Free Will & The Mechanics of Emotion part 2 please read

This guy is agnostic and I need to know what kind of answers I can give to him about this..

This has to be one of the hardest topics to discuss, mainly because it indirectly questions the legitimacy of a person's character; And calling someone illegitimate is, needless to say, rather offensive and disrespectful.

So allow me to give this topic a proper introduction before it goes up in flames. (sorry if this seems long, but I believe it's worth the… Continue

A lot for me to think about. . . you too?

Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus, whom the apostles called Barnabas, (which means Son of Encouragement), sold a field he owned and brought the money and put it at the apostles' feet. Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. With his wife's full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the apostles' feet. Then Peter said, "Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the… Continue

Needing to Confess (Addiction)

Brothers and Sisters...I am in the midst of struggle right now. I have finally admitted that I have an issue with addiction and am needing to move forward through it. Since my accident almost three years ago, I have been taking a single prescribed medication (Tramadol or Ultram, 50mg 2x day) for pain and depression. I have become dependent on it to get me moving in the morning, and to give me motivation to move through the day. I find that my doctor doesn't seem to know or care about what this… Continue

Pond or River

Acts 4:32-35 All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they shared everything they had. With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and much grace was upon them all. There were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned lands or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales and put it at the apostles' feet, and it was distributed to anyone as he had… Continue

BECOMING A RELEVANT CHURCH IN OUR GENERATION

BECOMING A RELEVANT CHURCH IN OUR GENERATION

For the Lord is the Spirit, and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image.

( 2Corinthians 3:17-18 NLT )

I see a change in the new generation that is coming up… Continue

SECOND CHANCES

A very long time ago, 27 years to be exact, a baby girl was born to parents too young and too immature to have children, but were in love, or so they thought.

A year and a half later, another baby girl was born.

The babies grew and while they were growing, there were many struggles for the parents who became very stressed but were too young and too immature to do anything about the stress except take it out on the baby girls.

Poor babies, they were treated with much anger and… Continue

Filled with the Spirit. . . again?

Acts 4:23-31

On their release, Peter and John went back to their own people and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them. When they heard this, they raised their voices together in prayer to God. "Sovereign Lord," they said, "you made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and everything in them. You spoke by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of your servant, our father David:

" 'Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth… Continue

Pursue a Better Future

God has prescribed plan for your life, an appointed purpose and destiny that He established from the beginning, which can be found in His word. God has provided a wealth of wisdom, knowledge, and direction in His word to assist us in arriving at our destination. When we don't subscribe to God's plan, we postpone our progress and set ourselves up for disappointment and discouragement. As a result, we go through life constantly searching for answers to question like, " What am i here for?" and… Continue

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO LOVE GOD AND TO LOVE OTHERS?

One of the scribes came and heard them arguing, and recognizing that He had answered them well, asked Him, “What commandment is the foremost of all?”

Jesus answered, “The foremost is, ‘HEAR, O ISRAEL! THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD; AND YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND, AND WITH ALL YOUR… Continue
