Help with a question on Jesus overturning the tables and Galatians 6:1

February 26th, 2016
Jason Finch February 26 at 11:22am · Chatsworth, CA, United States Any thoughts on this question would be great. When Jesus turned over tables and rebuked the people in His Fathers house for selling sacrifices there, was what He did contrary to this verse in Galatians 6:1? Galatians 6:1... See More Galatians 6:1, English Standard Version (ESV) Brothers, if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. . . .

February 26th, 2016
Heath Tibbetts February 25 at 2:57pm Since I figure MOST of you go to church, I'm looking for any creative ideas you have seen or used in your churches for observing Lord's Supper? I'm planning some variety in hopes of rekindling the significance of this observance in our church. Thanks! Comments Brian Marcum Perhaps a liturgical approach to corporate confession if you're Church hasn't done that before. Or perhaps intinction... or both. Like · Reply . . .

On pastoral burnout

February 26th, 2016
Robert Pristoop February 26, 2016 Pastor Burnout? Did you know that 1500 pastors a MONTH leave their congregations because of burnout? Interesting article below for Pastors. Written by Church Planter. Speaker. Author. CEO. Raul Rivera. Pastor Dave sat at his desk wondering what he would eat for dinner once the clock finally struck 5. Unfortunately, his “spaghetti daydream” was interrupted by an abrupt “ring, ring!” from his cell phone. “Dave speaking,” he announced. “Hi Pastor? . . .

Discussion on Christian hip-hop

February 26th, 2016
Jason Finch February 25, 2016 · Castaic, CA, United States No matter the popularity of this hip hop artist, what he is peddling is a false doctrine. Denying the Trinity is denying God Himself. We need to be careful of those we listen to, and allow to influence our lives, especially on theological matters. Jesus said this, John 8:24 ESV "I told you that you would die in your sins, for unless you believe that I AM HE you will die in your sins." I AM HE = a direct claim to deity, and a title that . . .

Tim White February 19 at 10:05am Not to be divisive, but may I write a rebuttal article for Prayer and Fasting? You know, in my spare time (hahaha).

Resource for Science Questions

February 11th, 2016
Steve Ray Webb 16 hrs In my opinion, all Christians interested in the interaction between science and the Bible should be aware of the Disovery Institute located in Seattle. It is a Christian think tank dedicated to countering the humanistic values in our society. Among its senior scientists are people like William Dempski and Michael Behe, who have been instrumental in leading the fight against humanistic evolution with their paradigm shifting books introducing the powerful arguments of irreducile complexity. . . .

Discussion on meaning and beauty in life

February 11th, 2016
Daniel Butt feeling thoughtful. February 10 at 9:13pm · Swift Current, SK, Canada We live in a Post-Christian, secular age that has cheapened, dehumanized and commodified human life. My question, that has been heavy on my heart, is this: What can we do as individuals (working within the context of society) to make life as beautiful (and meaningful) as possible in the context of those who are suffering and dying, so that suicide and euthanasia are rejected by those who are most likely . . .
