Religion & Spirituality - 20 September 2006

Now I can't speak for people misquoting anything but the Bible, since I am not falmilar with the Koran or the Hindu or Buddhist teachings. I see it a lot on here, but I don't even bother with correcting the person because they won't get it anyways.

But can you put a number on it? I would say 15-20 a day I see and I don't view too many religios questions.

I'm am asking this question to challenge other believers to think about these things from a biblical perspective. Regarding Christians and rights...I understand that we are to abide by the laws of the land, but what about when the laws of the land contradict the laws of God? Also, isn't the surrendering of one's earthly rights for the sake of living for JESUS the basic foundation of Christianity?

James 4:4,7
4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
7 Submit yourselves therefore to God...
Romans 12:1
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

Regarding politics. If we put our faith in trust in the Lord, and HE is our provider, why the political involvement? How do you know if the candidate elect is of God?

I've just been wondering, why is the Christian faith so targeted by so-called comedians, and yet other religions are left well alone, in particular the Muslim faith. Surely a little joke aimed at your religion should be taken as a joke.
Similarly, why don't Christians stand up for themselves- Muslims/Sikhs/Hindus would not stand for any blasphemous remark, so why do Christians.

All this terrorism seems to be coming back on them a lot. Fair enough a few extremist muslims are causing problems but I feel sorry for the good muslims who have to suffer the backlash. Does anyone else feel the same?

I've heard an ex-Muslim say it is converting to Christianity? He also said the reason why people strap bombs to themselves and want to kill all the infadels "Christians" and have a holy Jihad is the quron states that is how you get to heaven. How can you moderate Muslims who live by the Quron deny this? And claim it is a peace loving religion?
Jesus died for your sins so you wouldn't have to die this way. You can not atone for your own sins. Jesus Christ came to die for everyone sins, this is God plan and way for salvation.
Do you all believe you can die for the sins of this world and make right the evil in it?

I love the Lord and have been a christian for over 21 years, I redeciated my life to the Lord 17 years ago.

I want to become more passionate about Jesus and I also want to have zeal and be enthuistaic about church not treat church as an option, but as a godly priority.

I have also had some circumstances that really hurt me and "cut me down to size" and for quite some time I was mad and angry at God.

What are godly ways to grow in God and continue to seek him 1st?

Please no sarcastic answers.

the cartoons now the Pope's speech, criticise them and they will burn cars and churches and kill innocent people, when will muslims realise they are ignorant and irrational? When will they realise they are violent and evil?

When will they realise Mohammed is the false prophet?

I'm interested about Islam. I've read the Quaran and some supplementary reading, but I'm still confused. What exactly do Muslims believe will happen in the end times? I've read everything from; it's believed that the world can not end until we are all one- but I've also heard that Muslims believe that the religion will be misrepresented and chaos will ensue because of a minority of people. Which is accurate? Or am I completely off? Please let me know. I'm very interested to find out. I know there are going to be some ignorant answers and people that just want to be hateful, but let's try to be nice, okay? I want a real answer, from someone who knows Islam. If I can get at least one detailed good and clear answer, then I'll be happy. Thank you all very much!

If it is called conversion when we Christians try to get people to believe that there is a God what is it called when people try to get Christians to believe there is no God?

"And He will judge between the nations,

And will render decisions for many peoples;

And they will hammer their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks.

Nation will not lift up sword against nation,

And never again will they learn war"

A friend of mine has been separated from his wife for seven months. They have children together, however she was the one who abandoned them.

They are going through all the divorce proceedings - during this time he has met an old high school friend whom has always shown interest in him.

They have agreed to go out on a few dates when everything is cleared and he is ready. He says that she isn't rushing him into anything serious - but she is there for him to talk to. Which is good in my opinion.

The thing is he thinks that he is being unfaithful to his wife for having feelings for this woman since he is still officially married. He says that it is the devil is trying to tempt him.

I say that it is a good thing that he has found someone to lean on. I am afraid that the devil may be trying to cloud his judgement into thinking a good thing is actually a bad thing.

I was wondering what your opinion would be? Do you think that he is being unfaithful? Or do you think he is in the wrong because he is still (at least on paper) married?
