The Petra Zone

This is an old thread. :mrgreen: My main point was that although sin does need to be seen for what it is and dealt with, you need to look at the big picture and understand why sin is a problem. The reason sin is a problem is because it's disobedience to God, and disobedience is disobedience no matte...

PDC is a band from back in the day.

It can be tricky when you can't see or hear the person who is posting. I've been posting here a long time. Brent does post what he thinks, but it's not meant personally. You're young. Give yourself time to check things out and find out what areas you'd be interested in going to be a missionary. As I...

I understand what you're saying, I didn't mean to imply you weren't making yourself clear or that I was correcting you. I agree that you are supposed to walk out your relationship with God as you experience life, and that some people may have more of an idea of what they should be doing than others....

Of course, I am someone who liked David Cassidy and the Monkees way back when she was a kid, so maybe I can relate to the juvenile stuff. :lol: Did I ju...

Okay, I don't usually get involved in political discussions. I will say the underlying issue isn't "liberal" vs "conservative" or the name of the political party. There has been a lot of nonsense from both parties. The problem is our government isn't focused on God or the good of the country, and ag...

Loved this.

Happy 2019 all.

I was sorry to hear about this, I enjoyed his music.

I'm sorry about that.

I'm sorry about that.

Interesting post. I agree with the idea that we should be discerning about what we listen to and watch. However, it's not the music itself that is the problem. It is the lyrics and the attitude behind them. I agree with Brent that labeling something Christian doesn't necessarily make it Christian. T...
