my family has relocated to a new area- and our neighbors are a pastor and his wife and family. They have visited with us and invited my family to visit their church- which we have on 3 different Sundays. This Church is a great place - it is huge - it has 3 seperate morning services for members, it has a lot of stuff going on but is very overwhelming- it has a orientation and a map to try to feel your way around in this church. I am currently looking for a church to go to, we have 4 children- 1 of whom is a 4 yr old autistic child who is not pottytrainedfully yet-- this church has no programs or can make exceptions to let our 4 yr old go in a class with his 2 yr old brother during the main morning service- he obviously cannot go in the main service with us for the sake of others and for him. any ideas on what to do next- we have expressed our concerns- but they keep calling and mailing our other children invitations to church. Help!

Bethel I’ll raise;"

1. God LOVES you and offers a wonderful PLAN for your life.

"God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life" John 3:16.

Why is it that people are not experiencing the abundant life?

2. Man is SINFUL and SEPARATED from God. Therefore, he cannot know and experience God's love and plan for his life.

Man Is Sinful
"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23.

3. Jesus Christ is God's ONLY provision for man's sin. Through Him you can know and experience God's love and plan for your life.

"God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" Romans 5:8.

4. We must individually RECEIVE Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then we can know and experience God's love and plan for our lives.

"As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name" John 1:12

All they can do is post Bible quotes? It's almost like they've been trained to use Bible Quotes as a default response when they get backed into a corner. Are they angry because they are unable to give a real answer?

if you walked into your backyard one day and found undeniable, undisputable evidence that there were no god, would you show it to anyone, keep it to yourself, or only certain people? think of the implications this would have upon the world, as well.

Since it's the religion of the sword, then they will cut you up in pieces if you refuse to convert, so "religion of pieces" seems more accurate. Your head is over here, your arms are over there.......

My friend who is black says blonde especially platinum blonde doesn't look good on non white women because asians,blacks,and hispanics mostly have dark hair and eyes so noone is going to believe it's natural.I have to agree it wouldn't even look good on me and i'm sicilian but i seen a girl who was asian with ultra bonde hair and she looked horrible serena williams is a horrible blonde also.one of my friends who is cuban went blonde she immediately went back to dark brown cause she looked bad.I know it's a free country but what's the point of bleaching your hair when noone is going to believe it's natural.

I know some people dip their pizza in ranch dressing, or they run into fences because they like the rush of excitement, etc. Do you do anything weird? Just curious.

I saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. ( Revelation 21:2)
· Jesus said,” In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. ( John14: 2-3)
· No longer will there be any curse. ( Revelation 22:3)
· There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. ( Revelation 22:5)
· He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. ( Revelation 21:4)
· The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. ( Revelation 21:18)

Hello to all in India! I am a citizen of the U.S. I have been reading about Hinduism and was wondering if a person who was not born into Hinduism can convert into the religion and if so, how does one go about it? I am also female-is there anything in particular that women have to do/not do? If I cannot convert is there a reason why? Thank you!

there it was fluttering near the lamp, it was awfull, i could hear its wings flapping and fluttering, it was incredably furry, i dashed out the room, then when i came back, i could smell a burning smell, then i saw it had flown into the open bare light bulb and frazzled itself to its detrement....
problem is im really genuinly scared of moths, i know its lay dead ontop of the lamp shade, smoke was rising from the bulb upon its impact, and i can smell thhe burning, so ive unplugged the lamp, but im worried because i want the moth out side, even though its dead, can anyone suggest how to remove the cooked moth without touching it?
