I believe that we are to strive to be perfect as Christ was but I also believe that this is an ongoing goal. One day I may achieve perfection but on that day I shall go home. I believe that the journey to perfection is a lifetime journey. I am not able to look for perfectiion in another as I am too busy attempting to overcome my own imperfections. These are my thoughts what are yours?

I've seen some catholics and protestants hate the latin and black people.. why.. I was thinking the christians follow the jesus words like this one love you each other like I do.. or something like that.. or the words where Saint Paul says there is not difference between greek and jew in front of God...I dont see the christianity will be very lovely with all the people making differences betwen black,latin and white.. rich and poor people sitting in difference places in their churches, asking for money for the prayers ect...

Lesser Jihad being military type war. Are the clerics who have called for Jihad widely respected, and are these Jihad a fact with the majority of Muslims? Who exactly, are the Jihads called against as it applies to the USA and the West in general? Who is obligated, or not obligated to participate in Jihad?
Thanks.

i think we should all stop judging people. I came to this conclusions not because God inspired me but from own experience. I know some really sweet girl she's so nice but she's afraid of God she has lost her virginity. She gave up on trying to save herself because the people around her branded her a slut so now she sleeps with any joe and here is her excuse "well i already f*cked up anyways" It makes me want to cry. I want to bring her back to Christ. How can i? She feels terrible about herself

I personally think any rational human being who believes in heaven and hell and walking on water is pretty cazy....and there is no evidence to back it up....so why believe it?

Hanging a P.aki swowly and watching them suffer. Or shooting a 2 year old P.aki and them dying quickly, but doing it in front of their mother and then shooting her after.

The map is located at :
http://www.blueletterbible.org/images/maps/Otest/world.html
I have been re-making it in Photoshop, because it is a pitiful excuse for a map (in my opinion). I've been attempting to figure out a word that LOOKS like "Fardim"; this word can be found in the Sinai region, just east from the Nile delta. The Hebraic settlers in this region were generally Edomites, and I've tried going verse by verse in Genesis and other places, scanning the text in hopes of finding a name that matches with what this word looks like. I give up! Do you know what it says?

Why in this society homosexuality is condemned but most people are perfectly fine with pre-martial sex? The Bible condemns both stating it's against God's plan. This doesn't add up to me.

You are who you are for a reason.
You're part of an intricate plan.
You're a precious and perfect unique
design,
Called God's special woman or man.
You look like you look for a reason.
Our God made no mistake.

The parents you had were the ones
he chose,
And no matter how you may feel,
They were custom-designed with God's
Plan in mind,
And they bear the Master's seal.

No, that trauma you faced was not
easy.
And God wept that it hurt you so;
But it was allowed to shape your heart
So that into his likeness you'd grow.

You are who you are for a reason,
You're been formed by the Master's
rod.
You are who you are, beloved,
Because there is a God!

Muslimsalways misuse the Western values and democracy.Whenever any Liberal person protest over the Cartoonic appearance of muslim woman in veil,they start demonstrating and talk about Human Freedom but when a Western woman in Muslim countries ask her freedom to wear miniskirt on beach they say that this is Islamic land so foreigners must Respect local culture.If they want Freedom of Dress for muslimwoman in West,they must give Western woman the same freedom of dress in Muslim lands,But Muslims only know their feelings and least bother about other,s emotions.

LIMA — Police are looking for the home and owner of a 4-foot, hand-carved wooden statue of Jesus that could be worth $4,000 found earlier this month at Bresler Reservoir.

The statue, which appears to be made of walnut from various boards glued together, was found Oct. 11. It has a clear-coat finish such as varnish.

Police have had the statue, which is Jesus in a robe, locked in their evidence room since it was found, Lima police Lt. Jim Baker said.

take a bible so full of inconsistencies and contridictions seriously?
it says one thing in one part and then says the complete oppisite in another. it does this over and over.
i am not saying it isn't a good book as a guide for morals but i don't believe it can be a book inspired by god with so many contridictions. or would god contridict himself?
