Re: Keys to Peace of Mind ?
Rejoice in the Lord always - I believe this is a practised decision that results in joy. And it can be had even in times of suffering. i.e. Paul and Silas in prison.

Re: Government!
If I understand your admonition here as our mission here is not working with worldly governments but rather promoting the Kingdom of God separate from what earthly kingdoms are doing, I agree. Our concerns and efforts are to be about eternal things that are not dependent on the temporary choices mad...

Re: War in Gaza
And yet, even when most nations cry out against this kind of evil ... sometimes we are the ones who cannot. Where is our outrage and compassion for these victims? Where is our voice? Our outrage? Why should we have outrage over any of this? Compassion yes. In practical application, there isn’t any ...

Re: The Anabaptist perception towards U.S. Holidays!
If a holiday is 'a day of festivity or recreation when no work is done', then some on this list are not holidays. That is my perception. :) Romans 14:4-5 - Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand. On...

Re: Baptismal Formula
What is amazing to me is how scriptures are used (more specifically the one I pointed to in John 19:30) when determining a 'mode'. It doesn't surprise me that scriptures are used but rather which scriptures are used and how . I can say the same about the scriptures used to support Calvinism and non...

Re: Bunny Trails
I think that was the one I drove across, years ago. But it wasn't as scary as the Jacksonville, FL, bridge, which has quite a rise in elevation, and the first time, it was very windy. You'd better believe I did some praying! :shock: Here are some I would avoid - https://www.google.com/search?q=scar...

Re: Baptismal Formula
It is truly amazing to me how scriptures are used to support all these varying practices for water baptism. Sudsy, why does this surprise you? Wouldn't it make sense that, IF there is indeed a right "mode" of water baptism, that it would be found/justified in the Scriptures, of all places...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse
This event is another example of how quickly life can come to an end for some and it could have been much worse at another time of day. We have a new bridge being built 30 miles from my home over the river between Windsor and Detroit. It is quite amazing to watch on the steady flow of Internet vide...
