  • If Jesus came to remove the sins of this world?

    1) Why is there still sin in the world?

    2) How is it that certain sins (1 Cor 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.) are mentioned AFTER Jesus was crucified carrying the sins of the world on his shoulders? Paul was talking to the CHURCH with his reminder here, not unbelievers, but believers.

  • Why is there corporate prayer if Jesus said:?

    "When you pray, don't be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get. But when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, who sees everything, will reward you. When you pray, don't babble on and on as people of other religions do. They think their prayers are answered merely by repeating their words again and again. Don't be like them, for your Father knows exactly what you need even before you ask him!" ~Matthew 6:5-8

    Jesus also never gives any examples of standing in a circle asking everyone to hold hands and bow their heads while everyone says a bit of a prayer. In fact, he says to do the opposite.

    Am I wrong to say corporate prayer is actually against the teachings of Jesus?

  • Where does the "Age of Accountability" come from?

    I've heard pastors speak on it saying that children aren't responsible for their salvation until the age of 13, but I cannot find their source(s) in the Bible. Is this just a man-made myth?
