I have done my best since I started hanging out with you kids to show what Christianity really stands for. I have admitted when I have no satisfactory answer for questions.

I have supported my stances with both the Bible and with practical examples from real life.

I have dropped the heavy end down on dozens of other Christians when their behavior was totally out of line.

I have never claimed that I am right and everyone else is wrong; I have actually acknowledged the undeniable fact that someone out there has to be wrong.

This last idiot has just started making me feel a little self-conscious. There's a few of us on here who really got our acts together, but too many of the people claiming to be Christians are like dear Brother Sam.

Have I done a good enough job of showing that not ALL Christians are like that? Are there enough of us here to make you all think that there's some good left in Christianity?

The child is 13 years old. Would you say "ВЫ" or "ТЫ" when meeting the child for the first time?

I know which one is more polite, obviously, but since it's a child, I'm not sure that the formal is necessary.

I was baptised yesterday and it was cold winter. When I was in the water, my eyes were opened and after emerging I was shivering. However, I still feel the same as before as though nothing has changed. But my church believes that baptism is necessary for salvation and that in Romans 6 it is said baptism 'puts you onto Christ'. However I was plagued with severe doubt and emotional distress after my baptism as I didn't experience happiness and peace. Does anyone know what's going on? Should I be rebaptised?

PS: I was very nervous before my baptism.

Then in the end, will choose which he wants to keep and don't? Isn't that a little bit mean of him? Like a question I saw, why does he want us to worship him? Is he a vain God? He created us so he can be worshiped and if we don't then he will throw us in Hell?? Why would He do that? Why not create us all good, banish Hell? I mean just create Heaven in the first place? Not let people suffer. Not let people have wars. WHY WHY WHY????

"I am the all encompassing, transcendental creator, designer, fabricator and architect of the entire universe, a universe trillions of stars deep.

And I care intimately and personally about your sex life.

So much, in fact, that I am prepared, in the event that you put your penis in the wrong place at the wrong time or with the wrong person or touch it with the wrong hand, to use my omnipotence, my endless reservoir of power, that divine power of creation and destruction that emanates from me unceasingly, to ensure that you are tortured miserably by the blackest and most stinging of all flames forever and ever after you have died.

Furthermore, no matter how upright a life you live, I am prepared to send the same black flames upon you if I am not paid exactly the amount of lip service, praise, and fervent belief in me that I demand, and I even have the taunting audacity to make this threat without even extending the simple courtesy of making my existence obvious.

P.S.: I love you."

I was told she was the daughter of a fisherman whose father was caught at sea in a typhoon and in an unprecedented moment of enlightenment she walked across the stormy sea to her fathers’ boat where the men were at the edge of hopelessness and calmed the sea. She lived out the rest of her life humbly without further astonishments. She didn’t like to discuss what happened. The translator had a difficult time with my questions and may have skipped or misunderstood much of what was said.

The Hamas rulers of the Gaza Strip are pressuring local Christians to either become Muslims or leave the area, according to Palestinian officials who spoke to Middle East Newsline.

The charge comes less than a week after reports revealed that Gaza's top female academic had been abducted and forced to convert and marry a Muslim man.

Sana Al Sayegh, who was born a Christian, remains the dean of the Science and Technology Faculty at Palestine University in Gaza City. Her Hamas-affiliated university colleagues were reportedly behind her abduction and forced conversion.

In a further sign of Hamas' intent to create an Islamic state in Gaza, the group has offered to reduce prison sentences by one year for any inmates who grow a beard in compliance with Islamic law and memorize at least five chapters of the Koran.

A mere 2,000 Christians live in the Gaza Strip amid a Muslim population of 1.5 million. When Hamas seized control of the area in June, one of the group's leaders warned that local Christians would have to submit to strict Islamic law.

"For it is impossible to restore again to repentance those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they then commit apostasy, since they crucify the Son of God on their own account and hold him up to contempt.. For if we sin deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful prospect of judgment, and a fury of fire which will consume the adversaries." (Heb 6:4-6;10:26-27 RSV).

Do you believe this quote or is it customary to turn a blind eye to it, since it doesn't fit with what one is taught openly in church? And sinning deliberately means for you to do it, there is no excuse, even if it is in your nature, you had a choice not to. This saying seems to convey that those who are followers of Y'Shua are enlightened enough to have evolved their lower nature.

The "secret language of suggestion" of this world is the language of deceit - saying not what it means - but what it would "like" you to believe.
Therefore lies and evil grow "fat" upon our self-deceit and our unwillingness to face reality; they draw their strength from our folly which we cannot see. The Truth would cut away the folly . Flattery, lies and slyness are needed to flatter us into upholding our pretenses and "false virtues"-to which we blindly cling in order to escape the "shame" of the Truth which we cannot bear.
Will there be a day when the reverse is true ?
