    Emergency

    I think one of the biggest problems with modern Christianity, is we don't have the slightest clue as to how Holy and Just God really is. We are brought up being told, you want Jesus to be your friend. What happens? We treat him like a friend, like a buddy, someone you can call upon when times...

    Father's Love Letter

    Believe me, I know it's strange that I am the only one with a problem with this "Letter" Look, I don't want to discourage, or upset anyone. That isn't my intention. Here is the basis of my problem. This is supposed to be a Gospel message. Something that reaches out to the lost souls...

    Father's Love Letter

    Whoo boy, here goes. Am I the only one who sees this as a mis-representation of who God is? I read this in John the other day.....Jesus speaking to the Pharisees John 8: 42Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God...

    Sex before marriage

    I personally think that fornication covers pretty much all the bases when it comes to premarital sexual activity. My wife and I did the same thing before we were married. Everthing you can do, short of actually having sex. We felt guilty all the time. Why? Because God gave us sexual pleasure...

    All Law? Some Law? No Law?

    What is Jesus talking about when he says "If you love me, keep my commandments?" And John says "Hereby we know that we love Him, if we keep His commandments" If there are no commandments to keep, why would the New Testament repeatedly say "Keep my commandments"?

    All Law? Some Law? No Law?

    The way I understood it, and I might be wrong. There are three catagories of Law. The Civil, Ceremonial, and the Moral. The moral, because it is God's standard of goodness, never goes away, and should always be strived for. The moral being the Ten Commandments. Not that keeping them would...

    Time between reps

    Hey I am just curious. I have started a small workout routine and I was just wondering: How much time should I rest between each set? 30 seconds 3 minutes? Is it more beneficial to rest more, or would I be losing possible gains if I rested too long? I don't know much about this sort of stuff...

    How can I live as a Christian in my society...

    Wow that is tough. JFJ is doing great things for the Jewish nation as a whole. A person CAN be a Jewish Christian....look at the Apostle Paul! All the advice I can give is stay strong. Pray pray and pray some more. You have something truely amazing. You have eternal life, given to you by God the...

    are we as men protecting the church

    There is without a doubt a need for Christian men, to return to being Christian men. I think it is a pretty wide generalization however to say that the women are doing all the work while the men are cowering, but there is some truth to that statement. We as men are called to be leaders. We...

    When teenagers say this>>>Oh My Gd? Is t

    It WILL go away. You need to be patient. Not that I mean go ahead and sin, but when you do, let it add to your resolve to stop sinning. You know, we will never be totally free from all sin, but it doesn't mean we can't try. You are going to find, as you grow in Christ, you will find more and...

    When teenagers say this>>>Oh My Gd? Is t

    Definately a good idea to cut it all out. It's like me for example, I have had trouble controling my thoughts from time to time. Something really messed will pop in, but the thing is, you need to be genuinly repentant. Really sorry, and fight not to do it again. For me the thoughts have come a...

    Right on the money! Praise God!

    It's Free

    I agree with you 100% that there is nothing you can do to save yourself. But you missed the most important aspect of salvation. The dreaded "R" word that no one ever seems to want to say. Repentance. Without repentance one can not be saved. God needs us to be sorry for our sins. If you haven't...

    Why do I settle for such lovers that are only temporary?!

    I think you should really examine your life, and examine your heart. Do you display fruits of the Spirit or Flesh? If you are really into pornography, and feel distant from God, there may be a chance that you are not saved. Please don't get angry with me, I say this for your own benefit. Look at...

    When teenagers say this>>>Oh My Gd? Is t

    This is something I feel really strongly about. I believe it is wrong to say "Oh my --d. I can't even type it, I feel so guilty. I think it all comes down to how much we revere the name of God. Is God just an exclaimation to us? Or is He the all-knowing, all-consuming, amazing, gracious...

    Why men hate church

    I have to respectfully disagree. The most important thing for a Church, is Godly leadership. A preacher, who preaches for God and not man. Someone who isn't worried about stepping on the toes of congregational members, if need be. I wouldn't care if the Church was 90% women. I still don't think...

    Why men hate church

    This may seem a bit cold, but I think it needs to be said. Keep in mind this is just my opinion. Personally, I think that if a man doesn't want to come to church, because the decor is too feminine, and the songs are too feminine, and it isn't manly enough......stay at home. The Modern Christian...

    Favorite Sports / Team .

    Is there a reason Hockey isn't that popular in the states? I mean it's fast, it's exciting, there are huge hits, amazing talant......I just don't know why pee wee baseball has more fans than hockey.

    Shocking Message

    For me the shocking thing was that preachers still preach this way. There are so many preachers who preach a seeker friendly, ear tickling message, it's refreshing to hear Biblical truth for a change.

    Friend Fell into Sin

    I have a friend, a Christian, who fell into sexual sin. She came from a home that didn't find time to show any sort of love, and even after she became a Christian, she had a void from not feeling loved. She became friends with a girl from town, not a Christian, and they became close. The...
