Proverbs 21:2
Every way of a man is right in his own eyes,but the LORD weighs the heart.

Those who did what was "right" in the eyes of the Lord, in the Bible, they were BLESSED, and God continually kept them under the shadow of His wing. Those who walked according to His ways it says:
2 Chronicles 34:2
And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, and walked in the ways of David his father; and he did not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.

God is all-knowing which includes all-seeing and more. God knows what you look like and what your surroundings look like from every possible angle over the course of your entire life. God never stops looking, because if God did, then God would not be "all seeing" anymore! So an all-knowing, all-seeing God is definitely watching when you shower.

Theists, do you think about this? God watching you in the shower, soaping up your body is like having 1000 video cameras pointed at you from every angle - does that bother you?

It wouldn't bother me. People who claim that God looks away while they shower are probably the same people who think they can sin because God is not paying attention. An all knowing (and therefore all-seeing) God is ALWAYS paying attention. What do you think?

I was wondering if certain colours within Paganism were significant and if so which and why.

Red and Yellow are the ones I mainly need to know about, but its always fun to learn new things

Many thanks.

It was summer and very hot and walking on the road was a very old Indian Lady dressed in doe skins. I stopped and asked if she would like a ride, she said yes and got in the car. There was a paper sack between us and she said what's this. I said --Oh it's a bottle of wine I got for my husband. She said -- Good Trade! Was she a wise woman?

I answered a question about Nancy Wilson, and deleted it. I had her confused with Ann Wilson (Heart). Anyway, who remembers that beautiful song called "Alone." If you will type the word "Alone" by Heart, you can hear it. Please share your feelings about this song.
I love it.

Ok... here is the thing, I am 20 years old, and my mother, whom I have a close relationship with, announced that she is divorcing my dad, who has fallen into mental illness (he is really unbearable to be with now) - he is a college professor, now he is completely insane. My mom can't bear it anymore because his condition is not changing... However, she had not told my Dad yet, and she told me not to tell him either... She already got an apartment of her own and plans on leaving in a month.

I am really feeling sorry for my dad, it breaks my heart to see the poor man lose everything like this... even though I understand why my mother is leaving - she can't live her life taking care of a crazy person...

Should I go ahead and give my dad a heads up in hopes that he may change? I was thinking about telling him, "heads up you are about to lose your wife, unless you don't do anything about it?" But I'm not sure how he will react... I don't want to betray my mom, he may explode...

Why dp the girls who follow this religion have to wear skirts every day?

A friend told me it means if you wear skirts (every day) that you Hasve been "saved"

another told me it was so people would ask why they were wearing skirts and they could tell about there religion...

do you know some of the different beliefs of this religion? All I know is the speaking in tongues thing. What makes it different though.

Salvation is not just a one-time deal and mental assent to Biblical truth and the Gospel message!

Salvation for a Christian involves the past, present, and future!

We are saved in the past, in the sense that we are saved from the Penalty of sin in what is called “Justification”.

We are currently being saved in the present, in the sense that we are being saved from the Power of sin in what is called “Sanctification”.

We will yet be saved in the future, in the sense that we will be saved from the Presence of sin in what is called “Glorification”.

The initial Justification of a sinner is by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ. It is a matter of the mind and heart. AND, it is a completely free, unmerited gift from God!

Upon receiving this FREE gift, a Christian is given the Holy Spirit to live and dwell within them.

Then, during the process of Sanctification, the Holy Spirit within convicts this believer of sin that remains, leading to repentance.

by tangible, I mean things that can be "seen under a microscope", touched, studied, measured, etc.

How about untangibles, such as: truth, person, justice, beauty, love, etc... I am right to say that we acknowledge that these things exist even if they can't be seen. Personally, I think that those values all point to the source--God.

"You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven." Matthew 22:29-32

according to that biblew passage there is no marriage in heaven.
suppose you believe in heaven, how does this quote make you feel? honestly it makes me not want to go to heaven and i dont even know who my wife is going to be. whoever she is i will have spent my entire life on earth here with her and she will be my best friend. than to go on living for the rest of eternity WITHOUT HER?? that breaks my heart. id rather just be dead and no heaven nor hell. how do you guys feel about this scenario?
