Why is there even a “lake of fire” – I believe that when sin was first found in satan it was only apparent to God. The trouble was, that God knew that the sin in satan would grow and ruin all of heaven itself. So He created the lake of fire to destroy the irredeemable (which I believe that those exposed to Gods glory and still allow sin a pla…[Read more]

Truth… If I state; “everything I say is a lie” am I telling the truth?Sometimes truth is complicated but that does not mean that it is not absolute. In other words there are not different versions of truth just different levels of understanding in different areas, of one all-encompassing truth. Christianity is a classic example, all claim to have…[Read more]

princess,I will not discuss endlessly on any topic as I believe: Warn them before God against quarreling about words; it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen. I have discussed with Stu before and his chief ploy is to get you off topic. So I had reached the point where I stop discussing as it was going nowhere and his request seemed…[Read more]

Quote (Song @ Dec. 31 2010,20:22)Acts 2And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. And awed came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. And all who believed were together and had all things in common. And they were selling their p…[Read more]

There have been resolutions, but it has been awhile as they are rare. If I have offended you by posting to your posts I apologize, I like to build on ideas instead of always tearing down.Wm

Quote (shimmer @ Dec. 31 2010,18:27)I would also like to know those questions. If I went to church, what do I do ? There are quiet churches, and there are loud churches. So, am I wrong for not going to church and joining in ? Am I wrong for seperating myself ? Would I learn more and gain more by going to church ? Not quite the subject I realise,…[Read more]

Astaria,give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.I used to believe that I could never be grateful for some of the things you have to go through, but as I matured I found I could be thankful for what the trials added to my character. Good times bring a respite, trials bring growth.My opinion – Wm

Quote (shimmer @ Dec. 29 2010,04:25)Mike, Irene and Terrarica,I find it odd that people here debate for so long, on and on and on, and why ? What purpose is there to it ? Is it to drive people mad ? Do you ever fear that maybe you could shatter someones belief through debating ? This is all meaningless, what you do here. Especially when people get…[Read more]

We went to a candle light procession which was put on by a secular company, they did a very good job of accurately telling of the birth of God's Son to an audience of thousands. Philippians 1:18 But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice.…[Read more]
