Dear Quahom1, Good point, but faith comes by hearing...the message must be announced.

Dear Quahom1, Yep, and I speaking for myself often need to insert foot in mouth before my brain engages. To wait to process how and what I want to really say...:o

Dear Luna, Your just fine,...I never felt any heat. We all perceive conversation in different ways right?:)

In Acts Chapter 4, we see Peter and John arrested for preaching Jesus. They were told by the Priests, Sadducess and the Captain of the temple to not speak at all or teach in the name of Jesus. They were pressured to be silent, yet they prayed... "Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to...

Dear wil, Boy, I have a Mormon friend who likes to run with that one...:rolleyes:

Re: The Trinity of Christianity Dear Saltmeister, That's right, thank God for the 1st Amendment.:) This way people can share thier opinions when asked, and not get ruffled when others have opposing views, huh?

Dear Paladin, "Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great on earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart." Genesis 6:5-6

Dear Paladin, I suppose again that depends on our definition of "Evil"? It also requires understanding of a "Fallen Nature". I see Humanity as people who "want to do right" yet struggle because of "lust-greed-selfishness" end up generally doing wrong. Self attempts to "silence" these inner...

Re: The Trinity of Christianity Dear Saltmeister, I think it is to be conformed into His image by (Sanctification) through the Holy Spirit. What do you think?

Re: The Trinity of Christianity Dear Saltmeister, Great points you made. I think these verses best sums up what I want to say. "He who is joined to the Lord is one Spirit with Him." 1 Corinthians 6:17 "Now, the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is there is Liberty." 2...

Dear RubySera_Martin, Fair enough. To continue on this topic would be another thread...

Dear Ruby, It was "specifically" concerning "identified professing" homosexuals in positions of authority within the church. >pastors, elders, deacons... for example. :)

Dear RubySera, I think you completely missed my point regarding homosexuals. Please read my post again. :)

Dear All, As I contemplate the overall direction that the church is traveling, I see the word "grace" and actions of grace being mis-used. There are very clear quidelines in the scriptures regarding men & woman in the church and homosexuality. In my opinion, for a congregation to even...

Dear lunamoth, Thanks...it is a tough question sometimes... ;)

Dear lunamoth, Great. Let's assume that flow has answered the thread question. thank you Flow.

Dear Prober, I don't understand the question? Could you go a little further please?

I have been on several Christian Forums and have found the people interacting in the "Christianity" Forum in particular to be "Most" Christ-Like and pleasant to fellowship with.:)

Dear Paladin, Amen to that! "...that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, if, by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead." Philippians 3:10-11
