Where Is Jesus

Absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. the Word also says that he will come again and receive us unto himself. In addition, on the day he steps out and calls us the dead in Christ will rise first. The thief was told by Jesus that "today you will be with me". We don't really know but God is trustworthy, so of all the things to be concerned about in living by His word what is the fear?

Is Cussing Sinful
	I would have to say that cursing is a manifested result that sin is present in the life of the one doing it. We always focus on the act and the real issue is with the heart, Proverbs 15:23. God is looking at our heart, and we should be examining it as well. When the heart is healthy, the speech and deeds will be too.

Spanking Young Teenage Girl
	Even at the age of 17 years of age, if I was disrespectful I received a spanking. My husband and I also practice Christian Domedtic Discipline. I do not resent my spankings as a child and teen, and I am marrief to a man who loves me, and respects me.

Obama's Marijuana Possession

I believe that people at times do need help. But I also believe that people have to take responsibility for there actions. Should President Obama help his half brother? I do not believe that just because Obama is our new President, that he should get his half brother off the hook. Half brother or not, should he show favortism to his half brother? His brother needs to take responsibility for his actions. If it was you or I what would happen to us? We would go to jail. Think about it!

What Is Confidence In Flesh
	No confidemce means no trust, faith or reliance in the flesh. The word flesh is the whole natural, or unregenerate man, spirit, soul and body, as centered upon self, prone to sin and opposed to God(Rom. 7:18). The regenerate man is not in the spere of the flesh, but in the spere of the spirit(Rom. 8:9). The flesh is still in him and it is his choice to walk after the flesh, or in the spirit.

Pastor Has Bad Habits

Angela,awesome question, a Pastor should mirror what is preached through him by the Holy Spirit. His life should line up with the word of God. Now I know that Pastors are not perfect, none of us are, YET. Have you tried talking to him about this? This is just my opinion but if it was me, I would first PRAY to the Lord, next talk to your family then focus on what God would have you to do. Your Pastor could be hurting the body of Christ which in itself does not bring glory to God. God Bless!

Economy Is In A Recession

America is a great country, but what has happened?? Only one word comes to mind.... GREED. The bailout plan that our President has proposed is only a temporary fix. We need to keep our eyes fixed on one, and that is the Lord, Jesus Christ. Matthew, chapter 24 comes to mind, and as our Lord Jesus said When you see all these things occur, this is just the beginning of things to come. Things will continue to get worse, but God is in control. Praise the Lord!

Pray To Quit Drinking

Emily, when you pray, are you praying with faith? Do you believe that God can change him? I know that when we pray for someone that we have to have faith in God and believe that God in His timing will answer the prayer that has been prayed. Give this person totally to God for we can change no one, but Almighty God can. He created us all and He knows us better than we know ourselves. TRUST GOD! Amen..

Valley Of Dry Bones
	Mima, according to the Scofield Bible, The bones are the whole house of Israel who shall then be living. The graves are the nations where they dwell. The order of procedure is: the bringing of the people out(vs. 12), the bringing of them in(vs. 12), their conversion(vs.13), the filling with the Spirit(vs. 14). God Bless!

Pastors Wife Goes To Other Church
	Speaking from a pastor's wife's perspective, this was seriously funny. You only have to read the repsonses to understand why the wife goes to a different church:)

God's Will For My Job
	pray about your options,ask God for guidance,believe that He hears you,believe that He will answer you and He will give you Peace in your heart about what His will is for you. Trust God and be patient. You will know. God bless!

Book Of Mormon
	Hi Bob, no I am not the Cynthia that has been here for two years. I am fairly new to this site, been here about three months.

List Of Honorable Charities

Greetings Mr. Graham. I would recommend Voice of the Martys. I would actually classify it more of a ministry, but what they do is help persecuted believers that are being tortured and many times jailed for their faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. They have a prison alert that involves us sending letters of encouragement to our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ. Also feed the children is a charity that you may want to find out more information about. God bless!

Family Of Men Who Cheat

Claudine, first of all, as long as you tolerate this type of behavior, your husband is going to continue to do this. No one made him do this it all boils down to choices. He made the choice to do drugs and commit adultery. Please do not continue to be a doormat for this man. Talk to a Lawyer and divorce him. Move on with your life. God does not want you to stay in a relationship such as this. God Bless!

Still Friends With Trouble Maker
	Carla I agree with you and may I add do not let anyone use you as a doormat, so to speak. I have learned from my own personal experiences, that people will take advantage of you , but only if you let them. Great question and Carla a very wise answer! God Bless you!!

What Is The Gospel

The one and only Gospel is the love of God in that while we were yet sinners, God came down from Heaven in the person of Jesus Christ in all humanity, yet in all His diety. The God-man willing laid down His life for us to have eternal life. God rescued our souls from hell. Even though Adam and Eve brought sin into the world, Jesus Christ redeemed us , took our place on the Cross of Calvary and paid the price for us, and why? Because he loves us. We choose to either reject or recieve Him.

Blog For Single Parents
	I am a single mom of a teenage boy. It is definately a difficult task. I do a lot of praying. I would love to talk to other single moms. Cynth4498

People That Speak Out

to my dear sister Kella, When I used to be so overweight, I too heard a lot of negative and cruel comments, so I quickly learned that the best way to treat someone like that is with kindness, and to pray for that particular person. When you treat them with kindness, that is something that they are not expecting, and it catches them offguard. Keep your eyes fixed on our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He is with us always. You are special in the eyes of the Lord! God Bless you sister Kella.

Who Was Scofield

He was a former lawyer, chosen of God to produce the most widely known reference Study Bible in the English language. He was not converted till the age of 36 after fighting alcoholism, and suffering through a failed marriage and from his life we learn that God can use any of us, no matter what our past , and that God can even use us in the later years of our life. He was born in 1843, and he died in 1921.
