Why did Luther add the word "alone" to Rom. 3:28?
"man is justified by faith [alone] apart from works of the Law". Protestants believe that man is saved only by faith. But doesn't it say just the opposite in James 2:24? "You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone," and James 2:26
" . . . so also faith without works is dead,".
Why do Protestants believe in salvation sola fide?
Plus, since Luther added something to the Bible shouldn't that make him accursed as it says in Galatians 1:7-9?
". . . there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9 As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed." (KJV)
I'm not trying to answer my own question. Just trying to make you think. I'm really interested in what you have to say!

does anyone else wonder and hate how everyonce in a while christians get into this bad habit of backing up religion and god with science. when of one the main things theyre saying that most science is wrong. and whenever someone bring up some part of science that doesnt agree with religion they just say it doesnt apply.
that angers me! so much! thoughts?

For example.. Celibacy, it is true that priests who have taken a vow of celibacy often become deviant. All those suppressed sexual urges simply seem to set them up for failure or worse pedophilia... I am not saying that all people who take a vow of celibacy become deviant I am saying that it seems that supressing natural, instinctive needs of the individual have a negative impact on the overall mental health of the individual. Just recently there was a question about this and the person really seemed to be suffering from such repression. I dont believe that sex is wrong, I believe that it is natural and normal and that healthy, sexually mature individuals benefit physically, emotionally, spiritually and mentally from responsible sexual activity. Why does religion look down on such a positive thing? If you love someone why should you deny what comes naturally? Why would a creator instill these urges into us humans and then tell us to deny them? it makes no sense..

....the Church would consist of this: Music , Meditation, Prayer.
No sermon. No dogma. No one tries to force their personal beliefs down anyone's throat We all meet quietly in one room, and focus on creating an atmosphere of Live and Let Live. Would it - could it - actually work ? Is it possible?
(Btw - I'm stone cold sober, and I hav'nt smoked that stuff in years, k ?:) So Whattya think ?

Do you have something (like a ritual) that you have to do? My friend has to do the sign of the cross twice then kiss his hand and touch a rosary before he starts to drive. What are your freaky habits?

Let me ask a question that is more food for thought than anything. I know I am about to be ridiculed but I can live with that. On to the question.
When God created Adam and Eve, He created them full grown. They were never babies. They were created as adults with a certain age. So although they appeared to be say 25 they were actually only 1. Could He have done the same with the Earth. Could the Earth only be a couple thousand years old but God created it older the same as He did with Adam and Eve?

I praise Jesus for this lucky coincidence of being born where the right religion (of course that's Christianity) is dominant. Does anyone feel sorry for the African and Amazonian tribes that have to go to Hell because they've never heard of this Jesus fellow? Oh well, it's only eternity.

In my last question I was asked to make predictions and told that I contradicted myself. I was also told that the Bible is perfect and that it does not contradict itself. If the Bible is perfect explain Genesis scientifically?
My point is that God doesn't inspire you you inspire yourself through the though of him. God exists in the minds of those that are willing to die to protect their way of life, be it by taking a bullet for your wife or flying planes into buildings. When one goes writing about God they had better weigh the consequences. God is not our creator nor is he a being that can hand you the things you pray for. If your child is sick and their fever is high, do you pray for them to make them better or depend on Hospitals and Science to protect them? If you believe God will heal Cancer you have been to one too many evangelical healers. When I said "God wants" it can only be taken as "I want" What is dangerous about not wanting people to follow Deuteronomy 13:6-10

My question on "Why do older men marry much younger women?".
I was in the kitchen thinking;--
Sorry about the last paragraph, not the whole question.
The last paragraph, was a bit below the belt, and I really am not a smutty person. -
But it is very common today, especially after a divorce or death.

A group of local kids have been coming up to our front door at night and knocking loudly then running away. We keep our porch light on and have called the cops and the kids have been caught once and fined but continue to bother us and now the cops won't even drive by. Any ideas on how to stop them or where to find info on what my rights are if I catch them? They are probably between 14 and 16 years old. We are the only ones on our street being bothered even though we haven't lived in our town very long and hardly know anyone here. Any ideas will be great thanks!!

The Light Bulb God I like the most is PeeWee Uranus. PeeWee Uranus is the god of butts and urane. Without him, we wouldn't have That Uranus joke and we would go peepee into our trees instead into the toliet. He is the son of The God "Urectee Amore" which he is responable for our organs. PeeWee Uranus made a planet with is named after him so that we will know about big butts and farts that will make us laught with joy, even from O.J Simpson when he farted at loud in the court room.If you believe in PeeWee Uranus, you don't have to read them bookz agian.

LET IT SHINE -
The real power of Christ's light makes itself known when it shines forth in life's darkest hours. If we have been given adversity, we have also been given a good opportunity to witness.
It doesn't take the Spirit of Christ to be nice to nice people, nor does it take any divine spirit to be generous when one has wealth. Show me a poor person who sacrifices his own necessities for the welfare of strangers. Let me see persons who remain kindhearted to people who mistreat them. Show me a person who knowingly passes up a chance to destroy their enemy. When a person does these things, they are not acting according to human nature, but against it. The most valued attributes of mankind do not come naturally to the human animal; character borrows from the divine.
No matter what our situation may be, there will always be a profound way to represent our Lord. Christianity is extreme and we shouldn't settle for mediocrity or allow our walk to become a shuffling gait. Our best witness is a life lived for Christ!
