Isn't the expression "Born Again Christian" redundant? It seems that to be a Christian,, you must be "Born Again".

Seriously I have noticed this have you? It doesn't even matter what the question or answer is. Some one will decide to dislike it. I try not to thumbs down anyone as their opinion is theirs and they have a right to it.

I hope this doesnt sound like a silly question, but I have always seen baseball players do the sign of the cross and several other people do it, but I would like to know what it means. I am not catholic so I dont know this. Appreciate your help.

I've been thinking about becoming one. You know like Tammy Faye or Jan Crouch. I've got the wardrobe, the blonde hair and the mascara. I'm just wondering if I have to sing. I'm not the best singer LOL! Or do I just sit on the couch, look concerned and then just laugh or cry when it's needed? If so, I can do that.

What other skills will I need?

Are they just asking for attention from me? Do they really want me to embarass them in front of everybody?

When you stand before God, and the book of life is open and He reminds you of all the things you have done, good or bad, what answers will you give Him? Will you beg for mercy or hang your head in shame and accept your punishment? Now is the time to be doing something about what He will say to you on that day. Do you choose Heaven or Hell?

I have prayed nightly, wrote journal every night, read the book "Every Man's Battle", been to counseling and I still struggle with lust problem. I am extremely frustrated and depressed about the thought that this might be a lifelong battle.
Why did God give me this unendurable obstacle to go through in the first place? Why is He not intervening in my life to free or at least mitigate my pains from this problem?
Sorry to bother u guys again but I am struggling mightily. Any support or insight would be appreciated.

I know that there is some debate in christian circles about whether the death penalty is biblical endorsed. I know the old testament prescribed the death penalty for an extensive list of crimes. BUt what does the New testament say?

Jesus came to fulfill the old testament so does that mean that capitol punishment is still a viable option? Or do should we follow the "let he who has no sins cast the first stone" saying.?

Im opposed but Im curious what other people think.

OK. Now what if I said that because of you guys, I did not believe in God anymore? That I was converting to Atheism/Agnosticism? Would you be happy or would you make fun of me for not staying true to my faith? Keep in mind I'm not saying this, but just to put this scenario up.....

I see that most questions in this religious forum are answered via vulgarities, and just plain out right obsenities that is unbefitting of such a forum reguardless of the questions asked. The beast 666 is anyone who partakes in such acts of filth even if it is just answering a simple question with vulgarities, violence, or abusiveness of any type. A servant of Satan takes on the number of the beast the instant he or she does evil. Jesus blood undoes that and cleans you when you ask for forgiveness. The bible speaks of more than just a single man being a beast, it speaks of what the number 666 means, that all mankind has the ability to be the beasst. Most who answer with obsenities have become that beast, and serve satan, and not God. Jesus was the example of how to be peaceful and loving reguardless of what you are faced with. Be it a simple question, or a vulgar, or even a stupid one you should answer in peace and love not via obsenities and insults.

They say "Guns don't kill people, people kill people." Well I think the guns help. If you stood there and yelled BANG, I don't think you'd kill to many people

When you were born, everyone around you was smiling and you were crying. Live your life so that when you die, you're smiling and everyone around you is crying.

One day you'll come to me and ask me what's more important: You or my life. I'll say my life and you'll walk away never knowing that you're my life

just thought they were cute what do you think
