Get Out Of This Marriage

Sue, God cares much for you and is right there with you. Christ alone can give you love and joy of life and peace in the heart -do you believe this or not? What life testimony will you give? This other man - is he a Christian and in love with God? In principle I would doubt it. For a heart in tune with the affections of Christ is self-sacrificing -he would look out heaven's best interest not his own. Fall in love with Jesus, read the Gospels, Philippians 2:5-8 -He gave all to prove/reveal His love for you, Sue, and is able to fulfill your heart's need for this pure love. You and friends intercede forcefully for you husband and God will answer.

Adam's Choice To Sin

For just sake of argument it is not right to present something that is heretical in nature just to argue with someone. markv, Shawn MT was the first to present with argument something heretical in nature. Shawn MT repented. How do you reconcile your twisting this to kathr4453 presenting something heretical in nature. Everything presented here by kathr4453 has shown diligence in study, scripture and presentation. markv, there is something seriously wrong in your attacks here. Using words like heretical is beyond malicious slander. Is this not the manifestation of Calvin himself? Repent markv!

Replacement Theology Satanic

The church does not replace Israel. Israel is Almighty God's spiritual firstborn, and Gentiles are His second born. It doesn't matter which group you "belong" to, the important part is the New Birth. John 3:3 says 'Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God.' Verse 6 says 'That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.' If you want to get technical, every we're all a child of God through Adam and Eve, even the Moslims and other religions. However, they have rebelled against God the Father as have most of the Jews. Would you accept your rebellious children back into your home after they have rejected your countless offers of forgiveness, pardon, and mercy?

Christians Live During Tribulation

Some Christians will also go thru the "great tribulation" of Israel. Specifically, 144,000 Jewish believers. They endure the time of wrath because of the special seal of God upon them. Hence, Christians will be on the earth before the pre-trib rapture, after the rapture (during the trib.) and also during the time of wrath right up until Jesus returns to Olivet. Will WE go through the tribulation?? Not if we're ready to face what's coming upon the whole world. Otherwise, yes. It's good to remember that Daniel did not waver when the test came. He refused the king's edict and for 30 days he worshipped as he always had. How many Christians today would gladly give up their daily devotions for just 30 days? Foolish??

Christians Live During Tribulation

There is a "great tribulation" for the church, and a "great tribulation" for Israel. The saints who go through the great tribulation of the church are made up of those Christians who were not ready to occupy heaven at the time of the (pre-trib) rapture. The tribulation will purify them and make them ready. Other "tribulation saints" will be those who are saved during this time. Therefore, like the five foolish virgins, many Christians who are not ready will go through the "great tribulation

Must Submit To Husband
	Do not submit to him in this. THe Bible says wives submit to your husband as you would to Christ. Christ would not want you to endanger your health.

Is Herbert Armstrong A Cult Leader

Herbert Armstrong was an incestuous godless man and cult leader. While he touted the Bible, he disobeyed its teachings. Just because a man opens up a Bible and talks about it and even promotes some of its teachings does not make that man a godly man. That some of Armstrong's teachings jive with the Bible does not give anything he said or did credibility. The fact that he hit on some truth, does not make him any type of prophet. He taught many false doctrines along with some true ones, making him a false teacher. Any one who mixes truth and error cannot be a man of God, but rather a deceiver. Those who followed him were following a man, not God, and a very ungodly man at that.

Is Taking Medicine A Sin

As a Christian I believe that God has provided us with medicines to help heal us. The Father provides for us in many forms. It's kind of like the joke about the preacher who is stranded on his roof during a great flood. A helicopter comes along and offers to rescue him. The preacher tells them, "Thanks, but God shall rescue me". A while later a man in a boat comes along and offers to rescue the man. Again, he tells them "Thanks, but God shall rescue me". Eventually the waters rise and sweep the preacher from his roof and he drowns. He stands in front of the Father and asks him "Father, why did you not rescue me?" to which the Father replies, "I sent you an helicopter and a boat and you refused".

I Never Loved My Husband
	I think this world separates couples so much these days and leaves NO room for marriage. I think that you love your husband but that you have gone a different way for so long that you grew apart. Get to know each other again, unless there is someone else that you really want instead of him.

Is A Divorced Pastor Proper
	If the man did not believe in vain...and he is seated in heavenly places...and he has the forgiveness of sins...and he is accepted in the beloved...THEN THERE SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM! Quote me on it!

Do I Need To Ask For Forgiveness

If you have not believed in vain, then you are saved. Right? If you are saved, you are: Eph 1:6 "accepted in the beloved" Eph 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace, [You have right now the forgiveness of sins, past, present, and future] For the standards of this world you should repair the relationship with this person, and be a witness for Christ.

Theophostic Healing Ministry

I support TheoPhostic. (Theo-God,Phostic-light) God's light. The ministry is about letting the Lord take you to where you need to heal, and as your mind thinks back to an experience, if there is a bad emotion attached, the person ministering prays for you and asks the Lord to speak his truth about the experience, and reveal the lie that you might have believed from the experience. i.e. I didn't get invited to a birthday party, so my friends didn't like me. As you hear the one true Jesus tell you what he wants you to know, you often find that you have believed wrongly and based parts of your life on that lie. You then ask the Lord to take the lie away and freely give it to Him. Your belief system is changed and you are no long held captive.

Can Christians Drink A Beer
	I do not believe drinking a beer in itself is a sin. However we are not to do anything that may cause somebody else to stumble. We are also supposed to be an example of how Christ wants us to live. Drinking at all can become a very slippery slope. That said, I do enjoy a glass of wine now and then or a beer,but I have caught myself being tempted to drink more than I should.

Is Killing In A War Wrong
	Thou shalt not kill. Exodus 20:13 It is never ok to kill another being that God has placed on this Earth for a reason. Think about it

Is Satan The Ruler Of Hell

Ok Kay, where in the Bible does it say anything straight forward? Do God and Jesus not speak in parables? I believe that Cain is the ruler over Lucifer. The scriptures say that Cain shall rule over "him". In the story that I am speaking of, there are 4 people. God, Cain, Able, and Lucifer. Obviously he cant rule over God, Able is a mortal so cant e ruled over and Lucifer is the only one left. So therefore, Lucifer is neither the tormentor nor the tormented. He is the being under Cain.

Is Killing In A War Wrong
	Haha I know this is kinda late but I just found this blog page and wow. Back to the bottom of the page of blogs but alan of UK, I could not agree with you more. Those were good examples of "non existent attacks". Haha that makes me laugh how one could have such a limited mind as to say that all 20th century wars began by nonexistent attacks. I applaud you

Church Practices Paganism
	Nicole re Pope XII "His silence cost us millions of lives. One who does nothing to avoid the bloodshed is like a partner to the mass murder of human beings. He didn't do it, but he didn't stop it." Meir Lau, Israel's chief rabbi for Jews of European ancestry, Tel Aviv

Shame For Long Hair Men
	Long hair in that time means something completely different than it means today. Leviticus 19:27 says, "do not cut the hair at the sides of your head..." It is clearly a sin to cut your hair. What the bible is saying is that a man should not have his hair styled like a womens, he should let it grow naturally and maybe cut it in the back if it grows too long.
