I've recently been on a few dates with a guy. From the moment we met, the sparks were flying and I felt really good about him. I believe that he felt the same. However, I'm confused about the signals he's sending. Does he want to pursue a long term relationship or not? How do I know where this relationship is headed?

Why won't it be like "happy birthday", "happy new year", or "happy thanksgiving", "happy valentine's day", "happy easter" and so on...?

In the bible God in wisdom has instructed you to test all things by the scripture of God. And to test a matter by much prayer fasting and search out the matter in the word of God. Which all would consider wisdom. That being the case. Have you done that in reguards to your faith?
Long before the catholic or any other church was established God had a plan for the slavation of the human race. That salvation plan is called the Gosple. As God is God and to him belongs all the Glory he has to become the actualy person of salvation and he did that in the from of his son the lord Jesus Christ. This man overcame all temptation and sin was took captive and Christ became our advocate and high priest before God the father for all times and he became our one high priest. He alone now stands before God on behalf of man. Setting our prayers right and also praying for us. To him alone has this function been given. No earthly priesthood remains in effect, his priesthood is divine as he is.

LET'S PUT CHRIST FIRST

Let's put Christ first in Christmas
For that's where he belongs,
Before the chorus of Jingle Bells
Let's praise our Lord in song.
Before the merry ho! ho! ho!
Let's have a quiet thought
Of that first Christmas long ago,
The changes that it wrought.

We know him well when we see him
A baby in a manger,
But when we see him as a man
He then becomes a stranger.
Let's praise our Lord and Saviour
As we celebrate his birth,
And when the season's over
Let us still put him first.

Mary Melton, USA

Do you agree?

God Bless You

I went shopping and parked my car, I had opened my door and was just getting my bag off the front seat when the wind blew my door open hard into the car parked next to me.
I got out and there was a DINT on the car.
I panicked but closed my door and went into the shops .. 5 mins later I freaked out, went back to my car and drove off.
I feel really terrible and its playing on my mind for not leaving my details but I just worried that I would be shafted and made to pay heaps when I dont have much money as I live alone and barely make do with my payments etc.

I always try to be an honest and good person and I give what I can to others less fortunate but I cant stop thinking about what happened.

What would you have done?
AND .. how can I right a wrong?
Do you think Karma will come back to bite coz i believe in things like this

:( i feel soo terrible and its nearly xmas

God loves the world above all,you are to take care of mother earth children.;being selfish and only taking care of yourselfs.Believing in a lie as the truth and the truth as a lie.Lost world,but thank God I never give up on fulfilling the word of God and bringing to pass the promise to the true and faithful a new paradise.What are you doing and in less then seven years where do you think you are heading?

There always seems to be an ongoing thing especially between the athiests and christians...

Personally I find it doubtful that most people's claims to be an athiest or Christian are trully legitimate...

I myself was brought up a Christian, became a athiest (and because frankly i was never convinced with either) i'm now happily in my place by being an agnostic which is the concept I truly beleive in

So what can we do to stop all these ill informed, ignorent so called 'religious' people from bogging down legitimately religious people and athiests?

I am an agnostic/atheist and I am interested in this subject.
One thing that 'coloured' my view of religion was the way a priest spoke about an aquintance of mine, who commited suicide.

I am asking because I want to find out what diverse views there are within religions.
I am not after a flame war and will not express my own opinion about any of the answers.
The 'best answer' will be based on merit, not the opinion it contains.

ok..you know the song "what if God were one of us" by joan osbourne. as a Christian i was wondering is this song blasphemous, sacreligious, or making fun of God in any way. or is it actually making a good point for Christianity as in if the person you mistreat daily were God would you act differently.. trying to make a point that you know God loves us ALL so why do we mistreat others and not help etc. i was just wondering...cuz i can see both views....and i would really like to know.
