    Hell

    Interesting quote... "Some people are so heavenly minded they are no earthly good." Nothing I can do in this life would earn all my mind can imagine heaven could be. But faith in heaven also allows faith in grace and forgiveness of my shortcomings. The flip side of that is in my belief I can...

    Hell

    Solomon said "The dead know nothing" Revelation said the sea gave up the "dead" and I saw the "dead" both small and great. So I take it the dead do not know they are being judged. Revelation then goes on to say that death and hell are cast into a lake of fire. At that point hell as a...

    Music to my ears... or rather my heart!

    I am thinking any music of any genre. It just seems the messages that reach me best now are set to music of some type. I seem to "get" more from music than I do a speech of the same length on the same subject.

    Hey everyone been quite some time since I visited this forum. Glad to see its still here and active as a place to discuss our beliefs. I have been on a roller coaster ride through the last couple of years with faith as the car I have been riding in. Sometimes I have held on securely to the...

    Where is Christanity Headed?

    And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD Isaiah 66:23 Bible is a fun book. It keeps telling you the ending from the beginning and yet we all wonder after reading it ... " Let the...

    Nice to be a member...

    Welcome, You know this forum isnt Church pretty. Just like nature though I feel closer to God here when responding to a fellow believer. Abram heard God talked with Him all the time.. and not the thunder lightning flashing ... but chatted and laughed. The Bible calls him a friend of God...

    Can we bargain with God ?

    wow this thread goes all over :))) "We owe an incredible debt to God" ..... for a Christian isnt that what Jesus paid on the cross. but I really feel your need ... I dont live up to a standard I set for myself how can I measure to God... I think its best to hold dearly onto the Verse 1...

    Is it Sinful to Criticize or Doubt Christianity?

    Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. People spend their whole adult lives running from this verse. I would assume who ever it was that raised you as a Chirstian believed this and it would be their faith in it that makes it true in your life...

    worship or serve the Christ?

    Speaking of worship and service we should bring in devotion. I would hope that my fellow believers on this thread would be devoted to their faith. And any truth thats brought to light in this board is nurtured like a seed with God as the gardener in His time. There is a gusto and a fire to...

    Christian Eschatology Challenge

    This being a very open subject here goes. As in the days of Noah. It will be very hard to see good in people as a whole. The middle east will be involved (Babylon in every place in scripture has been in its same specific geograhpic location) Christ will come the dead in Christ will rise...

    worship or serve the Christ?

    Mee, Your church is wonderful they have like Martin Luther worked to remove paganism and correct the path of Christianity from years of faulty doctrinal choices. (Said with repspect of all believers in Christ) Your church was one of many founded at that same time period. It was as if God had...

    worship or serve the Christ?

    My problem mee is this, I believe you have a doctrine that can be backed by scripture, I believe also JW have an open doctrinal belief system that if scholars sometimes discern a new truth hidden in the scripture it can (and has been added) to your churches overall doctrinal beliefs. Thats...
