and lets remember what Jesus has to say about the matter

Jesus says, “Don’t imagine that I came to bring peace on earth! No, rather a sword lf you love your father, mother, sister, brother, more than me, you are not worthy of being mine." Matthew 10:34

I hope that a social change will begin where the young become more tolerant and educated for one another. I hope that the young start thinking about more important things like polotics instead of obsessing over MTV ect.

I noticed that a lot of British people will call americans dumb because of how americans write.

Don't people realize that americans have completely different grammar rules???

Americans are taught American english not English in schools. It has nothing to do with stupidity.

For some reason, some americans don't know this too, and will correct people who use English spellings and grammar.

Not using English spellings, does not make one stupid or uneducated.

Okay, so over hundreds of years, science has proved that we are not the center of the universe, or even our solar system. So, if God is real, and we are the only living beings on all the planets in the universe, then why aren't we the center?

I always dream about whirlwinds. But in the past dreams, these whirlwinds did not want to harm me.

Sometimes, they go around chasing those who have offended me, and I was always safe because I call on God to save me, and so i was always safe.

But the last time, the whirlwind appeared again. It appeared and I said to myself, it meant me no harm, and suddenly it cross my path, ready to swirl me up to heaven, and I pleaded "DON'T" was the only thing i said. SO then it moved at a safe distance away from me...and then suddenly a big EAR (right ear to be exact) flashed in placeof the whirlwind. And then I woke up.

I don't think God given me the gift to interpret a dream, as Joseph son of Jacob, can. I wish. Can you? Please.

Thanks

If we follow the pattern of the "True" religion being the last one reveled, then Baha'i should be the one True religion. But if The Divine is indeed omniscient and infinite, would It not have gotten it right the first time with Judaism? What are your thoughts?

I've been studying Spanish for about 5 years and am highly advanced. I am still hesitant to say I am fluent, but can reasonably keep up well with native speakers, and can read and write it and can switch back and forth between Spanish and English well. But every now and then when I'm speaking English to someone, I suddenly want to respond to them in Spanish. Or sometimes I count in Spanish, without thinking about it, even if its a bit slower. And, I've noticed that after functioning in Spanish for a while, it takes a few moments to adjust back to English.

Has anyone else experienced ths?

What if you are in the middle of commiting sin and suddenly you die? For example if a man is cheating on his wife and during the sinful act he is lusting and kissing his mistress while driving and his car flips over and they both die. Do they both go straight to hell or will they be forgiven and judged and live in heaven eternally?

i saw last night a question asking "If Christian parents knew their child would be a Full-blown homosexual, would they choose abortion?"
and many answeres are people saying no because they choose to be gay
then in defence to that they say that homosexuality is not a gene...so that must also mean that my attraction to blond hair and blue eyes is in my genes?..

on which chromosome can i find this????

I just saw it on A&E, and even though I viewed it believing it was intended to be slanted against Christianity, I still found it to be disturbing, and as a Christian I am embarrassed by the way these people behave and by what they said. I am also wondering why a woman who has never married and never had children (as far as my own research has shown) is allowed to rape these children of their childhoods by yelling at them, calling them "phony hypocrites", and engaging them in extremely adults-only issues like abortion and war. My question is, what did you think of this?

Are Christians arrogant to believe they are the only ones to go to heaven?
A man came to my door today to talk me into going to his church. His pamphlet says "If you died today are you 100% sure that you would go to heaven?" I half listened to what he had to say but once he left I asked myself "Is HE 100% sure he is going to heaven?" Well, if he was 100% sure he was going to heaven that would make him very full of himself, wouldn't it? To assume that you are special enough to have no doubt in your mind that anything else could possibly happen. Not even the teeniest tiniest millionth of a chance you were wrong. Nothing is 100%. "Kills 99.9% of bacteria", "99.9% effective when used properly", "99.9% chance he IS the father!"
Also on the back it says "You need a good Bible preaching church to grow spiritually and learn more about your salvation." Says who? Are they saying then that they are the only church good enough to help you into heaven? Pompous Christians...
