This is what Jesus said “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.” Mark 1:15
You have to repent!
Without repentance of sin you will not be saved.

He who covers his sins will not prosper, But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy. Proverbs 28:13

Jesus is the one who said repent and believe.

If you only believe and not repent you have a demon faith.
You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! James 2:19

If you are very strongly opposed to abortion, and think its murder, think about this. Every time a male ejaculates there are 100 million sperm, that will all die, except for one, thats one hundred million cells, that can produce a human life, and every month a female goes with out getting pregnant she loses an egg, another chance at a human life. So my real question is, will you put out 100 million crosses, every time you ejaculate?

....is there not enough faith or strength to believe in other gods?

If your belief is so strong to cause you to cling to your god on faith alone, then why is it not strong enough to acknowledge the existence of other gods using the same "faith and belief" system that causes your god to exist? Is faith unidirectional?

Stop. Read those last two questions again out loud.

A simple "my god told me so" or " the bible says so" is not an answer.

Seriously people: If your God exists on the basis of your faith, and your faith alone, then why do you not have enough faith to extend to other religions who believe as vehemently in the existence of their god as you do about yours.

If you maintain that your god is the only one that exists and that others do not (or are false), then faith is unidirectional. Can that part of your unidirectional thought that denies other gods be called "the tiny atheist trying to escape"?

Or is baptism what we do in obedience to God? Can we be saved by a work we did ourselves?

I was reading that Jehovah's Witnesses believe that 144,000 people will rule with God in Heaven. And that all others will live in paradise on earth one day.

This is generally not believed by mainstream Christians (protestants, catholics, anglicans, orthodox, etc)

Yet the number '144,000' is in the Bible.

Can someone tell me where this number appears, and what it means? Does it really refer to the number of people that God will take with him? If not, then what does it mean?

This is based on the Christian Bible. Is there considerable Biblical evidence that Christ did have a pre-existence? What are some prophecies? Was Jesus from Heaven first or was He born on earth? I believe He came from Heaven.

And if so, what is God symbolism for? Despite the literal questionability of the bible, do you think these are good analogies for certain elements of mankind's societies or is being literally correct more important?

as I am packing my goods into the car trunk ,two young men came greeted me and told me they where Mormons! they told me they where greeting ppl and educating them on their religion , nothing more! I told them with tact that I would not be interested in their religion and because I was an Atheist. they where very sweet about it and said if I would ever change my mind I could contact the nearest church for Info! they also said I was the nicest person they had met today(lots give them crap) and shook my hand and that of my son with big fat smile on their face! they wished me peace and health and told me God bless! they waved and went on to the next ppl!
are Mormons christians?? - If they are they have to be the nicest christians on the planet!

I've ALWAYS believed in God. I know He got me out of some very rough situations I'd gotten myself into. But I'd always been I guess "luke warm" with my faith.

Well recently something changed in my heart. Very drastically. I no longer drink, I quit cussing and I feel very strong in my feelings to devote my life to God. Not to sell all my things, but to be open about it and to talk about Him. I often find myself just scared and I even cry. I have no idea why either. Something in me has changed.

My question is, is there anyone (Pastor's in particular) who can guide me?

Thanks

God bless ;)

This is a serious question not me trying to offend any homosexuals. I know a three lesbians ,two in a relationship with each other, and the other single, and one flamboyant gay man. one of the girls in the lesbian couple is very 'normal' (if that is the right word, if not i apologise)and the other is very masculine. The gay man is always talking in that annoying high pitched voice and drawing out his words. My issue here is, why do some homosexuals feel that they have to make a point of being gay? why not just go about like everyone else. I am aware that straight men do it as well with their drunken bragging about sex, but i just see it more in gay men.

I found a CD in a museum shop that had 1920s and 30s music. I really like some of the songs, especially The Andrew Sisters "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen" from the 30s, and "Do Do Do" by Gertrude Lawrence, as well as "My Blue Heaven" by Gene Austin. I try to expand my musical horizons.

I work at an EXTREMELY fashionable clothing store which of course does not sell clothes for overweight people. Today some ladies of CONSIDERABLE GIRTH came in and were rather DISTURBED that we did not have anything remotely close it their sizes. I explained to them that we simply do not carry sizes for METABOLICALLY CHALLENGED individuals. Now let me tell you what, these gals were EXTREMELY upset that I referred to them as METABOLICALLY CHALLENGED. I thought that was the correct term these days, I mean I didn't call them FAT or CHUNKY or anything. My boss told me I could have said a lot worse and told me not to worry about it. What is the correct term for our overweight friends?

Please note, I am 16 years old and rather spoiled.

Thank you and good day.

"Blessed children, though you wander love and depraved. Jesus loves you, you shall be saved..."

See, I think if we, Christians, of all faiths start saying that instead of condemning non-believers, they would be more open to the church. Not nesscessarily accepting of the church and what we believe, but they wouldn't really have the stereotype of Christians constantly damning them to Hell and judging them...right?

Shouldn't we do what Jesus said and spread the good word, but not in a forceful way? I think this would be a good way. Make it like a national saying...like Mormons have "choose the right" and stuff like that...(I am not sure of other sayings, I only know that cause my friend says it all the time.)

This could be like in the late 90's...the W.W.J.D bracelets and stuff...everyone knew that saying and knew about the saying. But instead of just asking "What would Jesus do?" we would be spreading His word in a peaceful, not forcing way...
