Hi everyone I went and got my fortune told, and it was quite accurate, what do you all think of fortune tellers and have you had any experiences that were what she told you?

She told me there was someone in my family , a female member who died, whom i never got to say bye to and I miss a lot. My Gran died, I never got to say by and I miss her to this day. My gran is the only female member of my family to have passed away.

She mentioned a man in my family who keeps telling me off, but he only wants the best for me. The only close male member of my family is my step father and he and myself cannot get along atall just now!

She told me I was in a relationship and had been feeling unsettled at the moment-true, she said my bf and I were both very stubborn and jealous of each other - true. But she told me we both have to stop acting that way towards each other.

She told me a lot more accurate stuff, no room to write it but she told me all this from looking at my left hand!

Do you feel that you can either believe the fundamental principles of your religion OR not believe them?
With so much debate amongst the different religions about whether or not this or that is a sin (premarital sex, abortion, homosexuality, gambling, divorce etc.) I wonder if it is the case that you are either all in OR all out?

We have turned into such a selfish society, that yesterday as I was just spending time w/ God, He asked me a question... And I really had to think about it... have we (as a whole) lost focus on what we should be focusing on? Are we in it just for ourselves or are we really in it because we really desperately long for a more intamate relationship with God.?...

...So ask yourself,

If God NEVER answered another prayer you prayed?

If God NEVER performed another miracle you needed?

If you only got the relationship, without ANY of the benifits...

Would you still serve him w/ the same heart and passion?

Honestly, think about it... Are you in it (this lifestyle and belief system) for the benifits? Or are you solely concerned with the relationship? Honeslty, which is more important to you?

Can you truly say, "If God NEVER EVER EVER did another thing for me, I would still love and serve him just the same."?

Praise the Lord, I trying to spread the word to my fellow Christians. I am Oneness Apostolic and have been filled with Gods precious Holy Spirit. Many Christians believe that they have been filled with Gods spirit because they say they have come to know Christ but is this what Jesus and the Apostles said in his word, Is the Gift of Tongues with Paul Spoke of the only manifestation of Tongues? No. The Gift of Tongues is not for everyone as Paul has stated in (1 Cor 12: 30) but their is also another manifestation of Tongues spoken of in the bible, this is when you first recieve the Holy Spirit. I have spoken in tongues before but yet i don't have the Gift of Tongues, how can this be? I never tryed to speak but i earnesly asked God to fill me with his Spirit and i suddenly spoke in tongues one night.

Those who disagree, please read this to see what the bible says about Recieving the Holy Spirit. IT MAY SHOCK YOU.

"Man has been here 32,000 years. That it took a hundred million years to prepare the world for him is proof that that is what it was done for. I suppose it is, I dunno. If the Eiffel Tower were now representing the world's age, the skin of paint on the pinnacle-knob at its summit would represent man's share of that age; and anybody would perceive that the skin was what the tower was built for. I reckon they would, I dunno."

Gay marriage is completly accepted and embraced in my faith. But not in others. I live in America with "freedom of religion" so why can't people in my church be legally married if other churches can?

Everything Hollywood "not the city but the industry" stands for, within many movies, music, fashion, lifestyles, sex/porn industry, is a total opposite of God's word. They are basically satanic, it seems, and glorify everything God would say no to. They are not only poisoning California, but the country as well. Also, that radiates to the world.

Sure, you can not buy into it and ignore it, as many people would say, but it isn't that easy. It's coming to a point now where people judge you ONLY on your outside appearance, and god forbid you're not up to the "Hollywood" standards, you get pushed aside. How is that Christian? Well wake up, it's happening all over!

The Music industry, okay you have talent, but most of it is drivel and the messages they spread are total BS. Fashion is perhaps the worst offender.

Actually no, sex/porn is. Playboy/Playgirl?? Countless websites?

Even something as "innocent" as comic books. Still total bs, kid stuff.

Is there an agenda!? or.

Can a man walk on water and calm the wind and the seas? Can a man raise the dead and forgive sins?
If you acknowledge Jesus and His "Works" why do you reject His "Words"? Jesus stated: "The miracles I do in my fathers name speak for me, but you do not believe because you are not my sheep. My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no on can snatch them out of my hand. My Father who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Fathers hand. I and the Father are One."

I love being a bi guy, and i wouldn't trade it for anything. But i've also had tons of fun with the guys in my troop and at camps. I know the BSA frowns on gays, and I'm not sure if it frowns on bi guys too. I'm also getting tired of pretending to be straight, and having to blow off people that think i'm gay/bi. Can anybody give me some advice, I really don't know where to turn and what to do.

do you ever stop to think of how the other side feels? Lets use gay marriage since it the topic today. How would you feel if the govt told you that even though your religion says its holy and right, the govt says its not. You are no longer allowed to be legally married. You are not allowed any civil liberties that come with being married. How would you feel? Do you ever stop to think how others feel?

I recently learned about a certain time period in a Christians life. We have learned that this thing starts when someone starts to like someone for the first time. This is a time when the person has to separate from realtionships to be closer to god. There is this guy that I like and I think that this started because he liked me , and we were wondering how the person acts while they are going through this, because during the time when we thought he was going through it he had an attitude and it seemed like he didn't want me around him. Towards the end of the school year he was his old self again and he was even nicer and a better friend. Please explain this time period, so I can understand it better.

Allah says:

"Where are those who love each other for the sake of My glory? Today I will shelter them with My shade, as there is no shade today except My shade"." (Narrated by Muslim)

The love that Allah talks about is not just limited from Muslim - to - Muslim, but it is the love for everyone - regardless of religion. I know that this is a very short hadith, but so many feelings and emotions go through me when I read it, that makes me wonder if we are loving one another as much as we can for Allah.

JazakAllah Kheir

Jesus says to go alone into a secluded place to pray. Given that he traveled around with a man to woman ration of 13 to 1, is this Jesus' way of admiting he was scared to come out of the closet?

It seems to me the allegoric mystery makes you think,
so in the end you & all the KofG within you don't stink.

Law and Odor: Pew! ... the Smell of Death (Law).
1Corinthians 15:56 Law = strength of death sting.
2Corinthians 3:7 Law = the ministration of death.
