If life no longer becomes liveable, if someone just desides that it is time to move on to the next realm, and this person truely believes in God and Christ, will their soul be cast into the lake of fire. Just wondering, I have several friends that went this way what is your opinion?

In one of Matisyahus songs called "warrior" he starts talkin to the crowd and says "everything in this world, everything in this life has an inner essence, an inner soul and when it started out before this soul was reincarnated into this life, into this body time and place that we find ourselves...."
my friend claims that sounds buddhist...what does matis mean when he says this?

every religious person believes his or her religion is the one God adheres to. I was born a baptist and according to the bible it says if you beleive that Christ died for your sins and was ressurected, and you dont denounce him, your straight in.well that means all non christians go to hell. Or i should say your "soul " goes one place or another.C'mon man if we just landed here from another planet and heard this non-sense we'd swear this planet is wacko. what does your soul do for eternity anyway?

We were having a prayer meeting and group worship time. A business man came in who had suffered from diabetes for a long time. He said he had lost feeling totally in his feet. We were all praying for each other and my friend got down on the floor and laid both his hands on his feet and began praying. He prayed for quite a while. A few weeks later the man returned and told us the Lord had healed him and the feeling in his feet had returned. Blessed be the Lord Jesus....sweet Jesus....

I reposted this question in a different way because people weren't answering the question.

I know about the Jewish religion, because my grandmother was Jewish so please don't preach to me about it. I just want to know why (some) Christians can't accept the difference? It's your religion, it's a freedom and a preference. If you call yourself a Christian, you shouldn't discrimiate other religions or you're prejudice.

With Deism, you keep the God you love. You just remove the man-made excess like ritual and tithing. And you also remove the guilt you have for being what you are. And you can see the universe with a better understanding and with more openness, not clouded by words people say.

Heck, you can even still go to church and support them. But you don't have to fight for what you believe in anymore. You don't have to force a belief on unwilling people.

Do not be concerned with an afterlife but rather be thankful for the life you have. Even if you are the saddest or most crippled person in the world, at least you are born a human being. What a privilege that is! And at least you can experience things a person can experience, even the simplest things in life are worth living for. Imagine there being no life, no air to breathe, no water to drink, just floating rocks in space. God made not only you but also other people and things which took forever to do, but its all so very simple and balanced

I am a religious person and I believe that God would help us if we have a strong faith in him. But what about relationship with someone? We can ask God to make someone like us...can't we?

John baptized for repentance (Matthew 3:11). Since Jesus was supposedly without sin, he had nothing to repent of. The fact that he was baptized by John has always been an embarrassment to the church. The gospels offer no explanation for Jesus' baptism, apart from the meaningless explanation given in Matthew 3:14-15 "to fulfill all righteousness." Other passages, which indicate that Jesus did not consider himself sinless, are also an embarrassment to the church (Mark 10:18, Luke 18:19).

Luke, who claims to be chronological (Luke 1:3), tries to give the impression that John did not baptize Jesus. Luke's account of Jesus' baptism occurs after the account of John's imprisonment (Luke 3:20-21).

I'm sorry I just can't have faith in a Religion with so many problems. I can't devote my life to the lies!

From my letter printed in amNY, 6/8/06:
When I read about Ann Coulter¹s new book "Godless: The Church of Liberalism" and her diatribe against the 9/11 widows, I thought to myself, "Where is the Martin Luther King, Jr. of the Christian Right? Where is the guy or gal who fervently believes in and fights for his positions, yet offers his hand in reconciliation to his opponents, hoping to change their hearts?" ...Is there any right-wing follower of Jesus out there who isn¹t condemning the left wholesale?

I thought of columnist Becky Miller of Oregon, and of John Dawson, author of Healing America's Wounds. It sure isn't Ann Coulter, Jerry Falwell, or Pat Robertson. So, who is, or could become, the MLK of the Christian Right?

Fortunately for those who really want to know the truth, Matthew made a colossal blunder later in his gospel which leaves no doubt at all as to which of the above possibilities is true. His blunder involves what is known as Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem riding on a donkey (if you believe Mark, Luke or John) or riding on two donkeys (if you believe Matthew). In Matthew 21:1-7, two animals are mentioned in three of the verses, so this cannot be explained away as a copying error. And Matthew has Jesus riding on both animals at the same time, for verse 7 literally says, "on them he sat."
Why does Matthew have Jesus riding on two donkeys at the same time? Because he misread Zechariah 9:9 which reads in part, "mounted on a donkey, and on a colt, the foal of a donkey."
Anyone familiar with Old Testament Hebrew would know that the word translated "and" in this passage does not indicate another animal but is used in the sense of "even" (which is used in many translations)for emphasis
