    Could you turn in your child?

    This thought came to me when I read about Gabby Petito's murder and her fiance being the suspect...well, he's still labeled a person of interest right now, so I guess I have to state that. Anyway, if you knew your child committed a horrific crime, could you turn him/her in to the authorities?

    If you could have any animal in the world as a pet...

    Well, as much as I'd love to say a big wild one like a Tiger or something, I wouldn't want to feed it or clean up after it. So I'm going to say either a fox or a groundhog since we have those in the back field and they're so fun to watch!

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Mandating vaccines without allowing exceptions (such as those who had allergic reactions like me) is ridiculous. There was a judge who wouldn't allow a mother to have visitation with her son if she wouldn't get vaccinated even though she told him she had had reactions to vaccines in the past and...

    Not by works?

    Again, "be baptized" means something happens to you. In the book of James, the speech is toward those who already have faith for salvation and now James is showing that after we receive faith we do works. The works are not for God but because our neighbors need our good works.

    Baptism is God's work in us. It's not something I can do to myself. The language is passive "be baptized" meaning something is happening to us.

    Happy Birthday Lucian Hododoc

    We can't believe without having faith first given to us by God....and Baptism is God's work. So yeah, still faith alone.

    Since God has not told us otherwise, that's what we go by. Right?

    Not by works?

    Scriptures have told us that salvation is "by grace through faith". Apart from that we can only trust that God's judgment is Holy and good.

    Not by works?

    You can't "believe" in the Savior without having faith given to you by God first. You might know there was a guy named Jesus who existed, but that's not believing in Him as your Savior. Works by unbelievers are not acceptable to God.

    Where is the word “rapture” found in the Bible?

    The Left Behind books use the term Rapture in a far different way than what is biblical as @RichWh1 pointed out with 1 Thessalonian 4:17. Here is a great article explaining: https://steadfastlutherans.org/2014/11/the-true-rapture-sermon-on-1-thessalonians-413-18-by-pr-charles-henrickson/
