Religion & Spirituality - 14 August 2006

1. How can you persuade a person who doesnt believe in the bible only with the bible?

2. Can you really think of eternity, i mean in heaven wouldnt you eventually get tired of praising at some point and if not then the only reason to go to heaven is just to escape hell right?

3. Why would Jesus rapture the church and leave then come back just to put the reamining people in hell after they've gone through terrible tribulation?

4. How can God be so good if he punishes nearly all humanity just for not believing his son?

5. Why when I prayed that God may prolong the life of someone he let then die many days before she was supposed to.

The bible says just as no one knows where the wind comes from so to when you are reborn...this is for you...if you are tired and you fell you have no more strength...this is for you...if you hit rock bottom from drugs and alchol...this is for you...if all you want to do is end your life...this is for you....if you do not like they way you are...this is for you...if you feel you are worth nothing...this is for you....if you lie, steal, cheat, kill...this is for you..if you pray this prayer and belive that Jesus will save you not the prayer... He promises that if you were to die today you will go to Heaven. It is free..the only thing in return He asks is for your heart....most importantly you will be saved......Pray this out loud...belive with your heart..Jesus i admit that I miss the mark (Sin) I believe that you died on the cross for me....I belive that you arose on the third day and are in Heaven come into my heart and be my only Lord recieve me into your family.in Jesus name Amen.

When I hung around the mega-church, I tried to. In my singing and prayer, but it never felt sincere or real like the love I have for real people whom I have real relationships with.

I mean, I know, you say you love him, but what Im doin is getting real witch ya. Honestly, do you feel real love? Its a lot of effort to imagine love for something you cant know.

You say the spirit fills you and then you know him...know him how..by some spasm of endorphines? Seriously now, I was a part of all that so talk real with me, dont spit me back some fundie cliches "you must open your heart"...say that to my face...say to my face I didnt sincerely try...cause that what it always comes down to right..."he didnt REALLY open his heart" .

God speaks to some differently...thats the next one right? Well, thats some hell of an advantage they got, cause if I heard him loud and clear like Moses on the mountain, everything else is super easy for there....

not liberals, that's for sure. They think they're going to stand in his holy place, and they believe so strongly that they are pure in heart, and that God is pleased with them. They always swear by everything that's false and they worship false idols every moment they breathe.

So who's going to climb the hill of the Lord? Umm, I'd say that only he who has clean hands and a pure heart will. He certainly does NOT lift up his sould to an idol, or swear by anything that's false.

One could argue that Adam and Eve were created perfect but their sin doomed us to imperfection. However, if they were truly perfect beings, wouldn't they be incapable of commiting sin in the first place?

We have a small missions chuirch of 30 people and it is a good church and like every church it has its problems.

What are ways to outreach to the community and what are godly ways to help this church grow.

We have a unique ministry where most people are handicapped.
We have recovered alcholics and single moms that come to our church.

There is also a lot of love in our church and unity and people don't go out of thier way to gossip.

I would like to see this church go forward in God and make a difference in this community.

A lot of Christians believe it is okay to go to war against a country with terrorism. Aren't we to follow the example of Christ?

If so, how does going to war against terrorism in line with scriptures?

With so many different religious beliefs and sects. It seems as though all you hear about is fighting and killing among each other, but however it also has brought people together. What is your view of religion as a whole, do you feel it keeps us moral as human beings, and gives us a reason to live (afterlife) or do you believe it is just a big institution that was created by the higher society to rule over the people and that we would be better off without it?

The way I see it is that many atheists seem to be so angry with their questions.
1. They are angry at God for his rules ect and don't want him messing in their lives.
2. They are so brainwashed about evolution and being primates, that God doesn't even come into their concept of living.
So which is it or is there another theory that I have missed

…When you see people being disrespectful of the beautiful planet you created for mankind?

I mean, like we might feel if we gave our children a mansion, and they broke out the windows, sold the shingles, chopped a hole in the roof, and built fires in the middle of the living room, and were crapping and pissing in the corners.

Do any of the judeo-christian religions (though the discussion is open to all faiths) have any qualms with the practices of BDSM (bondage, domination, sadism, and masochism)? I am trying to find out what makes these sexual practices taboo, even within the context of a traditional marriage.

Leviticus says homosexuality is wrong. My question is this... Doesn't Leviticus also say a child who swears at his or her own parent shall be put to death? Why is one taken literally, and not the other?
