For what reason were we created by God? What was His purpose for putting this earth here and putting us on it?

Please don't go into a Mormon-bashing session, just give me your own beliefs. Thank you.

know they will laugh at me. They will think me a fool, proud, mad, etc.….I can do without all the rest if I have Him. Fear not for me, nor for those who will join me. God will look after us all. He will be with us. —Mother Teresa

In taking on our human nature, Jesus has ensured that, indeed, God will always be with us. Find a way today to make God’s presence more real to someone in your life.

I know I've heard this line about Jesus before, but I was young enough then to not have any further options available. How about fictional?

Luke 9:23
And He said to them, If anyone wants to come after Me let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.

I appreciate Luke's rendering of this verse because it has a very dear word in it. The word " daily." This kind of way to live the christian life is a day to day thing. Please share on how the Lord has touched you regarding this verse with us.

Ty for taking the time.
Spend however much time to share your portion.

In Christ

Hi,

Is there a difference in MEANING between:

"The hate is rising inside me"
AND

"The hate is accumulating / collecting / gathering(which one is correct out of those 3) in me

Thanks

Here are the verses:

Acts 20:32-35
32 "Now I commit you to God and to the word of his grace, which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified. 33 I have not coveted anyone's silver or gold or clothing. 34 You yourselves know that these hands of mine have supplied my own needs and the needs of my companions. 35 In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.' "


Verse 35 is one of those rare instances where Paul quotes the Lord Jesus Christ........but........that particular quote is found nowhere else in Scripture. We know that Paul only met the Lord in His glorified state on the road to Damascus........but never in the flesh.

This is only an opinion question....as I truly believe in the Scriptures as being direct from God. Where do you suppose Paul heard this?

Thanks,
Primo

I really wonder this. I have just watch a local TV program about African tribes which one tribe they describe the women normally do not wear clothes on their top so their breast is shown clearly, even though some wear colourful jewellery it don't cover it. Also on the behind, you can see the buttocks clearly because they wear something which look like thong in back. A different culture I can understand and they accept this dress style. Of course the Africans are also human and will have sex drive. But how can they see this everyday but don't are sexually aroused when unaproprite? I think in most other culture, if people wear like that everyday, many people will have much sexual urge and will create problems.

The "no religious test" clause of the United States Constitution is found in Article VI, section 3.
