and how did you feel. I am searching for a new church or rather my church is not the same anymore and I am wanting to praise our Lord without intimidation. I feel that if I want to raise my hands to my God I should not feel like someone is going to not like it or judge me. I love my God Jesus Christ and want the world to know that if everyone would allow Jesus in their heart they 2 can go to heaven. Jesus paid the way for us. He paid the Court Cost for all of our sins. Well I guess I said a lot just asking a question but I wanted to know if anyone else feels this way. God Bless you All. I know some of you don't go to church that are reading this ( and I am not saying that you have to just that I want to so I can praise him with others )so If you would please don't answer.

i heard from chrisitan that God knows everything . but he give us free will , and we choose to go hell , not he send us there.

but if he knows everything ,he know that many will choose hell. .

but why does he still create people who will choose hell out of sheer stubbornness or unable to be convinced or just a mistake ,while in fact , he could just deny these people from existance instead of burning them eternally.

why does he create adam and eve when he also know they will sin and causes future human inherit his sin ? and then burn these humans again ?

btw if hell burn sinner eternally , it would meant that you need eternal life , but jesus said those who believe him shall not perish but have eternal life.

so those who believe in him could also have eternal life in hell ? or that anyone could also get eternal life ?

I personally think it is totally anti-social behaviour when youths spit out their phlegm onto the pavements as they walk along. it really disgusts me. You'd never get anyone with any manners doing this. Would you ever say anything to someone you saw do it?

An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science has with God. He asks one of his new students to stand and.....

Professor: You are a Muslim, aren't you, son?

Student: Yes, sir.

Prof: So you believe in God?

Student: Absolutely, sir.

Prof: Is God good?

Student: Sure.

Prof: Is God all-powerful?

Student: Yes.

Prof: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to God to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn't. How is this God good then? Hmm?

(The student is silent.)

Prof: You can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fella. Is God good?

Student: Yes.

Prof: Is Satan good?

Student: No.

Prof: Where does Satan come from?

Student: From...God...

Prof: That's right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?

Student: Yes.

Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?

Student: Yes.

Prof: So who created evil?

(The student does not answer.)

Prof: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don't they?

Student: Yes, sir.

Prof: So, who created them?

(The student has no answer.)

Prof: Tell me, son. Do you believe in God?

Student: Yes, professor, I do.

Prof: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Have you ever seen God?

Student No, sir.

Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your God?

Student: No, sir.

Prof: Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory perception of God for that matter?

Student: No, sir. I'm afraid I haven't.

Prof: Yet you still believe in Him?

Student: Yes.

Prof: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says your God doesn't exist. What do you say to that, son?

Student: Nothing. I only have my faith.

Prof: Yes. Faith. And that is the problem science has.

Student: Professor, is there such a thing as heat?

Prof: Yes.

Student: And is there such a thing as cold?

Prof: Yes.

Student: No sir. There isn't.

(The lecture theatre becomes very quiet with this turn of events.)

Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don't have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we
can't go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold.
Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.

(There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)

Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?

Prof: Yes. What is night if there isn't darkness?

Student: You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light.....But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and it's called darkness,
isn't it? In reality, darkness isn't. If it were you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?

Prof: So what is the point you are making, young man?

Student: Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.

Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?

Student: Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the
concept of God as something finite, something we can measure.

Sir, science can't even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To
view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of it.

Now tell me, Professor. Do you teach tour students that they evolved from a monkey?

Prof: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.

Student: Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?

(The Professor shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument is going.)

Student: Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavour, are you not
teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher?

(The class is in uproar.)

Student: Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor's brain?

(The class breaks out into laughter.)

Student: Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor's brain, felt it, touched or smelt it?.....No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?

(The room is silent. The professor stares at the student, his face unfathomable.)

Prof: I guess you'll have to take them on faith, son.

Student : That is it sir.. The link between man & god is FAITH.

That is all that keeps things moving & alive.

I posted a question on here earlier today, and was a bit shocked by the responses. Not that shocked, this is the Internet (where left of left, is considered conservative).

I would like to, on top of the posted question ask. Would you be able to look someone in the face, who had a member of their family murdered and say. Sorry about your loss, but I have to go protest Michael Vick. That is a more important issue.

This should be REALLY interesting.

Just let me say, that I feel what Michael Vick did is disgusting, and he should pay the maximum price. Although I am sure many of you will twist this into me supporting him. But hey, like I said above it is the Internet. Where opinions turn into facts.

I was sitting in the waiting room at the doctor's office the other day and looking at "People" magazine. It was their annual " Hottest Bachelors" issue. I recognized the major celebrities, like Matthew McConaughey and Jake Gyllenhaal, but most of the names and faces drew a blank. My granddaughter loves those "High School Musical" movies, so I know who Zac Efron is, but for the most part of it, I'm pretty out of it. I guess I'm not the hip granny I pretend to be.

Hey! I was wondering what you guys thought of a 14 year old going on an international mission trip to Peru.

The trip would be through Brio Missions; and i would go on it next summer. You can find out about the trip here: www.briomag.com/missions

I am very very passionate about mission work and serving others. I have been on 10 mission trips out of state and think that I am ready to go international.

So what do you think? Is 14 too young?

i mean athests believe christians are people who are ignorant and christians believe atheist are people who are ignorant. when both are ignorant you can't say God doesn't exists because you can't see Him and you can't say God exists because you can't see HIm. The truth is you don't have evidence to prove neither case all we have is second hand evidence atheist say fossils are proof but where you physically there a million years ago, and the bible how many times has it been written. i lean toward the bible because if you have two eye witnesses in a court case you usually win and the bible has four for Jesus and some of the events in the bible are historically acurate.

The scientific method observes a phenomenon, forms a hypothesis to explain it, then tests the hypothesis to see if evidence bears it out, and by this process arrives at a conclusion. So-called Creation Science begins with the conclusion (God created everything) and then looks for the evidence. That is the opposite of method scientific method. Real science starts with evidence, and looks for the conclusion, not the other way around. So why call Creation Science "science"?

the words of the Bible has been changed to fit the desire of those who wrote it, look how each writer is trying to twist this verse to his own believe Matthew 19:17

first, it's very abvious Jesus has seperated himself from being God, God and Jesus are two different thing.
King James Version, Matthew 19:17
17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
http://kjvbible.org/kjvbible/B40C019.htm


2nd writer didn't like how this Verse showing God and Jesus are two different thing, so he has to write it differently than the king James version to make Jesus appear as he is God:
New American Bible:
17 He answered him, "Why do you ask me about the good? There is only One who is good. If you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments."
http://www.nccbuscc.org/nab/bible/matthew/matthew19.htm

There are proponents for the argument that having religious faith allows one to have more control over their destiny, if not their life. By the same token, there are those who believe that holding firm in our own resources allows us to have more control over our lives.

As an Atheist, I myself have contended that my life is, whether good or bad, my own to experience, and I will not abdicate the experience to an unproven deity. I have to admit, though, no matter what I seem to plan, my life appears to be very little in my control.

So which is right? Does faith in a religion give one a tool for better control over their life? Does denying religious faith allow one to have the proper grasp of life's realities in order to make better decisions and have more control? Is the issue of control even an important one to consider where questions of faith are concerned?

For thousands of years, Mythology was the religion of choice. Once the Gods could not be prooven to be existant, man moved to Christianity. People change religions all the time looking for the real thing. So my question, in the next several hundreds or thousand years, will Christianity proove itself to be a myth?

hi to everyone who has faith in his heart and people of faith, i want to ask my christian brother an honest question.

if someone worship only one God (which you called father), and accept all prophets of God included Jesus son of Mary will go to Hell? and the one who worship three heads of God (trinity- mostly they worship Jesus more than the other two heads) will go to heaven?

so if someone followed the path of all the prophet of Gods by worshiping one God will go to Hell, and those who follow the path of John will go to heaven?
