I am a Born again Christian, Baptised in the Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit filled woman of God.
My son Is also, since he was 7 years old.
I know I will get all kinds of answers here, but just remember,I am talking about my son here, he could be your son too.
I know the, Holy BibIe I do believe in it and trust it.
How dose a Christian single mom deal with something like this ?
I love my son, unconditionally, but not this, or any sin.
He's a kind, beautiful person, giving, cool guy.
I have suspected his condition since he was,1 year old, and now he is 16. He likes girls too, so he's bi-sexual.
Many ministers say this is a choise, a not a behavour,I use to believe this too,but now I don't know.
I am confussed, and this I know is Not of God.
Born again, Holy Spirit filled Christians, of gay kids,friends and family members need only to answer this.
Only if you are in my shoes could you possible understand. By the way, this applies to Jewish, and Muslims also.
Help....

Just like what happened to Pope John Paul I? That might be the only hope for a new peace with the Muslim community.

Hi, I have recently learned that for millions of people the bible is FACT, and that every word in it is true. Furthermore, many people say that the Bible is full of prophesies, ( i.e., book of Revelation, etc) , unfortunately God has chosen- for reasons best known to himself- to make these prophesies rather obscure and hard to understand.

Can someone give me an example of a prophesy from the bilble which was written in CLEAR, UNEQUIVOCABLE terms and which has come to be true?

Muslims boast, brag, and proudly claim that THEIR religion is the fastest growing religion in USA. I checked it out, and guess what? It appears to be just another Muslim LIE!!!

Look at these figures

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_United_States#Religious_affiliation

Which religions are growing faster than Islam in USA?
Isn't it interesting that Hinduism is growing more than twice as fast as Islam? How do you Muslims explain this? Is it just another "Jewish conspiracy"?

Or is this just the proclaimed apocalypse in complex metaphorical translation?
I want to know how God will keep the earth inhabitable when so far when he hasn't done much to even prove his existance. I believe he's up there probably still working some miracles but he's just given up on our pathetic human race. Probably waiting for us to die so he can start all over again like he did with the dinosaurs.

Many years ago I attended a witches covern, but the witch that organised it has to move away and since college and then full-time work it got pushed to the back.

I've always been very spiritual since various experiences as a child, and I am keen to start practicing wicca again.

I'd like to know how this has changed the life of other witches?

If we analize the death of Jesus we can see that he knew he will die and he didn't prevent it. He actually commit a suicide. He chosed death and not life.

by telling atheists they are going to hell is insulting them or scaring them? you might as well tell them the boogey man is going to get them. if you tell them that after you get control of the government through bribery, blackmail and insideous pressure, your 'christiban' regime will burn them publically for heresey on a pyre of books and works of art you might get some results. but that would be letting the cat out of the bag. ps would you let cats out of bags , as they are witches familiars would they have to burn too.

You know you just hear of so much crime, not just robberies, but killing and so much toward children. Killing, raping, kidnapping, going into their homes even, what is it with children? Only a devil would do some of these crimes, sellilng them into sex slavery? When I was young, my Dad used to let me off in a downtown city, and come and pick me up. I shopped for Christmas, with a small amount of money. He told me to be at a certain corner and I did. No one thought about Pedephiles, killers, and such then, but today, it is everywhere. Christ warned of if one hair on a child's head is harmed, he was going to do something, (send them to hell) , I guess or worse, if there is such a thing. I was about 12 yrs old in Dallas, Texas. which was over 50 yrs ago. What are your thoughts?

Before you answer, let us look at where this originated. Leviticus.

In this passage, it also states many things to be abominations, among them; Bunnies, Hamburgers, Shaving, Shrimp, Vegetable Gardens, and Polyester. So, as long as you continue to do any of those, I'll be seeing you in hell too!

and a religion spread by the sword' he only meant it to raise intellectual discourse which is evident from the academic gathering he was addressing. Little did he know that his statements would be hijacked by evil, inhuman and murderous people- who have little or no tolerance for other religions- to achieve their nefarious interests. Is this Islam? Are religious leaders around the world calling for the head of Pope Benedict-even after his apology- and all Christians truly Muslims? A religion that adopts violence as a means of discussion or converting people to its fold in my opinion has no place in mordern society.Conversion to any religion should be as a result of intellectual and theological convictions and not a sword.Those that resort to violence to convince should not in any way be tolerated.Be they Jew,Christian or Muslim.
Folks, what do you think of the ongoing violent protests in reaction to the Holy Fathers statements? Does it reflect the spirit of Islam?Was the Pope right?
