filmore Hey Amgusthethird: I believe that some of these famous people are so caught up in the fame they are not fully prepared for sickness or sudden death when it comes. Yes life is short and we should use our time wisely. Fame can be good and bad at the same...

Ephesians 5:24 and Relationships

mikinikih @mikinikih (201) • United States 27 Aug 08

I recently have taken up the habit of reading the Bible again (something I haven't done regularly since I took confirmation classes as a teenager). While reading through the New Testament, I came across Ephesians 5:24, which says:...

filmore Suicide if an unforgiveable sin. I have heard of a saying "Never say Never;" but this is a definite "Never!!!" for me. I have been reading some of the responses and some say they don't have the courage to do it... When someone commits suicide it takes a lot...

filmore I am not American, but I think "In God we Trust" should stay on the American Currency. Watch what happens if it is taken off. And does the country afford this expense? I read about people voting on having anything "Godly", like the commandements, and the...

Why are you clinging?

clrumfelt @clrumfelt (5490) • United States 22 Aug 08

Does bitterness cause people to cling to religion? In my experience, bitterness has caused more people to reject religion than cling to it.

filmore Hi drumfelt: I do believe when people reach a certain point in life were there are no more answers left, they turn to getting in a religion. (1) Because physically, they see the strengths of those attending, and the gratitude they exhibit and want to have...

filmore Hi Pukaprat2 At some point in my life, I was doubtful. As a child I keep seeing images of a man figure standing in a white robe with his head covered. I could not see flesh, neither the face, just a mare image of a being. It stood on a rock and showed me...

In My Father's House

angusthethird @angusthethird (515) • United States 14 Aug 08

Do you think we will live in literal mansions in Heaven that we can see, touch, feel? Will it have kitchens, bathrooms? How about beds? Or is Jesus talking more figuratively here. Fellow Christians? Here's what I believe....

mansions

filmore I couldn't agree with you more. I am a developing convert and had never looked at it that way before. The songs says "where mansions are prepared for me" Mansions meaning a new body is very significant. John 14: 3 and Numbers 10:33 confirms this...

filmore I couldn't agree with you more. I live in the Caribbean and I find the music is comparable to the worldly one. If we call ourselves Christians/believers of Christ, we should be standing out. However some of us are "standing out" in the negative instead of the...
