here is what you would have to do suffer the torment that he suffered hang on the cross as he did and spend 3 days in hell the same way he had to. in return he would forgive the whole world of their sins and he would stop the revelation and just go ahead and take every one to heaven.

now for the non believers who most likely will answer this question. at this point GOD and Jesus have proven to you that they exist and that the bible is true..

A Muslim Cleric seems to think so.

"If you take out uncovered meat and place it outside on the street, or in the garden or in the park, or in the backyard without a cover, and the cats come and eat it ... whose fault is it, the cats or the uncovered meat?" the sheik asked.

Christians don't believe in evolution. And yet they state there is no scientific evidence to support the theory.

Why is science all of a sudden so important when talking about evolutiion. They don't believe in Science they believe in God

Yet there is no scientific proof that there is a god.

Is it true that all worship invented by man is idolatry?

i•dol•a•try is 1. the religious worship of idols. 2. excessive or blind adoration, reverence, devotion, etc.

The Bible says, “Thus saith the Lord, Learn not the way of the heathen...For the customs of the people are vain”. Jeremiah 10:2-3

“Therefore shall ye keep mine ordinance, that ye commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the Lord your God.” Lev.18:30

What do you think?

Why are so many Women reverting to Islam?

According to "The Plain Truth", February 1984, in its 50 Year Anniversary Issue, quoting from the "World Almanac and Book of Facts 1935" and "Reader's Digest Almanac and Yearbook 1983", between 1934 and 1984.

Christianity increased 47 R>World Population increased 136 R>Islam increased 235STRONG>



200,000 people per year in America alone, are converting to Islam. For every 1 male convert to Islam, 4 females convert to Islam.
They're discovering the FACTS and not basing their decisions on biased media. They realise they deserve to know the complete unadulterated truth.

1. The Bible Convicts Women as the original Sinners (ie. Eve picking from the forbidden tree){Genesis 2:4-3:24}.

The Koran Clarifies it was Adam Not Eve {Koran 7:19-25}


2. The Bible says "The Birth of a Daughter is a loss" {Ecclesiasticus 22:3}.

The Koran says both are an Equal Blessing {Koran 42:49}


3. The Bible forbids women from speaking in church {I Corinthians 14:34-35}.

The Koran says women can argue with the Prophet {58:1}

4. In the Bible, divorced Women are Labeled as an Adulteress, not men {Matthew 5:31-32}

The Koran does Not have Biblical double standards{Koran 30:21}


5. In The Bible, widows and sisters do not inherit Any property or wealth, only men do {Numbers 27:1-11}

The Koran abolished this male greed {Koran 4:22} and God protects all.


6. The Bible Allows Multiple Wives {I Kings 11:3}

In The Koran, God limits the number to 4 only under certain situations (with the wife's permission)and prefers you marry only one wife {Koran 4:3} The Koran gives the woman the right to choose who to marry.


7. "If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, he shall pay the girl's father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the girl, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives" {Deuteronomy 22:28-30}

One must ask a simple question here, who is really punished, the man who raped the woman or the woman who was raped? According to the Bible, you have to spend the rest of your life with the man who raped you.

The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) Says {Volume 9, Book 86, Number 101} Narrated by Aisha:"It is essential to have the consent of a virgin (for the marriage)".

Would the Non-Muslim men reading this prefer the Women they know to be Christian or Muslim?


8. The Bible also asks women to wear veils as in Islam {I Corinthians 11:3-10}



9. Women were given rights to Vote less than a 100 years ago in the (US), while the Koran gave women voting rights almost 1,500 years ago.

I was on a waiting list for an apartment and finally got in. Woopee! Well I was shown the schematic and thought the apartment was on the front section at the end. Well she waited to show me the apartment until after I had already signed the lease, and this was after I put my notice in at my other apartment, and had asked 2 separate times. So, I live there now, down 5 flights of stairs, concrete, mind you, with a 2 year old and a 7 month old. I carry them up at 5am and down at 7pm, with 2 diaper bags and my school bag. I can't take them down and then get the bags because I'm a single mom and there's no one to watch them while I do this. So here's the deal I've fallen twice both times holding my children. Once down one set of stairs on my knees and had to have surgery, and one rolled with my daughter slipping on mud. I have a one year lease, but I'm worried with the winter months coming I won't be able to get us all up and down the stairs-Any suggestions?

No doubt a lot of people will be angry about this question.But shouldn't I be angry about distortion of the truth?To say that Jesus didn't die on a cross is bad but to say that Jesus did not resurrect is even worse.The claim that Jesus worked other micracles should not hold water either.

Apparently, the origins of Halloween can be traced back to ancient Ireland and Scotland around the time of Christ.
On Oct. 31st, this annual change of season and lifestyle was marked by a festival called Samhain. Here was much superstition associated with this time of change including the belief in fairies, and that the spirits of the dead wandered around looking for bodies to inhabit. Since the living did not want to be possessed by spirits, they dressed up in costumes and paraded around the streets making loud noises to confuse and frighten the spirits away.
The Roman Catholic Church replaced Samhain with All Saints’ Day in the year 835.

Ephesians 5:7-12

Don't participate in the things these people do. For though your hearts were once full of darkness, now you are full of light from the Lord, and your behavior should show it! For this light within you produces only what is good and right and true.
