And whatever happened to 'rationfaith'? I see you mentioned 'Christian' - I remember people giving him a hard time and he was pretty calm and collected, as was rationalfaith.  Undecided

I have not touch'd the Savior's hand,

nor look'd upon His face;

But, I have felt his glorious power,

His great and loving Grace.



Those nail scars I have ne'er seen,

nor view'd His wounded side;

But, found in Him a hiding place,

this world cannot provide.



I have not seen the royal blood,

He shed upon Calvary;

But, I am cleans'd from sins dark stain,

He purchas'd this for me.



Those cruel stripes, I have not glimps'd,

laid upon His earthly frame;

But, peace and healing flood my soul,

As I whisper Jesus' name.



I wasn't there when He arose,

triumphant o'er the grave;

But, blessed Hope stirs within my breast,

and Faith, like banners wave.



I know not when He will return,

if morning, night or noon;

But, this prayer stays upon my lips,

Oh ~ Come, Lord Jesus, soon !



So then faith cometh by hearing

and hearing by the Word of God.

Romans 10:17

Isn't it ironic that if homosexuality can be connected to 'good' then it's considered proof that homosexuality IS good. If homosexuality can be connected to 'bad' then it's just the homosexual population being picked on?  Roll Eyes

Hoping to avoid stigmatization of the local gay community, the health department plans to avoid publicity until cases are reported in bisexuals or heterosexuals, thereby threatening the general population.

Thanks, I needed that laugh. I don't think that ADMIN will let me carry my 45 and pepper mace.  

Bummer!  Wink But I still think he made a good choice!  Grin

I think it means that I have much to pray about in trying to do a good job.

Always a good idea - LOL! But you are a good influence here so keep on keeping on!

The reason I'm happy is because those blue stars are SO much cooler than the pale yellow ones.

Yeah, how come we can't pick the color of our stars?  Tongue

Sorry I don't get your point here. Some guy named Larry Darby wants to make a run for Attorney General. As an atheist, what do you think his chances are? lol.

As a Christian, I hope his chances are slim to none.... No, check that; I hope his chances are none to none.  Tongue

'Some guy' is quoted in so many of the articles about Judge Moore that it caught my attention. The same said 'some guy' fails to mention on his 'vote for me' site that he is an atheist.

Many Darby family members had given names of George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson, clearly indicating their dedication to American values forged in history and our U.S. Constitution. Larry Darby holds to the same American values of great individual freedom with personal responsibility and limited government as did the early Patriots.
 Lips Sealed
But he is making quite a name for himself in the world of atheism and humanism.  Roll Eyes

Oh give it up. This was never about the Ten Commandments, it's been about Roy Moore all along. I mean what a great gimmick. He now has the name recognition to be elected governor of Alabama. That's what this was all about. Roy Moore is no defender of Christianity, he's just another cynical, venal, corrupt politician.

I agree that this was never about the Ten Commandments. I agree that it's probably a gimmick. But I believe you're aiming in the wrong direction.

FOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION
MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA – March 12, 2003

Larry Darby, Alabama State Director for American Atheists, today decried the erosion of religious liberty in Alabama, citing both the recent Christian proselytization by Gov. Riley and the Alabama House’s passage of an amendment that would allow the posting of the Theistic Ten Commandments in government school classrooms.
Quote
Riley recently admonished government leaders: “Our job is to remember we are servants of the people and the Lord, Jesus Christ. Riley, who has called for “prayer soldiers,” also claimed that the U.S. was founded on a rock, “and that rock was our lord and savior Jesus Christ.” Riley revealed his Theistic mission: “If we are going to save this country, if we are going to re-establish that belief in God, it’s up to us. If we don’t do it, who will?”

Darby said, “These statements were from the same governor who instituted ostensibly voluntary Bible study classes at the taxpayer-owned Capitol and indicated he didn’t want to politicize his Bible studies; Riley has not only politicized his Theistic views, he has proselytized for Jesus whenever and wherever he could.”

4705  Theology / Apologetics / Re:"Female Pastors" Is there any such thing? on: August 26, 2003, 05:12:55 PM
I am not sure how Proverbs 31 supports women not to be in ministry.....
My response was: "when would a woman have time to be a pastor?" followed by this:  Tongue which would indicate humor...

I am not sure also in regard to women working at home being easier has to do with anything either.
It was in response to the statement:"Women have an equally important job in the home.  It's just a shame so many women think it's "not for them" or "pointless" and a waste of their "abilities". And I said: "And the funniest thing to me is that working outside the home is MUCH easier!"
 
 Serving the Lord as called isnt about what is easier or harder, but obedience.
I agree. Which is why I find obedience to Scripture to be important.  Wink

 You also allude to the issue that there shouldnt be any "fuss" since women, in your opinion can share testimony and have influence....(sharing testimony would be in contradiction of 1Cor 14 by the way. If you are taking that as a mandate, then silence is silence).
Actually, "women should remain silent in the churches."
That does not preclude them from witnessing to friends, family, and other unsaved that they come into contact with. Hence, my comment "Though the Bible does preclude women from being pastors, it does NOT preclude them from sharing their testimony or being an influence."

The "fuss" is about being used as called by the Lord, and that people are not given mandate of authority simply because of gender. It is always a matter of character and of the heart.
No, it is a matter of following the Word of God!

But I do it find it odd that you want to try to pick apart those posts and yet ignored the two posts on Scripture. Hmmmmm......  Roll Eyes

Obviously women do have a role, it's just not as pastors.
4706  Theology / Apologetics / Re:"Female Pastors" Is there any such thing? on: August 25, 2003, 07:35:05 PM
Ok, after re-reading Proverbs 31 all I can think is - when would a woman have time to be a pastor?  Tongue

Epilogue: The Wife of Noble Character
10 [3] A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies.
11 Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
12 She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.
13 She selects wool and flax
and works with eager hands.
14 She is like the merchant ships,
bringing her food from afar.
15 She gets up while it is still dark;
she provides food for her family
and portions for her servant girls.
16 She considers a field and buys it;
out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17 She sets about her work vigorously;
her arms are strong for her tasks.
18 She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night.
19 In her hand she holds the distaff
and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20 She opens her arms to the poor
and extends her hands to the needy.
21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
22 She makes coverings for her bed;
she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is respected at the city gate,
where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them,
and supplies the merchants with sashes.
25 She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she can laugh at the days to come.
26 She speaks with wisdom,
and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27 She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
29 "Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all."
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
31 Give her the reward she has earned,
and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
