i don't care if you believe heaven/hell is here on earth, after death, non-existent, whatever. and i don't want you to explain yourself. i just want you to say yes or no. every answer should only be 1 word long. and if it's more than one word (even if i agree with you) you'll get a thumbs down and you're answer will be ignored when choosing best. thanks. just answer yes or no.

I know it is wrong to commit sins and we should ask for forgiviness, but sometimes it just doesn't make sense to me. For example, if you succumbed to a human weakness, you could tell yourself, "okay, I could have done this." But you can't say that every time you sin, because sinning is an inevitability.

He is the last pope listed in the prophecy of the popes. According to the prophecy, someone named Peter the Roman will preside over the church after this pope during a time of great tribulation and persecution. After which, Rome will be destroyed and judgement day will be upon us. What do you think about all this?

In the Christian New Testament Bible, there is no record at all of the Life and Teachings of our Master Jesus Christ from his ages here with us of twelve years old to thirty years old.

Xenophobic is a sick, prejudiced human who fears or hates or is jealous of all other humans from other nations. Compare with chauvinistic or jingoistic or a neo-conservative.

Why? Who did that editing of the Bible? Where did Jesus go?
Did He Teach the Gospel to the Gentiles? Other?

Have you ever prayed to know the truth on this?

Thank you for all sincere answers.

Peace and progress in and with Jesus here in Spirit !
John 16:7-16 Our New Teacher Jesus here in addition to the Holy Spirit and the Spirit of God within us. And all as One Holy Father-Son-Spirit of Truth of the Trinity Government of ALL Reality.

Its confusing when the majority of Christian preachers say that the law is no longer binding, including the 10 commandments. wouldn't that be "do[ing] away with the law"?
If you start by assuming that every letter of the bible is absolute truth, then the correct interpretation of the Bible must have no contradictions. How then should Matthew 5:17 be interpreted?

This is a genuine question. Some unfortunately do not believe in god at all. Those that do have faith. . . .What are your reasons for doubting the credibility of the new testament? I just want to know, so I dont offend anyone I meet. .

The faith that you have in god comes from reading the bible, I hope, so that you may know the true god.

There are many types of religions, but almost all stem from the old testament. Jewish, Islam, catholic which is technically christian, and other specific sects....orthodox, methodist, baptist, evangelical, and more. . . but. . .

in as much faith as is takes to believe thus far. . why is it that Jesus is doubted to be the christ. Is it because you didnt see him yourself? Is it that you were born into a religion that didnt believe it? Even after jesus was crucified on the cross by the jews, they finally realized what they had done.

What are your reasons for doubting the credibility of the new testament?

About death, I know what happens after you die (according the Christian Bible). I need some reassurance I guess, I asked mom and all she could say is "Read the Bible, it's all in there."

I am an idiot but I am asking you all to help me figure this out...does anybody know for sure what happens after death...I mean through scientific study, relgion, ect?

If you're of an organized faith or not.

1. Do you feel you know everything?

2. Does it bother you when you're called "stupid" or without "intelligence" "illogical" for what you believe in?

3. How do feel about the "secular" community claiming the words reason and logic?

4. Do you reject scientific knowledge?

5. What do you say when people blame God for all the bad in the world. The Wars, Darfur all the usual's?

6. And lastly, what are you sick of having to clarify or defend over and over again? A lame argument you're just tired of?

And yes this is a repeat question some of you might recognize it. I got a lot of good answers last time. Hoping for more!

Thanks you very much!!!!

I am a member of alcoholic's anonymous and am trying to improve my conscious contact with god through prayer and meditation. I have several prayers, but not a clue on how to meditate. Can some one tell me step-by-step how to meditate as a beginner? This would true help me since I do not have the finances to take a class or buy a book.
Thank you

Have any other Christians visited the JW website? Does it affect you at all? It makes me nearly sick to my stomach. Reminds me of how I felt when I encountered a demon. Does it affect anyone else that way?
