Thread split from [url]http://onlinebaptist.com/messageboards/viewtopic.php?t=16166[/url], which I hijacked after noticing what Kevin said about Sean Hannity: ______________________________________________________ [quote="kevinmiller"] You must not have listened to Sean very much. There isn't anything liberal about him. And he often talks about God on his program. He is very conservative and has come out against the president several times. And it's not Bortz Janet, I was thinking about Michael Savage. :) [/quote] [quote="kevinmiller"] I haven't watched his tv program, only clips. I still can't figure how he is liberal by any stretch of the imagination. A…

This is a rather Long post sorry guys I just thought it would be intresting to see your responses I wrote this a while back and thought maybe I would share it. It used to be that whenever I was in Hamilton, I would visit a charismatic church. I liked it there. The music felt great and it was noisy. There were also some really nice people with whom I hung out and I often visited their cell groups. Although these cell groups would study books and comment on them, they also encouraged me to read my Bible, which I did. Suddenly, God's Holy Spirit was doing "a number" on me as I was reading. And also suddenly, I felt a little, no, very uncomfortable at the services. I wa…

I have recently pondered a new argument against Calvinism that I would like your thoughts on. It is regarding the Calvinist belief that God controls all things based upon predestination and sovereignty, and the lack of uniformity among Calvinists and John Calvin's own beliefs. My theory is that if God forced salvation against our wills, and Jesus affirmed that if any man will do His will he shall KNOW of the doctrine, then would it make sense that God would impose salvation, but not uniformity in doctrine among Calvinists? If God forces salvation, then why wouldn't He logically force ones belief system? If God is the author of sin, He would be the author of heresy as w…

Could someone please clarify your beliefs? I notice that you list several "false" religions. I am not disputing that most of the religions you list are in fact false; clearly I and the Bible refutes your idea of the church of Christ being a false religion. But, to the point, do you believe that the IFB is the only true church? If not, what are some other true churches/religions? I thank all who provide information on this.

Hi everyone. Catholics believe in transubstantiation or the "real presence" of Christ in the Eucharist or communion. What is wrong with this belief? Please explain.

Can anyone link a few good sites that go through the history of the Catholic church persecuting the earlier Christians? Those that were called Anabaptists and before that? A website that has references would be preferred but not necessary per say.

Billy Graham 1 2 3 4 8

Billy Graham Attended Reformed Presbyterian Church as a youth with his parents & while attend it he claimed to have been saved. The Presbyterian Church claims one is saved because of grace, yet they hold to lots of the same teaching of the RRC & Lutheran, that this saving grace is extended though baptizing & the Lord's Supper. I had been told that he grew up as a Baptist, that was not true, it seems his 1st experience with Baptist was the 1st church he was pastor of was 1st Baptist Missionary Church of Western Springs in IL. Now I understand where he was coming from in accepting false teaching about being saved, & joining together will the Cathol…

I've heard this many times before, but I still have yet to hear ANY evidence of such a thing. What basis do baptists have in saying they can trace their roots allll the way back to the time of Christ?

Is anyone here well-educated in refuting the heresies of the church of Christ? I see one of them often when I am downtown street preaching. He says that one must repent, believe AND be baptized to be saved. He uses the following verses: Acts 2:38 38Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Mark 16:16 16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. and a few others. When I show him verses such as Eph 2:8,9 and so on he says that since those letters are written to christians that being b…

I am a Catholic who attends the local Catholic parish on Saturday Vigil Mass. I also attend the local Baptist Church on Sunday mornings where I was Baptized via immersion(as a public profession of faith that I gave my life to Christ some 20 years ago) on 21 May 2017. I am both Catholic and Baptist as the result of having been Baptized via immersion at that Baptist Church. In the fall I will take membership preparation class in order to become a member of that Baptist Church I attend on Sunday mornings.

While In the hospital a united methodist women minister(we won't bother w/ that!) come to visit. I' m clearly listed as Baptist so I don't know why she came to my room!!?? Felt like the Lord was telling me to just ask her Questions so I did. We were able to get really far thru salvation by grace, repentance etc. but then I ask her if they thought they could lose their salvation and she said yes!! but only if they did a a realy ,really bad thing! So I began to ask her for examples but two dr.s I HAD to see came in and our conversation ended. So can anyone tell me about this? Do United Methodist believe they can lose their salvation?? Pixiedust :puzzled:

I have known a lot of people who tell about visions and dreams and stuff like that. Some one asked me a question and keeps asking me the same question so I am going to ask it on here because I have never really looked in the bible about it so I thought I would ask on here What is the biblical interpretation of visions and dreams? Are they biblical?

Hi everyone. Did the Catholic Church start when Constantine legalized Christianity? Is that why there are so many pagan doctrines in the Catholic Church today? What do you say? :puzzled:

How many times are Christians warned against the cult of Freemasonry? I can't remember ever hearing any warnings against Freemasonry from the pulpit. Other than one time I travelled about 35 miles to hear a guest speaker from the other side of the world. Any views?

Was tracting today in a very hispanic area and ran into some Jehovah's witnesses setting up at an Hispanic shopping center. Of course I got the very very very polite. No thank you to my (our) tracts. 1 Tim 3:16 the way to start a conversation with those people. They do upset me to a degree because they love setting up in public places distributing their really bad error. So I'm not kind all the time either. That gang in Brooklyn has quite a scheme going and I let them know that in no uncertain terms. What I think of their "organizers" is not much. Jehovah's witness's in my opinion are so polite and good in appearance it defies reality. They kind of remind m…

Ok, I made this thread to learn more about Christianity. I am reading the Bible on my own but, I'm going to have questions so I hope to post them here. Hopefully, since you guys know more about your religion than I do, you can help me relate your beliefs to mine to make this easier to understand and, in the end, easier to give up my own beliefs for yours. I want you all to understand that I'm not Odinist simply because one day I just chose to be. My beliefs are all I have left of my biological parents save for a picture and a necklace. This isn't going to happen over night but, I have to start somewhere. Anyways, for my first questions. After reading Genisis a few times…

A friend and I talked to two Mormon Missionaries who approached us as we worked on my sons truck. It turned into an hour + conversation. They got very interested when I told them I attended the Mormon Church as a boy. Their Joy left when I told them I was an Assistant Pastor of a Baptist Church. I have talked to many mormons and Mormon missionaries. They all have something different to say. The last one ( about a year ago) said the Book of Mormon was just a bunch of stories to help us understand the Bible. :loco These guys had certain verses memorized which they quoted way way way out of context to fit baptism of the dead and the like. When I asked them to turn …

Did I mention here thar I am a graduate of Biochemistry? Maybe some should contact the University of Yaounde 1 with the registration number 08R0585. OR my faculty email if it is permitted to post here. You will understand what is mean to move from grace to grass -
You don't have to be sorry. You are right. Internet is virtually free. There is Ayoba the gives 100megabytes daily for old customers. That is enough for my daily use. I don't move to places. My movement is limited. I don't need to pay. Apart from that. There a fortunate days that I can find something to earn 500f ($0.85). @BrotherTony I don't pray you experience this but if you can experience hunger in a day, if you have can experience what some people in war zones goes through just for a day. You will understand why I it difficult to avoid crimes. A grain of peanut is a great fortune that sometimes you need to chew one for basal metabolism and to stay alive. It's been since 2016 for some of us.

I'm sorry that you're experiencing such hardship. But, doing wrong, especially when you KNOW that it is wrong, and making excuses for doing so is only more proof that you are NOT trying to do that which is right and acceptable by the Lord. As Jerry has pointed out, whatever is not of faith is sin. Without faith it's IMPOSSIBLE to please God. I'm going to be blunt here...you continue to jump from one evil to the next saying that you know it's wrong, all the while also posting that you're relying on God. In this I find you to be a liar and of no more need of response from me. The constant posting of your sins here bring you to the classification of an internet troll in my book. If you have no money, how are you paying for Internet service? How do you move from place to place with no funds? I'm sorry, but, I'm not buying it. -
Hunger became my way of life. Sicknesses and homelessness became a part of me. I resisted and waited on the lord for years. I have written many letter to organizations, churches and everywhere necessary no change. I went hungry from Tuesday to Thursday. I ate nothing. I was shivering and looking sick and very weak. On Friday I met some individuals, homeless and hungry. They had already organized a gang. They said since no one want to share, the rather steal than die of hunger. We have been together since Friday. Yesterday we went to gambling house and I am learning to gamble too. In the night we went to a few places and telling me how i can recognize someone who has money and how to lunch an attack. I think I am part of them. It’s is regrettable but one I am able, I will abandon them. It os regrettable what I found myself doing. I feel bad about it but that is better than joining the separatist fighters

I learned that gambling can foster a spirit of greed and covetousness. That individuals may focused on the desire for financial gain than on trusting in God's provision. (1 Timothy 6:10). I sin, aften. It may not be an excuse but i do it to stay alive. I don't need an excuse to commit sin again. When life is hard. Crime is obvious. It is the recent group I joined the led me to discovering gambling.
