    A troubling confession - Extra ecclesiam nulla salus!

    I don't ever see Jesus shown saying things that exclude any who would just come to him, that has to be the basis for faith to come to salvation, with repentance from life with sin to be restored to God through Jesus Christ.

    Consider that humans were told what they should do, they were made to be in the image of God. That does not mean, despite what so many claim and so many believe, that human people are all in the image of God. They should be doing what is shown for them in Genesis 1 for that. With our failure, we...

    He Gets Us campaign

    All the promotions using Jesus being portrayed in media are contrary to approaches Jesus used. Compassion still was shown to any he encountered. It is example for us.

    Is the church infallible in Protestant theology?

    There can be church. But church is not the religion. Christian church should conform to Christian religion, meaning faith and practices. Some of them might really be doing so. My faith seeks God's will, which shows in the scriptures, and ways we know we are divinely led.

    He Gets Us campaign

    I missed seeing it, but I sure do see that Jesus came experiencing humanity, and was showing compassion to all, the marginalized included, and such that I can't see Jesus lacking compassion to any, though there is such lack generally.

    Is the church infallible in Protestant theology?

    There is no church that is my religion. My Christian faith is shared by others, and among each other we are church. The faith is in Christ with repentance to be restored, from rebellion which is our life of sin, to God. The scriptures being the word of God can be trusted, no one on earth has...

    what are the best source of protein for Vegetarians?

    All the protein we need can come from food we have from plants. You might get more protein but it isn't needed. Protein is overrated and little information is put out about real problems coming from having too much protein, which is really possible. Just those certain vitamins are something to...

    Ye Olde Ice Cream Parlour

    Think how dependent we are on the compassionate grace and mercy from our Creator, the same Creator of the other creatures, they groan from the conditions there are for deliverance with hope, that their Creator will fulfill, Romans 8:19-22, and God says there should be compassion shown to animals...

    Can't see Jesus working at a dairy animal industry? I can't see him doing that, or sanctioning it either.
