I have an alarm next to my bed which wakes me up for fajr prayer every morning. This Thursday, I woke up for the prayer and changed the alarm to wake me up at 8:00 am so i can study, after i finished my prayer.
The next day, I forgot to reset my alarm to prayer time, and just turned it on (forgetting it was set to 8:00). While i was sleeping i saw i dream... The power went out and my clock stopped working. And in my dream i told myself "I better set the alarm to wake me up for prayer so that i dont forget to later on." I woke up from the dream. I looked at the clock. It was time for fajr prayer. :)

Can we stop judging?
This is my challenge. For the next 72 hours, when you look at, or talk to someone, see them as a person whom Jesus Christ loves and respond to them accordingly.
I don't care who they are...homosexual, drug addict, criminal, bum on the street...even that member of the family who is a pain to everyone else...
At the end of 72 hours, I'm going to ask you to report here, and tell me what, if anything, you have learned; that is, provided you are up for the challenge.
Thank you, Sawyer, for planting the seed for this idea.
So are you up for it?

People make an argument based on specific verses of the bible. I started a question asking if homosexuality is a choice or a biological 'disorder', and there were a few responses quoted the bible, claiming it must be a choice.
However, do these people practice what they preach?? or are they simply hypocrites? Let me quote some verses from the bible.
'You must not wear clothing woven part of wool, part of linen.' [Deuteronomy 22:11]
'She (a rape victim) must marry the rapist, because he has violated her. And so long as he lives, he may not divorce her.' [Deuteronomy 22:29]
'...the dead man's wife must not marry a stranger outside the family. Her husband's brother must fulfill the duty of a brother and marry the dead man's wife.' [Deuteronomy 25:5]
'Do not cut off the hair on the sides of your head.' [Leviticus 19:27]
'Do not trim the edges of your beard.' [Leviticus 19:27]
Unless you follow the practices I mentioned, how do you justify quoting parts and ignoring these?

it seems no one can ever give me a straight answer. they say,"ITS THE DEVEL'S WORK!!" but how is it wrong? I don't think it is wrong because its the devel's work, but i think it's bad because, if used unsafley,it makes broken homes. But how is sex before marriage linked to the devel?

Jason David BeDuhn, Ph.D. A historian of religion and culture states: “While it is difficult to quantify this sort of analysis, it can be said the NW[T] emerges as the most accurate of the translations compared.”
So a PHD in history and religion said that the NWT is the most accurate translation of the original manuscripts to date. Look it up on google.
One example: The unique, personal name of God, the Tetragrammaton ("YHWH or JHVH"), is found in Masoretic versions of the Old Testament 6,828 times. MOST ENGLISH translations of the Old Testament follow the standard convention of rendering the Tetragrammaton as "the LORD". The New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (NWT) differs significantly here from most other English Bibles by consistently rendering the Hebrew Tetragrammaton (divine name) as "Jehovah" in 6,827 instances. In the new testament 146 times. A total of 6973 times.
That is just one example. Others are in John 1:1; Word was a god.

have you noticed this sort of underlying rivalry on yahoo answers? it's like a 3:1 ratio of atheists to christians who answer the religious questions. The thumbs up and down have the same ratio. Why do atheists complain about god preachers when they push their views across in a "i know everything" attitude.
FYI-I am an atheist.

Why is it that for 364 days of the year children are told not to talk to strangers or accept lollies/gifts from them and yet on 31/10 they are encouraged to do so? Don't parents think about the nutters out there who could well be sizing ther children up for illegal activity?
No wonder kids are confused these days.

Christians follow the Bible because those are the teachings of the Lord and Jesus. But what if Jesus came back and told you to commit a sin like adultery or another sin there is? Would you do it since he is the one to say commit it?
And no, this is not the Antichrist.

Sure, if somebody doesn't believe in god, they don't go to heaven to be with him/her. So, what is the purpose of sending them to a place where they suffer for all eternity? An omnibenevolent being would think this is wrong and unnecessary, i think.

Every thing I read in Torah there is always an underlaying teaching. Now the story of Bilah after Rachel died and the actions that took place are really pulling at me but it is not surfacing. Can anyone tell me what they see when they read about Bilhah.
When I read about Bilhah after Rachel died I had this gut feeling like something very bad took place but I am not making the association. What can be said about the invasion of privacy to Jacob by Reuben?

Why cant I love anyone ? I am having such a personal struggle. I feel love for humans drain away from my heart and then my heart fills up again with love for Jesus. It feels as if my heart cant love Jesus and a man at the same tyme. Why does this love empty me of love for men and make me want to love Jesus even more than ever. I feel married to Him and not capable of marrying a man.

In the US, we have a right to participate (or not) in whatever religious tradition we choose. This freedom of religion means allowing others to have their own moral code; people might have their store open for business on Sunday, or attend a mosque for worship, or drink/smoke/gamble, or write books/make movies about offensive topics, or have sexual relations outside a committed relationship, or even form a household with someone of the same-sex.
Laws should forbid things that are intrinsically, verifiably, and significantly harmful to people and/or society. Same-sex marriage, IMO, doesn't fit those criteria. Therefore, a law against it would be based primarily on religious opinion. BTW, giving rights to only traditional marriages IS THE SAME AS outlawing SSM.
Either you believe in the Freedom of Religion and therefore legally allow people to hold and practice either Christian or non-Christian values AND ALSO not legally endorse one value system over another OR YOU DON’T.
