Do I reject the theory of gravity because Christ ascended? What kind of question is that? Gravity is testable, observable, and can be proven. Evolution is not. The "evidence" is merely an interpretation placed on something to make it fit with evolut…

[quote author=mabsoota link=topic=8419.msg106987#msg106987 date=1256061028] i don't really understand it either, but it seems that God is purifying his church, causing the churches leaders to properly discuss and learn true doctrine and bringing peo…

[quote author=QT_PA_2T link=topic=8419.msg106979#msg106979 date=1256045904] The Church is the bride of Christ? Right? And there are many Churches. They all claim to be the true bride of Christ. If we are all divided, then surely that means that C…

Epchois im sorry but your gravely mistaken. For some reason you and other uninformed people continue to interpret what I and others are saying as "judging". We are not judging these people, we are not saying they are going to hell and we arent. Did …

my opinion on Obama is this: if you look at how he came to power, how the people responded and blindly followed a man they knew nothing about, you can see the type of antichrist, a forerunner if you will. he has gotten millions to adore him and love…

[quote author=aidan link=topic=8257.msg105352#msg105352 date=1250162691] When you are surrounded by people you are related to or friendly with, whom you love but who are not Christians in any sense that the Church would recognise, you have a problem…
