I just saw your posts about Tolle. There is a popular Youtube of Oprah expressing her views on Jesus that are not biblical. This is from a letter I wrote to our son who is studying Tolle’s books. I listened to Eckart Tolle with great interest. Many of his truths, you can just put the word 'God' in t...

Thank you for the opportunity to gather and express some thoughts on judgment and suffering which came to me while reading your thought-provoking posts. There are some things in the OT that seem unbelievable to me as well, but in regard to the Holocaust as a judgment of God on the Jews, as well as t...

The quote from Michael Pearl is exactly my thought. Excellent. I am so glad he put it down in writing, and I am so glad you posted it. Thank you!! When we were hippies we thought we were so righteous because we were ‘against war’ - whatever that meant, when by our morals and in our hearts we committ...

Hello Brody in Georgia, Some of your questions sparked me to respond, as well as Steve and Paidion's posts. 1. Concerning when a Christian becomes a Christian and what is essential to the faith: Flesh and blood did not reveal to Peter that Jesus was the Son of the Living God. During the course of th...

Yes, it seems that in a sense she is married to the man. Not to be 'loosey-goosey' about moral living, but in the child's eyes she is married; he is 'Daddy', and ten years is a lot of 'becoming one' in the Biblical sense. Churches I have been in are full of these kinds of problems. Sure helps to rem...

Dear Gregg and Eva – What is the woman asking for? Does she see her situation as messy? If he is in adultery, he may be on the way out the door anyway. If you convince her to merely get rid of him, the work will not be done in her heart. Are you concerned that she has her life in order before you ba...

TK - I went to Art's Prophetical School in the summers. Much deep repentence took place there. To prepare for the only 'speaking engagement' I ever had, I read the "Apostolic Foundations" chapters on true speaking over and over. He always invited others' input, and was always sharing a new author he...

George MacDonald's works are free on line. Of his non-fiction, I find "The Wise Woman" particularly good - I wish I had read it when my child was young! I found "The Anabaptist Vision" by Harold Bender to be priceless to my search for understanding of Christianity and of Church history. It is short ...

The future of all mankind is one of the biggest questions of our entire lives – it first came to me at a very young age. To not talk about it or discuss it would make for a wasted life. Let me share a scripture with you: [Jesus] asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? ...
