Jack,I'm so sorry to hear of this. Hopefully the children will seek a relationship with Christ for their comfort and direction. That will be my prayer anyway, and for you and your family's comfort as well.God bless,Kathi

This is just something I came across while I had so much time to read other things during the down time
This is from Ignatius' Epistle to the Smyrnaeans…this is the longer version:And I know that He was possessed of a body not only in His being born and crucified, but I also know that He was so after His resurrection, and believe that He is so…[Read more]Lightenup replied to the topic Is God Almighty One?

Mike,I will be very busy for the next several days. My oldest son is getting married on Saturday and my youngest son just had surgery on his shoulder yesterday and I will likely be entertaining out of town relatives next week. I can't take on too much else here. Maybe afterwards.God bless,Kathi

Quote (Raziel @ Oct. 11 2011,09:28)I agree on the dripping blood zombie but people get fooled to believe that is cool. In the end though if you don't have your heart on satan I don't think you have to worry.

Paladin,Quote Or are you saying that the antecedent is not an antecedent?I am saying that 'spirit' is not the antecedent because the spirit is not a weapon but the sword is and so is the 'word of God' as we can see when Jesus was tempted by satan in the desert.

Quote (kerwin @ Oct. 08 2011,01:39)Kathy,I have not yet read all your source material but I have read a large part. In particularly it teaches that though Philo called the Logos by the title God it is an improper appellation and wrongly employed. He also does not regard the Word as a person but it is an idea, a power which is occasionally s…[Read more]

Hello Richard,Welcome back! I enjoyed your stories and your openness. I think you should make a poll as to what the readers thought about whether you should go pursue that girl or not, ha. I think you should, what can it hurt. It seems like God stirred something up between you and you should consider pursuing her. Girls like it when the guy…[Read more]

Kerwin, The Word of God was a person with the Father in the beginning who was loved by the Father and who was begotten by the Father to work alongside Him before the foundation of the world.
