I go to Church every Sunday morning. I have actually just come out of a bit of a attendance slump but now its all good!
I approach Church the same way the desciples did in Acts. We gather in houses to discuss the gospel and do studies. Then on Sunday we all go to "temple". My relationship with God is a personal one and He teaches me through His Word. At Church I get a chance to fellowship with my extended family that I dont get a chance to see during the week and am spoon-fed scripture from the pastor. There is nothing wrong with that at all. In fact its a wonderful thing but ultimately its a meeting place for believers.
I think its important that every believer goes for their own personal growth. The Bible even says that we should. I dont think however that we should go 7 days a week unless you are convicted to do so.
God bless!

Hi there sister!
At the moment I am on this serious diet cause Im getting married in a few months. I just cut out all snacks, no soda, half the sugar and only 3 meals a day (normal portions). The key of course is exercise. I go to the gym 3 times a week to tone up and shed as much as possible. Its hard work but nothing in life worth having comes easy.
Hope you get to where you want to be! Just set your sights on the prize and push forward!
GOD BLESS!!!

Hi everyone!
This is a subject that I feel very strongly about. Alot of modern Churches dont teach on the subject of spiritual warfare. My sisters boyfriend has been afraid to be alone for years and when he sleeps he wakes up screaming because of terrible nightmares. We know this is spiritual but he wont hear of it. He considers it offensive that we believe him to be opressed. We will be praying for him.
My mother and me are from "old stock" in the way we handle things of this nature. If we feel the home is being attacked we will walk around the house praying over the doors and windows. Spiritual warfare is something I know to the a reality because I have experienced it in my life.
A few years back i had a terrible dream. I wont get too into it because its long and irrelevant. I drempt that I was possessed and there was a presence in my dreams. I woke up screaming and had perspired so much that the bedding was soaked. It didnt take me long to realise that the presence that was in my dreams was standing at the right hand side of the bed. I panicked at first. My mom came into the room to see what was wrong and together we prayed. Similar things have happened to me and others I know. We have got to start taking charge of this situation. Pretending that evil doesnt exist is foolish and dangerous.
Im glad that this thread has been started up. We can learn alot from peoples experiences.
God bless and keep all of you!

Now as for WHERE ...it will depend on what you like. Some people are happy in large and busy cities others like quiet sleepy villages there are coastland areas , countryside with the nearest town 20 mins away ...it is all down to your own preferences so you will have to give us more to go on
Well I come from a suberb and cant think of anything worse than living in a b busy city. I do want one near by though cause I get bored easily.
So I guess what Im looking for is a quiet villege close (but not too close) to a bigger city. I will have to drive into the city to get to work. Are there such places?

Hehehehe........
Im probably going to be stirring up the hornets nest here but where would you say is the nicest place to stay and work? I now NOTHING about England except that its where my family comes from and you all enjoy tea
If you all can give me some ideas I would be most grateful.
P.S.
To all the Welsh guys and gals Im sorry but I dont think my Visa will even let me come to you. Sounds nice though!

Things like this should not be taken lightly. The enemy is dangerous and is out to destroy. Fortunately we are covered by the blood of Christ and will never die.
I know that when Christians talk about things like this they get all excited. I did. But its something that is evil and dangerousto those who arent ready for it. I witnessed an attack on a friend of mine. It was a particulary violent attack and the at first she (and we) thought it was a wild animal as we camping in the bush at the time. We found out very quickly that it wasnt an animal and her life was turned upside down cause the situation wasnt handled properly. She would see these creatures everywhere and she had a breakdown. Its no joke. Eventually with prayer and counseling she was delivered from this but it took its tole.
Brothers and sisters in Christ must remember that while we mustnt glorify these thing, we should always be prepared cause the devil roams like a lion. He is sly and will try and strip you of your faith in the blood of Christ.
God bless!

Well I have spent a good portion of my life learning martial arts. While I havent been training the last few years I believe that we should defend the body that God gave us. If anyone wants to kill my body I will not hate them or curse but I wont give up my life unless God specifically asks it. My body is a temple and it will be treated as such.

Still praying for that child on this side.
Almight loving God, I pray that your face would shine on the mother of the child. Show her that what she is thinking of doing is wrong and lead her onto the right path. Above all let Your will be done Lord.
Amen

Hey whats up? anyways I decided to quit smoking, I bought the patch, which is helping a little bit, but still really hard. Just thought I'm mention that. God bless everyone.
Hey man!
Good going! Its not an easy road but keep up with it. And dont make the mistake of having "one now and then". It doesnt work. Just stay the course and buy yourself a pencil to suck. Trust me, it works.
God bless you!

Have been thinking about this one for a while. It must have been a hard decision to agree to gay marrages. For so long they said no but the gays can be persuasive. With enough bad publicity they could drag even Disney through the dirt. That would mean no more for the kids so they probably decided to take the knock.
So I blame the gays, not Disney.

Allow me to set the stage....
The time is the new world order under one religion. The antichrist is killing all who do not pledge his alliance. You cannot buy, sell, or trade without his mark.
What would you do? Where would you go? How do you protect your family? How would you survive? Do you have a plan if this horrible event should ever occur?
Interesting. Well the church would probably have a safehouse set up. I would probably move my family and loved ones there and keep up there. Food would be hard to come by but considering the other problems we would be having I believe it would be bearable.
Guess we will have to wait and see.

I will begin with a question:
Is it POSSIBLE that there is no supernatural being? I'm not saying that is what you believe, I am asking if it is -possible- that you are incorrect?
I have felt Him, heard Him and experienced Him so no, no its impossible that there is no God.

I hear "Faith like potatoes" is really good.
I still havent seen this one! Is it really good?

We might be immagrating to the UK next year and everyone is telling me that it is a spiritually dark place. This is obviously a big worry to me as I will be leaving my current church and would like to move into a new one over there.
Is this the case or has the severety of the problem been blown out of porportion?
God bless

What do you think about him not stepping down as Pastor?
Well the man should shouldnt even have a choice. My mothers church is going through a similar problem except the pastor there had the nerve to RUN! He up and left telling only one member of the church!
What is the deal with these guys?!?!

Keep praying saints, God is listening.
My nephew talked her into waiting a few days so they could discus it further. She agreed. We have a few days still, before decision is made. Thank you
Just read this now! Incredible! I will keep praing that God softens this girls heart and lets the father keep his child. God be praised! Guess all we can do now is pray and wait.

Ok, not sure where to put this but here it goes.
My nephew got his girlfriend pregnant.
Yes, it was stupid, yes a sin, yes he knows it.
The problem is that the girl is 17 and her parents have talked her into having an abortion.
My nephew wants the baby and is very against the murder of the unborn. He told her that he would raise it if she didnt want it. His parents said they would adopt it too.
But this (insert appropriate name here) will not hear of it. She is determined to terminte this pregnancy no matter what.
And her parents are taking her and paying for it and encouraging it.
My sister spoke to an attorney and NOTHING can be done to stop her from murdering this baby.
My nephew has ZERO rights. He has to sit back and watch this (insert appropriate name here) kill his baby.
Woman rights woman rights blah blah...
What about the fathers rights? Or the babys rights?
This is disgusting and we cant do a darn thing about it.
Disgusting!
The only consolation is that the baby killers will pay for their sins. When all legal mumbo jumbo is removed and its just them and God THEN we will see them beg.
God, please bring justice to this world!

Yeah I gotta agree with you there. I believe there is already a thread like this though. After reading up a little i did some further research. Their "prophet" is a scary man. Believing himself to be Jesus and manipulating his congregation. The "growing in grace" church already has thousands of followers. Its actually a good reason to be concerned.
