I have been called by the great magnificent God to be a missionary. I am excited about what God has in store in my life, and I can't wait, to get there. I am still trying to figure out where, and when, and I know in God's time, it WILL happen. I don't want to do the wrong thing, and stand in the way of someone coming to know the Lord. So, if there is ANYONE who would be willing to pray about this, i would really appreciate it.

May God truly bless you!

Please, thin before you put down something. if you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all!

They're works displayed publicly all over the place.

why do christinas feel as if they are better than anyone on this earth their for going around telling people "you're going too hell etc " i feel as if , the lord is the only one who can judge us based on our acts and who we are as a person.If god truely loved everyone like the bible claims then why can't we sin and ask for forgiveness the next day without having too go through this big ceremony of things.why everything we do is ? why are we gods enimies before we become saved. why does god let the devil get too us ?? why cant ge just destroy the devil... why can't homosexuals be accepted for who they are.why cant a murderer change his life around ??? someone please help me.because these questions really have me afraid of religion.

If you believe this truth, then the rest of the bible should fall right into place. If you do not believe, then why do you wast time with arguing with believers? It just seems to me like a waste of energy. Do you know anyone who has changed their belief because a Yahoo Answers?

Just curious.

I need some inspiration....

.... But isn't the fact that there is such a great diversity of faiths / religions / creeds (some arguably more sophisticated than others) out there, among ALL cultures of the world (primitive or otherwise), the perfect confirmation in support of the hypothesis that religions are in reality manmade phenomena / spiritual inventions? … I realize that religious/theological discussions can often lead to heated arguments and controversial viewpoints. Again, I am NOT making a judgmental and/or comparative statement regarding anyone’s religion here, I am merely asking a question based on factual observations. … Serious answers only please. ... Thank You!

It got sprang on me this evening at church that I would be leading our bible study class on Wednesday and the topic is beatitudes found in Matthew chapter 5. That doesn't leave me with much time to prepare very much so I'm asking for any insight or information that you might think helpful. Thanks in advance.

We only have a short time on this planet. But i'd hate to think that my full potential has only one lifetime to fully flourish and that if i miss one oppurtunity people will never know me for who i truly am. Why are we here if we only have such a short ammount of time to maximize our potential and make use of it? Surely some other place exists when we die a place where all of this would of meant something.

I'm not a religious person - i don't feel i have to be. But i certainly hope there will be a place to reflect on EVERYTHING when we die - whether it's a stereotypical view of Heavan or not, i don't know. But i just want a place where we can all exist together, minus the time limit. That would be Heavan to me.

Sorry for being so weird, i'm just having one of those moments right now.

God can get around it because he's all omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient...omni-omniful. But Satan as a limited consciousness, raises all sorts of questions about Identity. Seems a little beyond d pale to believe there's an actual personality of total cosmic evil out there....so which is it? Has satan become as abstract as his creator?

an art teacher was fired for "exposing children to a nude"
where? in a PUBLIC MUSEUM.
the kids went on a field trip, and I guess they saw the statue of David or something like that.
OH NO!!!!!!

Imagine if the teacher took them to Rome to see works of Christian art. LOTS of breasts and penises there.

do you think that she'd have gotten fired under that circumstance? I doubt it.



have religious conservatives lost their minds?

I was just thinking about how the Blessed Mother changed life eternal by simply saying, "yes". How would Jesus have come into existence if Mary had said, "no"?

If a god can do anything, can he/she/it possess a shoe? Like a living shoe, that then terrifies a nation.

It says in Daniel that the "ships of Chittim" will come to Babylon
in the last days.
My research indicates that the Chittim were the Atlanteans, and
the Red race was the dominant race at that time.
They migrated to the Americas, Northern Africa, and Spain.
The Basques of Spain are said to be descended from Atlantis.
Bible "scholars" say they don't know who the Chittim are. But
the dictionary has a reference to chittimwood, which is a type
of American wood.
The Chittim, the land of the Red race, The UNITED STATES?
