How To Love Step Children

I've been a step-child and have a step-son. My advice to you is from personal experience. My step-mother was not the best step-mom and because of it, I held alot of resentment towards her over the years. In September she passed away at the age of 58. We didn't expect her to pass away. It brought alot of old feelings to the surface and I wish I had treated her differently. She did form me into the person I am today because she raised me with my father. It has made me the best step-mom to my 4 y/o step-son. I love him but I know I will never love him the way I love my own children. I definitely try my hardest to make him feel comfortable and loved and I know he loves me by his actions. Take the time to try and that is all you can do.

Submissive Controling Husband
	I am having the same problems with my husband. He wants my life before him to be gone. Doesn't like anything that anyone has ever given to me. Doesn't even want me to go to church with my own father because he thinks that "men will try to pick you up". I love him so much but he is so difficult sometimes.

Should I Marry My Fiance
	Move out and do not marry an unbeliever. Get into a Bible study with Godly women and start raising your son in the Church.

Married To A Drunk Pastor
	Leave him. If you stay you are sending him the message his behavior is acceptable.

Does Obama Follow Evil Plan
	On July 28, 2009, Hawaii Health Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino issued a statement saying, "I ... have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen,".

Can We Continue To Sin

Thanks Donna, and a big AMEN to what you shared. I had my periods of rebellion as a believer. In fact, after during my divorce, I was fully prepared to just chuck Christianity's practice and live like the devil out of the pain. That was when my discipling friend just kept holding onto me as I cried, and questioned the Lord and His plan for me. She gave me Jeremiah 29:11, which I clung to so desperately I would cry and pray it to the Lord. The other thing she would do is remind me of Romans 8:38-39, and tell me that nothing separates me from God's love in Christ, including my rebellious attitude and sin.

Youth Pastor Tattoo

Betty: The online Greek dictionaries refer to stigma as a mark or brand. One Latin dictionary, Babylon, shows this definition for stigma "mark hot tattooed on runaway slaves/criminals, reproduction of Christ's wounds" I don't see your point about either stigma or tattoo, in the context of Leviticus forbidding them. Leviticus forbids a lot of stuff, and we are to obey the ones that are legal issues in the land in which we live. We don't just pick and choose which law is appropriate for today, and which is not. Beastiality is illegal. Tattoos are not illegal.

Healed Of Depression

Carla: Your ignorance of the mental health system is showing. Nobody can be "locked up in mental wards" against their wishes, UNLESS they threaten suicide or homocide,in the USA. If a diabetic asked you should they take insulin, would you tell them, "No, the Lord will heal you."? I hope not. I believe that medical issues should be left to the medical professionals, such as the doctors trained in psychiatry. Unless you have an M.D. after your name and are Board Certified in Psychiatry, you should not recommend a mentally ill person any sort of healing. I work in the mental health system, and I defer to the Psychiatrists on matters of mentally ill patients receiving medications.

Heathens Cast Out Demons

Matt. 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 7:23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. I think a false christian can cast out demons. I don't think a demon can. Matt. 12:26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself,how shall then his kingdom stand?

I Had A Demonic Dream And You

I have these nightmares maybe twice a week or every other week or so. I do not know if it is demonic but... It's always me lying down on my side and something is holding me from behind. It's pitch black and I cannot see anything. I know that it is not a good thing because whenever I try to fight it, it just hurts me. I have no idea what this thing is, but I've been having this same occurring nightmare for the longest. Yesterdays nightmare was quite different from the others, while trying to fight this thing, I could see that I was drawing something out of my body. They looks like huge slugs or leeches of some sort. Help?

Hurt By A Church

I was hurt by the church. Not just by one member but many. It happened a few months ago and I don't know why. I have been treated so horribly and without an explination. Nobody confronted me about anything I had done (which was my first thought). I have been so angry. Here I am months later, sitting in the dark because I don't know why. Where do you turn? The last place I want to be now is in church. I know to turn to God but I am unsure what He wants me to do.

Questions About Revelations

It is the false christ. He will come first showing signs and wonders as stated in Matt.24:24. Read Rev.13. Note 13:8. The Whole world will wonder after him.(they will think he is God) Also Note Dan11:24. He states the beast shall enter peaceably. Read I John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit but try the spirits weather they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hope this helps.

One World Church Movement
	I do believe there already is a one world church forming for antichrist. I don't believe it is a physical church. When Jesus places the seal of God on his Elect I think satan will be placing his own mark on his followers.

See Demons Everywhere
	Danelle, What exactly is a generational curse? Can you give a couple of examples?

See Demons Everywhere
	Tell her to read KJV-Luke 10:19-10:24! Demons are real! She is 18 and goes to church. Believe her. She told you for a reason. She wouldn't tell you if she didn't trust you. Also she probably has the gift of I Cor.12:10 discerning of spirits. There is a book I found to be useful and true called They shall expel demons by Derek Prince. available at bookstores and internet!!!

Offended By Women Pastors
	Acts 2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: ( make note that God said that daughters shall prophesy also)if you have the gift of discernment, you will know a liar be it man or woman! KJV

Democrats For Abortion
	Todd: When you speak of welfare recipients as being drugn abusing welfare cheats, I will ask you not to speak to that issue. That is a poor generalization of the people who are in need of assistance in our country. As for unemployment, there are not enough jobs that can support a family in our country. Minimum wage does not support a person, much less include medical benefits.

Watching Football A Sin
	Nurse: The other big sin is the way the Eagles have played this season. AARGH!
