Fellowship is essentially love."Love one another as I have loved you."

It is not arguing about doctrine. It is ok not to know. It is not ok not to love.

I was looking for the unforgivable sin, and finally I found the answer in that parable about the King who forgave two debtors. One debtor went out and also forgave his debtors, but the other debtor, took his debtor by the throat and demanded full payment. When the King heard about it, he threw that unforgiving debtor into prison.

Thought I'd share. It was bothering me. I guess we can never hold a grudge....Man, are we in doodoo...

How does one go about befriending dragons? From the only book I've read on establishing friendships with these powerful astral entities, you have to be confident and patient. But it doesn't really speak about how to make initial contact. Anyone know how? P.S., Christians, your wasting your breath. Don't tell me to give my heart to Jesus, blah blah blah, better than you have already tried.

Okay this question is a religous question. Anyone who is Christain, is supossed to be nice right? Well than how come so many judge aethiests, and other religions,? God didn't do that did he? And aetheists are only thinking logically right? I mean, is there really an almighty one who can create an entire civilization in seven days? And if he knows the future, how come he couldn't see Adam and Eve eating from the tree that causes us to sin? I don't believe human s evolved from apes, and I don't know really, but I mean, other than the bible, is there actuall proof God exists? And how, just how do you know that someone didn't make the bible up? There is only one religion that is true...And if you follow the wrong one...What happens?

It seems like every week I meet new people, especially married men, who I would bet my last dollar are gay. Yet, they appear to be spending a great deal of time and energy attempting to convince everyone (including themselves) they are straight.

It seems like a no no at the ones I have been to. I mean I know that drinking is often thought to be involved or gambling, but why can't you play them at a holiday church party? I feel like drinking and gambling or whatever the reason, could be done with any game or recreation. Is there a logical explanation for that? What is the big deal?

I was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii and I spend most of my summers living in Las Vegas. The enivornment I grew up in are very urbanized with tall builidings and lots of foriegners from all over the world living with me.

I thought about moving to the South because the people are more virtuous and may help me grow as a better Christian. Lots of people from the cities are very superficial, even the church folks are all about looking good and having connections to get what they want regardless of right and wrong sometimes.

Finally, I am not a White, Black, or Hispanic man. I am an Asian man that is very patrioitic so I assume that I have this in common with lots of folks in the South. I also love blonde and brunette women that loves God and not very much into my own Asian heritage.

So Southerners! Will I have a wonderful time living in the Southern States for virtuous people and hospitality or will I have a miserable time because I am NOT from the South and not White?

John 3:14-17 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)
Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society


14Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.[a]

16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[b] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

4000 yrs ago (im guesstimating here) civilised people believed in the Greek gods or the Egyption doggies and pussys. Now people believe in Abe's God, Noah's ark, and some people even think that the Earth is only 4000 yrs old cause that's wat their holy book sais. Now thats indoctrination...so amusing, hah, ha! ANyway bk to my point in another 4000 yrs do you think our successors in life will believe in different, novel religions? Maybe the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster will be the dominating religion, announcing holy wars, throwing their spaghetti hoops with their noodly appendages at their agressors, say...the house of the Pizza monster

I am not Atheist, just to clear that up, I am Agnostic, but I also get tossed into this stereotype. Why is it that most people think that just because someone is Atheist, they have no morals? Just because you don't believe in God does not mean that you can't be a good person and spread goodwill. Am I wrong?
