I am speaking of studying your entire faith not just the Bible. Studying Scripture is great too but shouldn't one know what and why one believes? There are great writings on all faiths. I try to read a book about my faith at least once a week. Studying the saints lives is edifying too.
Peace Be With You,

I have been confused about who exactly I pray to. Am I supposed to pray to God in Jesus' name? Can I pray to Jesus? Can I talk to Jesus? Is it wrong for me to just pray to Jesus? Can I pray to both God and Jesus separately or think that I'm praying to both?
How do you pray?

Man created God, rather than God created Man and the universe etc...

If you did, what was your best buy? I must be every Husband's dream because, believe it or not, I have NEVER, EVER, shopped in the sales.
I must be the world's worst shopper. I loathe it at the best of times. Clothes and shoes are the worse thing. I only buy them when I am desperate....or naked! Lol!
I am not a recluse by any standard but I just couldn't stand the crowds either. Am I alone here?

Love the Lord thy God with all your heart, mind, soul, & strength.... And the other: Love your neighbor as yourself... I believe if you do these, you could be on an mountain with no access to yahoo's answers & questions & still, Jesus would be reveled to you...

According to this question, it really doesn't make a difference. After all, God is no Santa Claus, and if the forces of evil want to have their way, there's nothing God will do to stop them.

(Alternative explanation is that God - Allah - was listening, but to the wrong people):

Am I the only one that is amazed by the mental gymnastics the Christians will go through in order to absolve their God of either wrongdoing or indifference in a time of need?

What gets you sent to hell? What are the automatic tickets to hell? What are not? What is forgiveable? What is unforgivable? Reference where possible.

That I am a bi male and that I enjoy wearing woman's panties from time to time? Just curious...No I am not asking if it makes me gay....I'm well into my adult years so I do not need advice on that. And no, I don't consider myself a cross dresser.
