I love making the gifts I give. It gives me something to do, and it is less time I have to spend in the stores shopping. But I also like to shop, so some do get gifts I bought.

Jesus cares about you and loves you unconditonally and proves it-he did prove it to me through Messianic prophecy and as I learned he cares I realized the bible was true---"The wages of sin is seperation from God, but the Gift of God is everlasting life through Jesus the Messiah our Lord." Romans 6vs23


Revelation 1:1 and 19-22nd chapters Jesus speaking from heaven speaks about heaven and hell---
Jesus said if we reject this gift we die in our sins separated from God--"Hell is gnashing teeth torment forever, prepared for all who reject Salvation in the bible--Revelation 3vs19&20 is the cure repenting and letting Jesus into our heart in prayer to forgive and help us, and become our savior Messiah and friend!

John 12 vs 48 "The one that rejecteth my salvation in my words-hath one that judgest them on the last day-the words that I have spoken shall judge them."

Those who believe in Serj (including me) hold this belief just as strongly, and near to their hearts, as do followers of other faiths. Yet, most people here seem to place little value on my beliefs - which are every bit as valid as any other - simply by virtue of my faith in it. Same as all the other religions.

Please give me your thoughts on this?

Here in this question I replied with my honest opinion.
I am a former US soldier that did time on the DMZ in Korea. I was there almost 2 years and got to know a bit about Koreans and thier varying attitudes.
It certainly does to the Koreans.
I honestly believe my answer has in its simplicity some insight into the situation in that area of Asia. Especially given my limited knowledge of history and direct experience. I think I raise a valid point.
Another respondent to this question 'Tiko' the last respodent to the question at hand has fashioned himself as a nemesis of sorts or so it appears and occaisionally haunts me on Yahoo Q&A. Thus, ignoring the point I am making and taking liberty to make jabs at my character.

that we ( muslims ) worship allah only

(37. And from among His Signs are the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. Prostrate not to the sun nor to the moon, but prostrate to Allâh Who created them, if you (really) worship Him.
38. But if they are too proud[] (to do so), then there are those who are with your Lord (angels) glorify Him night and day, and never are they tired ) 41-37

at the time of prophets ,some ppl used to worship moon ,sun ad many others but muslims worship none but allah

Once again, my friends are sending me emails forwarded from some American Family (nutjob) group, who seems to be all worked up about the saying of Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays. I know tons of liberals and have asked them about this and they've ALL said they couldn't care less about your personal choice of greetings. Why do these religious creeps keep forcing this issue?

At my school I get teased a lot. Some kids find it entertaining that I go for girls. They call me carpetmuncher, dyke, freak, sinner, unnatural and say that I must be rape girls, which is rediculous because girls almost never rape other girls or boys for that matter, girls are in much more danger from men and boys than lesbians. Some kids think it is just a riot that my mom is Hispanic and my dad is not. I get called half-blood a lot. Some kids find it very entertaining that I read books that are not childish teen novels. Apparenly prefering Edgar Allen Poe, Lovecraft and Anne Rice to the Princess Diaries is evil. Do you have some advice on how to deal with these fools?

......or do we continue to embrace it under its most commonly referred to labeling. Perhaps it will never lose its meaning, this War on Terror, but for the Religious Right, it may have more impact. In fact it may work on both sides of the house as well as the middle. Because there is Good and there is Evil. Sometimes if we look at the same situation in more ways than one, we broaden our perspctive..
we see
good and we see evil.....and if we think deeply enough, we can see the EVIL within ourselves, our govenment, our country, our world. But stop. Yes. We see the evil in ourselves and our government....our country. And its a lot easier to see the EVIL in oneself and our government and our country than it is to see the TERROR within us......

Henceforth I will find it far easier to couple the Axis of Evil with the War on Evil.......It is so much better understood that way...and it serves to explain that evil emanates from many different contributors, sometimes from even our own..

How can you say you trust and place your faith in humanity? What has humankind itself done to earn your trust? I am not meaning to anger or be disrespectful but I want to say that humankind has caused much pain. Have you read the news lately? I honestly cannot say I see as much there to trust as to be saddened by.

that:
Son of God is a figure of speech which many other Prophets were labeled as for example; in the King James Version of the Bible


(Psalms 2:7) David is the begotten Son of God.


Many others in the Bible are called God's son;


Jacob God's firstborn son (Exodus 4:22)
Solomon is God's son (2 Samuel 7:13-14)
Ephraim is God's firstborn son (Jeremiah 31:9)
Adam is the son of God (Luke 3:38)
Other Prophets Preformed similar Miracles as Jesus ;


Ezekiel raised many from the dead (Ezekiel 37:1-9)
Joshua stopped the sun and moon for one whole day (Joshua 10:12-13)
Elisha raised the dead, resurrected himself, healed a leper, fed a hundred people with twenty barley loaves and a few ears of corn, and healed a blind man: (2 Kings 4:35, 13:21, 5:14, 4:44, and 6:11.)
Elijah raised the dead (1 Kings 17:22 and 14.)
Other Prophets were filled with the Holy Ghost;


Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost (Luke 1:67)
Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost (Luke 1:41)
Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost (Acts 4:8)
Paul, filled with the Holy Ghost (Acts 13:9)


Many other Prophets were called Lord for example;


Abraham (Genesis 18:12)
Esau (Genesis 32:4)
Joseph (Genesis 44:20)
David (1 Samuel 25:24)

The Bible itself says that children will not be punished for the parents' sins (Deuteronomy 24:16). Furthermore, if God really created Adam not knowing either good or evil (Genesis 3:22), how could such a harsh and enduring punishment as death for Adam and all his descendants (Romans 5:12) possibly be just? Our secular courts are more just than God when they show mercy on people who cannot distinguish between right and wrong, such as children and the mentally handicapped.

Should we, and because I am one of them, be able (or continue) to just "take from the state" ?

We contribute absolutely nothing to the economy.
We may have contributed in the passed, but how come this a justification for just "taking" now in the present ?

I personally think that it is an abomination - ie "taking" !

Please do not think that this is a sympathy type question .

Should we not just simply be allowed to "depart" in peace and upset nobody ?
