I ran across this one, and I thought it would have a lot of wisdom on this topic. Mark 9:38-42 38 Now John answered Him, saying, "Teacher, we saw someone who does not follow us casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow us." 39 But Jesus said, "Do not forbid...

Hey, come on. 1 Corinthians 13, the one you quote, let's see it further. Why be so impatient? After all, this is a Christian forum, and we all believe in the same Lord, so please let's be respectful and not accusive. 1 Corinthians 13 1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but...

Yes, I apologize, of course, God can bless financially. But love of money is different than to simply gain wealth because of God's blessing. There are greedy desires behind the prosperity gospel. We are told not to love the things of this world, because our treasure is in heaven. That is why I...

Hello! I am just wondering, how can OCD give prayers? My dear, you are a person that God loves, and He knows everything. OCD is nothing compared to the love God has for you. If you prayed for something you think is messed up and you don't want it, God knows all of this. And why would He answer...

Hello! You don't believe there are prophesies anymore? That's fine. But how do you think the Holy Spirit works in the church in our day and age? If we don't have gifts, which God gave us so we could serve Him the best, how exactly are some chosen to be leaders and others ministers? And sure...

Hello. I'm sorry but that's a ridiculous claim. To preach prosperity gospel and gain wealth? What world do we live in...? The Bible tells us that the love of money is root of all evil. But of course some are very self-centered and like to do these things and gain money and buy their mansions...

You would like to be released from..? Oh my goodness, you will be released from them! God's Spirit, which dwells amongst us believers, works in our hearts. And just keep repenting (don't give up), also don't give room to the enemy by falling over to vain things. Remember that God is powerful...

Hi. The symptoms do sound like anxiety or maybe anxiety disorder. I don't indeed believe in coincidence, because God knows everything and He is Alpha and Omega. But still before these things happening you don't know what will happen, so I don't see how could it be useful to have this kind of...

Hello!! If you need mental help, don't be afraid to seek therapy or counsel. Speaking with a professional is really helpful. Have you told your caretakers and/or your close friends about your state of mind? I know it is sometimes hard for them to understand or have the capacity to handle the...

"The Universe" doesn't give us anything. As christians, believing this kind of belief is just weird. Because God is the one who has everything in His hands, the whole universe. He created the whole universe and us, so He is the one charge of our lives after all. But we are the ones making...

Hello! I totally understand your concern. We as christians are excited to share something that we feel so blessed about. And I am sure, a lot of people who aren't christians are very interested to hear us. Of course, because we are not forcing anyone to listen! For example for a few times...

I believe it is very possible, because God speaks to us in different ways. During dreaming we are most available, not by our phones, doing work or studying or being distracted.... Personally I feel that God has spoken to me due to few dreams in my lifetime. Maybe you feel this way too? If you...

This feels like a deeper issue than using an iPhone. Make sure to pray and seek whether the ways of your heart are pure, as I'm sure you already do . If you have a conviction about not using phone, and you can live without it, you should do it. But nowadays living without phone is impossible...

How else can we understand another person, unless we are close to them 'as a friend'? Wasn't Jesus said to be the friend of sinners, even though He did not sin? We are all sinners, therefore we are not better than anyone we see on the street. We have messed up and fallen short, just as badly or...

Well, wanting what SOMEONE ELSE has, but it is his/her, not yours. We want many things, like marriage, children, home to live in, we want to go to meet Jesus... These are not covetousness.
