What I mean is, when do we know to quit wasting our time on those who ACT interested in knowing Jesus and hearing about OUR personal relationship with Him ONLY to turn around and mock us and ridicule our beliefs either right away or behind our backs or the following week when they bounce a check and want to blame that on God too....and who we try to continue to share Christianity and the joy we know as Christians following the word of God, walking the path He chose for us, having such comfort in our destiny and our salvation.
The Bible tells us to share the word of God and it also tells us not to "throw our pearls to swine", when do YOU know the difference?
I sometimes have a hard time with this one.

If we all believe in a 'higher spirit' (God, Allah, Buddha ... call Him / Her what your faith believes), who supposedly wants the same for all of mankind, ie. 'peace and goodwill to all men', why the heck is everyone kicking 7 buckets of cr*p out of each other because of their (mis)interpretation of their belief?

my three friends and I do a USD20 gift exchange for christmas each year. we'd write our four names on a note and draw. so long we do not draw on our name, we'll then get a gift for that 'secret pal'.

over the years, i have exhausted my mind on what to buy. any one has any ideas how to do it differently (besides drawing names) or any creative gifts to recommend?

fyi, one is a rich lady who "has everything", one is a homely lady with only husband and kid in mind, one is a feminine lady who likes pretty stuff.

thanks.

I thought it was later than that for sure... What are you doing right now? I'm going to take a break from this computer and go and pray.

Remember, Muslims make the retroactive claim that Allah is the same God of the Jews and Christians, and thus made revelations to Jews and Christians, however, those pesky Jews and Christians "corrupted" the word of God and thus, God (Allah) revealed himself yet again in the Quran!

Does this make sense? Muslims claim that the Jews and Christians BEFORE Islam were Muslims, and these Muslims corrupted the text of Allah, so Allah revealed himself yet a third time in the Quran, were somehow the modern day Muslim doesnt somehow corrupt the text of the Quran. What?????

"Ahh...but Allah protects the Quran, today where he didnt protect his Bible and Torah or yesterday!"

What!!!!! Is Allah and idiot!!!

Why would Allah, who can protect or preserve anything, NOT protect the bible and torah only to later change his mind like some infant in the toy store, and decide to finally protect his works? Didnt Allah know he would create 3 fricking religions as a result who would fight each other

I asked a legitimate question, and somebody responded with "R U guys stupid or what?" I wasn't really offended by this but I reported them for abuse out of spite. I just hate it when somebody takes the time to answer a question, but they don't offer anything in their answer. What happens when somebody is "reported"?

This one is an OK option. I've just seen many say not here, and I'm curious as to what opinions might be on a more satisfactory place.

I want to know who is also following Real christianity, and is not wicked. Our great Lord Jesus said in Matthew 5:47 when he was talking about the old law,...

"And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 BE PERFECT, THEREFORE, AS YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER IS PERFECT. Many say, every-one has sinned, and a sinner cannot enter the kingdom of heaven of God who is perfect, therefore accept Jesus into your life,. But I don't know whether they catch the point or not. How will Jesus redeem you? How will he make you fit to appear before God, I'd urge all men to look at Jude in it's entirety, and keep in mind that Godly men prefer the light, esp. Jude 24 To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence 'without fault' ..., and he has said to establish the difference between faults and faultlessness who change the grace of God into a licence for immorality,? Who had become perfect'n gres

Who discovered the wheel? Who discovered how to make fire? All these creations are absent from the so-called holy books of both Jews and Christians. WHY?

Question: In Surah Talaq Verse 13, the term "Heavens" is plural while "earth" is singular. Some say that "seven" mentioned in Surah Momineen verse 18 refers to the solar system. What is your comment on this? Hazrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad(ra) - 12 Mar 98 - 11 minutes - Liqama'al Arab - Eng/Ara
