When we are saved by placing our faith in Jesus, which includes a commitment to follow Jesus as well as confessing sins, we are filled with the Holy Spirit and our life is changed. The Holy Spirits presence is God within us.

There have been rumors and speculation about Burt Lancaster's sexuality, but he never publicly identified as being gay. Lancaster was married three times and had five children, and his personal life remains private.

I know that we are not allowed to preach here. This isn't preaching it's just answering a question that was asked. According to my beliefs and the Christian bible, the effects of Jesus Christs suffering and death were great. Physically the torture and crucification that He went through was unlike any that I could imagine. He suffered and died not because He did anything wrong, or because others forced Him to do it. He suffered and died because He loved us so much. It was His choice to take our punishment for us. Jesus did not have to go through what He did but He did it for us, you and me. I cannot understand how someone could have that much love for me but He did. He knew that by following the old laws we could not get to heaven on our own. Someone had to take our place as punishment for our sins. We all sin and we all have sinned. The effect of Christ's suffering and death is that who ever believes that He died for us, that He took the punishment for us and that if we accept Him as our savior, because that's what He did, He saved us, we would live with Him in heaven eternally. The cool part is that after 3 days He rose from the dead. That proves to me that I will live in heaven after this old body dies. The effect is that we don't need to go to hell for our sins. Jesus made a way for us. No sales, no gimmicks, no silly rituals, just believe and turn your life over to him. If you feel that I'm preaching, I'm sorry that you feel that way. You asked so I'm answering. The effect that impacts me the most? I serve a risen savior and I'll see Him in heaven! How great is that! Some may say that I'm wrong. That is their opinion. If I am wrong and we just dry up and turn to dust when we die, then I have lost nothing because of my beliefs. But, if they are wrong, then the outcome is unimaginable and I will be in heaven. Choose wisely. Hope to see you there.

The Southern Baptist Convention does not have a fixed number of missionaries that it sponsors, as it depends on various factors such as funding and specific missions projects. However, the Southern Baptist International Mission Board, which is the main sending agency for Southern Baptist missionaries, currently supports around 3,600 missionaries around the world.

I can speak of Southern Baptist Convention and United Methodist. The Southern Baptist predominately believe in the literal interpretation of the Bible. They consider it the inspired word of God as well as the teachings and writings of Paul to be the example for the New Testament church. The four spiritual laws are a foundation for their evangelism as well. God created man in his own image to dwell with Him. Man sinned and has a sinful nature that is abhorrent to God and therefore He cannot commune with man. God sent His only Son, Jesus, to become man and dwell among us and to be a sacrifice for mankind's sin and to be a bridge to God. Man can become a Child of God by accepting this gift and be rejoined with God now and forever.

United Methodist believe that God sent His Son and that man needs to commit himself as an individual and as a church to the earthly needs of man as well as accept Jesus as Savior. Methodists are more ecumenical than Southern Baptists and may be perceived as less critical of other religions. In larger churches you might find the Methodist to appear to be less evangelical.

If I were on a spiritual journey and wanted clear cut dogma, I would go with Southern Baptist. They are into strong belief in prayer and personal Bible study.

If in my spiritual journey I wanted a variety of opinions and more intellectual banter, I would search out a Methodist church.

Whichever journey on you are on, God bless you and give you strength.

Doctrinal Research is concerned with legal prepositions and doctrines. whereas non doctrinal research is concerned with people, social values and social institutions. in case of doctrinal research the sources of data are legal and appelate court decesions whereas in the other case the sources of data are less and mostly new techniques have to be used. doctrinal research is not concerned with people but documents whereas in case of nondoctrinal more importance is given to the society and people. the scope of doctrinal research is narrower as compared to non doctrinal since it studies about what the doctrine or the authority says yet more encouragement is given to doctrinal type of research than the non doctrinal. there is no requirement of imparting training for collection and use of sources whereas training is needed to use new techniques in the non doctrinal research. in case of doctrinal field work is not needed library is sufficient whereas in non doctrinal research the field work is most important ingredien

It is simple, Jesus Christ and the word of God(Bible).

the Bible is clear on this but many do not understand the meaning of the phrase.

His name is Prospector Pete. He's a representation of a Forty-niner, which was the name for the miners who came to California during the Gold Rush.

A number of Christian rituals have roots in Jewish traditions. The celebration of the Jewish festival of Passover, which commemorates the exodus of Jews from captivity in Egypt, has been mixed with Easter from the beginning and the Hebrew word Pesach, originally meaning Passover, came to mean Easter as well.

Christian worshippers from all over the world gather in the Holy Land of Jerusalem for Easter celebration. Pilgrims congregate for an Easter sunrise service at the Garden tomb in Jerusalem. Easter mass is celebrated at the ancient Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem's walled Old City. Priests and monks chant the liturgy, as incense rises above the tomb where Christians believe Jesus rose from the dead.

In mainland Israel, orthodox Jews celebrate the Passover while Messianic Jews celebrate Easter like the rest of the Christians around the world. The different celebrations arise from the fact that Orthodox Jews do not accept Jesus Christ to be the Messiah sent from God, and therefore they do not celebrate his Crucifixion or his return from death.

During Easter many processions are held in Israel where groups travel the route of Jesus Christ's journey to Golgotha. The route is referred to as the Twelve Stations of the Cross.

The Billy Graham Association, in Charlotte North Carolina, is the approved way to ever hope of contacting Billy Graham to ask him a question and get his answer.

Unless you happen to know the family, of course.

Though it is doubtful that your question would get through to him at this stage in this life, since in 2016 he is 97 years old, and I am pretty sure he has a younger team of people who receive and answer question for him.

No. The Duggar family are not members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church). The Duggars have attended several churches and generally are described as independent conservative Baptists. The Duggars tend to be more conservative than the average Mormon, although they have said they are often asked if they are Mormons.

I do not have any solid evidence that Michael Jackson knew and believed ( meaning trusted) Jesus Christ as his savior. I read someone posted he was raised Jehovah's Witness. Jehovah's Witnesses do not believe in the biblical Jesus Christ. In scripture Jesus is the only God (part of the Trinity) who died to save all the world of it's sin. Genesis, Isaiah and the Gospels are just a few books that speak so visually of God and Jesus. Jehovah's Witnesses claim Jesus to just be a prophet or at best one of a few children of God. They also claim to be born into the Kingdom and to be gods as well. This is contradictory to Christians and the Bible. Christians believe that only Christ is God and that He gave us all a choice to confess our sins and forsake them or to deny Him and live apart from Him. It is an all or nothing choice. No partial belief counts in Christianity.

Did Michael Jackson repent, accept Christ?

Pop idol reached out to Gospel star Andrae Crouch before death

Gospel superstar Andrae Crouch and his twin sister, Sandra, confirm meeting with Michael Jackson and praying and singing with him weeks before his death.

Jackson, raised as a member of the Jehovah's Witness sect and reportedly a convert to Islam last year, sought out the Crouches for inspiration for his upcoming tour, for which he was unprepared, according to a report in Assist News Service.

But while some blogs have reported that meeting led to a spiritual conversion by Jackson, the Crouches say they are not certain.

"Not sure where that came from," said Sandra Crouch on her Facebook page. "We loved and respected Michael and will continue to pray for his family. All the extra is not from us."

A spokesman for the Crouches had this to add: "Andrae and Sandra did in fact visit with Michael Jackson two times, once at the recording studio, and once at his home in the last two months, as recently as three weeks ago, asking for prayer concerning the anointing of the Holy Spirit, and how he could make his music more 'spiritual.' So Andrae and Sandra explained to him about the anointing and about Jesus. He wanted to know what makes your hands go up, and makes you 'come out of yourself,' and what gives a 'spirituality' to the music? He then requested to hear his favorite song that he loves and wanted the(m) to sing to him, so they ... joined hands and sang together, and he said, 'It was beautiful.' He first heard it in New York, and loved it and wanted it on tape. He had the engineer tape the song sang to him by Andrae and Sandra. He definitely had an encounter with them."

Was there evidence of a conversion?

The Crouch spokesman said: "He did NOT reject Jesus or the prayer when (we) prayed, and gladly joined in prayer. He usually doesn't touch anybody, but he touched them, and held their hands in a circle as they sang and prayed. There was NO actual 'sinners prayer' however, but they did talk and pray about Jesus and the anointing of the Holy Spirit. They also told him, 'Michael, we consider you as our son,' and he said, 'Yes, yes, yes' and gave him his latest music on a CD, and he told him, 'Andrae I trust you with this,' and gave him CDs of 2 songs ... unpublished, beautiful music."

With the amount of stress put on high school students these days, it only makes sense to reward them with carefree times to have fun, such as a school dance like Homecoming or a winter formal.

We do not know how he died or even how old he was when he died. He died in 1441 but we don't know when he was born. It is likely that he was born sometime between 1390 and 1400.

the most prominent leader was Martin Luther King Jr. there were many other ones, Rosa Parks started it all!!!

Tourist and student come forewarned,

Milan, they're told, is nothing more

Than Brummagen half-latinized,

Its loud display of wealth a bore,

Aping America in outsized

Automobiles and skyscrapers:

Ethical conduct quite suborned

By latterday financial capers.

Excerpt from 'Milan' by Richard Church

Last night I dreamed I was at a concert

So many people, you had to stand in line

One night only in Soul Heaven

I didn't wanna wake up

I was having such a good time

All of The Bar-Kays were tuning up on stageon

Jimi had his guitar, gettin' ready to play

Sam was singing "A Change Gonna Come"

Otis was there, sittin' on the dock of the bay

There was a party in Soul Heaven

Superstars from the past

Standing room only, so you better hurry

Buy your ticket cause they're going fast

Train & Miles took a mean solo

Jr. Walker had 'em dancing in the aisles (Shoot 'em for he run now)

They stood up when Jackie sang "Lonley Teardrops"

When Sammy danced, the crowd went wild (Mr. Bojangles)

I thought I saw Ella standing with Mahalia

Backstage was Elvis with his blue suede shoes

It started raining, everybody just stayed there

To hear Z.Z. sing the "Down Home Blues"

Well there's a party in Soul Heaven

Superstars from the past

Standing room only, so you better hurry

Buy your ticket cause they're going fast

There's a party in Soul Heaven

Superstars from the past

The great Al Jackson was a holding down the beat

When Marvin sang "Let's Get It On", they jumped to

Their feet

Everyone started screaming and gave a standing ovation

When the curtain came up with the mighty Temptations

King Curtis blew the "Soul Serenade"

Thought I saw Lady Day sittin' in the

Shade

I got two lovers and I ain't ashamed

Lord I love the way sweet Mary sings

It was getting kinda late, it was time to go

Tupac and Biggie, they closed the show

I didn't wanna wake up, I was having such a good time

I didn't wanna wake up, I was having a good time

Pearl Bailey, she was there

Duke and Count, they were there

Woah Donnie Hathaway, I saw him there

Dizzie and Satchmo, I saw 'em there

It was a party in Soul Heaven

You shoulda been there

You shoulda been there

Everybody was having such a good time

Soul Heaven
