20Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. 22Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom, 23but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, 24but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength. ! Corinthians-- God is not mocked, the Truth is the Truth and it will make men stumble. This is far from new news, but blessed are those who believe and have not seen. His Word will not return void! Isaiah 55:11 And for believers Ephesians 6:12 "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness

Last thursday night I went out with my friends and I had half of a small drink, that Sunday I went out for my friend 21st birthday party and I had half of a small drink as well. But after while of being with my friends I felt so bad about going so I left both nights early. I feel as if God is mad at me for going.
I wanted to support my friends, but I don't want them to feel as if I'm interested in hanging out with them any more. because I leave early? WILL GOD FORGIVE ME FOR THE MISTAKE THAT I MADE FOR GOING OUT I WANT TO HAVE FUN WITH MY FRIENDS, BUT I FEEL BAD WHEN I GO OUT TO HAVE FUN? iS IT REALLY BAD TO GO OUT IF YOU ARE TRYING TO BE SAVE?

I think a lot of people do if they are being honest. I love it when I think people look really scary and hard and then they turn out to be big softies. I know it's wrong but I do it sometimes. It can work the other way too - some people look really classy and posh then you find out they are the complete opposite. We are funny creatures us humans don't you agree?

My father was having some problems down in Georgia..I live a good 1500 miles away and couldn't leave. i heard the motel he was living in burnt down and I couldn't get ahold of him, I wanted to make sure he was alright. I called down to 5 different churches, in the southeastern part of Georgia, to see if someone could go over and make sure he was alright, make sure he had food and water and clothing whatever. I even left messages on e-mail. Can you believe not one got back to me...not one church! Where was the christian way there? If I were to call you..would you have helped. Can you trust your church?

Sounds like a silly question right? Well considering that there are aborigines, asians and black people living in Australia.

So then why do you never see any ethnics in Australian international TV, music and sports (okay you see the odd one in their Rugby team). The TV programmes we see in the UK such as Home & Away, Neighbours, Cell block H and so on dont have any actors from ethnic backgrounds. I know there was A black actor in neighbours a very long time ago but he just a one-show-cameo role.

So what is Australia all about? Is Australia saying that it is too right-wing OR is it trying to make the world think that ethnics can only be sport, movie, TV or music stars in other contries like France, US, England? Even Germany has black football players now beat that one...

Do note that i havent been to Australian yet so before i get bombarded with 'locall & domestically we have lots of famous Asians blah blah etc' Im just commenting on how it may seem to us non-Aussies...

I will not stop. It amuses me to rub people the wrong way. If you really want to stop my fun, ignore me. Seriously. Ignore me. If you want a world with more free speech filters, go live in a socialist or communist society.

Oh....and anything witty you may type in here really has no merit. I will be back. See ya.

Did Andrea Yates actually ‘Do the right thing’? And don’t worry, I certainly don’t believe it makes any sense-I ain’t gonna kill anybody! I'm just trying to make a point.

This is very important. I'm receiving a powerful vision from someone's deceased male relative. He's showing me a baseball bat or some kind of other blunt object. Also I'm seeing something about hair, perhaps a transplant or a toupee. Also there's a powerful smell of freshly cut grass. Does that mean anything to anyone? Well, whoever this message is for, this ghost dude wanted me to tell you he's sorry about that thing he used to do and it'll never happen again. Mostly because he's dead now.

1 Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. 2 But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things. 3 And do you think this, O man, you who judge those practicing such things, and doing the same, that you will escape the judgment of God? 4 Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? 5 But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, 6 who “will render to each one according to his deeds”:[a] 7 eternal life to those who by patient continuance in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality; 8 but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness—indignation and wrath, 9 tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek; 10 but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 11 For there is no partiality with God.
