I have been to one Orthodox baptism and it was an infant. Fully submerged 3x in the name of the Father, Son, & Hy Spirit. It was quite a Holy experience for the baby who then was also anointed with oil and prayed over to receive the Holy Spirit (Chrismation). Due to the fact I have read early C...

Unless I misread the news coverage. The trans kid was ASSAULTED in the bathroom and subsequently died from their injuries later. So yes, the murderous act or killing happened in the bathroom even if the death didn't happen until later. Of course if it turns out that the death was unrelated to the a...

Here are a few verses that I think reminds us of just how well we are controlling our post language. I do need to be reminded of them because of the battle I have w...

About half of seeker disaster stories I know of - there is literally nothing they could have done to fix things (other than to ignore or go along with blatant open sin). This is part of the challenge. If less conservative groups let more things go a seeker can fit in easier but they look around wit...

That's also possible. I'm not sure I can tell from the text exactly what the biggest problem was with his offering. It may not have been the nature of the offering but rather the attitude in which he brought it. He seems to have been very quickly offended by the rejection. Gen 4:3  And it was so af...
