Comments for Live from Criswell with Barry Creamer http://criswell.barrycreamer.com Christian Worldview Talk Show Thu, 29 Jul 2010 00:27:22 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 Comment on Join the Discussion, Listen Online, or Learn More! by bryan http://criswell.barrycreamer.com/comment-page-1/#comment-4373 bryan Thu, 29 Jul 2010 00:27:22 +0000 http://barrycreamer.com/criswell/?page_id=2#comment-4373 It was interesting to me to hear that one of the reasons for avoiding gluttony or drinking was to avoid "hurting your testimony." If that is the case, I would be curious to hear what the testimony is. If our testimony is about our performance, then yes we must perform perfectly in order to qualify to testify. If our testimony is about God's grace and the completed work of Jesus, then we are free to testify of the GOOD NEWS regardless of our level of perfection (maturity). I believe that the enemy uses the first idea to prevent us from sharing the good news (by getting us to focus on ourselves and how imperfect (uncompleted) we are). Love your show!

]]> Comment on Anxiety: Causes and Effects by Debbie Stanglin http://criswell.barrycreamer.com/2010/07/22/anxiety-causes-and-effects/comment-page-1/#comment-4344 Debbie Stanglin Thu, 22 Jul 2010 23:31:44 +0000 http://criswell.barrycreamer.com/?p=1750#comment-4344 Love the show - listened to the show on the way home as I do just about everyday. Interesting topic - I will try to not sound angry in my response - but I think people that are not in the medical field or that do not have anziety, do not need to dicuss or judge something they know nothing about. I think John was very judgemental in his opinion about anxiety saying it is a sin. Yes, as you have probably concluded, I do have anxiety. (attacks) Mine is a due to the blood flow in "certain times of the month". I do not have an episode every month and at the on set of one I take a perscribed medication (Lexopro). The Dr at first perscribed it for me to take everyday, but I do not want to be dependant on something on a daily basis when my body has shown me that it is not necessary. I used to have migraine headaches at that "certain time of the month" but have not had one of those in years. Maybe I misunderstood your definition of anxiety, but what I have is not just the pacing of the floor or rubbing of the hands, if you will, my symptoms can actually make you think yhou are having a heart attack. I know that you nor anyone else wanted to hurt any feelings today or be insinsitive, but insinsitive is really what it appeared to be. I did not have my phone and would have really rather called in. I still love you and your show, but something that Doctor's really don't know how to explain shouldn't be up for such harsh dicussion from people that are ingnorant to the subject. I would love to see John and you in front of someone that is having an anxiety episode so you could see that it is a real thing and not just an "act of worry".

Maybe ask him more questions about street witnessing. I think once you try to answer a fool in his folly, all conversation is lost concerning Christ. There is power in the Gospel not in rabbit trails. :) thank you for Nathaniels expertise. I hope you bring Nathaniel back to your show. Maybe ask him more questions about street witnessing.

Can you or Dr David Henderson recommend a christian psycologist in the DFW metroplex area. I have a son who suffers from mental illness and I am afraid that my daughter sometimes shows some symptoms of depression and loneliness as described by Dr Henderson. I would like to take her to someone to talk to.. Appreciate your help. thanks Hello Dr Creamer

What God did was to remove the gases to make the stars more visible? It it correct?

Is it also true that since the flood the human human lifespan reduce to the average of 70 years? I heard someone mentioned that the atmospheric changes caused the extinction and decreasing the human age. Is it true that dinosaur extincted because of the Flood?

When I explained by parenting views, you sin against God you dishonor me as the parent. This was in regards to my children and how their offense in my eyes is equal, they both need to face consequences for their actions, one is not guilter than the other. I was sushed and told that we will not talk about religion and that i was wrong.
