Re: I think it is funny
I live my life with no regrets. It is one of the benefits of not being able to remember things.

Preparation for Baptism
In Anabaptist World, what kind of methods are used to prepare individuals for baptism? E.g. some Hutterian communities have 2 months of classes and use a written catechism that the individuals study and memorise.
Is that the method used in your fellowship? Or is there another method?

Re: Discipline vs. Motivation in your Christian walk?
No direction or agenda, just please behave yourselves. Where is the fun in that? :lol: On a more serious note, my first rambling thought is: motivation often involves another person mentoring and helping the individual as a role model. Discipline comes from within the individual himself. One can be...

Re: Questions about Communion / Lord's Supper
You could have included the link to that, you know. https://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/__P7N.HTM But my question was a historical one concerning when the universal requirement was instituted. The catechism does not appear to address that. Elementary, my dear Watson. Follow the footnotes. Happy ...

Re: Article: Why Russian separatists called an exorcist when they discovered a Ukrainian POW was an evangelical Christia
A Ukrainian soldier said he was tortured by Russian separatists and forced to undergo an exorcism, partly because of his evangelical Christian faith. Viktor Cherniiavskyi is now a first-person view (FPV) drone pilot, but he said he was a chaplain to evangelical Christians in the Ukrainian army in 2...

This forum, as other forums, takes a certain personality to stick with it. It is not for everyone. The constant banter is annoying at times. This happe...
