going home to glory what would you say? Knowing you have loved ones that are lost and are not saved would you stay and try to plant seeds or go home if God hgave you a choice between the two. Me I would go home in a flash. I chose Jesus above anything. I would not miss anything in this life. I would go straight home.So christains I wounder how big your mansions are? If God told me tonight he was going to take me home I would not tell anyone and just jump up and down with joy. I know God will not give me a choice, but if he did I am home. And if God said he would take me tonight like I said I would just go home without anyone knowing. They will find out sooner or later. So what would you chose this sinful world or your mansions that Jesus has prepared for you?

Would it make a difference if you saw them magically make a coin appear behind your ear?
Would it make a difference if they vanished in a puff of smoke and appeared behind you?
Would it make a difference if they levitated above the ground?

If a person told you they were a god and performed impossible acts right in front of you, would you believe them?

Shouldn't we live in a society wear children shouldn't be forced to be taught that we "evolved" from monkeys?

They just excommunicate anyone who makes them look bad.

They say "he wasnt a real Christian".

Most Christians end up excommunicating nearly everyone in history.......... and even the ones who are making history.

The "New Testament": Pagan revenge

Between G-d's own miracles and the Jewish teaching of His Word, the pagan priesthoods of Egypt, Greece, and Rome were steadily losing their power over the gentile populations. They decided to fight back by creating a new religion, one that would claim to be the fulfillment of the Hebrew "Old Testament," yet would bring back the pagan lies in a new disguise.

Thus the "New Testament" was written, in Greek rather than Hebrew, and attached to the original Hebrew scriptures to try to change their meaning back toward paganism.

The "New Testament" tried to change G-d from One, as in the Hebrew scriptures, into a "trinity" as in Egyptian cults or the eastern religions of Hinduism and Buddhism. It described Jesus as G-d in a human body, like the pagans always described Pharoah and other wicked kings. It declared G-d's Law to be a "curse" that no one can truly obey, announced that there must be a "mediator" between G-d and man, and pretended that salvation could now be achieved outside the Law.

To blind the gentile nations, the "New Testament" also warned people not to learn from the Jews, declaring that Israel no longer possessed the true, complete Word of G-d.

In the Bible, the book of Daniel warned of an evil power--a false religion--that would believe in the true "G-d of fortresses... plus a god its fathers did not know." This religion would "speak bizarre words about the Most High, wear out the holy ones (the Jews), and plan to change the festivals and the religious Law."7 The Christian Church has indeed replaced Passover with Easter (the pagan holiday of Astarte and Ishtar) and Hanukah with Christmas (the pagan winter holiday).

did God ever say that all are welcome in heaven? no. just those who love him,accept him and obey him. i will not lighten up and preach only the "love" gospel. there has to be accountability as well. non believers need to get off the "love" abusing. they overuse that word and they do not even believe in God

I am a bisexual.
I have a girlfriend whom I love very much.
My mother is a lesbian.
We have been serving the lord since we were born.
No matter what anyone says, I cannot deny the feeling that I have towards women.
I can't help feeling this way yet people say that I cannot get into heaven.
I want to go to heaven but I keep thinking I cant if I feel this way.
So if I cant help it...God must want me to go to hell?

The father of the HOLOCAUST in Germany :::

Did I not tell you earlier that a Jew is such a noble, precious jewel that God and all the angels dance when he farts?---Martin Luther (Germany)

“What then shall we Christians do with this damned, rejected race of Jews?
First, their synagogues should be set on fire, and whatever does not burn up should be covered or spread over with dirt so that no one may ever be able to see a cinder or stone of it. And this ought to be done for the honour of God and of Christianity, in order that God may see that we are true Christians.
Secondly, their homes should be likewise broken down and destroyed.
Thirdly, they should be deprived of their prayerbooks and talmuds in which such idolatry, lies, cursing and blasphemy are taught.
Fourthly, their rabbis must be forbidden under threats of death to teach anymore.” – Martin Luther

“If I find a Jew to baptize, I shall lead him to the Elbe bridge, hang a stone around his neck, and push him into the water, baptizing him with the name of Avraham!.. I cannot convert the Jews. Our lord Christ did not succeed in doing so; but I can close their mouths so that there will be nothing for them to do but to lie upon the ground.” – Martin Luther

“I hope I shall never be so stupid as to be circumcised; I would rather cut off the left breast of my Catherine and of all women.” --- Martin Luther

“If we are to remain unsullied by the blasphemy of the Jews and not wish to take part in it, we must be separated from them and they must be driven out of the country.” – Martin Luther

Jesus did not call them Abraham's children, but a "brood of vipers" [Matt. 3:7]. Oh, that was too insulting for the noble blood and race of Israel, and they declared, "He has a demon' [Matt 11:18]. Our Lord also calls them a "brood of vipers"; furthermore in John 8 [:39,44] he states: "If you were Abraham's children ye would do what Abraham did.... You are of your father the devil. It was intolerable to them to hear that they were not Abraham's but the devil's children, nor can they bear to hear this today.------Martin Luther

Learn from this, dear Christian, what you are doing if you permit the blind Jews to mislead you. Then the saying will truly apply, "When a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into the pit" [cf. Luke 6:39]. You cannot learn anything from them except how to misunderstand the divine commandments...------Martin Luther

St. John Chrysostom: “I know that many people hold a high regard for the Jews and consider their way of life worthy of respect at the present time... This is why I am hurrying to pull up this fatal notion by the roots ... A place where a whore stands on display is a whorehouse. What is more, the synagogue is not only a whorehouse and a theater; it is also a den of thieves and a haunt of wild animals ... not the cave of a wild animal merely, but of an unclean wild animal ... When animals are unfit for work, they are marked for slaughter, and this is the very thing which the Jews have experienced. By making themselves unfit for work, they have become ready for slaughter. This is why Christ said: “as for my enemies, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them and slay them before me’ (Luke 19.27).”



///

Therefore be on your guard against the Jews, knowing that wherever they have their synagogues, nothing is found but a den of devils in which sheer self-glory, conceit, lies, blasphemy, and defaming of God and men are practiced most maliciously and veheming his eyes on them.---------Martin Luther


Moreover, they are nothing but thieves and robbers who daily eat no morsel and wear no thread of clothing which they have not stolen and pilfered from us by means of their accursed usury. Thus they live from day to day, together with wife and child, by theft and robbery, as arch-thieves and robbers, in the most impenitent security.
--------Martin Luther


However, they have not acquired a perfect mastery of the art of lying; they lie so clumsily and ineptly that anyone who is just a little observant can easily detect it.

But for us Christians they stand as a terrifying example of God's wrath.-----Martin Luther


...but then eject them forever from this country. For, as we have heard, God's anger with them is so intense that gentle mercy will only tend to make them worse and worse, while sharp mercy will reform them but little. Therefore, in any case, away with them!-------Martin Luther


However, we must avoid confirming them in their wanton lying, slandering, cursing, and defaming. Nor dare we make ourselves partners in their devilish ranting and raving by shielding and protecting them, by giving them food, drink, and shelter, or by other neighborly acts..------Martin Luther



If we wish to wash our hands of the Jews' blasphemy and not share in their guilt, we have to part company with them. They must be driven from our country.-----Martin Luther


They [rulers] must act like a good physician who, when gangrene has set in proceeds without mercy to cut, saw, and burn flesh, veins, bone, and marrow. Such a procedure must also be followed in this instance. Burn down their synagogues, forbid all that I enumerated earlier, force them to work, and deal harshly with them, as Moses did...

If this does not help we must drive them out like mad dogs.----Martin Luther


Martin Luther: [ in his last sermon, four days before he died, ] called for practical measures: burn their synagogues, confiscate all books in Hebrew, prohibit Jewish prayers, force them to do manual labour, and drive them out of Germany.

I'm not gay but why do they care about other people being gay. Is it really affecting them? Why can't they just get over the fact that some boys do boys and some girls do girls? It happens! Trying to take away their rights isn't going to stop them from "fornicating".

Why do they think that the whole world should be Christian?

if god is all loving, all caring, why in the heck is my life so rubbish?? I mean come on, i got the lowest possible amount of grades in secondary "high" school......get nothing but stick off people...i feel stupid.....and no before you ask i don't have low self-esteem. i had jobs and apartments and i lost them all through other peoples faults. i haven't enough money to start a career, in order to do that i need a job (which i can't get) to save money!! i also have a disastrous love life and no girl will go near me at all (apparently i'm not ANYONES type) and all attentions are focused on my other friends instead.......

if god really cared for me he would catch me a break right now....i am a good person, all i want is a happy, eventful life!!

I'm not an avid church-go-er but my best friends family are quite religious to the point of "a ned flanders family" and seem to get all the best things in life handed to them.

clearly god hates me......
