    Jo's friendship corner. Everyone welcome

    Sci Fi stories are mainly aimed at males and probably young ones. They are all "boys own tales of adventure". I may be wrong but I am told that females prefer "girls own tales of romance" :)

    the meaning of Baptism

    Albert Barnes writes Acts 18:8 And Crispus - He is mentioned in 1Co 1:14 as having been one of the few whom Paul baptized with his own hands. The conversion of such a man must have tended greatly to exasperate the other Jews, and to further the progress of the Christian faith among the...

    Continuing on with Acts 16:31-34 Albert Barnes writes Acts 16:31 Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ - This was a simple, a plain, and an effectual direction.

Since she had a home in Philippi she may have moved there or had a household there for when she travelled to the city - Philippi being a Roman colony...

    Proof texting

    Is it proof texting to quote a verse or a short passage that clearly teaches some point of theology? Is it good sound biblical and truthful texting to quote a log passage and then declare "see that verse really means what I said it means" or "see, proof that the verse doesn't mean what you...

    The Triune God.

    No child of God can be haughty about the Holy Trinity because no one discovered it or carefully reasoned it out it was revealed by God little by little and line by line here a little and there a little until it was clear enough for a child to see. God is one and God is Father, Son, and Holy...

    What Is Sin?

    The trouble with proof texting as you have done in the quote is that it loses context. Context is wider than a surrounding paragraph, it includes everything in the holy scripture and specifically those things that teach on the same topic that a particular passage addresses. Consider what saint...
