    AA and Christianity

    Any "good" is from God, who gets the glory for all gifts. The error on the part of the receiver of those good things not to acknowledge Him is where sin lies.

    AA and Christianity

    Lie (what we believe about A.A. teaching): "I am _____ and I am an alcoholic" A.A. teaching: "We are men and women who have recovered from a hopeless state of mind and body" -Bill W., Co-Founder. Even A.A. members can believe a lie. When I was a member, I refused to state the lie, but taught...

    AA and Christianity

    Your conclusion doesn't work. If you are "intimately familiar" with the book, as you say, then anyone with any sense will not allow one's "higher power" to be satan. Darkness cannot bring about good things. The founders knew this, and anyone with even a passing knowledge of how the steps work...

    What is it about yourself that makes you believe that you're saved?

    I've always wondered about the "never really was one of us" thing. Certain passages can be made to fit our church culture so nicely, and I believe that's one example. But back to the OP, for me, it's the centrality of Christ. I'll be the first to admit that I don't spend my day in prayer...

The breed just seems to be erratic as a general rule. In contrast, I had a friend long ago who owned a rather large Rottweiler, and...

    Some thoughts on Authority

    For the Protestant, scripture is only objective and unchangeable as long as it is out of the hands of those that would do with it as they please. The statement sort of makes the point of the speaker. Everyone who claims "thus saith the Lord" is speaking objectively, relying on their own sense...

    Halloween & Horror Movie time!

    "The Shining" will always, always, always be my favorite. I have so much appreciation for the film after I watched the "extra features". It seems that Stanley Kubrick pushed Shelley Duvall so hard during filming that she was physically sick. So, a lot of what comes out in her character is...

    What must I do to be saved?

    Personally, I always enjoy the beginning of a good story: "Now when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brethren, what shall we do?” Peter said to them, “Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the...

    How should I waste time?

    As it turns out, no. Wasting time is wasting time.

    How should I waste time?

    Good idea. There's a game on facebook I like called "Bubbles I.Q." - it's not like some of the cheesier bubble popping games. Takes a little strategy
