going to be raptured instead be left behind? I say while we have breath in out bodies repent as God will forgive us. And that is awsome, knowing we are all sinners and a fall short everyday that if we ask God will forgive if we mean it. That is sooooooo awsome. Who on here what do do more for God than what you do? God says just come as you are and that is true love. Who is looking forward to the soon rapture? I am so much. God bless

a. Will you please e-mail me back when you have received my e-mail?
b. Will you please e-mail me back when you receive my e-mail?

I mean that I want a person to e-mail me back after receiving my e-mail. But I'm a bit confused which sentence is correct.

I often hear a sentence like, "I won't go out when it rains." In this example, after "when," the present form is used , but not future form.

Is it wrong to say, "Will you please e-mail me back when you will have received my e-mail?"

Thank you for your help! :-)

I was raised Catholic, but it never fit right for me. I don't believe in confession; doesn't seem right that God can hear my every prayer, but someone else needs to hear everything wrong I've done. I don't believe that the Bible is literally the direct text spoken by God. It's been hand written over many languages for centuries and by politically motivated figures many times. I do beleive that the Bible is a very important text, it has stories that should guide us all in a life of moral strength. I don't support the split in religion and science, I think the formation of the universe (big bang) and evolution are correct, but are the work of God. So is there any religion/denomination out there that holds similar beleifs? And if you don't agree with 100% of everything in your faith, does that make it wrong or hippocritical to practice that faith?

Too many people claim that "proof" for evolution must be taken on faith alone.

Would these people assume that a forensics report must be taken on faith alone? Would they ignore the evidence given by the experts and just accept that the result was correct?

For example, if they were told that a hair belonged to a particular person would they just accept that on faith or would the fact that the forensics expert had studied it and deduced, based on the evidence, that it came from said particular person, have any relevance to their acceptance of the information?

How many people do you think would still go to church if they took down all the Andy Gibbs looking Jesus depictions, and put up more historically correct Jesus'; a middle eastern looking man?

World.

Specially when all info about Usama Bin Laden is totally one sided, and we don't know the truth, unless we listen other side of the story.

We Muslims are supposed to let confirm the info. before believing it as true.

Unless that time I believe He is innocent, Do you agree with me.

As I don't trust Bush'ism, as true and sincere with the humanity.
USA seems trading on the name of Bin Laden, specially keeping him as alive, earning money from friends and its enemies. By creating a situation of threat and fear, so that Americans pay whatever the price might be, to be save from so called land mark of fear.

I was raised in the church, after which I started to question a lot about religion. Why god would pick just one, I took jobs that put me up close and personal with human suffering. Now, I have a daughter that is going to church with her father. (we are split) She told me from the back seat that I needed Jesus in my heart to go to heaven. The same thing I was exposed to as a child, the concept of heaven and hell. Trust me, it did not do me any favors growing up.
I ran across this quote from a book tonight..
I am now convinced that children should not be subjected to the frightfulness of the Christian religion. ... If the concept of a father who plots to have his own son put to death is presented to children as beautiful and as worthy of society's admiration, what types of human behavior can be presented to them as reprehensible?”

I want to believe but somehow it does not make sense anymore.

Can you prove, WITHOUT the use of carbon dating or any other scientific method that the texts of the New Testament weren't written in the fifteenth century? when the first published copy of the bible(latin vulgate) 1450-1456 were printed on the Gutenburg press? Can you prove that any of the scrolls and texts and contemporary accounts weren't created in mass at that time? And that modern scholars aren't just lying about the ages of the scrolls? Sure the bible lists historical events but who is to say that the people couldnt write any of that in 1456? if you say Josephus or the council of nicea or any other contemporary source PROVE without carbon dating that they were written anytime before the 1400's. Remember you can't use science in anyway for this challenge. prove that any of these writings weren't produced at the same time with a "Past tense narrative".
Note: you cannot use the bible to prove the bible.

Couldn't he just have done it himself like he did do many other times? I have found so many verses in which god commits murder or "commands" others to do it for him. And in most verses he wants the children to be brutally murdered as well. If this was to make us fear his power, why would anyone want to love or worship something out of fear? Its like he says, love me or I will kill your family. That doesn't seem very god like at all.

It's not a terrible disability, but it does make my life a little harder sometimes. It's very rare that any public works project or manufacturer take people like me into consideration at all when designing things. When you find out what it is, I bet you'll think I'm just a whiner. But think about this: how often are things color-coded? Ever park on the blue level of a parking garage? Press the red button to stop, green to start? Things like that don't make my life easy. When people find out I'm colorblind, they even 'test' my colorblindness by asking me what color things are. If you have ever done that, don't you see that it would be like saying to a guy in a wheelchair "okay, see if you can tippy toe...No? Really? Okay, now see if you can go up these stairs" just for your entertainment.

How does God's identity as the "Almighty" compare to His identity as being all about beautiful love and loving reciprocation?

If he believes his followers should be martyrs, why does he hide? Is Osama bin Laden a coward? In my opinion he is a coward. I think he should put up or shut up.

The Samaritans were from a city in Palestine called Samaria.
The original word was the Hebrew word "Samavreia" and was pronounced "Sam-ar'-i-ah;" which is defined as "guardianship," in the english translation of the word.

Although the following scripture verse coined the term as "the good Samaritan" (Luke 10:29-37) the question I'm asking, is more in the line of, "What makes you personally a good Samaritan?" Don't be shy, please feel free to share your personal testimony, it's for God's glory. Amen.

This question is directed mainly to my fellow Believers in Christ, but all responses are welcome.

..that Jesus was a regular man, an intelligent and good man but not the son of God and that he might have been married or at least in a relationship with a woman and maybe had children too? I really don't want to offend people but this is what I believe, that Jesus was a man who saw injustice and tried to change sociaty (as far as I know according to the Bible he never said "I am the son of God..?) and he had followers just like Martin L King and Ghandi did.

I see the Bible more as a history book and I think we can learn a lot from it...but yet just a book

Thanx for answers and have a good day
