Re: What if a Person Obeys Jesus but Doesnt Know Jesus?

That was one of my favorite moments in the Narnia series!

Re: What if a Person Obeys Jesus but Doesnt Know Jesus?

TK, I once read a book written by a man who lived for two years among a tribe of Pigmies in a remote section of Africa. I wish I could remember the name of the book or the author, because it's a book I would like to own. The Pigmies were but barely exposed to western civilization, and as I recall, t...

Re: Scriptural Support for Devotion to Mary?

I want to reword my response to say, I don't pray to Mary, have devotions to her, or celebrate special feast days in her honor, but I hold Mary in very high regard. Especially when I consider the stigma she knew she would be taking on when she agreed to the Lord's plan for her. That was big deal, an...

Scriptural Support for Devotion to Mary?

I wonder if I could ask for help from others more theologically adept than I am? I am having a friendly discussion with a Catholic brother who is also on this forum. He sent me a link to a video, in commemoration of the Feast of the Incarnation/Annunciation. He says the video is fairly long - 11 min...

Re: caller on Matthew 24/double fulfillment of prophecy

Could it be that He answered their question according to what they meant and spoke of the far-distant future? I've been wondering if His prophesy might have both a fairly immediate fulfillment and another, more complete fulfillment later.

Re: Church Search

Hi Selah, I puposely gave this thread a generic name, thinking it might be helpful to share our church and other fellowship searches under a single heading. Your intentional-community-search fits well. I'm glad you're here; I hope someone responds with helpful information. Great to hear from you! Joan

Re: Church Search

I know some charismatic Calvinists (online only, though) who don't emphasize Calvinism at all. One guy, a young 30s-ish pastor, has written me saying, "I'm done with controversies about Calvinism and Arminianism! The Kingdom of God is all that truly matters!" I wrote back, "Amen!" I totally enjoy a...

Re: Church Search

I saw that they are officially Calvanistic but didn't detect a hard-line view in their other information about themselves. Regarding Calvanism, the pastor of my 'main church' is strongly Calvanistic. I've looked for other fellowships but haven't found anything that compares. I find my heart is with ...
