    Being triggered is up to you

    A discussion of this from both Christian and secular standpoints could be productive and lead to deeper understandings of ourselves, the teachings of Jesus, and the way they are influenced by the secular world in which we live and its effect on us and our understanding of Jesus' teachings and...

    Would you plan a non-Christian funeral?

    Unless it was a request for a different religious practice to be carried out I would honor their request. And if it was for a different religious practice than Christian I would turn it over to a member of that religion to perform. Just a personal thing, but I never go against a dying wish...

    Being triggered is up to you

    If it isn't instinctual behavior it is consciously controllable behavior, something called Free Will.

    Losing weight as you age

    The problem is usually that both activity levels and metabolism decline faster than eating which leaves you effectively eating more than you think you are in relation to the amount you actually need. The usual thing that happens next is that you either try dieting or just accept getting fat...

    Did Christ die for them that are perishing ?

    Apologies for butting in here, but I'm curious about whom you see as being the people Christ died for. (I ask not to be critical of anyone, but because I've heard very many different things said by different people about this and I want to view your answer in context with how you see it to that...

    Is manifesting magic or praying to false gods?

    It's actually neither, at least the basics of it, it's invoking the power of God that has been given us without it being directed by and under the authority and rules of God. Basically using the principles of Christianity (as well as Judaism) with Christ as its authority removed. This started...

    How are we supposed to witness?

    I think the key to that answer might be in "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you". Just let the Holy Spirit direct you without thinking what you have to be saying and doing, and assume that what you do is what you are being guided to do. We, Christians, are all...

    Applying Ephesians 5:1 to everyday life...

    Jesus was God incarnate on earth, here to bring not only salvation but to show us how we are meant to behave, imitate him and you imitate God. FWIW, by what authority do you judge God?

    USA What's your confidence level in this administration?

    My confidence is in God above men, may he guide and direct this current administration to work good for all who work to serve his purpose.

    What are your views on vaccines?

    I'm a pureblood myself, haven't had a vaccine in quite a bit longer than you've been alive. But I don't advocate that for anyone else, I don't have anything against vaccines, just prefer not to use them myself. But I do question the bombardment of very young children with so many at once...

    Do some Christians replace one sin with another?

    Most commonly, I think yes. We still have our sinful nature ant that will lead us to find a new sin to fill the vacuum left by the old one and lead us back the the sinful state we found ourselves comfortable in before. Think of it as someone that gives up, say, smoking and then becomes obese...

    Name 5 Essential Camping Items

    Good and well broken in boots (nothing like getting 15 miles from trailhead and finding out you've worn blisters on your feet). Climbing/Rappelling gear (you're not going to find a good campsite without this) Fire starting kit. (If you can make a fire you can survive) Large and small knife...

    Wal mart

    Most of my shopping at Walmart is for groceries and such things as I use in daily life (i.e. auto stuff, paint glue, all that sort of stuff). It's all available in one place at good prices and I find it to be a Christian friendly store as well (Christmas stuff, Easter stuff, Christian oriented...

    One sign of Original Sin

    Yes, that's one of the deceits we need to be especially aware of.

    No Disease God Can’t Heal

    Curious, why did you bring up the issue of trusting God in the first place?

    No Disease God Can’t Heal

    For the revelation of those "existence, plans, decisions etc." you seem to lament being kept secret from you, sometimes referred to as the mysteries of the Kingdom of God.

    No Disease God Can’t Heal

    Ask yourself this: Is it more important that you can trust God or that God can trust you? You may find your answer there.

    A deeply troubling and awful thing.

    Two things you might add to your meditations on this, the First Commandment warns us to put no other gods ('ĕlôhı̂ym) before God and in the new Testament when Jesus was asked about the last days first warned us about being deceived by men claiming to represent him and be god.(Matthew 24...

    A deeply troubling and awful thing.

    Here's a question, one I ponder myself often, when we don't understand the meaning and reason of something God has set forth for us in scripture, does the fault lie within the scripture as given or within ourselves and our understanding of it? FWIW, God does not us to be 'robots' since he gave...

    A deeply troubling and awful thing.

    To but in and add my own two cents worth, I would say God expects our total and unwavering devotion to him, putting nothing before him and all of the things of the world and worldly thinking in a distant second place behind him. IMO, this is why the First Commandment is the first one given...
