Society & Culture - 15 September 2006

As you are all well aware, there are often some absolutely terrible things said about Jesus and God on this site by atheist. Do you ever feel, even for a second, like...gosh, I probably shouldn't have said that? As an example the guy who is always talking about Jesus' penis and sexuality...or the guy who just called God a fairy tale? Or a bit ago the person who said Jesus's mother mary was a whore...So you can just say these things with a clean guilt free concience?

Or is that an unselfish prayer? I mean, if I prayed that all the hungry could be fed, that would make me happy too. But in the end, it's mostly for someone else, right?

So Eloheim can mean generally two things (as far as the bible is concerned):
1. Supreme God
2. Being the Plural of El (meaning more than one god)

Do both these not conotate many Gods? "Supreme" makes the assumption that he is better than others.

supreme - of authority or an office, or someone holding it superior to all others.

Modern Protestant and Evangelical Christianity hold to the idea that Jesus IS God in the Flesh. Thus "Out of the flesh" Jesus would be god... Singular, Jesus being somewhat his earthly title.

So when the bible speaks of other Gods, Who is it refering to?

I want to put her in a trance, eyes rolled back, talking in tongues, with the only intelligible thing out of her mouth being "God." Who can I pray to to make this happen?

I am not American, but it really bother me how some people had the nerve to make fun of 9/11 in this forum. They even used the religion and spirituality section.

My husband worked w/ guy @ wal-mart (and yes I know him too) who felt a call to whitness to bikers. H steped out on faith and quit his job. He used his profit sharing to buy a fixer motercycle, and spent his spair time to fix it. He knew though that it was not the best bike to have in his indevor. He went to a bike rally one day to witness. At the rally was a charitable drawing for a fire fighter theamed bike (OCC but i'm not +) Anyway he felt god touch his heart, he thought for the charity. He used his last $20.00 to enter the drawing. And he WON THE BIKE!!!!! He was going to traid it b/c how lame to ride it not being a fireman. Then every conversation started to start like theis.
"hey man cool bike are you a fireman?"
"no"
"then why do you have that bike?"
"well let me just tell you."
God had rewarded his faith and opened the door to witnessing.
How can anyone not believe? This was no chance. It was to on the button. This is not made up I saw it with my own eyes.

where do you Christians get your information that church is a neceessity? in the bible it says fellowship with christians, not the act of attending church. (you can have fellowship in small groups, for example there are youth groups that meet away from church). Christ even preached against the churches, called them corrupt. the sabbath day is nothing more then a symbol of your willingness to set aside time for christ. (fyi, sabbath day would technically be saturday as that is the last day of our week. however God didnt create everything in 6 "days" these were just periods of time. cause how could you measure the first day when the earth wasnt even made? a day is the earths rotation on its axis. perhaps you guys need to read the Bible more and stop spoonfeeding this false information to people

Why is it that some of you not all but many athiest and agonostics on here find it neccisary to mock Jesus and our faith in him, instead of asking a half intelgient quistion. I have scene someone on here refering to a spegetti monster or something and I dont mock that so why is it you mock Jesus? And what do you plan to do should jugment day come along and your asked why you being so open minded couldnt open your mind or your heart to Jesus?

"Sura 9:5: And when the forbidden months have passed, slay the idolaters wherever you find them and take them captive, and beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they repent and observe Prayer and pay the Zakaat, then leave their way free. Surely, Allah is Most Forgiving, Merciful. " Is anyone Familar with the verse of the Quran?
