No matter what anyone says, a persons theology does matter.I can not vote for Mitt Romney, his religion is sending people to hell. To votee for someone who believs. That Satan and my Lord Jesus are brother is hertical. Now that doesn't say that iLm going to vote for Pres Obama either. Before when vote we ought be asking God to give us a true Christian for president.

Believing those things is heretical; voting for someone who does is not.

The way I see it, we have Obama, whose religious and practical affinities are clear and have been discussed by many a member here.

Then we have Romney, who, while also heretical in his views, is more conservative and altogether closer leaning than Obama, particularly on the two hot-button issues of our day: abortion and gay marriage.

Finally, we have Ron Paul, who has all but withdrawn from the race.

'the view of religion which takes you to the theater is so far off from mine that I cannot commune with you therein.'

It must be a strange school for virtue which attracts the harlot and the debauchee. It is no place for a Christian if it is best appreciated by the irreligious and worldly.

""What happened up in Aurora ... was the product of pure evil. It was the result of a depraved individual taking his free will to the extreme," said Jim Daly, president of Focus on the Family, in a statement Friday."
In Calvinism, Total Depravity is often defined that every cell in one's body is tainted with sin. But this is not to imply that a sinner could be Utterly Depraved -- or is 'pure evil.'
Therefore, how can a Calvinist describe himself, and everyone else, as 'Totally Depraved' while labeling Mr. Holms as merely 'depraved' -- making him, at least on paper, seemingly more holy than 99.9999% us?
Something just doesn't add up.

Those in hollywood worship satan and with the name dark knight rises, we all, i hope know who that is refering to and its not the charactor in the movie its all about symbolism with them!

But regarding the movie, I don't see anything wrong with it for an adult to watch. It is actually a good showing of how the secular world thinks concerning good and evil, pragmatism and honor.

The glitch is this:
Luther said the church is belly up if you add to sola fide.
But the SBC has added sola ora (lit. prayer alone).
Either Luther is right and the SBC is adding a damnable work to faith or his sola fide was a tempest in a teapot all along and the SBC, the largest Protestant denomination, has finally come full circle -- back to a Roman Catholic soteriology.

Because the article itself says this:
"The 'sinner's prayer' is not an incantation that results in salvation merely by its recitation and should never be manipulatively employed or utilized apart from a clear articulation of the Gospel."

Daniel B wrote:
Sinners prayer is not found in the Bible but I guess that doesn't matter now days with tongue speakers and women preachers.

And the sinner's prayer is very useful, if the person has a clear understanding that the words mean nothing regarding their salvation, and serve only to act as a temporal statement of how they intend to live from that point on. Used this way, the sinner's prayer is very helpful.

When an online "church" resorts to using "naked ladies" as its search criteria as this one does, chances are, their "100,000 viewers" are but momentary.
This "pastor" needs to get honest with himself, his god and his statistics.
