   Hello Do you believe that a Christian has free will or do you believe that his choices are all determined in some way or other beforehand by God?

   Deut 24:16 vs Joshua 7

   This topic probably belongs in another forum. But I didn't see one that looks quite right for it. There is a question that has always come to my mind and I have found no answer for. Pastors I have asked have offered no help. None of my reading has covered it. So hopefully some where out there some one can clear my question. My question is not to be interpreted as questioning the infalibity of Scripture. That is not the point at all. How can we reconcile Deu 24:16 "The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin" with the death of Aachan's family i…

   If I may, I would like to request the guidance of others on this Forum regarding the issue of gender-specific dress. A few years ago, when I read Deuteronomy 22:5, “The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God” I took that instruction to heart and stopped wearing trousers. Occasionally, I come across women (usually women from my place of employment but this would also happen at the Southern Baptist Church I used to attend) who ask me why I never wear pants but only long skirts and dresses. I would show them Deut. 22:5 and I would be accused of bein…

   Develop Problem-Solvers — Leading Healthy Change Part 8

   • 775 views

   We’re talking about leading healthy change. In Part One we discussed discerning “good change” and “bad change.” In Part Two we discussed the starting point of appreciating “what is” and managing the tension between “what is” and “what could be.” In Part Three we began discussing the first two of six steps in the process—building healthy relationships and communicating effectively. In Part Four we revisited and developed the ideas of building strong relationships. In Part Five we dug a bit deeper into effective communication and examined why it is so vital. In Part Six we discussed enlisting a team of spiritually mature leaders. In Part Seven we examined how effecti…

   [quote] Keeping their hearts in love with God was Israel's key to obedience and closeness to God. [/quote] [b]A Heart For God[/b] By Vince Londini Deuteronomy 4:9 teaches true believers in any dispensation how to keep their hearts in tune with God. Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons' sons; Deuteronomy 4:9 [b]Take Heed To Thyself[/b] "Take heed" could read, "Pay attention!" "Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices" (2 Corinthians 2:11). …

    Dichotomy vs Trichotomy 1 2 3 4

    • 15.5k views

    I used to be a trichotomist until perhaps half a year ago. For about half a year, I've been a dichotomist now. I'm wondering what your guys' opinion is and why as well as the practical implications of your opinion. I believe that all truth has a practical application, and so I believe that dichotomy has it's practical application as well, but it has a lot to do with reformed theology, though it doesn't have to. So I want to know what you guys would say about it first.

    Heb 11:24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; Heb 11:25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; Heb 11:26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward. Joh 8:56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. Some people tell me that those such as Moses, & Abraham, knew nothing about Christ, knew Him not, yet the Bible seems to portray that they knew Him, knew about the promised Savior, even to the point of saying Moses esteeme…

    Did anyone start a Duggar thread yet?

    Thanks to the Duggar family, Christians are now officially the most despised group in America. We were already almost there, but now I think the world officially hates us. Even though I don't consider their brand of Christianity to be the same as mine, the world doesn't care. They lump everybody in together, and now they equate anti-gay with being a pervert. Great.

    Did Faith Come Easily For You?

    • 703 views

    I was discussing this with a friend and thought it would make an interesting topic since everybody is different. Think about the differences between the woman at the well and Nicodemus. The woman who had never even met Jesus before believed immediately and easily and went to tell others about Him. Nicodemus was more cautious, maybe needing some intellectual answers. Jesus kindly and graciously (He didn't upbraid him for coming to Him at night for secrecy) answered Nicodemus' questions and taught him about salvation. Anyway, the question is: did faith come easily for you? Tell us about it. :smile

And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.” (Mark 15:44-45) The absolute and total physical death of Christ is essential to the gospel.

    DID JESUS FOLLOW ROMANS 13? Coach Dave Daubenmire January 17, 2008 NewsWithViews.com ?Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.? Romans 13:1-2 This kind of question makes many folks nervous. I don?t do it to cause anyone to get theological-hives. It is just that sometimes these crazy issues pop into my head. As I often tell readers, I am not a theologian.

Before I was a Christian, I learned this teaching from the book The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ by Levi Dowling, which I read in about 1972. At the time, I was convinced that it was true. The book claims that Jesus spent 18 years of his life (called the “hidden” or “silent years,” between age 1…
