In a toss-up between a fallible book, and my God-given concience, I have to choose the latter. Do you believe the scripture where it says that "the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked, who can know it?" Jeremiah 17:9 How can one trust their concience and heart to lead the
I know you will disagree with this preacherman, but I felt compelled to express my beliefs. When people relinquish the guidance of their souls to books and the men that interpret them, they have turned away from God in favor or of the fallible You are correct bakerstreet, I do disagree with you but I ca
Another religion would fill the void A religion with no value, do you think? preacherman
Psalm 12:6-7 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. The Word of God; how sweet it's words and how true. It has existed from generation to generation. Many have attempted to thwart it's truth
Welcome to jU gene. It is always good to get new users. God Bless preacherman
this is my new icon say hi to maya Do you have him/her copyrighted or can I cut & paste and flash him/her on one of your blogs? preacherman
Gentlemen, if your objective is to 'turn me back to Jesus' (as it appears to be) the threat of Hell is not going to do it. emporor, Christ purpose was not judgement, but salvation... I am come a light unto the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness, and if any man
but I just hold to the firm stand that Jesus was the friend of sinners. I concur my friend, that is why He came. They that be whole need no physician. I have never talked to anyone that I did not truly love in Christ, even if it is not perceived that way. Oft times it is very hard to change peoples per
I receive a monthly newsletter from a Christian Ministry called the Cast Net. Below is a blurb from the letter: A young sailor was proposing to a young lady. “Darling, if you marry me I promise nothing but sunshine. All dark clouds and storms will leave!” The young lady replied, “Just get the ring and the preacher. Forget about the weather
I'm shocked, confused, befuzzled. I actually agreed with everything you said... Okay, this is a dirty trick. Is this really Baker? You realize many would think we are un-Christian for believing such. Peace my friend p
If God is in our heart Herein lies the paramount question, who's heart? Who's heart (mind) does God dwell in helix II? Better yet who's heart are you refering to? I know
I gather emporor and little_whip that both of you are somewhat offended that I use the Word of God without apologies. Deut. 8:3 Deut. 6:13 Deut.6:16 Sound familiar? preacherman
You know how it is Baker, there are many times that we read things in God's word, and by all admissions don't understand why God did things the way he did. An issue I had a problem with was God not allowing Moses to enter the promise land after all that he had put up with. Do you know what I mean? One might would say who are you to question why and what God does. I have found it ok to say it and discuss it, because if we think anything in our heart, He
Thanks for you comments helix II. As for this omnipotence called God, truely it does not care who we, where we, or how we copulate. Quite the contrary..."marriage is honourable in all things and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers, God will judge." Peace my friend
little_whip / empororoficecream- same spirit And they quickly abandon anything deeper than tossing Bible Quotes around, as witnessed here and while preacherman made a few
Again, thank you Preacherman for this opportunity. Whosoever therfore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of His Father with the holy angels Thank you Ted for responding. <B
The husband and wife team, used to love going to Christian prayer meetings and when the time came to lay hands on people they would go up and pray for people, laying hands on them. One particular session, the assistant stood fast in the isle and would not move, when the witch asked what was wrong, her assistant said, "Can't you s
the same one you have met, loved and left. Surely your heart must ache? In His letter to the 7 churches (Ephesus), Christ said they had left their first love, remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly and will remove thy can
I'm in the process of finding a new church. I pray God leads me to the right one. Keep me in your prayers. I'll remember you in mine. May God bless you and yours. Remember to keep God first in your life. I do pray God's Blessing in leading you where He would have you serve. preacherman
Nature is full of look-alikes. In the scientific world it is called mimicry. When it comes to snakes, it can mean the difference between life and death. The Coral snake has a twin that only can be detected by the avid herpetologist. For years, biologists believed the resemblance between the coral snake, and its harmless near-twins, the scarlet snake and scarlet k
A couple of weeks ago, aeryck shared with jU his conversion to Christ. I really enjoyed reading it. Okay now is the opportunity for you to speak for Him. It's okay, I will not feel intruded upon. I want to hear. Hey, put your faith in Words. It’s scriptural! 1 Peter 3:15 Sanctify the Lord God in your heart and be ready always to give an ans
1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou
Whoa… looks like this thread has been pretty busy today. This is the way I like to see it. Like aeryck, I read both Baker’s second post and aerycks first response early this morning before going to work. I came very close to responding but felt the time to reflect during the day would better serve everyone involved. I feel it necessary to share with aeryck, and others who did not have the opportunity to read angelamarie88 post concern
In the 6th chapter of Mark’s gospel, Herod had imprisoned John the Baptist because John had told Herod “it is not lawful for thee to have thy brothers wife”. Eventually John’s life was consecrated to God in his beheading. My concern is that there are many that dabble on the religion page of jU who would have thought John got what he deserved, for telling Hero
The likes of this thread is liken unto the day Christ entered Jerusalem for the last time. The multitudes of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with loud voice, saying Jesus, Jesus Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord. And some of the pharisees from among the multitude said unto him Master, rebuke thy disciples for their intrusive speech. And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that if these should hold
