Religion & Spirituality - 3 July 2006

Many say Christ took upon himself their sins(spots) and became a sacrifice in their stead, and such was acceptable to God. But Hebrews 9 & 10 speaks of Christ(the end of the law, thereby the end of law imputed sin) offering himself to God "without spot"(sin). And since sacrifice "for sin" is by the law and of the law, it's what God never desired nor ever took pleasure in; Not to mention it does not purge the conscience, since law is both the source of sin and the strength of sin's death sting, followed by hell.

Perhaps the issue of sacrifice for sin (which is by the law and of the law) should be raised to the level of conscience and expelled from Christ-ianity as putting spots upon spotless Christ, since Christ is "the end of the law", "our peace who hath abolished the law", thereby the author of "eternal salvation" rather than temporal salvation followed by the hell of being destroyed afterward due to having spots, wrinkles, blemishes... which is to allegory say laws.

Spots?

Does that make any of them "cheaters" After all, each of them is not only consenting, but granting permission to each other to partake and enjoy.
I've heard of some christians that say this is "cheating". But cheating is defined as;
v. intr.

1. To act dishonestly; practice fraud.
2. To violate rules deliberately, as in a game: was accused of cheating at cards.
3. Informal. To be sexually unfaithful: cheat on a spouse.


So they cannot be unfaithful, if the spouse in question not only gives permisson, but does so happily in the spirit of the occasion?
So, my question is, in case you haven't figgured it out yet; why would you ever call a mutually agreed upon tryist with another couple, "cheating"?
Intelligent answers only please, any answer starting with "the bible says" will be ignored.

If there were proof of Gods reality, here on earth now. What would it take to convince you that the God of the Bible is who He say's he is and can do what He says He can do. Please keep in mind that if you havent read the bible completly, you could have no basis for oppinion other than heresay and observation. I am asking what it will take for you to believe?

Reguardless of what wars took place in the old testement. Jesus Specifically comanded his followers to "love your enemy" As I said before this is what sets christ's teachings apart from other ideologys. Christs message was that of love, not war. and yet we have some christian churches that are supporting it....
My question is simply to involk THOUGHT.... something that is not happening amoung most christians......

Bible, in the book of Hebrews, Ch. No.1 Verses No.10 and 11, and the book of Psalms, Ch. No.102, Verse No.25 and 26, that
'Almighty God created the Heavens and the Earth, and they will perish.' Exactly opposite is mentioned in the
book of Ecclesiastics, Ch. No.1, Verse No.4, and the book of Psalms, Ch. No.78, Verse No.69, that…
'The earth will abide forever.' I leave it to Christians to choose which of the two Verses are unscientific - the first pair or the second pair.
One has to be unscientific - Both cannot take place. The world cannot abide forever as well as perish - It is unscientific

Please come to the TRUE WORD OF GOD Qur'an.
Remember
There is no god but Allah, Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is the last messenger of Allah.

Do you think you existed before birth? And if not, does that mean life started when you were born? After all, we are all part of life.

The way they are suppose to 'predict' your 'future' in a way - how can it be that they predict the same thing for millions of people with the same star sign... Isn't that reason enough to believe that it is bogus?

Jesus clearly stated His Will concerning relations with enemys in Mathew 5:43"You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor[h] and hate your enemy.' 44But I tell you: Love your enemies[i] and pray for those who persecute you.
This principle is one thing that sets christianity apart from other religions and yet the church is not following the teaching by discouraging the war. In fact the opposite seems to be true...

Mark Twains "War Prayer" seems to be very appropriate.

shouldnt these people do their jobs for free if they are really selfless? How come some guy who writes a sermon a week and babbles a few hours of prayer get paid more than the farmer who works all week to spend his sunday hearing about how much of a sinner he is?

Without a shadow of a doubt God is all powerful, alive and among us.. What will it take to convince you that this is the truth and when it is proven are you willing to take the conquences of unbelief once the truth is known to you?

I believe that its very possible that there was a BIG BANG but by God's hands.

How is it possible that everything in this Universe is created but the universe could not have been created by God?

People ask then why would God take millions of years to create life?
God said "Let the EARTH PRODUCE". The earth took along time not God.
God exist outside of time. Our concept of time does not Apply to Him.

If you look outside, everything you see was created by someone,something or some force(nature for example).

So why can't God not have created the universe?
