Religion & Spirituality - 11 September 2006

Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and (YE) shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

My question is why are there few christian church that do this?

And I hear the one's that do, people speak (most) terrible against them.

If you believe in Jesus Christ and the Cross and rose again on the Third day,
and the Day of Penecoast,

Why not what Jesus Christ Appointed Apostals preached about that day?

Peter Said this, and Peter at the gate to Heaven......

I'm interested in the history and realize strong religious views are involved.
When / how did the Islamic world gain control of what Jews refer to as their holy land?
When and why is it considered holy to them?

Any references available online would be appreciated.

I mean it's what's inside that counts right? Rarely do you see an ugly with a pretty. In a world created by God, this seems kind of irrational. Turns out, it doesn't matter what's inside if you're ugly. People judge you based on looks. Ugly people get screwed no matter what's on the inside. Do you think God would make a world like this? I think science and evolution explain people being mean to others a lot better than the Bible does.

And proceed to say things about "God saving us" and praying for our souls? Especially when the occasion doesn't call for it, or they answer with a "you need help" attitude? Some on here have even resorted to just gay-bashing us. I really want to know why? No hateful answers either people!

If there is know hell for the non believers after they die, what does this mean

Luke 16;24

And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Laz'-a-rus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

Then what does Gnashing of Teeth mean, if there not a reall Hell to pay with suffering?

For example....Nearly all of the millions of people in Iran are muslim. However, If one of their babies was somehow adopted and moved to the U.S. to be raised by southern babtists....there is a very strong chance that the child would grow up to be a babtist. Very few people have actually studied all religions before making a decision. I find it disturbing that so many people follow and defend their religion not because they studied, researched and made a choice, but because they were indoctrinated.

About 75% of the human genome consists of useless junk that can't be used for building proteins because it is missing key sections. The prevailing theory among biologists is that these pseudo-genes are the result of RNA transcription errors - the natural product of our imperfect gene copying mechanism making many copies over many millions of years.
The chances of getting that many errors in the past 6,000 years is about the same as the chances of a new species of turkey evolving in time for Thanksgiving.

So I'm wondering, since you know better than any biologist how life emerged: Why did God, who makes no mistakes, create Adam with all this useless crap in his DNA? Was it another way of "testing our faith", just like those phony dinosaur bones?

For by grace (underserved favor-u dont earn it) are you saved through faith (trust), and that not of yourself, lest anyone should boast.
Ephesians 2 vs 8&9

Revelation 19-22nd chapters describes hell and heaven of joy-hell is swearin torment forever with gnshin teeth--and Jesus says we go there for rejecting His word and salvation (John 12 chapter especially verse 48 write it down ok

i prayed and let Jesus in my heart to forgive my sins and help me do better-amen he said he would in Revelation 3 vs 19&20 i got to go now or i will get in trouble-have a nice sleep ok -thanks

-even if ur mean to me about this question--i pray Jesus by his precious blood binds satan from u and you get jolted and he fills you with peace joy and true love and mercy and grace and alot more stuff all good -in Jesus name amen

i was addicted to porn-which is plastic prostitutes-not real true love-and when i asked Jesus in my heart he forgave me and i threw it all away and i am happy now and i dont got any porn-and i feel clean inside and very happy too.

and i use to get high on weekends but drinkin beer and stuff-and i only smelled pot once but it buzzed me-i didnt exhale-aldulterator clinton said he didnt inhale -so i pray alot for him and moika she is a bad girl but he is worse cause he lied and i think he should have been grown up enought in that house that is white not to do bad stuff against his wife and well whatever

but i dont drink no more and im happier the bible says to be not drunk on wine wherein is excess but to be filled with the Holy 'Spirit." and i stay free and i can talk alot but not say swear words and bad stuff--so its fun and i talk alot about Jesus-
but if i see that person alot i only say alittle -but if only one time to see them-i tell them all about Jesus and salvation &pray2

Let's say that you're praying for your grandmother to survive her cancer. Let's also say that the type of cancer she has causes half of the people who get it to die. You pray every day for her to get well. One day the doctors tell her that her body is starting to fight of the cancer. You rejoice and thank God that your prayers were answered. At the end of the year, a scientist tallys up all the deaths and survivals from this specific form of cancer for the year. He sees that 10 people lived and 10 people died (it's a rare form of cancer alright!). If God had really saved your grandmother, the figures wouldn't have been 50/50 unless God killed someone else who had the cancer who didn't have people praying for them. If God actually answer prayers, we would detect strange readings in statistics. That is unless he did something else to counter balance his interference so that we wouldn't notice. So, with that argument, does God save people from dying?
