    Quiet quitting

    Nothing anymore, apart from taking a shower. I know that sounds a bit strange. But the water feels soothing. Someone says it's depression. I don't think so. I don't feel sad or down. I just feel like I'm a paper cut-out. I'm not even quite sure why I'm asking this.. I don't need the answer...

    Quiet quitting

    Do you Christians experience feeling empty and sometimes terrified of nothing? Like your atoms are drifting away from each other. Or, did you used to feel like that but Christ closed the gap? It feels like hanging in a gap sometimes with no sides. Sometimes this is very very difficult. Do...

    Why is it not in the Bible?

    The book of Enoch is quoted/referenced in the NT a few times... but is it left out of the Bible itself. Early Christians used it and the Ethiopians still do.. ... So what don't the Western Christians include this scripture? Luke 3:37: Briefly mentions Enoch in the genealogy of Jesus. Hebrews...

    But doesn't... 'In God we trust' contradict you.. if you trust God, just leave it to him.

    Politics

    Some Christians don't get involved in politics and leave the material world concerns to others. But then on the other side there are those who let their religion inform and guide their political choices. Then again, there are those who really take advantage of people's religious beliefs to...

    Will you face defeat?

    Should Christians washing each others feet be a regular occurrence.. I believe I happens in some churches once in a while, but maybe it should be done regularly as a practice in humility? “It was just before the Passover Festival. Jesus knew that the hour had come for him to leave this world...

    Life in the fast lane

    Has anybody here done longer term fasting? I've heard of some people who fast for a whole week, and some for 40 days. What sort of effect did it have on you? Did it help you feel closer to God? How did you do it?

    Revival

    I live in Wales and, particularly in the 19th century there have been significant revival movements in Christianity, with hundreds and hundreds of chapels being built. These days many of these old chapels are still around but with few members, and as the older members die off, so these old...

    Psychic ability and Christians

    Some people describe the possibility of various psychic ability... I wonder how Christians relate to that. If you had psychic ability.. works you use it, or would it always be a bad thing? Could it every be a good thing?

    The jews

    Oh that's ok then? They aren't going to hell, just being denied life... ... the point is they are severely punished one way or the other. Anne Frank is either in hell or dead according to Christianity... ... but some of the Nazi's may be in heaven... not because they were lovely people, they...

    Onward Christian Soldiers!

    Is there a Christian form of holy war, or of defending the faith by force of arms, that is justifiable in scripture.. Or is it turn the other cheek in such circumstances as Christians, or Christian lands, coming under dire threat from a different religion, or the irreligious?

    Non Christian morality

    I think what I'm really talking about here is not human morality, but God's morality. He can condemn to hell those of different religions, he can command the slaughter of women and babies. He can drown a whole planet, killing animals, as well as children and babies in the process... Yet, this...

    The jews

    I don't believe in God as a self existent creature.

    The jews

    Dont be obtuse... Morality and the basis for that morality are two different things. But a functioning morality can be worked out from the basis of not harming others... obviously when we take into account all the interactions and interconnections that can get very complex and nuanced.

    The jews

    Jesus himself declared he is the ONLY way to heaven. The ramifications of that are profound, and Christians should big-up and stand by what their religion declares.

    The jews

    Gravity is a demonstrable fact.. it must be accepted. Clearly your belief is based on faith, not scientific fact. That's not to say that therefore it's not true.. but it's not something that I'm compelled by experience to accept... it is something that is accepted through faith... or not...

    I'm not insulting your God, I'm just saying how he looks to outsiders. If you want to demonstrate how a morality based on not harming others is insufficient, then please do do
