Where I work we all get along extremely well. There are four of us in our department. We each have different beliefs. We are good friends and are there for each other. We have lot's of religious discussions. We aren't trying to convert each other. I personally have learned many things about these other belief systems. We have more in common with each other than we have differences. Wouldn't it be nice to see more of that here?

It began hundreds of years ago, when the Church changed the Bible. . .

The "New Testament": Pagan revenge

Between G-d's own miracles and the Jewish teaching of His Word, the pagan priest/pastorhoods of Egypt, Greece, and Rome were steadily losing their power over the gentile populations. They decided to fight back by creating a new religion, one that would claim to be the fulfillment of the Hebrew "Old Testament," yet would bring back the pagan lies in a new disguise.

Thus the "New Testament" was written, in Greek rather than Hebrew, and attached to the original Hebrew scriptures to try to change their meaning back toward paganism.

The "New Testament" tried to change G-d from One, as in the Hebrew scriptures, into a "trinity" as in Egyptian cults or the eastern religions of Hinduism and Buddhism. It described Jesus as G-d in a human body, like the pagans always described Pharoah and other wicked kings. It declared G-d's Law to be a "curse" that no one can truly obey, announced that there must be a "mediator" between G-d and man, and pretended that salvation could now be achieved outside the Law.

To blind the gentile nations, the "New Testament" also warned people not to learn from the Jews, declaring that Israel no longer possessed the true, complete Word of G-d.

In the Bible, the book of Daniel warned of an evil power--a false religion--that would believe in the true "G-d of fortresses... plus a god its fathers did not know." This religion would "speak bizarre words about the Most High, wear out the holy ones (the Jews), and plan to change the festivals and the religious Law."7 The Christian Church has indeed replaced Passover with Easter (the pagan holiday of Astarte and Ishtar) and Hanukah with Christmas (the pagan winter holiday).

By 'somewhere else' I mean a country with few or no Christians. If you are one of those who believes that people who are not 'saved' go to hell and yet you are were born and raised in, say, a muslim family in a country where Islam is the dominant (or only) religion do you think you would be going to hell or do you think that somehow you would have been 'saved for Jesus' anyway - and, if so, how?

The BATTLE between JAMES and PAUL

You would think Christianity would give a clear guidance on this incredibly important foundation of faith !!



Man is justified by faith alone
-------------------------------


Rom 3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law [is] the knowledge of sin.

ROM 3:26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

ROM 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

Romans 5:21
so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

ROM 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

Gal 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

GAL 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

Gal 3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, [it is] evident: for, The just shall live by faith. 12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.

GAL 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that crucified/hangeth on a tree

GAL 5:18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

Rom 4:2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath [whereof] to glory; but not before God.

Ephesians 2:8,9 "For by grace are ye saved through faith . . . not of works."

Ephesians 2:5
made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved.

Titus 2:11
For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men.

Ephesians 2:8
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:

2 Timothy 1:9
who has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time,

Titus 3:7
so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life.








Man is NOT justified by faith alone
-----------------------------------

James 2:21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?,

22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?

23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.

24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.

25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent [them] out another way?

26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.


Rom 2:13(For not the hearers of the law [are] just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.


James 2:24 "Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only."


ECC 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

Start with the question: If you were promised a chocolate bar after an infinite amount of time would you ever get that chocolate bar
A:) No
If you were sent to run an infinitely long playing field would you ever get to the end.
A:) No
Why?-Because you can't logically transcend infinity as it goes on forever,so you can't pass it or come to the end of it, like you can't come to the end of the infinite amount of time to get your chocolate bar.

Considering we are currently living in the present how much time has passed to get to this point. Logically and mathematically it can not be infinite as you can't transcend infinity.
Thus the energy and space-time of the singularity can't have existed forever,why?because it would take an infinite amount of time to get to this point.

So if the universe, with space and time didn't always exist (because its not eternal), where did it come from? Did it just appear from no where?? because that would be pretty miraculous...

Times have changed. Read the New Testament. That law is no longer followed.

The penalty for all sin used to be death (it wasn't just for homosexuals) and it only applied to Jews. That law changed and is no longer valid because Jesus will wash away our sins if we believe in Him.

Why are they attacking a code that is no longer followed?

You would think that Christians would be overjoyed that a civil Government wants to enforce Christs' Laws.
Matthew 5: 39But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever
shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
44But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them
which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise
on the evil and on the good,and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust
Matthew 7: 1Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged:
and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye,
but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Jesus obviously agrees that hate is wrong--what a crying shame his "followers"--want to be free to keep hating & condemning other
