MY boyfriend is thinking of becoming a priest. We have been going out for 4 years. We love each other, despite some minor problems that may occur, that we always get over them. My personal point of view is that having sex with a priest is a "bad" thing to do, because a priest should stay focused on his spiritual work. What would you do if you were me?

lately my closeness to god has been a roller coaster of ups and downs. A couple months ago there was a period of three weeks when i was so high on god, its like i was living for the first time. Slowly but surely however, I began to hang around some old friends and i once agiain put god to the side as i got into some bad things as well. So here I am now, Lonely as heck and i feel far away from him again. The friends i ditched him for are long gone over some drama nonsense and that leaves me ALONE. I'll get back "Up" again wont I? Those three weeks of perfect harmony made me believe i could never go back to my old ways, but here i am again turned from the light. Does this happen to anyone else? What helps you to get closer to god?

I mean, peole will run and hide to avoid them. Personally, I wil answer the door. I'm a Christian and know what I beleive, and have no fear that they will change what I beleive. And I don;t mind listening to them try to explain what they believe. ..But I don't know hardly anyone else that will even answer the door.

And when he gets bored or sick of us, all he'll have to do is shake us real violently, and like the picture on an "Etch-a-Sketch" we'll all just disappear.

Maybe in a "kneejerk" reaction or during a moment of weakness? If so, is that a sin???

I read about a Natural Man and it has nothing to do with worshiping nature or Gods Creation. Yet, there are those who confuse the concept of a Mother Earth as sacred, and praying for her protection and OUR home as evil. While others claim that man shall have dominion over the earth as evil and responsible for pollution and desecrating the environment. Jesus prayed in a veil of nature as did Mohammad and other biblical Prophets and earth spirituality people, could it be that radicle right religion has it wrong?

Ezekiel 18:20
The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.

James2:24
Ye see then how that by works a man is just

Matthew 19:16-17
"And behold, one came up to him, saying, "Teacher, what good deed must I do, to have eternal life?"
"And he said to him, "Why do you ask me about what is good? One there is who is good. If you would enter life, keep the commandments."
Jas 2:26
"Faith without works is Dead"

The Devil copies everything that God does but He does it in a lying manner, Since God has a Godhead then shouldn't their be a devilhead?

We believe in the Father (God), Son (Jesus), and Holy Spirit (The Spirit of God). Satan copies this concept and will decieve many During the reign of the AntiChrist. Lets see what the bible says.

John 8: 44 calls Satan "The FATHER of lies"

2 Thes 2: 3, John 17: 12 calls the Antichrist "The Son of Perdition"

1 John 4: 2-3 Talks about "The Spirit of Antichrist"

As you can see here: Father (Satan), Son (Antichrist), The Spirit of Antichrist.

Is this a coincedence, I think NOT

Satan is copying God

I got given a Bible the other day from a nice lady who knows I'm a non believer.
What passage would be the ulimate passage to read?
Is there a passage that would have a high chance of encouraging me to believe?

Does that even make sense? Does it make it harder for the holy spirit to work in your life?

with the word fo God and the prophets of God and any man who claimed to be a prophet and was not in agreement with his word nor his prophet was considered a liar.
Was Muhammad in agreement with the prophets of God and the word of God?
The books of Moses are not in agreement with the Qu'ran nor is the Gospel. The prophets of God did foretell of a Messiah who would atone for sin.

"Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the Prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

"Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven; but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven."

"For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven."
[The Bible, Mathew 5:17-20]

In fact, we know its exact size - it was 450 x 45 x 75 feet, with an approximate volume of 1,518,750 cubic feet.
How did they get this number? Very simple - it's stated in thebible.
Conservatively, there were 3500 species of mammals, 6000 species of reptiles, and 12,000 species of birds. Add this all up and you get 21,500 different species. Of course, there were two of each, or 43,000 individuals on the boat.
Now let's do some quick math: 1,518,750 divided by 43,000 is about 35 cubic feet per animal. Wow! That sounds like ample space. Wrong! It is about the size of a human coffin! (6 x 2 x 3 =36 cubic feet)
Uh, Oh! We forgot about food and water! This would take up quite a bit of space, as they were supposedly on the ark for at least 275 days. Water storage is a big problem. After all, you can't drink the salty seawater. If we figure an average of 1 quart per day for each animal, Noah would have to store away 1,263,125 gallons of course, it was raining heavily, so not.
