Religion & Spirituality - 21 August 2006

I committed adultry in the year 2004 and reported myself to the elders of the church and my wife and I was escomminicated from the church. I repented before God and my wife, the elders too.It was really the worst moment in my christian life. Since 2004 I have been moving behind the elders to restore me in the body of Christ the church. It is a surprise that up till today I am not restored in the church. I know and believe that God has forgiven me, my wife on her part has confessed that she has forgiven me.You know that what is bind on earth is bind in heaven. I am really suffering but no one is listening. I donot want to go to a different church.If God was to treat us as I am being treated I don't know what will become of a christian life. I have repented and I am not living in sin. What shoulld I do?
Please don't answer if you know you are not God fearing.

.. and other post-rapture questions.

1. Will there be sports in heaven? How will one side lose if they're all perfect?

2. Will heaven be diversified? People like living in areas with familiar architecture, decoration, food, etc. Will there be a Little Italy or Chinatown in heaven, or will we be forced into one overriding culture?

3. Will there be deserts? Will there be frozen tundras? How about swampy marshlands, or deep dank cave systems? Some people find vast beauty in these places.

4. Will all animal species be in heaven? If so, what about insects or even microscopic bacteria? If not, what's the criteria... cuteness?

5. Will there be heavy metal in heaven? What about gangster rap? Music isn't about just the melodies, lyrics play a large part in why people enjoy songs. Will whole genres cease to be, or will everything just be about how super God is?

6. Will there be seasons? I love winter, but it involves much death. Fall too.

Basically David Koresh did similar to what Jesus did. Convinced people to follow him, said he was divine. If we had crucified him, would that have martyred him and created a new religion of Koreshians?

I have my personal beliefs about it, I just wanted to see what others thought.

Personally I don't know whether or not he did, however if he did, and if it was Mary Magdelene, then it would be acceptable, becuase Jesus would not have lusted after her until they were married, because the Bible teaches that Jesus was sinless, and that it is acceptable for people to lust after their spouses.

Xenus spaceships turned out to be old Soviet knock-offs and I dont really feal comfortable zooming around the universe in those things.

So Ive decided to convert to Pastafarianism. Ive read up on the religion and it seems to hold a lot of water. They have even corrolated the decline of Pirates to Global Warming!!!!!

Did you know that we have 75% of our DNA in common with Apes, but we have 99.99999% of our DNA in common with Pirates?

The FSM, (meatballs be upon Him) is the one and only TRUE god.

What excuse do you have for NOT becoming a Pastafarian?

If all you can do is bash christianity why are you answering the questions here? Why come here and tell people what you think they should or should not do? Heres a thought...Since your not a christin and arent educated in the subject matter why not go spread your hate somewhere else....mabe a topic other than christianity would be best for you. Ive read your posts and answers to others Qs. And all Ive seen is how you like to degrade and put other people down. Get Saved and Get a life! Oh and if you cant properly answer this question without being snotty, then dont. Try spreading more Love and youll get more friends!

If your not part of the soulution then you are part of the problem!

a form of insanity? If you put you hand in a fire and it hurts, and five minutes later, you put your hand back into the fire,(without changing the circumstances of the initial insertion) wouldn't you expect to be burned? Then why repeat it?

If we turn all of our "Thous" into "it's" it becomes easier to destroy, profane, and desregard them. No one thinks twice about destroying an "it" but we tend to reconsider doing so to a "Thou."
Can you grasp my thought and if so what are your feelings.What are your "Thous"?

Have you ever noticed how many people are ready to make rediculous ("uneducated") statements about how much pain and suffering Christianity has caused, and yet never stop to think about all of the wonderful things that are done on a daily basis in the name of Christianity, how many Christian charities there are, how many Christian hospitals there are, how many Christian missionaries there are around the world feeding the poor and giving free medical services, effecting millions of people's lives in a positive way daily? Those of you who think Christianity is so terrible have never truly been involved in the real thing!

I'm indebted to another answerer for inspiring this question. When answering a question about whether or not we're living in the End Times, this answerer mentioned that no-one...not even the angels...knew when Jesus was due to return.
Does that mean he's gonna wake up one morning, write "End of The World" on his To Do list, and take everybody by surprise?
Can you imagine the chaos in Heaven, and Hell, come to that.
Angel of the Waters, where are you? Well get back from Hawaii pronto, this is It. Where are the Horsemen of the Apocalypse? what do you mean Death's traded the horse in for a Harley? How's that gonna look on the post-Rapture DVD?
My real question I guess is this: is anyone just a little disconcerted that what we're dealing with here is someone so inconsiderate that he's just gonna drop in unannounced with all his friends one day, without giving us the chance to pick the place up a little or get some snacks in? And he's supposed to be the saviour of the world??

I've rejected the Bible for YEARS. None of it makes sense to me, none of it seems real. One of the turning points for me was when I read Pauls first letter to Timothy and saw the attitude toward women, which simply made me angry at God. He made me intelligent and strong and creative and then told me I had no right to teach a man? I had pretty much let it go - moved on in my spiritual life - but in the news today they quoted Timothy 1 and I was surprised that it still hurt... somehow those words still have God behind them to me. Any tips from ex-Christians or understanding Christians who won't preach to me?
