Lets be honest here: if you're a regular on this forum, you've seen that very few Christians know the Bible. That's indisputable. Yet they obsess over homosexuality, which one would think to be an issue that doesn't concern them.

Why, in your opinion, do they do that?

I am 21 and I want to help out with a charity in the month December in Cincinnati, OH. The problem is, I don't really know where to look to find one. I would like to do something with people around my age, but I'm not sure how to go about finding something.

You can give real-world examples, or your own personal experience.

Hypothetically speaking, if you had to chose another religion that emulated your values, morals and ethics that you currently have or believe, which religion would you pick?

Hypothetical Rules:
1) No religions related to Christianity
2) No religions that use the Bible as the "main book"

Both Islam and Christianity have a person (Muhammad and Jesus) who is an intermediary between God and the people.

Both have a history of intolerance of other religions (inquisitions, capital punishments for lack of faith, etc) and both religions make efforts to convert people of other faiths.

These two religions are different in this respect from Judaism, Buddhism, and the others where the people relate directly to their Divinity without an intermediary prophet or messiah, and are tolerant of other religions, and do not try to convert people or force them to believe.

What is this connection between Islam and Christianity? Do you think they were derived from the same source?

The two religions came into being in the same region of the world, and at, more or less, the same time (give or take a few hundred years).

do a lot of people here just need to lighten up? I realize that this section deals with serious topics, but honestly. Some of the answers are just insults, threats, and sarcasm. I'll admit, some of it's mine and some of it's hilarious. Am I the only one that thinks people need to lighten up a bit?

I use the term "Protestant" to refer to any Christian church not in communion with the Catholic Church or the Eastern Orthodox Church. I don't think it's offensive or anything.

However when I refer to, say, a non-denominational Christian church as "Protestant," some are offended, and I'll almost always be corrected by some who'll tell me it's "Christian," not "Protestant." Aren't all of the denominations "Christian," though?

2007-12-01 17:42:04 · 13 answers · asked by Kevin 2 in Religion & Spirituality

Some say its GOD or Jesus Christ or Holy Spirit.

But i want to get this point clear. Hebrews chp 7 clearly explains who is M?

Hints:
Think about the Triune God - (have no beginning of days nor end of life.)

Priest of the Most High God... - (therefore not GOD the Father)

Like unto the Son of GOD.. (Jesus) - (therefore cannot be Jesus Christ)

-- THEN, who is Melchizedek?

Dont be carried away by someone saying. Rely everything based on the WORD OF GOD, The Bible in your hands.

I have referred everything from Hebrews chp 6,7,8 - Mainly chp 7...

God Bless
