This is an excerpt from the title page of the Book of Mormon:

"...to the convincing of the Jew and Gentile that JESUS is the CHRIST, the ETERNAL God, manifesting himself unto all nations..."

So why is everyone always saying I am not Christian?

. (Genesis 19:32-36)
Come, let us make our father drink wine, & we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, & lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.

And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, [and] lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

And they made their father drink wine that night also: & the younger arose, & lay with him; & he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.

Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father. So both of Lot's daughters became pregnant by their father
What is the role of God in this story?

All the religions were developed at the ancient time when people were not aware of whats going around the world. Technically we were not advanced. Religions were developed to show human the path to GOD. In the time of modern science and technology don't we need a new religion. If yes what would be that religion called. What do you think.

The Biblical description of the flood in Genesis chapter 6, 7 and 8 indicates that the deluge was universal and it destroyed every living thing on earth, except those present with Noah (pbuh) in the ark. The description suggests that the event took place 1656 years after the creation of Adam (pbuh) or 292 years before the birth of Abraham, at a time when Noah (pbuh) was 600 years old. Thus the flood may have occurred in the 21st or 22nd Century B.C.

This story of the flood, as given in the Bible, contradicts scientific evidence from archaelogical sources which indicate that the eleventh dynasty in Egypt and the third dynasty in Babylonia were in existence without any break in civilisation and in a manner totally unaffected by any major calamity which may have occurred in the 21st century B.C. This contradicts the Biblical story that the whole world had been immersed in the flood water.
Remember
There is no god but Allah, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the messenger of Allah

by many people on this site? Does it worry or frighten you? It does me. I had no idea it was this bad... and, please, I am not saying that there's no hatred toward Christians...just that it seems more intense when directed at Jews.

Looking through these questions and answers, I find a number of comments that are highly critical of Christianity. What have Christians done recently (please don't ramble about the Crusades and the Inquisition, that was the medieval Catholic Church, not Christianity) to deserve such negativity from society? While writing your answer, please keep in mind how Christians have benefited the world, and explain how these acts are overshadowed.

"They spend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down to the grave.

Therefore they say into God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways.

What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? and what profit should we have, if we pray unto him?"

God Commands Burning Humans



3) More Murder Rape and Pillage (Deuteronomy 20:10-14)



As you approach a town to attack it, first offer its people terms for peace. If they accept your terms and open the gates to you, then all the people inside will serve you in forced labor. But if they refuse to make peace and prepare to fight, you must attack the town. When the LORD your God hands it over to you, kill every man in the town. But you may keep for yourselves all the women, children, livestock, and other plunder. You may enjoy the spoils of your enemies that the LORD your God has given you.

[The Lord speaking] "The one who has stolen what was set apart for destruction will himself be burned with fire, along with everything he has, for he has broken the covenant of the LORD and has done a horrible thing in Israel." (Joshua 7:15 NLT)

More importantly, I would like to share with you the Truth about the afterlife. I only tell you this because I care what will happen to you when you die. Have you ever told a lie, stolen anything, used God’s name in vain? These are just a few of God’s Moral Laws. When you die, God will judge you on the basis of His Moral Law. If you stand guilty before God of breaking His Laws, He will send you to Hell. If God is Just and Holy, He must punish lawbreakers. The good news is that God provided a way for you to be forgiven and go to Heaven. Jesus Christ died on a cross and rose again to pay the debt for your sins and take your punishment. What you must do is Repent, which means to say you are sorry to God and turn away from your sins. Then put your complete Trust in Jesus Christ. Only then will you be accepted into Heaven, not because you’re a good person, but because you’re a bad person who’s been forgiven. Please give this some thought. Your Eternal Destination depends on it.
