I already bought gifts for my friend's bridal shower, and i've been told money is the most appropriate gift for the actual wedding. How much should I give? I am going alone. If it matters, it is not black tie, but to my knowledge is not 'cheap' either.

Do you show each other the courtesy and love that Christ would have us show? Do you pray together and live in true "Comunion together? We are truly called to be the Body of Christ, this is true for our families as well.We are to love one another and to place each other before self.

All Christian religions, though all are slightly differant, want to obey The LORD, So if you deny, and put down, anouther Christian religion, are you not, in a way, denying The LORD?


I asked this question a few days ago, but have removed the example i gave, because i used the names of certain Christian religions, and people claiming to be Christians, insisted on posting such RUDE, UNGODLYLIKE ''ANSWEARS', so, in the hope that i will get a decent answear, this is the modified version(i deleted the first one.)

Nobody is able to prove the existence of God logically.One jentleman was answering like this ' I have not created '. He explained reading the second question " there is no need of an answer..But he has to answer the third one .He answered like this
" the questioner himself can very well go and ask the creator why he has created this universe.Do you think that the answer is up to
the standard ? If anybody is able to proove the existance of the
creator.

Does your faith and the love of our Creator show in all you do and say? I am a Catholic and I dearly want people to be able to look at me, or listen to me,or even read what I write and say,"Hey she is a Christian." I want the fact that I follow Christ to show. I want Him to shine through me. This is an area that I sadly need to work on.
Peace Be With You,
Debra

Time and time again I have heard people on here say "The Koran teaches that anyone who is not Muslim is an infidel and must convert to Islam or be killed..." or words to that effect. Is this what is written? Is this what is believed?

Ok so everytime a disagreement arises a bible thumper will throw the bible in your face as proof of their argument. I would like an answer that if the bible is the source of all answers why does it tell us ok to sell daughter as slave, kill mother for wearing garment made from 2 kinds of thread, etc? Is it really ok to do these things? ***My main question is that if you ignore half of the bible what makes the other half valid? Really not trying to be offensive but confused since it seems to be a "Pick what you like, call if word of God and discard what you don't like".
