We know that only the Church is the Bride of Christ.

Prayer theory and technique! Why I guess I did have enough faith I just didn't know the proper theory to get that fancy car and house and millions of dollars of blessings.

Will God really not answer the prays of his children if they don't know proper theory? Certainly many of us need to work on our prayer life - and I agree that we can learn from our elders. But I think they are taking this a bit too far here.

I think he doesn't understand what the word 'Luck' means :-)

This is a big problem, and will likely open the door to an appeal. They'll say it's not fair or just to have two "classes" of people - and since the court ruled some are ok, when them more must be better.

While the above reasons are true - the foundation of Marriage is in God. It was his will that man and woman be united as one - much like the picture of Christ uniting with his bride the Church. This illustration is vulgar to the anti-religious pro-homosexual groups.

So as Robert suggested, let's keep THIS discussion free of those "flames".

Any school contingent on increasing enrollment to fund projects via tuition will be hitting very hard times - these same schools have to treat students like paying customers instead of people who are coming to learn. Almost all of these schools are also tied to federal funds - meaning that if the government decides to cut costs that they could be hurt even worse.

Now if you were to ask, are there Christians in those churches, yes there are. And some are working to reform those churches, but too many sit silently - and appear to approve the false beliefs.

I do believe the OT is relevant and that all of the Bible shows the gospel.

I was thinking, so much for loving your fellow Christian Brothers - but I fear too many in the PCUSA Leadership are not true bretheren.

According to the article it appears that about 1/8 of the membership does not vaccinate - not really that huge of a number ultimately. I still don't understand the theological reasoning people use - if people have genuine health concern, I can understand and accept - but claiming the Bible speaks against vaccines is ridiculous.

The author of the article just doesn't understand - but those who don't know Christ really cannot.

St. Joseph Smith, St. Rutherford, St. L. Ron Hubbard.

In his desire for a larger hard working labor force he "imported" many from the Muslim middle east - even going so far as to have mosques built. You can even hear the call to prayer five (I think) times a day in many areas.

Some students are great once they get here, others need more help academically and socially. I have seen home schoolers with some of the worst penmanship!
