Nick,I never remember denying Jesus as Lord in my life. I know that I haven't always pleased Him but I never felt forsaken by Him or forsook Him. I do not see rebirth from water baptism. Water baptism is an ordinance to follow as obedience to God. I was baptized as a baby and when in college I felt that it was meant to be something that I…[Read more]

Well, my daughter made it through her first “we ain't celebrating on halloween” last night. My husband and I took our stand against halloween and I believe my daughter learned about dying to self yesterday. With my 17 year old son and 12 year old daughter and my husband, we had a family night and enjoyed just being together and playing some fun…[Read more]

Bo,You say that Christ had no actual Father and that proves that the God of the Qua'ran is different than the God of the Bible because the Bible says that Jesus' Father is God Himself. God so loved the world that He gave His Only Begotten Son. It doesn't say that He gave His created son. There lies a big difference.If you want to think about a…[Read more]

Bo,It says that He took on a body prepared for Him. I don't think it was a created act but a supernatural reproduction act. I know that I did not create my kids. Creation of man happened in Genesis with Adam and Eve after that man was reproduced. Mankind was created but the man that Jesus was wasn't of this creation. No man came about like He…[Read more]

Bo, I don't believe that the Son of God was created and I don't believe that he was a created man. I believe that He dwelled within a man's body with the limits of man and that He existed before this point. So, I do not think that the angels were told to bow to Jesus, a created man. I believe they were told to bow to Jesus, the only begotten…[Read more]

Bo, who's the father of that son given to Mary?

Marty,Thanks for sharing…that's a beautiful song and very hopeful too

Keith,Am I harassing you…Thinker says that I should stop harassing you…my goodness. Is answering your questions that you ask of me now considered harassment? Do you feel like I am in anyway harassing you Keith? If so, please show me that. Thank you, Kathi

I have already explained to you Keith about what I think about celebrating on halloween in an alternative way…it promotes the business of halloween and looks like the church is celebrating halloween to unbelievers.My kids can listen to Christian Rock and Roll if it seems like it truly would honor God.

Keith, I'm on the defensive because your posting this verse to me and doing so in red letters. What else was I supposed to think?Quote “ACCEPT HIM WHOSE FAITH IS WEAK, WITHOUT PASSING JUDGMENT ON DISPUTABLE MATTERS”. One man's faith allows him to eat everything, but another man, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables. THE MAN WHO EATS…[Read more]
