It is often quoted her by religious people on this site which suggests that they love it.
Are they only religious because of fear?
Have they no real and fearlessness reason for believing in God? Are they only believers because of the carrot of afterlife?

Then why do some think mocking the King of kings will make Him change His?

I thought it was because Jesus was very good to people and preached GOD to make one a loving humanbeing.
How good are you as a Jesus follower? Have you forgotten what Christ is all about? Why do you support killings and bombing of fellow humanbeings? Does this form of support for war makes one a true christain/evangelican? Or is this Jesus/church/evangelican thing just a brainwash? Why do Jesus followers invent/invest in weaponary?

Remember what Jesus said to his followers after he was resurrected !

Matthew 28:18,19, And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth. 19Going therefore, teach ye all nations; baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. 20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.
Revelation 1:5, . . . Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth.
Revelation 2:26-27, To anyone who proves victorious, and keeps working for me until the end, I will give the authority over the nations 27which I myself have been given by my Father, to rule them with an iron sceptre and shatter them like so many pots. (NJB)
Revelation 3:21, He that overcometh, I will give to him to sit down with me in my throne, as I also overcame, and sat down with my Father in his throne. (ASV)

For Christmas, I'm giving my daddy a mixed CD of songs. I want all the songs to be about being a "Daddy's Girl". What are some Daddy's Girl songs I could put on the CD? He likes gospel music and country music.

You know some people say,
when you die you go to heven or hell.
And
When your dead that's it.
And
when you die you become a ghost...

How can the first and third on be true..?

i mean. when a flower dies, does it go to heven or hell depending on how many bee's pollenated it. Or become a ghost?

When everything dies.. does it go to heven?

“Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven. Matthew 10:32-33

They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work. Titus 1:16

Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths And honor Me with their lips, But have removed their hearts far from Me Isaiah 29:13

If you are really a Christian why is it so hard to tell others about the God that matters most to you over everything else in your life? You should love to get the chance to tell others about the hope you have in Christ Jesus! People usually talk about what is most important to them. So what do you talk about? Is Jesus the most important to you? Is your life really revolving around Jesus if you are not confessing him to others? If you are not telling other about Jesus you might just be fooling yourself.

If he sends your brother, sister, mom, dad and grandma to hell cause they didn't believe and say a prayer - do you like that?
Or if he lets everyone into heaven, Hitler, Charles Manson, Bush no matter what they done or believed - do you like that either?
Bible allows for both - which do you like or neither?

How significant is the news? does it have any connection with international politics? Does not it mean that he was already catholic when was PM but did not disclose it. Does not it also means that he supported bush's attack on Afghanistan and Iraq under his catholic faith. (Mind you, he himslef referred to God once while talking about Iraq attack)

Really believe the Earth is only 6,000 years old? I am a Bible-believing Christian, and it is more than a little embarrassing that some of us defend that, and how silly and uninformed it makes us look.
The Bible says it was a "day" in each step of creation - but please don't be so locked in that only means 24 hours. Other scripture says that "to God a day is as a thousand years" - and his creative day could be thousands our millions of our years - don't you get that? It doesn't lessen God or his creative ability (creation) any at all.
There is proof that any person, believer or non-believer, has that the Earth is 4.4 - 4.6 billion years old - no problem! Carbon dating isn't wrong, not are the fossil records. Nor is micro-evolution... we just lose tons of credibility with non-believers when we dispute what really is provable, legitimate evidence of the Earth's age.
God did it all! But not 6,000 years ago.

I live in Knoxville, Tennessee and a box was sent to me from Boise, Idaho on Dec. 7th. by ground mail. It was sent to a P.O. Box and I checked this morning and it still hasn't come. My mom insured the package but she thinks she threw the receipt away. Any feed back is greatly appreciated. Thank You.

Did early Christians, often, use one or two fishes as a representation of Jesus? Please elaborate for me.


Here is a picture of an ancient Chruch in Israel, displaying the fishes:

Like the dinosaurs before us [and every other animal], isn't our only reason to exist is to have sex and make more babies? And if sex is so natural and important, why is it treated like it's dirty, to be hidden?
