    Titan submersible search

    You shouldn't. Of course, there would have to be some limits or else the government would be expected to pay the cost of every mishap and act of nature that anyone experiences. But when the undertaking is experimental or in the daredevil category, and it has not been insured by the promoters...

    Is there anything that would cause you to leave Christianity?

    That's true, but there we are speaking only of a heritage and a popular perception that people have about Europeans. That's not to address the question of adherence to the Faith that is Christianity. And yet, it's the latter association that we started off talking about on this thread.

    Is there anything that would cause you to leave Christianity?

    Well, if that were indeed a sufficient definition, everything that we find said about the institutional Church in the New Testament wouldn't mean much. At the least, all of that would be optional. So, that in turn would mean Christ commissioning the first bishops, the Apostles, instructing...

    The creation theory

    There are a number of different ideas that are referred to by the term "evolution." Some of them are, arguably, compatible with the Bible, too. IMHO, we first would need to be in agreement concerning the boundaries of any discussion like this one if we wanted to get anywhere with it.

    Is there anything that would cause you to leave Christianity?

    It's not possible to leave Christianity and still be faithful to the Scriptures. What remains, in that situation, is an admiration for Jesus, or even a belief in him as God and Savior, but without a commitment to the Faith, since that is dependent upon being a functioning member of the Church...

    65 mph

    For sure, if you're planning on driving more than a few miles, it's a lot more relaxing to do it just as you described while the speeders flash by, weaving in and out, and having then to calculate how best to get ahead of every other car and truck ahead. Then, for their trouble, they'll arrive...

    Who is "him that justifieth the ungodly"?

    If it would help you, I could put God's word into even bigger red letters. ☺️ 1) Through the death of his son. 2) We have NOW received the reconciliation. .

    Guy accepts Jesus at a pride

    All of that is correct, but what I saw seemed to amount to that person claiming already to be a believer who knew that he needed God, etc.--but minus the commitment to change his ways. That's despite the evangelist seeming to try several times to get that person to acknowledge this factor in...

    Guy accepts Jesus at a pride

    Me either. So what we know is that God is good, and the evangelist pictured probably meant well, but we really couldn't bill the video as anything showing "Woman accepts Jesus." It is, but that wasn't the claim being made for the video we saw.

    Guy accepts Jesus at a pride

    At any point during that conversation, did you notice a decision to repent actually being made? .

    Who is "him that justifieth the ungodly"?

    In order to understand Romans 5:10-11, we need to set aside the altered version of Romans as presented here by brightfame and consider instead the plain words of Holy Scripture as recorded in just about any version of the Bible you can pick up in the bookstore.. Doing so, we find Romans 5:10...

    Is being married in a church important to you?

    If I wasn't clear, that is how many people think of the church, any church, when it comes time for them to get married. But as for the church itself agreeing to marry non-Christians, and under what circumstances, that varies with the denomination and congregation. In this permissive age we're...

    Is being married in a church important to you?

    For me, the answer is "yes." So far as many other folks are concerned, it's also "yes," but for other reasons. It seems common for the prospective bride and groom these days not to be members or even occasional visitors at the church they've picked out. Yet when it came to their decision to get...

    Nursing homes

    Although there are many needs that family members can handle, there are also some that are beyond their ability, so because the caregiving is an "all or nothing" challenge, the nursing home is often necessary.

    How would God respond to Stephen Fry?

    You got the instructions, didn't you? The "Do's and Don'ts?" You are referring to them just as the rest of us are. Oh, I don't know about that. We do, in fact, admonish toddlers when they disobey Mom. Of course, we normally take account of the ability of the toddler to comply, but with...

    Faith

    In other words, Faith is NOT (as you've contended) simply a consequence or sidelight of having been previously justified. That is to say that we allegedly have no part in it, nor does Faith accomplish anything, because it's already been sealed and settled. And here again, as with the above...

    Someone in your denomination who believes differently?

    Generally speaking, nothing. There are people in every church who don't understand the church's teachings or else think it's fine to impose their own thinking on a few doctrines. Generally speaking also, they usually aren't open to changing their minds about it and may point to doctrines that...

    How would God respond to Stephen Fry?

    We know. It doesn't matter if that's how you feel about it.. Well, part of your problem may be that you are thinking of everything in terms of disobedience to God or, if not that, as God and creation being something other than you would have done yourself if you were making the rules. In...

    The ugliest car model

    I've seen some ugly cars, but it would be hard to beat that one for ugliest! I had been thinking of the Isetta, but this one beats it.
