I ran across this prayer exchange website and I haven't had the chance to ask my Church what their stance is on it.<br /><br />I think that there are some benefits to a site like this but some others might find it questionable.<br /><br />The website is <a href="http://www.prayermarket.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.prayermarket.com/</a>. <br />I am curious what you (or other Christians) think about it and know that I and maybe your readers would be interested in hearing your opinion.<br /><br />I'll check back here in the next day or two, thanks & God bless<br />Sandra JohnsonSandraJohnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04372158647887549073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118876563078743117.post-86085192306558097682010-11-29T19:01:39.027-08:002010-11-29T19:01:39.027-08:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.NRIGirlhttp://www.coffee-with-jesus.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118876563078743117.post-18618054666294160192010-05-13T21:15:14.099-07:002010-05-13T21:15:14.099-07:00Lawrence.

So many Christians are happy to sit by and let others feed them the Word of God and by doing so, they miss out on so much blessing. There is no better excitement in the world than when the Holy Spirit reveals some little gem in His Word. Studying also increases our prayer life because to study God's Word entails dependance upon the Holy Spirit to interpret it. I liken Prayer and the Word of God to being 'God's sheepdog's' to keep us going in the right direction, out of danger and bring us into a closer relationship with Him. <br /><br />Fab post.W McCallumhttp://www.instepwiththelord.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118876563078743117.post-64307532425993786282009-04-10T08:46:00.000-07:002009-04-10T08:46:00.000-07:00Excellent post.Excellent post.W McCallumhttp://www.instepwiththelord.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118876563078743117.post-41098343551987450402009-03-21T18:53:00.000-07:002009-03-21T18:53:00.000-07:00I'll be interested to read whatever you learn and ...I'll be interested to read whatever you learn and study on this subject. I recall growing up thinking "baptist is the best," because I was raised in a Baptist Church. I actually do attend a Baptist Church now, but for years I was a member of a non-denominational church. I liked not having a label attached to my faith. Even now when someone asks me what religion I am, I cringe, because I do not want to be defined by a label, but by my faith. Unfortunately, sometimes labels are a necessary evil. For example, I am an American. I am a Pittsburgher, I am a Christian...wait, aren't we ALL Christians? Well, depends on who you ask, and how you define the term. It used to be (and often still is) that denominations were defined by doctrinal beliefs. Yes, we as believers around the world are the body of Christ--the CHURCH. The question is, WHO are the true members of the Church? There are both true and false followers of Christ in every denomination. To what extent do reach across the denominational barriers?<BR/><BR/>Case in point: Bob Jones University (where I went to school) has been at odds with Billy Graham's ministry ever since Graham began to ally himself with other faiths, receiving interfaith support and allowing those of other faiths on his executive committee. The university's stance was that if these members of the committee rejected major tenets of Christian doctrine (i.e. virgin birth, deity of Christ), Graham was blatantly disregarding 2 John 9-11 which speaks of those who do not abide in the doctrine of Christ, and how believers should not be joined with them. They went so far as to insist that students not attend the crusade when it came to Greenville, SC in 1966. Rather harsh and counterproductive, to say the least, but I can understand where BJU was coming from.<BR/><BR/>When does reaching across denominational boundaries become ecumenism? I have Catholic friends, but do not believe in many of the Catholic doctrines. I can't believe that the Lord would want me to part company with these people who love the Lord and have strong faith. So how do we balance our desire to honor the Lord with our desire to fellowship with other denominations of the Christian persuasion, even if we don't agree on certain doctrines that are crucial to salvation?Kim Ahrenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07694445986353588076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118876563078743117.post-63400140389809668852009-03-12T13:24:00.000-07:002009-03-12T13:24:00.000-07:00Brilliant post.Brilliant post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118876563078743117.post-31557693770163565292009-02-24T01:25:00.000-08:002009-02-24T01:25:00.000-08:00I read on another favourite blog the other day tha...I read on another favourite blog the other day that the present Heavens and earth will at some point pass away and a new Heaven and earth will be formed. WOW. To be reminded of this was certainly an encouragement. However, the Heavens are amazing as you say but these moments of awe are still NOTHING in comparison to worshiping God in the beauty of holiness...<BR/><BR/>A surrendered heart is a blessed heart and there is no other way to fulfilment and real joy as you so rightly imply.

In regards to Jer. 7:31, was fire the only way to offer ones children to false gods? Why did Jehovah God choose that example? The concept of eternal torment is not new to Christendom.
