Ever thought of this God Never changes his mind he always stays the same why do people say "well times are changing" God is an all knowing all seeing being. He doesn't change his mind. this is from a very reliable source. What I the Lord have spoken, I have spoken, and I excuse not myself; and though the heavens and the earth pass away, my aword shall not pass away, but shall all be bfulfilled, whether by mine own cvoice or by the dvoice of my eservants, it is the same.

P.S. who can tell me were that is from?

Leviticus 11:9-12 proclaims that the eating of shrimp is an abomination before God. Leviticus 18:22 declares the homosexual lifestyle to be an abomination before God.

Christians protest Gay Marriage. Do they also protest Red Lobster, or Long John Silvers?

Why or why not?

The Christian Bible proclaims the homosexual lifestyle an abomination in Leviticus 18:22. In Revelation 20:11-13 it is declared that all who do not have the blood of the savior Jesus are found guilty and sent to a Lake of Fire.


Do Christians desire to ban the marriage of Atheists, since the Atheist Lifestyle is an abomination?

why is it you ask people and not read the bible yourself ? You don't have nothing to lose but some time wasted and you would know the way we are to act and think..If your mind is already made up and noone can change it then you would have nothing to worry about,if you read the bible..I just thought of that and wondering why you don't read it yourself..

If there was someone running for president who stud for the same ideals you do and voted the way you would want them to in the past, but was practicing a different faith than your own, would you still vote for them? If you answered yes, what about a Mormon? (aka: LDS aka: Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints)

As you look through the Bible, there are only a couple of different male/female relationships that are found. There are father/daughter, husband/wife, brother/sister in the Lord (those born again that God has adopted), and a couple of references to engaged male/female. There aren’t any references to any type of courtship. Given the seriousness of a marriage relationship in the Bible, if Christ had desired a courtship type of relationship one might expect to see at least one reference. Rather there are many cautions to the single males and females on their conduct. One of the strongest example is found in 1 Corinthians 7:1 "Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: [It is] good for a man not to touch a woman." There are also many examples within the Bible about avoiding lust. Here are several.

2 Timothy 2:22 "Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart."
James 1:15 "Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
Matthew 5:28 "But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart."
James 1:14 "But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed."
Those that have dated have found it very difficult to avoid lust and the related temptations and far too often end up with additional sins like fornication. If you look at any of the data available today on pre-marital sex (even among Christians), I'm certain you'll agree, that while it's not impossible, dating certainly makes staying sexually pure until marriage a challenge. The other thought to consider is around the success of the dating system. Given that nearly 1/2 of all marriages today end in divorce, the process must not be ideal. Many that I've discussed this topics with agree that dating isn’t ideal, but question if there is any alternative. I'd offer the following to consider based on thoughts found in the Bible...

We believe that God created each of us and gave us a set of talents and weaknesses. (Genesis 5:2 “Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created”. And Isaiah 45:12 “I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, [even] my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.”) We also have the faith to believe that he is able to provide for all of His creation. (Matthew 10:29-31 "Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.") If he cares for the birds, certainly, He can care for each of us. If he cares for us and commits to provide all our needs, isn't is possible to also believe that if we need a spouse that he could also provide the ideal one. And that it's quite possible that because He made the spouse too, that He could do a better job of matching two up than anyone else? One key is that one must seek Him and His proposes first, then he'll provide all needs not just marriage. Sometimes we get it backwards. (Matthew 6:33 "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.")

I was raised in Church and I learned about Moses, Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Peter, Doubting Thomas and yes the story of Saul being blinded and changing his name to Saul but he was not emphasized. My point is he is not a central figure in most Christians minds yet if it wasn't for him, Christianity wouldn't have ever gotten off the ground as a World Religion. Why don't they have action figures of him in the toy room of Christian bookstores? Paul is the one who spread the "good news" and picked up where Jesus left off. He was killed for his beliefs. He fits the classic definition of a hero. Why isn't his story played up more?

A monk named Charles Darwin went to the Galapagos Island. He wrote a book entitled the Origin of the Species. Since then the Theory of Evolution has been shaped and developed, based on evidence to support a Natural Selection.

DNA, fossil records, etc. Carbon dating.

Since all these evidences have been gathered, and the Theory of Evolution becomes more a reality for an explanation,

What has happened to the human races beliefs in God?

If he revealed himself today, then we could record the "miracles" and analyse them properly, and if they were real we would not be able to explain them scientifically, leading to the hypothesis that he may be miraculous (we might not accept them as miracles, but we couldn't discount them either).

2000 years ago, they believed people ressurected when they rose from coma's. Why should we beleive the accounts from people who had not yet learned of scientific inquiry.

The bible could never be used as evidence in a trial, it's hearasy, and not real evidence.

Why would god risk having BILLLIONS of souls go to hell, rather than reveal himself?

Or is it all wrong to begin with. The bible is false.

I am someone who gives what he can, greets everyone he sees and believes that it is better to have a pure heart and talk dirty than to not talk dirty and have a heart that is evil. I don't think that it's thoughts of evil against people even though we are not perfect, I think the worst of it is the way I talk. I do dream of a literal hell of a lot more space stuff than the average person but I never wake up scared. I think I would like to take this step.

Why do pesky nobel prize winning scientists and reputable news agencies like Reuters, continue to report on the overwhelming evidence in support of the big bang?

Is this a world-wide CONSPIRACY designed to make the "young earth" creationists look silly?
OR,
Is it possible that maybe some of the most intelligent minds on earth are actually on to something?

I came upon Joel Osteen's show this Sunday on ABC Familly . He was discussing something about believing in yourself . I only saw the last 10 minutes of it but it was great! I have a hard time believing in my self , I have bi- polar. I am exploring relgion and thinking maybe it will help me towards my recovery. What do you think?
I have looked on the internet and the program guide on the statilite,
and can't seem to figure out when it comes on . I have dish network . I tuned into TBN at 10:30 last night and it wasn't on. I live in the mountain time zone ( new mexico) , Can you help me find the times it airs? I want to see the show again. But I guess I could deal with seeing it Sunday on ABC familly.
