Tips for Quitting Smoking?
I have been saved for about 7 years now and out of those seven years I have only went without smoking for maybe a year into my walk with Christ. I really want to quit because it is not pleasing to God, it's unhealthy, expensive, and I'm just sick and tired of being sick and tired. I've tried everything from fasting and praying which did work initially to using the patch and gum, but nothing seems to stick.

Can there still be apostles?
Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection. (Acts 1:22) Can anyone be an Apostle today given this requiste, or are the ones who claim to be Apostles fitting 2 Corinthians 11:13?

Communism and Christianity
Most people who think they want that don't realize that's what it is, they just think that the government should be the ONE to provide everything for them as if they are children. What they don't realize is that this takes away freedom and leaves them at the mercy of the government. And thus we go back in time to the days of controlling kings, dictators and other life controlling forms of government that demand the peasants thank them for "taking care" of them. [Forum]

Student Sues School After Getting Zero for Religious Drawing
MADISON, WI - A Tomah High School student has filed a federal lawsuit alleging his art teacher censored his drawing because it featured a cross and a biblical reference. The lawsuit says other students were allowed to draw "demonic" images and asks a judge to declare a class policy prohibiting religion in art unconstitutional. "We hear so much today about tolerance," said David Cortman, an attorney with the Alliance Defense Fund, a Christian legal advocacy group representing the student. "But where is the tolerance for religious beliefs? The whole purpose of art is to reflect your own personal experience. To tell a student his religious beliefs can legally be censored sends the wrong message." Full Story | Discuss
