Comment on God Will Make A Way - Psalms 77 by franklin

Hate to tell you this, but the evidence seems to suggest that Ron Wyatt was not entirely trustworthy. His claims are highly controversial and not accepted by most serious bible scholars.

Comment on Obama: “We are no longer a Christian nation…” by Jaqua (Jāy 'Quāy)

Jaqua (Jāy 'Quāy) — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 18:22:58 +0000

For those who insist that our founding fathers did not intend to base our nation on Christian principles, I have a few quotes for you to consider from just one of our founding fathers, John Adams (VP under George Washington, Delegate to the first and second continental congresses, 2nd President):

“The general principles upon which the Fathers achieved independence were the general principles of Christianity…I will avow that I believed and now believe that those general principles of Christianity are as eternal and immutable as the existence and the attributes of God.”
[June 28, 1813; Letter to Thomas Jefferson]

“We recognize no Sovereign but God, and no King but Jesus!”
[April 18, 1775, on the eve of the Revolutionary War after a British major ordered John Adams, John Hancock, and those with them to disperse in “the name of George the Sovereign King of England." ]

• “[July 4th] ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty.”
[letter written to Abigail on the day the Declaration was approved by Congress]

“We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” –October 11, 1798

“I have examined all religions, as well as my narrow sphere, my straightened means, and my busy life, would allow; and the result is that the Bible is the best Book in the world. It contains more philosophy than all the libraries I have seen.” December 25, 1813 letter to Thomas Jefferson

“Without Religion this World would be Something not fit to be mentioned in polite Company, I mean Hell.” [John Adams to Thomas Jefferson, April 19, 1817]

Thanks for this. I’ve had a fork standing in my path for the past few years and this really brought me some comfort and encouragement.

Comment on Song Lyrics by JoAn

I don’t know the name of the song I’d love to have the lyrics. I heard it once in a church as a solo and once on Christian radio but didn’t get the name. It must have been something like, “Please pray for me and I Will pray for you”. There is a line with “when your down on your knees”. I hope you know which song I’m asking for… :>(

Thanks, JoAn

Comment on Sanctified Annointing Oil & Incense - Exodus 30 by Ursula

Ursula — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 11:39:08 +0000

I have not been able to find a place where these questions have been answered and I was wondering what was said in answer to Rosemary. I, myself, was researching annointing oil, but when I saw her question was shocked. Dear sweet Rosemary, someone needs to let her now that YES, it is okay for “non-clergy” to annoint. That He does not esteem one over another, that we are all equally loved and important in His sight, just have different jobs to do. And that, Yes, it is okay to be “so bold as to think” that you have “any authority to annoint the sick” on any level. This dear sister needs to be gently reminded about when Jesus was ready to ascend He said that He was going away, He was sending our Comforter (aka the Holy Spirit), that we would be able to do more wonderous works than He had. It just takes faith. Whatsoever you ask, in His name, in faith believing, so shall you receive. In Luke 9:1, “Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.: (KJV) Luke 10:19-20, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.” The root word for disciple is discipline, if you are disciplined in the teachings of Christ, have received HIS gift of salvation, then this power also belongs to you, rather you are a clergy member or not. You are a child of the living King.

Below is an EXACT quote from the US treaty with Tripoli to which you referred earlier. Be careful that you do not CHANGE the quote to suit your argument as it is irresponsible and makes you look like a jerk.

“Art. 11. As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Mussulmen; and, as the said States never entered into any war, or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties, that no pretext arising from religious opinions, shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries.”

Comment on Christians Caught in Sexual Sin - 1 Corinthians 5 by Irene

Irene — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 04:21:17 +0000

I read your article thoroughly and with conviction. I just recently came out of a sexual immoral relationship. Yes. he is an unbeliever ,but he insisted that he was a chrisitan. He stated to me that he did accept Jesus Christ as his personal saviour,but He casually engages in sex. He has no convicts about engaging in this behavior as well. What is worse I became involved with him and his requirement was for me to engage in sex if I wanted to be with him. I compromised and let’s just say the final result is I got hurt in the end. Throughout the entire time of our relationship I felt myself falling further and further away from God. What made it even worse is that I continued to teach God’s word ,but I was convicted the entire time.To make a long story short, He end up dumping me to go back with his ex and am left standing confused and alone. I felt so ashame of the acts that I engaged in and felt that I allowed someone to use me to fulfill their desires. I compromised my relationship with God for a man who neither love or respect me. For people who say ,” having sex outside of marriage causes no harm.” THEY ARE SO WRONG. Sexual immorality hurts. It causes depression and confusion . It breaks relationships and causes loneliness. I tell myself all the time if I could turn back the hands of time I would run as fast as I could. I still see this person from time to time and he still is not convicted about his behavior.Please pray for me my heart is really broken and am now on medications to help me sleep and for depression. I hope my story will encourage others to not engage in this behavior at all.

We need to pray that’s all I can say. We need to pray hard for God is still in control. But we need to come together in prayers and petition to God that we really need a christian leader for our country, only God can save this United States. So, please remember to pray like what Philip 4:6-8 says “be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.”
