    Assurance of Salvation

    I really agree with most of what you said, and I don't want to be a kill joy or annoying in any way, I just think it is more complex than that. Here is an analogy that I would like to throw out there. Down in south Florida, a boy and his father go on a fishing trip near a hydroelectric dam...

    Alcohol

    To my understanding, the Bible approves of wine. It doesn't approve of other kinds of alcohol. Wine is actually good for you, it's good for your health. Beer, whiskey, brandy, all the other kinds of alcohol are designed to get you drunk. That is what they advertise. That is what they want. In my...

    Divorce and Remarriage?

    Here is an interesting thought that might just throw a monkey wrench into everything. I honestly just thought about this. Never thought it before. This quote from Jesus seems to teach that if we don't forgive others there trespasses, he cannot forgive us. Matthew 6: 14 For if ye forgive...

    Is anyone else having trouble converting people?

    I do agree with the Walk the Walk idea. But what happens if, while you are walking your walk, trying to be a godly example, they die in there sins and go to hell? And what about all the people around you that don't really know you? How are they going to know if you don't tell them? I agree that...

    Speaking to Devils can never be good. These people should be prayed for and you may want to let your friends know exactly what it is what you are dealing with. They don't want to give demons a window into their bodies. People seem to forget that demon possetion is still very real. I think it...

    would you die for christianity ?

    I think if a person wouldn't then you have answered the question of, "Are you really a Christian?" or not. No one who follows Christ wouldn't die for Him. It would be scary, yes, but in the end oh so worth it.

    sex before marrage

    It means if they love eachother, and they are going to stay together anyway, you might as well get married. There is no sense in dating forever and burn with passion. It isn't saying get married if your attracted to someone

    Profanity

    I really think the word should be changed from Addicting to a Habit. I know I used to do the same thing, I swore out of habit. But I soon realized that I usually did it when I was around certain people.

    Profanity

    One thing you could try is surround yourself with people that would be offended by swearing. Hang around Christians who wouldn't really appreciate that kind of speaking, and you should be cured quickly. Also meditate on the verse by "Every idle word a man shall speak, he will give account therof...

    sex before marrage

    Definately not! Basically you hit the nail on the head when you said that when the Bible referers to man it means mankind. Everyone. So when he says you shouldn't look with lust, it is for all people.

    sex before marrage

    I hate the way the world has soo perverted something amazing that God has given. I like this analogy about sex before marraige: it's kind of a parable. There was a man who loved his son. To show him his love the man descided he would give his son a special gift. He and his son went to the...

    Questions / Objections To Christianity

    Almost every time there is a so called, contradiction, it is simply being read out of contect. Other times they are simply misunderstood alltogether. But what can you expect if you read God's word without the help of the Holy Spirit?

    other religons

    At the end of the day though, they are going to hell. Jesus made it very clear, what one must do to get to heaven. If you are following another religion, you will end up in hell, plain and simple. So while people think we are being narrow minded, not wanting people to follow other religions, we...

    Remarried on the rebound 2 days after my divorce - HELP

    I have not studied this greatly so don't take me as an authority on the subject. In my studies however I have only found two times when divorce is condoned, infidelity, and if an unbelieving spouse leaves. Neither time however, did I read that the person could remarry. That being said, I can't...

    Funny isn't it?

    I have heard that before, but it is definately a good reminder. Like you said, it's really not that funny, it's sad. We have to get out and do our part.

    At some point or another though, you are going to have to show them that they are wrong and you are right. Many people will misconstrue this as being rude, but we are doing it in Christ like love because we would hate to see these people end up in hell because of a false belief. Just because...

    Use God's 10 Commandments when evangelizing. God's law is like a mirror, and it showes us how bad we really are when compared to God's holiness. When a sinner sees he is condemned, then he will understand his need of a savior. Check out wayofthemaster.com and tell me what you think.

    Do You think you're doing enough??

    Dreamer, I in no way wanted to imply that you were becoming complacent. I think, though if you look around the contemporary church in america and canada, you will find a lot of people who are happy giving the bare minimum for God, saying in there hearts, "yeah I do enough for God." And I believe...
