Thanks Paidion, I appreciate you taking the time to make your point clear and easy to follow. That is where I think I stand as well. For awhile now I tend to summarize a true relationship with God as being a "heart" issue and not a "head" issue. I know that's a pretty general statement but if I coul...

Hi Paidion, Thanks for the post. I do agree with you that there are many in Christian denominations who are just going through the motions (Rev 3:1, Mtt 15:8 ) just as much as someone who may attend a more Orthodox service. It just seems (to my limited knowledge) that if I had to pick between RC and...

Yeah, it's interesting because when you hear people mention someone like the Mormons the overwhelming reaction is of a false gospel and false Jesus (which I won't deny) and yet when the RC's come up we generally think more favorably; and yet I can't help but think that the situation Paul clearly pro...

Thanks TK for the reply. That too is how I generally was looking at the two passages. What do you think about the passage in 2 Cor 11:4 ? I guess were a lot of this is coming from is how do we react to those who don’t hold to non orthodox Christian views like J.W’s, Mormons, or even Catholics? Of co...

Wow! Hearts of Space, Brian Eno, Sigur Ros, where was I when this first posted :D I personally have enjoyed great times of prayer while listening to instrumental, ambient, low fi type music and even enjoy listening to the "Drone Zone" on SomaFM radio online in the background while listening to Steve...

Book List

Being a part of this forum and listening to Steve I have been blessed to pick up on some books that I have never heard of before (one that really stands out for me is “The Christians Secret of a Happy Life” By Hannah Whitall Smith). I was wondering if anyone would like to share either a few or a lis...

Paul's attitude toward "another gospel"?

In 2 Cor 11:4 and Gal 1:6-8 Paul shares some strong feelings regarding anyone who would try to preach another Gospel or Jesus either of the same sort or of a different sort, it would seem according to the Greek. But then I turn over to Phil 1:15-18 and although it appears Paul is faced with similar ...

Thanks everyone for your input, and thanks Steve for your last post that really help tie up some lose ends in my own mind. Paidion, that is a good question and an answer that I have found pretty satisfying was, I believe, something Steve mentions in his Exodus teachings (please correct me if I have ...

Thanks Steve so much for the reply and Scripture reference because that too is how I have been feeling (2Chr16, Is 30&31?). Just curious on how you might interpret Esther 4:14 in this context (how Esther sought a heathen king for help to execute God's will, similar to Joseph?)?
