I took a class in College about the book of Acts. I remember how it was the second part of a two part series which Luke was writing (the first one being the gospel of Luke). I also remember my professor explaining how since Acts was the second part, Luke may have had to shorten it since the papyrus (or whatever it was that he was using to write ont) was expensive and he was running out of room, as he's already written the gospel of Luke prior to wrting the Acts of the apostles. My question is, has anyone heard anything similar regarding Luke having to shorten/perhaps paraphrase a lot of the book of Acts b/c he had limited space to write on? If so, could you please give me a source?

Given the state of the world, if there is indeed an omnipotent being who is responsible for creation, then it seems as if this being does really like us all that much.

Under what circumstances did it come about / get translated?

What made it so offensive a gospel?

I do not believe in a god or heaven or hell. I can't tell anyone I know because I live in the Bible belt and they would crucify me. I was just wondering how scary is it to think that when you die that’s it. Nothing; finished; done; end. It scares the hell out of me. Also I wish nothing more for there to be a heaven. That would be great. I just can't believe something like that.



P.S. I don't want a debate I just want to know if it scares the hell out of people.

was very open around me. She would be nude all the time. She would invite me to watch her play with herself. Even wanted me to watch her doing it with girls and guys. Also wanted to compare our boobs in front of a mirror. This was kinda wild but very odd to me. Anybody know why she was always acting like that??? She says it was 4 my education but its just odd to me. Thank you so much!!

I used to manage to kill every plant I owned. I love plants! Finally learned to only keep those that are semi-easy to care for. One day hubby and I will get out of the apartment and into a home of our own - and I can't wait to try my hand at outdoor gardening.

I have great respect for the guy, and while I don't agree with all his conclusions and approaches, I think he does a lot of good. That said, a number of folks on here have commented that he is perhaps a bit harsh on the more "harmless" beliefs out there. Do you agree?

There is no such thing as employer-employee loyalty any more. I remember the days when you started a good job with a good employer, worked your way up and stayed there pretty happy for a long time, both of you enjoying the benefits of the relationship. My record is 13 years back in NJ. How about you?

Can you think of something that you once never thought you'd change your standpoint on...

But did, and now you think back and wonder where the heck you used to get your reasoning from??

(It can be anything at all!)

I was looking for aword for female or feminine that could be used as the name of a ship in my Thesaurus and underneath feminine it had weakness. Isn't that sexist?

For the very first time. It was a lovely time. I was welcome and even though I just wore a pair of jeans and a t shirt and lots of the girls and others were very smart. I got invited after the church to have some coffee and introduced me to lots of others and then even i got invited a long to a familys house for roast dinner yesterday. It was so friendly. They invited me around whenever I like and though i shouldnt intrude Its lovely to know. I even also am to go to chiore group tonight at 6 a clock and sing and meet new friends.

I am all alone usually cos i left my foster house and i never met mum or dad..and im 16 so its nice that people care. I was afriad to go cos people were saying no its a cult, but i dont think it was. And they told me jesus does love me and not hate me like i thought.

thank you to the people who told me to go i loved it.

I have learned bigger churches pay this, even mainstream denominations. Many pastors even specifically request a salary of at least $70,000+ I have heard.

In a society with so much poverty, and a difficult economy do pastors really need to be paid this much?

I know of one pastor of a mainstream denominational church in a large city (Southern Baptist I believe it was) that makes over $200,000, and drives a Mercedes-Benz.

Is there something not wrong and materialistic about this? In a society with poverty, in a world where 30,000 children die a DAY from poverty-related conditions (Disease, Starvation, etc.)

For some reason I feel like ministers are particularly accountable for at least trying to be less worldly than others, living by example if they can, am I wrong?

I don't mean to be fake or try to be perfect, but there seems to be something wrong with this.
