The article is a long one, and I take exception with almost everything about it. I am on the road right now, and will attempt to give a lengthy response when I am back home.

Your concerns are shared by many, and they point out the challenges accompanying the dual phenomena of very large churches and the lack of community in American (and church) culture. Your perceptions about the early church are also correct. The church is a family, not a theater. What is the solution...

We need to avoid the danger of confusing responsibility for unhappiness in a marriage with responsibility for a divorce, since unhappiness is never, in itself, a legitimate reason to break your promises. If we ask who is responsible for an unhappy marriage, we may be able to divide the guilt between...

Hi TK— Granted that some of us here (including myself) do not know exactly what we mean when we speak of "hell," we can agree that, whatever it may be, it is the opposite of "salvation" (whatever that may entail). Salvation, by any Christian's definition is for those for whom Christ has become "Lord...

I knew a family with eight children, where the mother had a strange autoimmune condition that made her allergic to almost everything—every kind of detergent, the foam rubber in couch cushions, carpeting, wall paint—everything! Their house was a pretty stark sight. The mother had incessant migraines ...

The responsibility for communicating God's truth is laid on the shoulders of His Church. Churches that fail to uphold God's standards with reference to marriage and divorce are not only contributing to the damnation that violators will face on the day of judgment, but are also multiplying victims in...

I don't think many conclusions can be drawn fro the use of the word "headlong." As near as I can tell, it is not the same idea as "head-first" (that is, the head being down). It seems to mean a position with the head forward. A man falling headlong can simply mean with his head forward of his body. ...

Has the forum been fixed?

Today I received an email from a brother who had previously been shut out by our forum disaster several months ago. He said he was able to log-in today, and he wondered if this forum had been fixed. I told him that I don't know, but if some of our other old users would be able to sign in, it just mi...
