If you say we are saved by faith alone, then you are saying that we don’t need to love anyone! Even God, in order to be saved!

If we need to love in order to be saved, then we are not saved by faith ALONE, because loving someone is a work.

Catholics put it like this: We are saved by God's grace.

Let me start off by saying that I have studied many religions in detail, and this is in no way meant to be a broad generalization, mainly some of the bigger religions (Islam, Judaism, Christianity). I think there are some religions out there who really do teach acceptance and have very good guidelines written into them.

If you will look at these religions views on other people and other religions in general, I do not see how a moral person could accept how their religion works. With the lack of evidence on any religion (please don't turn this into an argument of proof, you will look foolish), I have a hard time thinking that any person could be comforatable following the kinds of supreme beings these religions represent. Beings that turn a soul's afterlife into nothing more into a choose right and your in, choose wrong and your banished.

What are your thoughts on the subject?

A family tragedy is preventing my family from cooking this year and I'm wondering if any of you have ever taken that leap of faith and ordered a full pre-cooked Holiday dinner from one of your local grocery stores and had a good outcome? Normally, we'd cook but that's not in the stars for us this year. I sure hope next year is better. I don't know anyone who has done this. If you have, could you share your experience? Thanks so much, friends.

I consider this cheating and I try not to think about it but I can't help it. At times I even feel disgusted by it. He is the one that came to me and told me of this. I try to ask him what does this mean? Is he gay? Bi-sexual? or was he bi-curious? I try to ask but he brushes it off as if it isn't a big deal. When I do ask he says he is not gay but that is the end of the conversation. How can I find out? or How can he find out? I don't think he wants to know. So am I suppose to do act like nothing?

A Spanish guy, he is a waiter in a tapas bar called me "SIMPARTICO". Was he being rude,sarcastic, polite,disrespectful or what. My wife says she knows but wont tell me, she said it will do my ego no good. I don't think i've got an ego but I can't argue with the C.E.O, she who must be obeyed.

in the Bible people were bought and sold like cattle and became property for life or in some cases, as with a man's daughter, she got a 6-year term - so it IS slavery - any time your freedom is taken away with someone owning you are, by any name, a slave. Prophets, and other so-called people of God engaged in this practice - so why, would God condone it?

Jerry Fallwell has said all gay people are going to hell. This ticks me off. I have been boycotting his books and his TV shoes.
Does this make me hateful?

I have been in a common law relationship for 30 years. I became a Christian 10 years ago. My common law spouse keeps procrastinating about getting married and I don't want to manipulate him into it until he is ready. Through a mutual decision, we are no longer sexually active. I know that I am not guilty of the sin of fornication, but what about our still living together. I believe that it would be wrong to dissolve the relationship. I have a step daughter and three beautiful grandchildren that I do not want to loose. I have prayed about this for years and one time I heard the Lord say "Be Still" I am not sure about my salvation even though I am a born again Christian who loves Jesus and tries to follow him. I would appriciate opinions from born again Christians. Thanks
P.S. My spouse is not a believer.

do you really want to be saved?and know where your soul will spend eternity?or do you want to continue in blindness b/c you don't want to face the reality that life is not certain and you just might end up in the wrong place?

I dont know what it is...I get so mad when I go to chruch. I feel like every one there is pretending to be perfect. I get nothing out of the sermons. I love God and believe Jesus died on the cross for my sins. I just feel like the church is making a mockary of him. It's not just my church it's all churches. It's the polictics, money, numbers, potlucks and picnics. It's getting questioned by everyone if you didnt show up to sunday school...I feel like they think they will be saved by the church not Jesus. How can we make a difference in this world if we spend all week in a building? I find it all very selfish. I need some words of encourgment. My husband is so disappointed by my attitude and I cant seem to pull my self out of this rut.
