Great question quest. I firstly will clarify my position in studying the bible. I am a sociologist and therefore do not view the bible literally. I read the bible in the context in which it was written: for example who wrote the book, who the book was intended for and what was the social context at ...

Dear Guest, I am sorry for your experience. It very dangerous when scripture is taken out of context and weaponised. I had a similar experience from the "Jesus bring a sword passage" Matthew 10:34-36. I don't have much to offer other than the hand of friendship. I created this email if you...

Do we know if the administrator is still active? I know of a couple of requests. I can vouch for them if needed

Dear friends, I wanted to share the sermon from our church service today. I know there are a lot of broken people both out of CF and those stuck inside. For those seeking God may this be an encouragement to you. https://youtu.be/QYtWSQuSgbU?si=yPfa8fSmtgI-aHuR Below are the bible readings that proce...

Thank you Faith Hopegood. Its a beautiful story. I am glad you and your Husband were able to get out and rebuild your lives. Blessings

While this troubled me at first after 3 months I saw it for what it was. A lie from the mouth of liars and false Prophets. This is a question...

Thanks Stargazer. that is a real shame people actively go out of their way to avoid you. it a very childish and cowardly act. Made me have a little chuckle to myself Rev 21:8 "But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the id...
