Thanks, as always , for a humble, thorough and objective review of Driscoll’s book on marriage. I thank God for your humble,shepherds heart my brother.Thanks for pointing us all to focus our hearts ultimately on the author of the greatest marriage book ever written-the book of books- the bible!

While sound bible-based books answering questions believers have about how to pursue a God-glorifying, spiritually healthy marriage are needed. I strongly encourage fellow brothers and sisters to embrace the ones you’ve listed instead of “Real Marriage” by Mark Driscoll (for all the reasons you and others have cited)

I hate finding caterpillars or any other creepy things in my salad!

Thanks Again,

The Apostles Creed is not referencing the Roman Catholic Church, but the church universal, spread around the world.

Hence, there is one baptism for salvation – not paedobaptism, or even believers’ baptism (which we affirm), but baptism at salvation into the death of Christ, gaining us entry into the body of Christ. Read Romans 6:3-11, Galatians 3:27-29, and 1 Cor 12:13. This is what brings forgiveness of sins, just as Peter said in Acts 2:38.

An infant baptized – not knowing Jesus – is cleansed of sins?!!

So Christ Jesus didn’t have to die on the cross for our sins to be fogiven?

Are you kidding me!!?

I am a believer in Christ Jesus as Lord, Savior, the Way, the Truth and the Life and I believe the contents of the KJV Bible contain the true Words of God. Yes, many verses of the Bible may be “viewed” or interpreted many different ways but ultimately, there is only one true understanding which originates in the heart – not mind – while reading the bible.

My humble understanding of the Bible concerning life-after-death is such:

- When a believer (Old and New Testament) dies and his/her soul goes to Heaven,
- When a non-believer (Old and New Testament) dies and his/her soul goes to Hell / Hades,
- At the very moment of the Tribulaton, the bodies of Old Testament Jew believers will rise from the grave first and be joined with their souls then,
- Directly following will be the bodies of Old and New Testament Gentile believers joined with their souls ,
- At the very moment of the Tribulaton, the bodies and souls of living New Testament believers will rise directly.
- After the seven years of the Tribulation and the 1000 years of peace, ALL those bodies and souls (including Satan himself) against God will be judged and tossed into the lake of fire for all eternity.

So much analysis is done on the Bible.

True believers should know their way.

For skeptics, non-believers, and those who claim to be believers but try to state God’s Word differently, and take a “cafeteria” approach to the Word, will sadly know the Truth at a time when is too late.

Even though almost everyone believes there is a life after death, and that “everybody” has their own interpretation of the after life, it amazes me that the most simple, true way to get to Heaven is 1) believe in Jesus as Lord and Savior, 2) “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind” and 3) “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

Why must people fight these simple truths?
