multiply. But Noah did not have any more children after the flood. Why?

I don't have words but, I will try. When you think of the king, the king's word is the law. In the beginning it was be fruitful, multiply, replenish the Earth, don't eat from the tree of knowledge and evil, etc.Things were simple. Then, sin came and things got complicated. The people prior to...

Yep, that is how the other airlines handle it.

:cake: Happy birthday to you Krissy Cakes!:happybirthday2:

When Israel demanded a king, Our Father was grieved at their rejection of Him as King. It seems that man has rejected the Heavenly Kingdom many times in the past. He said to Samuel 1 Samuel 8:7 And the Lord said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee...

Yes, another good thread. I will start another one about this as well. But the idea that God is King and the King's word is law, that means every command from our Father is law, Right?

Flying is really a hassle for me. First I have to be two hours before my flight, then security, then the wait, as I am a non-paying passenger and can be bumped. I am never sure whether I am going to fly as scheduled. I sit and wait until the plane is boarded waiting for my name to be called. It...

I found the above quote very profound. It forced me to ask myself the question. Was the law in effect before Moses? And I had to go all the way back to the Garden. When I examine my own Christian walk and think about how Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden, I am blown away by the awesomeness of...

:rofl3:

I love this thought sister. I would like to discuss this further on another thread as to not derail this one. Do you mind my using this thought on another thread relevant to it?
