Chick-fil-A and Marriage

Don’t team up with those who are unbelievers. How can righteousness be a partner with wickedness? How can light live with darkness? 15 What harmony can there be between Christ and the devil? How can a believer be a partner with an unbeliever? 16 And what union can there be between God’s temple and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. 2 Cor 6:14-16

Intimacy – Part 4 (willful sin)

Is physical intimacy outside of marriage a sin?
I believe it is; it’s called fornication.
When at least one is married it becomes adultery and it is still sin.
Telling a lie, blasphemy, lust, drunkenness, and many other common every day acts are also sin.
So can someone, which calls themselves a Christian, willfully sin over and over and receive forgiveness? Continue reading →

In that time I’ve had 2 different jobs in that time; the phone company for 15 years and my current one at the radio station for the past 17 years. Continue reading →
