Rainbows are such a breathtaking phenomenon to behold. There have been times where I have looked out after a storm, and I have seen a vivid rainbow shimmering in the sky. It doesn’t matter how many times I have seen them, each and every time they leave me breathless. They also make me praise God [...]
Forgiveness in the Bible | What Does the Bible Say About Forgiveness/Forgiving Others | Holding Grudges
January 23, 2011 by
Forgiveness in the bible is one of the greatest blessings that God has given us, and one of the greatest blessings we can give to others. If we all lived by the mantra “an eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth,” we would all be blind and toothless. Instead, we must forgive others who wrong [...]
Is Atheism a Religion? Are Atheists Fundamentalists in their Religious Belief System?
February 1, 2010 by
One thing I find funny is that atheists I talk to often like to vigorously deny that atheism is a religion. They usually say that atheism is not a religion, and that they get annoyed when us “idiot” (brilliant) Christians call atheism a religion. They insist they are not religious at all, and atheism should not [...]
Is Smoking Weed a Sin? | Is Pot Sinful? | What Does the Bible Say About Marijuana, Weed, Pot?
January 27, 2010 by
Is smoking weed a sin? Does the bible mention pot? Should Christians smoke marijuana? These are all valid questions. I mean, after all, some suggest that smoking pot could never be a sin since God gave us this herb. Let’s examine the scriputes, use logic, and see if smoking marijuana (aka, Mary Jane, Pot, Wacky Weed, etc.) [...]
Are You a Compartmentalized Christian? Judge Yourself!
September 18, 2009 by
Recently, a guy by the name of Phillip Garrido was found to have allegedly kidnapped, raped, and fathered children with a young girl (Jaycee Duggard). As I read the chilling story in the news, I was absolutely shocked and disgusted. How could anyone do something so terrible to an innocent child? How could a grown man allegedly kidnap [...]
A Quick Reply To a Critique About End Times
September 16, 2009 by
Some Questions/Critiques About The End Times Article I Wrote I had an interesting set of questions come in regarding end times. It helps a lot to know where people are coming from when they ask a question (and by that I mean what their religious beliefs are). At first, I thought this person was perhaps [...]
Why Are There So Many Christian Denominations?
September 3, 2009 by
There is a great joke I once heard that I would like to share with everyone, which pokes fun at the attitude of many Christians today: “I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off. So I ran over and said ‘Stop! Don’t do [...]
Are We In the End Times Right Now? Is the World Going to End Soon?
August 19, 2009 by
In my last post on the end times signs, I listed some of the signs the bible gives us to know when the “end times” will officially begin. As I stated previously, the signs themselves mark the beginning of the end, not the end itself. When you first open the bible, you read; “In the beginning, [...]
What Does the Bible Say About Signs of The End Times? Will the World End Soon?
August 19, 2009 by
There is no doubt at all that eventually planet Earth will be destroyed. The interesting thing is that the Bible has quite a few things to say about these this event. In fact, Jesus himself gave us several signs we can see to know when the end times will be nearing. We must keep in [...]
Does the Bible Say the World Will Ever End?
August 14, 2009 by
One of my great fascinations with the bible has always been the things that will come to pass in what is often referred to as the “end times.” So many elements interest me about this topic, ranging from the Antichrist, judgement, new Heaven and Earth, resurrection, Christ’s return and millennial reign, and more. There are [...]
My Christian Boyfriend Wants to Break Up Because I am an Unbeliever
August 14, 2009 by
Whew, I have been so busy lately that I haven’t been blogging as much as usual. However, I am going to try and catch up over the next 2 or 3 days on a few questions and some things I have wanted to post about. I have a question regarding faith and relationship problems. Here [...]
Some Dialogue on Sin and Christianity
August 4, 2009 by
My blogging friend Eruesso recently commented on an article concerning Christian friendship and Jesus hanging out with sinners. Eruesso has just provided another comment in relation to those things: I believe the fork in our inter-blog dialogue road is based firmly in the definition of Sin/Sinner. What I was pointing out was the historical definition [...]
Why Did Jesus Hang Out With Sinners and Tax Collectors?
August 3, 2009 by
On a recent article I tacked the question of “should Christians be close friends with non-Christians?” I think there are certainly some interesting scriptures we must take into account, and I am left with the impression that while Christians should be “friends” with everyone (in the sense of being friendly and loving), it probably isn’t [...]
I Have an Extreme Feeling of Fear, Panic, and Anxiety of God (Theophobia)
July 31, 2009 by
Sometimes people can develop very serious mental conditions where they may develop a phobia or extreme fear of a certain thing or person. For example, Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder, often precipitated by the fear of having a panic attack in a setting from which there is no easy means of escape. Anthropophobia is a pathological [...]
What Does the Bible Say About Love? Is God Love?
July 29, 2009 by
If you go to a bible software program online (such as biblegateway.com), and type in the word “love,” it pulls up as high as 697 results in the bible. There is no doubt about it, the bible has much to say on love. So in this article I want to do the following: Talk about [...]
