    Are Altar Calls Biblical?

    I see why you don’t believe in the alter call because you don’t believe people have a choice anyways. God will save who he wants and condemn the rest and people have no choice. No free will. And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ Do you...

    Are Altar Calls Biblical?

    Except many who visit on Sunday will not be back on Monday. It implies only the Pastor is worthy or qualified to lead someone to the lord. Many churches have an alter call for the unsaved to come forward so someone can lead you through what the Bible says but it’s also a time for a Christian...

    USAID

    I think FEMA has a role, but it needs a complete overhaul. They waste money like it going out of style then they are broke when we need it. Fema bought 145,000 mobile homes and trailers after Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita in 2005 )about $2,800,000,000 worth) and most were never used...

    BATTLE STATIONS!!!!

    When I asked the question I knew pastors do both as part of their ministry and they are not in it for the money. I also know I insist on them taking alove gift regardless because ther time is valuable. I also suspected I would not be getting rich if that was my calling.

    Could a preacher make a living doing just weddings and funerals is he was very good? You would have to be in good with all the funeral homes and wedding chapels. You might even do some weekly nursing home chapel services in your community.

    Post Mortem - Why Did Clarks Summit University Close

    Hyles Anderson College does not appear t have christian, Bible or Baptist in their name. I would think not having Baptist in the name might be more apealing on a resume in the secular world. Not having scandal after scandal come up in a prespective emplorers google search might also be good.
