I have been "out" for well over twenty years and have had exposure to those people and have found that often those people who ascribe to that belief are homophobic and often do not truly understand gays nor are they geniune in their good intentions.

Could someone explain the point of speaking in tongues? I do believe it is a gift, but why would God need you to speak in another language when he understands ours?

Are there words we cannot even come up with?

The Watchtower claims that one cannot understad the Bible without the Watchtower literature.

What kind of God would give His people a Bible with no means to understand it?

dress so "latina".

DISCLAIMER: I already know everything you liberals/feminists/latino pride groups are about to say on this. But it's true that the U.S. is more conservative on public appearance, displays of affection, dress, and customs than Central America. How do I tell her to "wear less make-up, lessen her clevage, wear form-fitting pants" politely and in Spanish?

I am wondering about the use of pretérito indefinido and pretérito imperfecto:
Which is correct:

Lo que me gustó más fue el día que pasamos en Londres.
Lo que me gustaba más era el día que pasamos en Londres.
Lo que me gustaba más era la gente amable.
Lo que me gustó más fue la gente amable.

Thanks for your help!

I'm a Christian but don't believe it's a "religion" but a way of life based on faith and the teachings of Christ.

We live in a newly built town home, and are having problems with our neighbor in the house next to ours (not attached). We have only been here for four months, and her four and a half. At first she was mildly friendly, but as time went on she began complaining to us that there was garbage in her yard. This persisted several times, all of which were after a storm, but she insisted that we were throwing trash in her yard (plastic bags, cig butts, candy bar wrappers). There was one incident where our puppy did poop in her yard, but we gladly cleaned it up. She's called the police because there was a friends car in front of her mail box and she didnt get her mail. She made us clean up raccoon puke (or something) because she blamed it on our dog. The list goes on, and every time she comes to our house she rings the door bell over and over, when she knows we have a baby. She even came over during a tornado warning to complain when we were in the basement Help us please!

"Good" being: "kind", "charitable", "helpful", "thoughtful", etc.

Do you "do good" because others will appreciate it or because "good" simply ought to be done?

Or are there other reasons?

A free guift to all people everywhere. It's something that cannot be earned and is not given to us on the basis of a reward or payment for goods deeds. My question here is why, in your opinion, do so many people appear to be unsaved when Ephesian 2:8-9 clearly spell out the basis on which Gods free gift is given. Today we have so many people trying to impress God with their works and earn a place in heaven. I would like to hear from people with genuine answers please.

To present a book with such a claim, before proving that claim, it should pass some pre-qualification. I myself do not know the reality, that's the reason I am asking to those christians who believe that gospel is inerrant words of God. Given below are some questions, I want asnwers to be with refernce to gospel (not paul's letters) you can either answer these questions or prove that questions are irrelevent in this context. choice is yours. Kindly don't take this as an offense, these are serious questions.

1. Does bible or Gospel claim that it is a book revealed by God.
2. Does God anywhere in Gospel or for that matter in bible mention that, I am (The God) inspiring my words to the author of respective book.
3. Does authors of the Gospel (Mathew, mark, luke and John) Claim that, what they are writing is inspiration of God?
Thanks in advance.
