First and foremost this is a Christian website and we realize that some visitors may not be Christians and may live in parts of the world where being a Christian is dangerous. So before we get to the intellectual stuff we offer these invitations:
If you are not a Christian but want to become one we invite you to go to Becoming a Christian
If you are a Christian living in a place that is hostile to your being a Christian we invite you to participate in our Message Board where you will be joined with Christians who will pray for you and post messages to you using a code name to keep your identity safe. There are Christians praying for you already. Some are already posted in the message board and you can find their names there.
Christians who visit this website may wish to become prayer partners with those who become Christians. If you want to join in this ministry we would like to get you onto the message board now so you can be seen to be praying for someone somewhere who will become a Christian. Please email us and we will post your name.
Or, you may wish to comment on any of the content. We welcome email responses but with the understanding that we will probably not be able to respond personally. However, we will post representative comments.
Our email address is: intelligentchristian@cwcom.net

'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'
Visitors are asked to note that this is not an academic website but one that intends to assist us to activate our minds as Christians. Go to Our Method for our basics in the use of mind in worshiping and studying the Lord.
