I do not want to see links from fundamentalist shitheads. I want information on and about Pagan shortwave broadcasts, not fundamentalist orgasmic preaching.

i read the bible regularly (new king james, red letters higlighting jesus's words). He only ever refers to himself as a "prophet" (Luke13:33) but mainly the "son of man". infact the only time he says anything like the "son of god", is "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God." Matthew 5:9, so he is calling us the sons of god!!. surely claiming to be divine/GOD would be in contradiction with the first (and according to jesus.. the greatest of all) commandments. Exodus 20? why would he fail to mention to his disciples.. or any1 about the trinity?? its kind of a big thing! i find that gods singular and devine being is exaclty who jesus was praying to throughout the new testament. i dont even understand how you conclude the trinity from the bible?? can any1 quote me something from jesus please?? bare in mind..the job of any prophet, as he refers to himself, is to show people the truth, and guide them to salvation/correct path to god!

The word Lord and God are only titles. Jesus said that there are many gods. Also in 1 Corinthins 8 :5 Paul makes the same statement.
God name was used over 7,000 time in the original manuscripts. I think you can still find it in your Bible at Isaiah 42:8 and in Pslams 83 : 18
Jesus said He came here to make His Fathers name known. I think mankind has the same problem today!

In our scriptures, seven type of worlds are mentioned. They are in this manner:- BHUH, BHUBAH, SUBAH, MAHAH, JANAH, TAPAH AND SATYAM. Some people acknowledge of another 4 type of world. They are like – MAHARLOK, JANOLOK, TAPOLOK AND SATYOALOK. Some people have the impression of 14 worlds. According to them seven are on the earth and another seven are below the earth. The first seven has already been mentioned. The rest seven are – Atal, Bital, Sutal, Rasatal, Talatal, Mahatal and Patal. These are called as Adholok.
Earth contains seven colors of the light. Earth’s splendor zone is lit by seven colors that is in the rainbow. Those are the seven world. It is situated around the earth like a rainbow. The ocean, mountains, rivers, meadows, drains and ditches of stagnant water come under Adholok. They cover 75% of the earth.
When man dies, he gets detached from the material body, but remains alive in a tiny form for sometime in the cordon of thin body (Desire body). With cremation of the material body, the thin body also meets the death-the soul moves towards the suitable atmosphere as according to the sanskar & Odor it carries. It is a natural process, because the soul is controlled by the law of nature (which is automatic). The mental status of a person is made according to the kind of like he leads while a alive, and according to the mental status the sanskar & odor of the soul is made. (That is why it is advised that a man should always have a noble mentality, should go for scented flower and objects, clean clothes, beautiful natural scenes. He should be in a better mental condition during the time of his death.)
After death, a soul gets a place in different layers (worlds) as mentioned before, or for the greed of a new life it takes a place in the body of a person of similar sanskar & odor, through the person’s respiratory system, and passing through different stages of the body systems it becomes a part of the reproductive organ. It comes out of the father’s body in form of a sperm (as discussed before) to join the rush for a combination with ‘ovum’ of the mother along with other sperms. Only one out of them gets the chance to do so. In many occasions sperms get washed away in the bathroom itself. In that case, they have to bear the filthiness of the dirty drain as long as they are alive. After death they again mix up with the air. With thousands of attempts only a soul gets another chance of life. That is why it is told that a soul moves through 84 lacs of vaginas before getting the life of a human being. Number of chances for it may range from 1 to millions of times. A life a available after this amount of struggle, and then the struggle for existence also starts after getting a new life. There is no value of this life. Risen up from the surface of earth only we can go to the space (sky). Earth, its upper layer and the atmospheric level above are the heaven or hell.
Selection is yours. You will feel the joy or pain during the ANTARAL (interval) period, as according to the mental status you carry which consequently affect the sanskar you will be carrying. If your soul is too powerful you may be winner in the competition for a new life, with little effort.
Become a human, a demon, a devotee or a God depending upon your caliber. You have to energize yourself for that.
It is nothing but the illusive effect of the prime element only, from which everything is originated. It gets fed up with all this and received the ‘great death’ considering everything to be useless. The great death is the end of its existence.

Let look at this sentence,I have a question in there.
"With our historical background and our natural and human resources,it should be easier for us than it was for X-country to rise to the place of a first class power by a partial adaptation of western civilization."
My questions:1.What does the phrase of "by a partial adaptation of western civilization" mean in the context?
2.I am not alway able to use words like"of,to,for,"or whatever corectly,I know it hard to master them all,Do you have any good idea to suggest me improving my ability to use them all correctly,if you have such a idea,Please ,please tell me,Thank you.
3.In the sample,Can I change the past tense for prensent tense?Or Will you advise me better to pick up past tense?Any reason?
I do hope I am not bothering you guys with so many seemingly simple questions if you think I was giving too many questions.
Thank you.

Does the fact that God's(Jesus Christ) prefered method of reaching out to non-believers is through those people that are saved?
It's very rarely that God is gonna show up personally to see anybody;either you've prayed long and hard enough to achieve His presence, or there's a situation that requires Him to show up personally.
And He obviously thinks that the problems we have now (like starving africans,opressed nations ect.) are problems we have the power and ability to solve.We need for saved and spirit-filled leaders

So when do non-believers wise up and realize that their problems and lack of faith, and even humanity's problem in general are of our own doing and not God's fault.

1 Corinthians 14:32-The spirits of prophets are subject to the control of prophets.

I’m a male-female pre op Trans person,
I am only on Aldactone at the moment
Plain to start estrogens within next few weeks
But yesterday I realized I had, what looks like sweat all over my right nipple
Worried I played with a little bit and more clear liquid came out of it
A few minutes ago I squeezed my nipple to see and the clear liquid appeared out in three little bits about a drip
My blood test from three weeks ago shows my prolactin to be in normal male range
I am going to see my doctor GP on Monday about this but because
I live in a remote town my doctor GP may not know what it is or how test it
I will see my gender doctor two weeks from now
I can’t before as I live a thousand kilometres away from them
Would like to know if this is a something I should worry about and make the trip sooner
I know what it could be but would like some other TG idea’s before I say anything
