Hi Folks! Long time no see. Any news? How's the forum? Contra

...since I haven't been around? Or is it business as usual?

Hi All, The Lutheran Church of Australia just voted in Synod on the issue or "male and female ordination". While a majority of the voters voted in favor of male and female ordination it wasn't enough to pass into Church law. A theological change was only very narrowly avoided. It seems that...

From Israel Today: "....What do people think about Christians obsessed with a financial crisis that never happens, or red-colored moons that never appear? These sensationalistic pronouncements have become an embarrassment to the good name of our Lord Jesus and are making a mockery of our...

Dear posters, There is a perpetuating rumour around at certain sub-forums that Christians are lawless. The impression being given is that Christians believe that laws of God (all of them) are done away with and that Christians believe that no one is bound to any laws of God given before the...

Sorry to take too much from Hoshiyya's thread, but what could unity between MJs, mainstream Christians and Jews look like? Would it be based on common theology, praxis or some mix of both? I'd also be interested in fielding more exact ideas - such as whether or not the Shema could be a...

Interesting to read, especially in the light of the discussion topics of the forum over the years: Dan Juster: The Dangers of Jewish Roots Movements.

Take the quiz! Who said it? Hamas or ISIS?

Let's say a nice thing and offer a prayer for someone else on the forum. Who's going to kick off?

Just saw this....we should all pray for God's intervention to stop this insanity now. This is dated very recently, and with all that Jihad going on in Iraq and Syria to establish a Caliphate it is clear that violent Islamists are being emboldened to spread bloodshed throughout the Land...

...are you sick of terrorism in the name of Islam yet? I mean, it's an onslaught lately of one bloody crime after another done in the name of your religion. It just keeps coming. Now we have Boko Haram declaring war on Christians and kidnapping schoolgirls to sell them as slaves, not to...

Outta control in Syria. As usual. Typically. ...umm...who's in charge of Muslims? Who keeps them in line according to their religion? Who rules on who gets executed and how?

Hi Folks, Most of us have probably heard about the Kansas City attacks on Jewish centres where a former KKK leader attacked and killed three people at two different Jewish centres. The victims, ironically, were not Jews but Christians. Two Methodist folks and a Roman Catholic (who I believe...

Hi All....just wanting to follow up on a thread from TC-L. The argument was brought up that Luther supported double-predestination in his work "On the Bondage of the Will" but that the Lutheran Confessions reject that notion. I assert that Luther is insisting on not coming down on the...

Seems that some people just want to bring not only Christianity but also Judaism into disrepute. Saw an interview with this Messianic Rabbi recently as well. This is just awful. Here. And here.

Hi Everyone, I've always been interested in hearing about how people come to believe in the religion that they adhere to, so I'm starting this thread in the hopes of hearing about how others have come to faith in their religion, whether it be Islam, of Baha'i or whatever- and to make it fair...

Here you are...for all you history buffs and pagan copy-cat conspiracy theorists. Archeologists have found the "Gate to Hell" in Turkey.

FYI. Probably posted before...but here ya go. Sorry about the typo in the title of the thread. Orthodox Rabbi talks about Jesus & Messianism - YouTube

Hi Folks, A few people asked me to comment why I have changed my icon from Anglican to generic Christian, so I thought I would explain very quickly. I haven't posted here at STR for ages. This is not personal, but more that I have felt that the forum is rather boring. No offence. It's just...
