    How can I stop myself being addicted to conspiracies ?

    How does flat earth bring you closer to the Lord? In what way does it help you to become more like Christ? So... there are passages with scripture that you rely upon to support the concept of a flat earth? What are they? Back when I was very new in my Christian life I read a book by Watchman...

    How can I stop myself being addicted to conspiracies ?

    It's good that you have grown up believing in God. It is a challenge for parents to be able to train up their children so that when they are mature they will choose God's ways over the ways of the ungodly. If one or both of your parents are Christians then, as a child, you were covered by your...

    How can I stop myself being addicted to conspiracies ?

    So... back to basics... it seems like you have been raised in a Church, or at least, religious environment... especially if you have tried to comprehend Revelation at such a young age. I was a teen before I read it and now, 50 years later, I've still not got that book worked out. The first...

    How can I stop myself being addicted to conspiracies ?

    Conspiracies can be fascinating and, sometimes, even believable but, in the end, they really have nothing in them for a Christian to worry about because God has everything under His control. Satan has been trying to subvert God's creation from the time he deceived Adam and Eve and he is not...

    Is Shame a virtue?

    Genesis Chapter 1 accounts for God creating everything and after each element it was stated that "it was good". Therefore Adam and Eve must have know what is good. All that they learnt from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil could only have been what is evil. Essential that Tree has been...

    I feel guilty for a promise I made her. Pretty sure most have been here...

    So... deal with what you have to at the moment. I doubt if the promise to your wife means you have to get married again immediately and... you really should not. We need time to grieve. The most eligible single lady at my Church lost her husband something like a decade ago and she still has...

    What do we do with a deep desire to be married again?

    Well... two years would be better if you are thinking in terms of starting another relationship... at least... that's what they recommend in divorce recovery and the death of a spouse is similar (only without any hope of reconciliation... so you don't have to go through the 'what if' bit). I...

    Paul and Ezekiel's Visions and NDEs?

    I do not know what was seen in another person's vision. Some of what the brother in my fellowship saw has provided, for him, some clarity on what has been written within scripture and a different perspective in some matters. Every teaching/word must be consistent with scripture and others within...

    not sure a baptist

    Baptist is a pretty fundamental denomination in which to be raised. (We don't have Southern Baptist so much where I'm from so I can only comment about the Church I was raised in). It tends to provide a fairly strong moral basis and a trust in the Word of God as being complete and infallible...

    Foggy Idolatry

    Ok. I suspect that all this comes done to motivations and relationship. Anyone who does not have relationship with God (through a personal commitment to Jesus Christ) is going to have motivations that are not of Him. They will worship an object, rather than God, because they think that, by doing...

    Paul and Ezekiel's Visions and NDEs?

    Being caught up to see that which is in heaven is not solely reserved for near death. It can happen for some as the Spirit has something to put upon the heart of His people. Not something I can speak to personally but we have had some within our fellowship that have been to heaven in a vision...

    Biblical Tithing is about Food - not money.

    Sigh, I told myself I would make no more comment in this strip but, perhaps, I must. New Testament is clear. Those who proclaim the gospel should live of the Gospel. Perhaps I should have included the subsequent verses as well. 1Co 9:9 For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not...

    Saw what I can only call a "sign" from God. Advice Needed.

    Well, for me, I cannot see that Acts 4:21 has much of anything that would constitute any call to action as a Christian unless you take the point that "all men glorified God for that which was done". In context, God had just healed, by Peter's hand, a man born lame and, after witnessing about...

    What denominations are similar to Baptists?

    In Australia it seems like the Baptist Church and the Church of Christ had common origins. I was informed that there was some sort of split in the church and, I think, the Church of Christ broke away from the Baptists but I have been unable to find out what caused that split. They must have been...
