Do you think he'd be pissed off that people took his words and warped them to empower the men over the women and the rich over the poor?
Do you think he'd support comdom use in Africa where AIDS is spreading like wildfire and thousands of children are becoming orphans?
Do you think he'd cry at the thought that George Bush murders in his name and supports Israel because he things that will bring the rapture.

Would Jesus, dare I say, flush the bible down the toilet? http://flushaholybook.com

I would appreciate some serious answers from knowledgeable Catholics.

A couple of years ago, the Catholic Church signed a document with the Lutheran Church, where they agreed that we are saved by faith alone. But in the Gospel, St. James says that we also need works. Also, in a section of the Gospel, at the Last Judgment, Jesus says something like "I was hungry and you fed me; I was naked and you clothed me..."

So does the Catholic Church believe that we are we saved by faith alone or not?

So my friend Elena (she's Jewish) was watching R.R.'s new TV show & she kept telling me how she can tell Rachael is Jewish. I always thought she was Italian..... Elena then took a vote of everyone in our dorm she could find (wound up about 50%/50%) to guess if she is Jewish or not.
Anyway I never had Jewish friends before coming to college & maybe it's a little culture shock? but I am wondering a few things:


1. why do Jewish people sometimes get mistaken for Italian, or Italian for Jewish? I've wondered this for a while but didn't want to insult anyone so didn't ask.

2. Why is it that SOME Jewish people seem really interested in other people' ethnicity? Like this same girl, (Elena), when I tell her I met someone new, she will immediately ask "What's her last name?" , then "Is she Jewish?"

3. Is any dark eyed, dark haired European (whose name is not obviously Italian, or Irish, etc.) labeled as possibly Jewish ? (by those that label, not me!)


have a nice night

Why do we stomp all over a person's belief and fealings as if they are not even human? Those who truly beleive in GOD knows HE/SHE/IT has given us emotions and that can dictate the actions of tommoroww because it happened yesterday. Emotions lead us to kill the innocent but on the brighter side give us the ability to apreciate the person standing next to you. Let alone the person on the other side of the globe. GOD gave us the emotion to cry and laugh. To mourn and worry. Then why do we abuse the next person severely by not even aknowledging a simple thing as an emotion? As if GOD does not have any? Christians believe we are made in HIS image. Muslims believe we can be reflections(ayotollas). Then why can't we do a simple thing as to just aknowledge maybe we just don't know? And work for a better tomorow because it is coming. It came yesterday and will come again next year. When will we wake up?

Signed,
One fed up brother

where does heaven get its gold? its pearly gates? i assume they have oysters in heaven... do you think if the bible inventors knew what platinum was, they would include it in the bible?

if there's streets of gold, there should be gravity, but walking would be so boring, if we had carriages, then we must have something to pull it with... do they have animals in heaven?

what about "in my father's house are many mansions"?
it assumes that we need them? what for? for flaunting how many souls you have saved, depending on the decorations in your mansion?" who would care?

If you can trully see the love God has for his son, and the love Jesus has for us. It's larger than Earth, more colorful, no brown leave, no shadows, no death, just light, everything is alive, even the abortion babies are all there, animals, plants, trees, mountains, river of life, copper color fruit gives you strength so you can withstand God's Glory. When you arrive in Heaven, you will be wearing either the robe of righteousness or a gown, robe means you get to see God. gown means, God is compassionate, and took mercy on you, if you didn't learn it on Earth, you'll learn it in Heaven, it's great to be in Heaven, there is so much more to learn when we arrive, who knows, perhaps there is 10 more levels???
WHAT DO YOU THINK HEAVEN IS TO YOU??????

1 Peter 1:15-16

But just as he who called you is holy, so BE HOLY in all you do; for it is written: "Be holy, because I am holy."

Heb 12:14

Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to BE HOLY; without holiness no one will see the Lord.


QUESTION:

What does it mean to you to "be holy"?

How does this call to "be holy" impact your Christian life?
