    On Genesis and Exodus

    Hi everyone. I'm a new member and I don't know if this is the right place to post about this. I've just started reading the Bible and finished Genesis and Exodus.

    Why would somebody willingly become a Satanist?

    Satan tempted Jesus to eat rocks. That is what a 3-year old tries to do to their parents. Like what kind of mindset do Satanists have? I just don't see it. Why do Satanists believe that Satan is better in their view to God? Why do many, but not all, Satanists get absurd amounts of tattoos and...

    The Search For Truth

    It's said that science attempts to discover truths about the material world. Yes, they have discovered some truths. Oftentimes though - not getting into where certain assumptions must be used - science has failed to provide accurate answers about our world. For example, scientists were...

    Religious Authority and Authority in General

    Howdy! Recently I have been going through the David Graeber book called debt. It’s pretty neat and helped me put into words a few things that I believed but had not exactly articulated. It’s interesting to note for instance how debt and authority sort of comingle. What I realized is I simply...

    Was Muhammad A Prophet? Some Questions and Concerns

    Accepting Jesus Christ as Lord, Syncretism and relationship

    Howdy ho! At this point I may as well call myself Syncretism cat. Recently I was meditating and praying as is my usual activity. Sometimes I mix up which form of God I focus on though usually it is Kali, Shiva, Waheguru etc. This time I decided to use Christ as the center focus and use the...

    The Best Guide

    What is the best guide? Some say your heart. Others say your opinions, thoughts... Some say, definitely not a book. The latter is shocking to me, because we use books everyday, which are written by people over centuries. Some of these books are science textbooks, cookbooks, health and medical...

    Truths in Scripture

    The truth about the dead is still questioned, speculated, and debated. I'm curious as to why, and where persons would rather go to get the answer to this question, rather than the Bible. Jesus said he came to teach the truth. (John 8:31-32) . . .“If you remain in my word, you are really my...

    Is Bible alive? Bible talks to you?

    Bob: "The dogma of Christianity says that God has nothing to do with Death. Hence, I am making the direct logical conclusion, that God has not created satan (angel of death)" 1213: "That dogma doesn't seem to come from the Bible." Bob: "It is dogma of Eastern Orthodox Christianity; it is the...

    Grace Alone?

    I've been told many times that the Bible teaches salvation by Grace alone. I found the following related to saved and kingdom of heaven. Baptism Acts 11:14 and 10:48 mark 16:16 1 Peter 3:21 Belief mark 16:16, Luke 8:12, acts 16:31, heb 10:39 Believe and confess Rom 10:9 Call on the Lord...

    My Views on Scripture

    Howdy! Recently I have been thinking about scripture an awful lot as I have been going through various Hindu, Buddhist, and Sikh scriptures. I thought it might be interesting to discuss the view I have come to embrace and see if you guys had any interesting thoughts or responses. I think that...

    King Solomon wrote, "Every thing has its time and place under heaven." Isn't it time for common sense?

    Animations of Biblically Accurate Angels

    This video popped randomly into my Youtube feed and I thought some of you people here on RF would be interested in the subject. The thread title says it all, really; the video sadly isn't that long, but I find the images and animations really fascinating nevertheless.

    A ground-zero position when talking about the Bible

    "There is no such thing as the pure, obvious message of the Bible alone." Would anyone in this forum seriously claim that this is false?

    Luke 18:8

    "However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?" Is it logical from Luke 18:8 to conclude, that Near the Judgement Day there will be almost none Christians on Earth? Can it be other way around? Some ways around: 1) very many Christians. 2) many Christians. 3) few...
