I believe that unless people become members of the family of God, praying to God is a waste of time. God will not answer prayer if we stand outside of His eternal family of Christian believers.

Moreover, we should end all our prayers by saying "in the name of Jesus." Of course, this only applies to Christians (members of the family of God).

I cannot comprehend why people who are not saved expect God to answer their prayers.

Otherwise, I see no difference between a Christain and a nonChristian asking God for help in prayer.

I not talking about repentance. I am talking about praying for wealth, cure for illnesses, etc.

Why would anyone expect God to answer prayers if repentance has not taken place in the life of that person?

Your thoughts?

For example, A works at Widget Co. for 35 years and gets a pleasing retirement plan. B worked at Widget Co. for 5 years, and contributed to the same retirement plan, but was severed and released with no benefits, as B was not fully vested, nor did B have as many years with the company, through no fault of their own. So, A gets money that B contributed, in addition to A's own contributions. Is that ethically and morally acceptable?

lets say you and your 16 yr old got into a fight. she forgot to do her chorse one day, and had food in her bedroom another time. you ground her from going on a trip out of state to stay with her best friend for a weekend.

what if: she went on the trip anyway. she left one night, got the money from her account, bought a plane ticket for the next morning, jumped the plane, and left. and she stayed there the whole weekend.

what would you do?

and...
1)if she called while she was gone would you yell at her, thereby encouraging her not to come back
2)if you think you could stop her, how?
3)what would you do when she eventually came back?

Sorry but it's always the female supervisors or mangers that have to irritate the shi t out of everybody.
So to any such ladies please tell me why you go out of your way to be extra rude, pushy and impolite to your subordinates?

Do either of these quotes from the linked article surprise you?
"...and those who said they never attend religious services read nearly twice as many as those who attend frequently."

"Those likeliest to read religious books included older and married women, LOWER EARNERS, minorities, LESSER EDUCATED PEOPLE, Southerners, rural residents, Republicans and conservatives"

My C drive apparently had a game downloaded directly to it. Since then the game was uninstalled. However there is a windows icon there now. Like one you get if you click and it's an unknown program. Any suggestions on how to get the C drive icon back?

Ok, I just upgraded my 10 gallon, to a 20 gallon aquarium. I have 4 Neon Tetras and 1 betta. I went to Petsmart today to see what i liked. I came up with these:

-Gold Skirt Tetra
-Tiger Barb
-Red Glass Barb
-Red Tailed Shark
-Australian Rainbow
-Long Finned Red Minor Tetra
-Rosey Barb
-Albino Rainbow Shark

Which of those would get along with my current fish? Also, of those that can get along, how many can I safely put in?
