No one here is for sending anyone's son to die in a senseless war! I can appreciate the concern you have for your own son. Fact of the matter is that once you "Raise your right hand," you belong to Uncle Sam and Uncle Sam can do for you as he pleases! Anyone who enlists in the military must be...

I don't know about "adult" baptism but we would certainly want their baptism to follow a legitimate profession of faith. The subject of baptism can get convoluted and if one was a Presbyterian, I would be curious to know whether they would accept Roman Catholic Baptism as being legitimate...

I believe dialogue is quite helpful and Christians in the USA really need to look at things aside from US Politics so I would welcome this.

Not sure of what you mean by "Carriers." Iran has ZERO Aircraft carriers if this is what you are speaking of. I seriously doubt they have anything much more substantial than a "Corvette" and likely not even this! When I was over there in 1986, I believe they had two or three ships that you could...

I think we ought to and if President Trump were to send troops over there, I would support him 100%! SHAME ON THE UN FOR DOING NOTHING!

I agree that there is some really bad theology out there and I have heard my own Senator (Ted Cruz) butcher Gen 12:1-3 in order to justify unconditional support for Israel no matter what! I am not for unconditional support of Israel but I am for support of anyone who is fighting terrorism who...

I absolutely do and I believe I have stated so! They are not the blood-thirsty terrorists set on the destruction of Israel. They are caught in the middle and are often forgotten in the conflict. They are likely victims of Hamas just as are the Israelis. We should absolutely pray for and show...

For me, it is. When I was in the Philippines, I was hearing about how the Iranians were going out, burning hijabs, and other acts of defiance and protest against the Khameni regime. At the time, I was hopeful that perhaps this would be their "Wall coming down" event and that perhaps there may...

I agree that we do not need to foist "American Democracy" down their throats. Hopefully we have learned this lesson. Based upon President Trump's speech, he is going to "let them chart their own destiny. Hopefully this can happen without a single "Americian Boot" on Iranian soil. The wild cards...

I can 100% appreciate your sentiments here! I was optimistic about Iraq and Afghanistan as well but the fact of the matter is that in both these cases, we were "liberating" people who did not want to be liberated and we never fully neutralized the enemy and FULLY CONQUERED the land! We needed to...

As soon as Iran obtains a nuclear weapon, they would be testing it on Israel. This is a cold hard fact. If Iran obtains nukes, there WILL BE a nuclear war in the future. You can count on it. President Trump is doing good. I do not like the idea of "Regime Change" wars for the sake of regime...

How many Christians has the Iranian regime slaughtered the past month or so that the news press refuses to cover?

It used to be that wearing a beard (or any sort of facial hair) was highly frowned upon. Not so much for those who were in "laity" but definitely for the clergy. I had a moustache and sideburns in the 80s but when I noticed that none of my favorite "Preechers" had any facial hair, I shaved mine...

And that we did. We were also in a culture where we got them "dunked" as soon as we could. I call this practice into question. Perhaps you are a "Paedobaptist" who would baptize their baby whether they wanted to or not? Not going to debate this but simply point out that such brings about its...

Maybe he is a "Hard-Shell Baptist" who doesn't believe in "Paid Clergy?" Looking at the Hard-Shell (Primitive) Baptists, they definitely get what they pay for!:oops:

I bet he smiled at the camera and said "Look Mama! I'm a REAL Hockey player now!"🤣

I agree in theory with the so-called "age of accountability" in so as one is consciously aware of the "things which are clearly seen" along with Rom 5:13 and 7:9. What I would adamantly disagree with is setting a definitive "age" at which such takes place. This is different one from another. I...

Good catch! Eph 4:5 says "one Lord, one faith, ONE BAPTISM (for emphasis, not shouting) and some use this as criticism towards Baptists who will often "Re-Baptize" those who were baptized as babies or whatever. We can get into semantics over what makes a baptism valid but I believe the "One...

This was pretty much Martin Luther's thinking as well even though he believed you could actually fall from grace.
