Thank you for your patience as we transferred Online Baptist to a larger server. Unfortunately it did not go as smooth as I wanted as the last 50 posts were lost. I apologize for this. :(

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone had a life verse, and if you do, what is it and why? Mine is "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me" Philippians 4:13 Because when I first was saved, I had a hard time doing the right thing and living for God and not living to please others. But every time I was going through a trial my youth pastor's wife would give me that verse. So now I live by it because like everyone else I still have trials and I know I can get through them by remembering that verse! :mrgreen:

I see some talk about college teams here. Are there any NFL fans out there? I was born and raised in Denver so I bleed Orange and Blue. Go Broncos!

Does anyone here (or your spouse) like to cross stitch? Cross stitching is my favorite craft. The most difficult piece I have done is a work of lighthouses for my dad.

First, thanks Jerry and Anime for your answers. For some reason,... I'm having problems answering posts without making a new one. :? Question: When did you decide to turn your life over to Christ? I got saved this year. It happened soon after I almost died one day. That was scary. I been leaning on the Lord since.

The UNC Tar Heels are playing for the College World Series baseball championship tonight against Oregon State. Tonight's game is the deciding game, being played only an hour from my house. Unfortunately, I can't go. The North Carolina folks have been awfully quiet on here about another championship opportunity for UNC. Or is it that y'all are just Carolina basketball fans? :roll: Hmmm ... Mitch

For those of you (that includes me as well a few years later) attending college/university (esp. secular ones), be very careful! This is the place where a LOT of professing Christians fall away from the faith, after being exposed to the anti-God, anti-Bible teachings of some atheist professors. I've just talked today with my pastor and he told me a sad story of how a local church boy (Singapore) who was a deacon's child went to a USA university and came back a pagan, a reprobate (long hair, rock and roll rebel, believes in mysticism etc.) :cry: It saddens me when kids enters church at a little age and leave in their teens, and become cold, wicked reprobates. Of cou…

No, i don't mean like thinking about another person in the wrong way. I mean a greed or covetous kind of lust. So, I'm going to try to address a problem that seems to be a...Problem??? Anywho, I heard a preacher say one time that if you can't have to have it RIGHT THEN, its a lust. Be it a new car, a certain skill, or maybe food. But where does that leave us in the all so peculiar realm of Teenagers and how we do.... When it comes to this kind of lust, it is very unnoticeable by our own selves. We can see when we lust after another persons body, but its harder to tell when we want something so bad, that we become greedy and selfish. Take for example a friend of mi…

Tonight around midnight (EST) I will be doing some server maintenance to try and speed things up here. It should not long but the site might be very slow or down for a at least an hour. Sorry for the inconvenience but it will be worth it in the long run.

Is it normal for Baptists to ride a bike, or is that only for Mormons? :? I was told by my doc to ride a bike. So, its good for me and fun, saves gas too. I pass out more tracts on a bike than I ever could in a car. :!: I have a trailer for the grandbabys, :oops: A Camelbak for those day long rides, :cool: And plenty of racing of all kinds. :mrgreen:

I believe that we are living in the last days. I am looking forward to the Second Coming of Christ, but since the Lord has come back yet I shall do what I can for the Lord. When Online Baptist started (February 9, 2002) I had no idea that it would grow into what it has become today, as it is the best gathering of Christians anywhere on the Internet. May God get all the glory and honor in all this. We are not here to fight with one another as that is not Biblical, but we are all here for sweet fellowship and to uplift God. With all that being said I am opening a new chapter for Online Baptist. We are now offering articles for our community. We have much knowledge and wisdo…
