Re: Gay Rights

I don't remember anyone saying in the Bible that all people are created to be attracted to the opposite sex. There are numerous places in the Bible where sex with the same sex is forbidden, a gross perversion, and an abomination to the Creator who made man for woman and vice versa. Read Romans chpt...

Re: Benny Hinn

Its a sad thing indeed to see our brothers and sisters flocking around Benny's banner, some filled with hope for a wonder to be performed in their lives while other rally around his flag pole for one reason or another, only to be seriously let down after Benny flew the coupe. I'm certain some were ...

Re: An objective moral standard outside of God.

People spend much of their time trying to avoid consequences for ones actions by justifying whatever action they take. Moral relativism attempts just that. There are objective truths and denying these, because one does not like the consequences, does not nullify breaking objective moral truths. Bre...

Re: An objective moral standard outside of God.

There were thousands of years of non-Christians who had never heard the word of God who got by just fine without eating babies or murdering the innocent. The vast majority of animal species on Earth outside of humans (none of which are capable of having a Godly objective moral standard) do not part...

Re: Benny Hinn

I had a discussion with a brother regarding Benny whom at one time had his head quarters right here in Florida. I never paid Ben much attention due to the fact that Benny like so many pastors who teach the New Miracle name it claim craze that I almost got sucked into but for some reason I was turne...

Re: I'm poor, what can I do with that money?

After reading some posts on here, I have gained a bigger passion for science and how it can prove the Bible. I see you guys tend to mention a lot of reading materials to people, but here's the problem for me. My parents and I do not have the money to get any books because they have to pay bills, fo...

Re: Women in Church?

I agree with others here that say women do have a role in churches. Most churches do have a kitchen, don't they? :wave: :pound: Now, THAT is a sexist statement . Many women in our churches are good at teaching roles beyond the kitchen . You're right, they can teach cooking classes. Yes Dave you are...

Re: Women in Church?

CallMeDave, I don't know your point about the fall. I get that Eve was deceived but it was not her act that condemned humanity. Only Adam's sin "counted" in the long run, so to speak. You are right, Jesus did not discriminate, but every denomination of Christianity and numerous parts of t...

Re: Women in Church?

Monotheistic religions have long had a negative relationship with any sort of feminist ideals, and women have long been considered second-class citizens by Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. It's incredibly complicated, and as noted previously, churches and denominations of Christianity vary greatly...

Re: Women in Church?

Hi everyone, I'm reading a bunch of stuff about various false teachings happening in churches all over. (Inspired by the word faith thread.) It is ridiculously confusing because one webpage might be making good assertions on one topic, but then not so good ones on another. I feel like I can't trust...

Re: born out of wedlock, the bible says I can't go to heaven

Ok....i couldnt find anything in the book 'When Critics Ask' regarding this, but, i did find an explanation confirming what i said above on this topic . You need not worry about not being accepted into Heaven because you were born out of wedlock, but you do if you have decided to reject the only way...

Re: Jesus Christ's resurrection

Why did Jesus only appear to his disciples? After Jesus rose from the dead, he appeared to over 500 local townspeople and his disciples over a long period of 40 days during which time he encouraged people to touch his ressurected physical body, he ate fish on a beach with others, and publicly showe...
