Society & Culture - 25 December 2006

i enjoy this site and learn a lot here as well as give some insight too. It amazes me at the people that ask questions and then get offended when you answer them lol. If you dont want an answer then dont ask. Furthermore if you come here just to see if everyone is going to agree with you then you didnt want to hear an opinion other than your own and shouldnt have asked in the first place. What does everyone else think? I unlike some will not get offended if you dont agree with me lol, after all hearing others perspectives is what helps us learn new things.

I see a lot of people have written that Christmas was spoiled b/c of someone who is just not that into you; as a gift to those individuals whose hearts are breaking, my advice is give yourself a gift to move on and find the one person who wants you, really wants you, calls you etc - Time for a New Year's Resolution; find a new love ..... any words or suggestions to encourage them to move on in the New Year???

Jesus is the outshining of God as predicted in the bible

Have you heard the Christmas carols-Glory to God in the highest

people argue religion-Jesus isnt a religion-Rabbi Schneerson of the orthodox who recently died and its claimed he is the Messiah-yet the Jewish scriptures prove that wrong

Micah 5:1&2 "Bethlehem though thou art small amongst the cities of Israel, out of thee shalt come forth the one from eternity."
Jesus was born there the other Rabbi was born in Europle-yet today Bethlehem is given to the Arabs -so if the Messiah came today Israel would have an arab Messiah!

Mohamad's light came from an angel-that told him to marry a little girl-at 6 years old and to pedophile her -abusing a child-which Islam says didnt happen till she was 9 years old-with modern science girls mature faster today-so in that day at 9 years old she was about a 6 year old in maturityToday.
Mohamad calls Jesus a liar -when He says He will go to the cross for the joy set before him.
Glory?

I just had a talk with my mom and she was saying that if i became independent, i could do whatever i wanted. my brother is able to do what he wants because he lives with our grandparents and he buys all his own stuff. my mom just got my sister and i a new apartment, pays all our bills, our cell phone bill, and just got me a 2006 impala. i am willing to give this all up so i can do what i want to do. i don't like the way she bosses us around and tells us what to do. if i do give all this up, i will have to get a job, pay for my own college, and pay my own bills. I was thinking about getting a job, saving for a car and staying with my grandparents(they really wouldn't mind), and going to a college that is cheaper than the one i go to now. tuition now is 20,000 and i have most of it in scholarship money and the schools i want to go to are only 6000. is this a good idea? what more would i have to do. does anyone have any advice for me.

Did God change his mind as to how to worship him?

2006-12-25 14:08:01 · 18 answers · asked by sam 2 in Religion & Spirituality

1. You shall have no God's before me
2. You shall not make for yourself a graven image
3.You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain
4. Remember the Sabath day to keep it holy
5.Honor your father and mother
6. You shall not murder
7. You shall not commit adultery
8.You shall not steal
9. You shall not lie
10. You shall not covet
and if you break these that you are subject to judgement
the bible says no murderer , no liar, no Idolater#2, no thief, no adulterer will ever enter heaven.
also did you know that is why Jesus died on the cross so that if you repent and ask Jesus to be Lord of your life you can be free of the punishment. ??????
Whether you believe in him or not you WILL stand before him on the day of judgement and every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Why not do it know??? instead of when it is too. late.?

My 8 yr old wants to donate some of his toys "to someone who lost his home and toys in the hurricane" (his words). I think this is noble and would like to honor his request. Does anyone know an organization or someone personally that needs a few toys suitable for an 8 yr old boy? Feel free to e-mail too.

What is the best advice you could give to a new Christian?

2006-12-25 14:04:27 · 42 answers · asked by aingelic1 3 in Religion & Spirituality

Seeing other Christian's answers on the meaning of the flood Noah was disturbing to think they would believe that they might escape tribulation and persecution, yes, even being put to death for the cause of Christ. I mean, it's going to be pretty rough if you can't buy or sell without the mark of the beast and if men take you up before the councils (justice systems) and you suffer for His name's sake. I mean, it would be nice if we didn't have to face persecution but I can't see as how the Lord is coming until all that He said would come to pass actually does. So, where does this no-suffering doctrine come from?

I have a friend who is gay and he likes flirting with me. Calls me stuff like "cute", touches my hands and stuff. I honestly do not mind the flirting, sometimes I enjoy the attention. I have let him know over and over that he will get no where with the flirting. I know I am pretty much attracted to girls. Am I being unfair by letting him continue or should I just ask him to stop to save possible hearth breaks and misunderstandings?

I don't believe in the bible it said God yelled and said mean things to anyone whom had different belief's, of course he just showed them what he could do and then they felt not worthy.
