    Is This Like You

    I'm reminded of Proverbs by your post, so I'll post what Soloman says about rebuking and such... Proverbs 9 6. Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding. 7. He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth...

    Is This Like You

    I say they called it like they saw it, and they let the Spirit convict those in question. Jesus on the other hand, was the sinless son of God, and his anger was just, but what man has no sin, and is able to stand to rebuke another as Christ did? Being truthful is just, but I think we must...

    Meet "Snowdrift"

    She's a Cremello, but if I breed her with a bay, or chesnut I have a 100% chance of getting a palimino. I'll be looking for a good stud over the next year, or so. I plan on giving her foul to my brother after it's weaned. He's moving to Kentucky in the next year or two, so it should work out...

    Freewill vs Predestination

    God chose man, and allows for man to embrace him if we so choose. Christ is our truth, our redemtion, our light, and none come to the father but by him. Christ gives us the heart to serve God, and gives us the Spirit to accomplish ourselves in him. His Blood was the "seat of Life", and...

    Christianity used as a tool of oppression?

    He did say that, but Matthew records Jesus saying this soon after... It's hard for me to believe Jesus would have us take up arms and slay our enemies...especially after this statement. The two quotes seem a bit contradictory to me, and the first seems to go against his very...

    Christianity used as a tool of oppression?

    and I have the utmost respect for Muslims, but you're focusing now on Christian 'radicals'...most every religion has them. Christian 'Malitia'? Cmon...nowhere in the NT does Christ even suggest we take up arms and destroy our enemies. I'm offended at such groups, as they give this peacful...

    Christianity used as a tool of oppression?

    I see it as peaceful, which means it IS for me, as well as for most Christians. You disagree because you see its history, and abuse of power, which is, btw, present in other religions also. Namely Islam, but I won't judge an entire religion because a few radicals abuse its teachings. When is the...

    Christianity used as a tool of oppression?

    I agree that Christianity has a dark history, but Christianity is not a violent religion in and of itself. I think politics played a big role in its history, and still does to a degree today. Still, The true Christian message, is about Love, forgiveness, and peace. It is man who defiles its...

    What's your favorite book in the Bible?

    What's your favorite book in the Bible, and why? If you're able, narrow it down to a single chapter. What Book and chapter speaks to you the most? It's hard for me to decide, but John chapter 15 is certainly one of them...I think it's one of the most beautiful chapters in the Bible. (Can't...

    Question

    Thank you, FS. :) I understand what, and why you believe what you do, and I appreciate your commitment in explaining, but I have not come to that point...Yet. When God puts it in me to believe Jesus was God, it will be then, and only then that I will accept it. I cannot believe what I cannot...
