Magic Happens?
Children are natural audiences for magic because they are discovering the world and they do indeed want to work out cause and effect. At a magic show expectations are upended and we are left wondering how what know happens in the physical world was trumped. Children are thrilled by this and some want to work out how it happened and others ...

Tithing response
I would like to say tithing is an absolute must. I came from the mindset God would understand. I was not going to tithe under no circumstance to any church which may abuse my money gift. Then I began to study a bit and began to grow in my relationship with the Lord. What God Showed me was amazing. God states to test him in the matter of ...

Re: Tithing
Tithing is the biggest lie that has been perpetuated in modern churches today. Tithing while being a biblical concept, is NOT required of the New Testament Church.

Church Shopping
Just like Paul Says in Timothy that people will be looking for someone to tickle their ears. With all that's going on, how can people be so blind, so much in denial? Is it fear of drastic change? or Maybe they will have to give up their petty little life in exchange for a glorious one? The Bible says also that people will be turning away from God ...

2 books of the New Testament were written by a doctor.
As a Christian I find it strange other believers ignore this glaring fact. 2 books of the New Testament were written by a doctor. His name was Luke and he wrote both the Gospel of Luke & the book of Acts. He was never condemned for being of a ''faithless'' profession, neither did he change his profession. Also, there are numerous examples ...

Hitchens lets his passion undermine his point
These rants from Hitchens have entertainment value, I suppose, but as with all of today's opinion-driven media they must be taken with a grain of salt. A lot could be written, but I'll just focus on one point here: Hitchens is mistaken to think that a failure to conflate Mormonism with Christianity indicates bigotry. The teachings of Mormonism ...

Re: Sad the least you can say.
Irrelevant: Brainwash:Nothing is eternal; I guess she’s queuing and is, open-mouthed, admiring a huge barbecue where, unaware, she’d be barbecued herself. So, just to be clear, are you saying that you believe she will have been sent to hell? Otherwise, she would be screwed by queuing terrorists who would certainly be waiting for their ...
