...since He said, "The soul that sins ..it shall die". ??

So if He forgives you without anyone dying for your sins He would be a liar.

Do you see now why He had to provide Someone to die on your behalf".?

sorry for sayin stupid-some have great inteligence but the bible says-"The fool hath rejected the God of the Bible" Psalms---being a fool is stupid

Claiming themselves to be wise in their wisdom against the bible, they became fools.

If the Pope reads a medieval manuscript that says Islam is all about violence.

Then the Muslims threaten to blow up churches and kill because of this.

Isn't what the Pope said proven as true?

According to a new documentery called "Rape of the Soul" it's not the priests fault that they molest little boys, it's the Satanic "subliminal images" in the Church's artwork that caused them to do it. Way to go, guys. Keep on passing the buck.

I just ordered this book. Amazon has nothing but good reviews of it and I've read some of Robert Spencer's stuff before and usually he's good. Does anyone whose read the book have any thoughts on it?

Why Do many people here carry that hatred towards islam & muslims.
Islam means > PEACE

i'm muslim,& it's the only thing i'm SO proud of,my God is your God ,& the God of jesus > mentioned in Qura'an

islam cares about people's mental & physical health,people's relationships,life & orders us to spread peace everywhere

we aren't terrorists,we're just defending our people,our counries.
it's just your media that gives a bad idea about islam

1. Alcoholics & pigs are not allowed (ONLY in islam)
cuz they are harmful ! &you people know it ! it's proven by health professionals!

2. Comitting suicide oer killin some1 for no reason,is a great sin,(here in the U.S ,frankly,no 1respects others' lives! taking somebodies life for a couple of dollars is as simple as breathin')!

3. Don't u believe that we'll all be gathered at the sight of (ALLAH),in the last days
we'll all be sent 2 life after death,Allah will FAIRLY judje us..we'll go either 2 heaven or to hell

Peace & Love

the atonement-the blood sacrifice forgives for sins--"without the shedding of blood there is no atonement for sins."

Jesus is called the lamb of God-John chapter 1

JEWISH AND MUSLIM AND ALL--Moses Thus saith the Lord, the life of the flesh is in the blood and i have given it to make atonement for your sins.

some claim other sacrifices works-but all the people of Israel had the high priest offer the lamb blood sacrifice once a year to atone for their sins--today either G-d lied and left us with no blood sacrifice-or its --???

For by grace (undeserved favor) are ye saved through faith (trust) and that not of yourself its the gift of God lest any one should boast." Ephesians 2 vs 8&9

I mean, the Geneva Conentions say "outrages upon personal dignity, in particular, humiliating and degrading treatment", but what does that really mean?

If I wanted to dress a prisoner in a clown suit, so what, right? Or dress a Jew in a pig suit, that's fine, right? Or have a Muslim stand on a box with wires touching his genitals and tell him if he steps off he will be electrocuted to death? Big deal.

I mean, what is "peronal dignity" anyway? What is "“cruel, inhumane and degrading"? Surely we have to have all of this clearly defined so we know when we are torturing someone, we are doing it correctly.

And really, "waterboarding"? It sounds like something you would do on a Carnival Fun Ship. It can't be that bad.

gambling is a sin, yet they go to bingo, play lottery, go to the casinos, and play online games.? the dictionary defines gambling as a game of chance...so....is it wrong for the "hypochristians" to say that gambling is a sin, but it's ok if they do it, because it is for "entertainment"?

If Jesus, our Christ and savoir, traveled through time to play in a rock band (who wouldn't), what instrument would he play? Would he play a guitar shaped like a harp or would he use his halo as a tamborine? A bass or a hamonica?

We all know who ultimately got the blame for them. But how did they actually start? Do you think your answer is biased? Is there another possibility?

I've heard a lot of different things, but as a whole it seems to me that the Church was defending Christian lands at first. That it was in fact the Moorish invaders that started the hostilities. I can't seem to get a strait historical account though. Anyone have any thoughts?

The character that describes God as a "holy other" or "holy purity" or "holy holy holy" "the superlative of ultimate holiness. Fear can cause us to explain a mystery, that is something we don't know. However holiness, even set apart is only one aspect of biblical holiness, the other aspect is a God who is unknowable, infinite, incomprehensible. The concept of holiness shows that God is immutable, unchangable. So how did these concepts come about, in the biblical record, if god is only a creature of our own fears?

For example, in this question we have xtians stating that Paul wrote down what he heard Jesus say......UM excuse me...Paul never met Jesus! Paul was not an apostle!

Why don't they at least study and know their own faith?!?

It's quite irritating to me.

What is peoples opinion of the comments of the Archbishop's statement that childhood has been killed by computer games, advertising and junk food? Also, what do YOU think should be done about it.
For me, the problem is a collapse in the teaching and upholding of traditional Biblical moral teaching. This is primarilly due to the secularisation and stigma that has been attached to Christian belief, and the secularisation of schools- many schools including the one I went to here in Hartlepool did teach about world religions, but little about the religion I now love, Christianity. What I learnt about this country's faith I learnt from religious texts (in Latin), the Bible and the internet.
That and a capitalist rather than a socialist approach to politics means that childhood in this country is history. This doesn't occur in many other European countries, so why here?
Opinions please, on my ideas and the speech made by Dr Rowan Williams.

I seldom watch television but last night there was a program on Discovery about the Waco, Texas incident and the Brach Davidians.
To those that saw the program I am speaking of, what are your thoughts?
