Your nation anthem makes a big deal of the flag being a symbol of freedom and bravery. It gets desecrated often (most news stations have covered images of this happening). Does it still mean anything to anyone?

Lets say God and Jesus existed. We'll treat this the way Christian theology tells it, that God the Father sent his Son to atone for the sins of mankind. Let me rephrase John 3:16 a couple different ways without the piety. The Creator screwed up so rather than take personal responsibility he used his son as a scapegoat. A man gets fired from his job, so in anger he pushes his son in front of a speeding car. Romanticizing the language doesn't change the nature of the crime. Done by a god or human it is the same morality. So the question is is it the same morality or do you not judge god in the same way so it is "ok" that he did it?

S Scripture question?
i wanted to know if it actually says in the bible that the order goes god,then spouse, then child and if you can give me the actual scripture please? i am a christian i am just not good with finding scriptures. my parents love to throw this out at us. for example my stepdad said today hed rather take my mom on cruises and buy her jewlery then buy stuff for his kids. dont get me wrong we arent lacking in clothes and such i was just curious if this is true... if it is they certainly follow it. always putting themselves above us to make us feel inferior not in age but as human beings. and im not some whiney brat, i am 17 and work hard and buy a lot of my own stuff.. just curious. thanks for the help

Our only hope is in God's mercy. When we seek forgiveness, we must recognise that we do not deserve it and therefore cannot demand it. Our appeal must be for God's love and mercy, not for his justice. Although we cannot demand forgiveness, we can be confident that we have received it because God is gracious and loving and wants to restore us to Himself.

lets say, thousands of years ago when Gods where plentyful and ppl had trouble in their lives ,they would go and ask for help from these Gods. some other ppl realized that these unfortunate folks left a token of appreciation to their beloved Gods, and capitalized on this , slowly but successfully they cashed in on this! as time went on, they came up with the Idea to have one huge God ,the one that could make your life wonderful but the prize went up! not only did your tokens of apreciation go higher, but laws of what and how where thrown in as well, for more power for those who where running the show! up until today these capitalists are the most powerful and richest ppl on earth. Their conspiracy worked and ppl are paying their hard earned money to the churches and oraganizations in return for a blessing of something that was made up!

caould you agree that this might not be far fetched????

It's been a while since I have seen a mormon commecial but there are several points they always forget to mention. I wonder why. This would be a great commercial if it went something like this:

(First Joseph Smith would have to be introduced)
"This is our beloved Prophet who restored our gospel. He says he has more to boast about than any other man. He had many beautiful wives and was a Master Mason. He wrote the Book of Mormon by transcribing golden plates. He did this by placing them in his hat and reading them with a seer stone.

(Now Jesus has to be introduced)
This is Jesus. He is the brother of Lucifer. If you are completely obediant you can become a God and reside with Him in the Celestial Kingdom.

That should get plenty of converts shouldn't it?

For a while I have been confsed on the definition of both of these terms sooo I figured I might as well ask an unbiased group of people YOU GUYS!!!

I dont believe in any heavenly body, god, buddah, satan (i do think the idea of him is very cool), etc.
I think all religions that believe in heavenly bodies are strange.
However I dont believe in the Big Bang (i do believe in evolution, somewhat) and I believe in ghosts.
the twisted mind of a 16 year old girl is a strange place, so do u mind lending me your insight on the complications of my mind. PLEASE AND THANK YOU ;)

The reason I have asked all of these questions about my faith today seems to be that Satan is putting doubt and unbelief in my mind today. This comes directly after I have been studying the Bible diligently everyday for the past few weeks at home, going to church and participating in a women's Bible study at my church. His attacks are very strong to me today with all of this doubt. I know that I am to have faith and to not be double minded. Can anyone else attest to strong attacks from Satan after seeking the Lord Jesus with all their heart? I'd love to know. Thank you.

Jesus was in a mystic trance on the cross(stopped all life airs in the body, that is why they didn't have to break his legs, because he so called died so quick). He was not in the cave because he went out in his body and went on preaching in other lands. Read Gospel of the Nazirenes. Tells all. That makes more sense to me. Who is sincer enough to question this Higher truth???
