So, if I understand it correctly, you must be "saved" or ask for forgiveness in order to get the 'heaven.'

My ancestors (Native Americans from the Quinault tribe in Wa), did NOT have access to the Bible. Does this mean they are in 'hell'?

On fire and there was no water. Would you risk exposing yourself to pee on her and put the fire out?

Please, just Christians answer. Here is my question. A Christian friend of mine once said to me, "If you don't want Satan to know something, THINK it. Satan can't read your thoughts." My 1st reaction was, "That's not true. Of course he can." But the more I thought about it, the more I thought, this person might be right. It doesn't say in the bible either way, so we have to reason it out. And the thought that keeps coming to me is ....... if we say that Satan CAN read our minds and know our thoughts, then aren't we in fact giving him an attribute that should belong to God alone? Are we not making him out to be a god when there should only be one God. What are your thoughts on this?

Absolutely. When you write a letter, do you write the letter, or does the pen? Obviously you do; the pen is merely the instrument you use. God used men as instruments to write His "letter" to humanity. They ranged from kings to common fishermen, but the 66 books of the Bible were all given by inspiration of God. Proof that this Book is supernatural can been seen with a quick study of its prophecies.

Christianity has this as one of their trademark slogans that Jesus is God/Son of God. And that the earth was created through Jesus.

However in other religions there is a similar slogan. I can only remember Hinduism now. Can you assist me with the others please?

I think Christmas has become very commercialised and is less about the birth of our saviour Jesus Christ and more about Santa Claus, snowmen and presents. Children only think of the presents they will get (the latest computer game etc) and do not know the true meaning of Christmas. And instead of Christmas people are saying Chrimbo, what has Chrimbo got to do with Jesus Christ?

Jansenism was the alternative to jesuits in the 17th century. This alternative was not chosen but it seems to me that it has still some influence on the Catholic Church. Do you agree ?

How would the light have reached us?”

Since God made the sun, moon, and stars “to give light upon the earth” (Genesis 1:14–18), those lights would be immediately visible on earth. They fulfilled their purpose on the day God spoke them into being, because He “saw that it was good.” No doubt God also made Adam as a fully-grown man—perhaps with the appearance of being 30 years old, even though he was only minutes old. Likewise, herbs and trees were already mature and fruit-bearing, to provide a ready supply of food. That would be the case with all of His creation.

if He is as powerful as the Bible says, shouldn't it take Him just a blink of an eye to make those things happen?

shouldn't His processor be a bazillion times greater than a Dual Core Processor to think of how He wants the world to be?

The Bible has many seeming contradictions within its pages. For example, the four Gospels give four differing accounts as to what was written on the sign that hung on the cross. Matthew said, “This is Jesus the King of the Jews” (27:37). However, Mark contradicts that with “The King of the Jews” (15:26). Luke says something different: “This is the King of the Jews” (23:38), and John maintains that the sign said “Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews” (19:19).

Those who are looking for contradictions may therefore say, “See—the Bible is full of mistakes!” and choose to reject it entirely as being untrustworthy. However, those who trust God have no problem harmonizing the Gospels. There is no contradiction if the sign simply said, “This is Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews.”

What do you think?
