since:
-bible 25% of the bible is already fulfilled prophecy
-other religions say you get there by good works but no one is good enough they need grace from Jesus
-archaeology confirms the bible
-creation tells us there is a Creator just like a watch tells us there is a watchmaker, you wouldnt think a computer evolved if you found it in the forest you would know someone designed it
-there is power in Him and not only word!

Luke 6:
"Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you."

Me, I want to overcome fornication. I feel awful emtionally, and find myself ENVIOUS of anyone who saved themselves for marriage and who do it the "clean" way. But I find it tough, but I cannot give up. If I were to die tonight, I'd be in Hades/hell for that reason alone, instead of beautiful heaven.

Also, looking at men as my master. I was never the type to want to be submissive; I ALWAYS wanted to be treated as an equal partner. I especially cannot be submissive to a man knowing that there are men who'll take advantage and beat on a woman, as it happened to me before.

Tell me what you think... I think TV is what makes us look bad and Islam in general people make everything seem so bad when its completely the opposite of what everyone THINKS and WANTS TO BELIEVE!

Why are people so judgemental about Muslims? We didn't do anything so why are we being seen as bad people? Just because other people are bad?.... Why should you judge and be so cruel when white, black, asian, and whatever do bad s-h-i-t all the time!!! But do you see them being treated bad EVERYWHERE YOU GO?...

Straight people say I am a normal weight, and some girls think I am too skinny, and then when I ask gay guys, most all of them say I need to lose weight? I am very confused. Do you think gay people need to be skinnier than straight people to find happiness?

I was invited to their meeting this week and met some really nice, cool people. I was one of the younger folks there and learned that there are some pretty hefty dues for lunches and regular dues as well, plus there are fines for little stuff as well.

I want to be part of the club to help them with their community service and to meet other pro's in my city. However, I don't know that I can afford the dues & fines (I know, it's all for charity). I'm thinking I should wait till I'm making more money...

I am a licensed professional in my field and want to be part of the club but gah, I didn't know it would cost me so much to participate! Any Rotarians want to chime in?

Ok, I go to a Catholic school and all through last yr I had a Bible study course where we basically just looked at the Bible in depth and stuff..a lot of it was rly eye opening & I really enjoyed the class....but this is something I've always always wondered, and plz don't get mad at me but.....obviously I missed something during that class...

How do we know that the Bible is real? How do we know that ppl didn't just write it and its filled with a bunch of like stories written by wise people? I probably sound really stupid asking this but just how do we know its actually important? How is different from other literature from way back in time (like Beowulf) or mythology?

*Every time I ask a question regarding religion, ppl get all mean and make me feel really stupid. Please don't do it, I mean seriously I'm asking this question because I don't know, not to be ridiculed! THANKSSSS!*

After stumbling upon www.godhatesglobes.com one day, I thought it was a parody. The webmaster seemed so very intent on "proving" that the earth is flat that I figured, in the year 2006 AD, no one could seriously believe that planet Earth is flat.

I guess I was wrong.

How can someone truly say that the Earth is flat (which the bible clearly implies, read the latest post on the site for biblical verses) when there is an abundance of evidence to the contrary? How can someone believe that even though thousands of people take flights around the world every day, we haven't lost one plane "over the edge" or had one single person leak the "truth"? How do you explain satellites and pictures of the earth from the moon? How about how ships disappearing over the horizon? GPS? Gravity?

I think most everyone agrees that the earth is round. Is this just another contradiction or can someone clear this up for me without preaching?

when people say we need you to help donate to lost and sick/ homeless pets, when there are millions of people living without the basic things in life? Wouldn't you rather help out a dying person than just some animal?

when i was growing up in india, as a young boy i once asked my pakistani muslim mother this question

' mummy, how can muslims say that the quran is god's word when it contains so much horror stories?'

this is what my mother told me
' son we muslims usually believe rubbish'

its 25 years since my mother passed away and her words always echo in my mind.
do you think my mother was right?
