That Keanu Reeves commits suicide in the film but doesn't go to hell for it. How do Christians feel about that, and should you still honour your father if he was Satan? How do you decide which laws to break and which to obey?

In any of your readings Have you come across something called

"The five steps to Spiritual enlightenment for reaching Jesus"-

A friend of mine sent me an email about this saying a preacher said it was in the bible: I was like never in my life have I heard that and I am an ex-Catholic who studied her bible and memorized it... Never have I seen that in the bible at all.


Any way Muslims, What is the punishment we get from Allah if we try to say something is in the Quran but is not? LOL (Please assume that I am an ignorant muslim for a minute)?

Thanks,
respectfully,
Muslimah!

Didn't die for any sins? And that every one is responsible for his own sins.

Sins are erased only by repent and good deeds... NOT killing and innocent man.

WAKE UP CHRISTIANS !!

In regards to this question; http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AtySqMXrXX1j00l7mtn6ElXsy6IX?qid=20061022171813AAhFnmX

I have a few questions concerning this. Do people think that only the religious abstain from sex before marriage? This user states “i mean think about it, sleeping wiv every guy u go out with" In my answer I said;

"I don't know if I should be offended by your comment. I'm an Atheist and I do NOT sleep with every guy I meet. It's called having self respect and morals.

I know PLENTY of Christians that sleep around and many non-christians that choose to wait til marriage. Religion has nothing to do with it!!!!"

Why is it that non religious people are viewed with less morals because they don't believe in God? I know many MANY Christians that sleep around and I know many MANY Non-Christians that are saving themselves for marriage!

Why do people make this distinction? How does having faith in God automatically give you better morals than others?

I am not praying for myself but rather for a sick kitten, in a no-kill feline sacurty. So does praying to God and the bless virgin really help? And does God really hear my pray?

This is what the bible says:

43: And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
-Luke, chapter 1

The bible says there is only one Lord, and that is the Lord our God.

This is not saying that Mary was mother to the trinity. What it is saying is that Jesus is God and that Mary became His mother when He was conceived in her womb.

Many books of the old testament and the Quran are the same , they certainly share a commonality ( possibly sumerian). Why is it that the god(s) of Abraham ( Allah and Jehovah) are not the same God seen through different eyes?

Ex: There's a chair in the room...I see it as green & so does my friend, another person sees it as red & so does his friend, a third person sees it as yellow, as does his friend. How can we possibly say that those who don't see the chair as being the same color we do are wrong?

In your opinion, should he make us somehow understand that he is a priest? He could write it in his profile. Should he make himself recognized by everybody just like in the real life when he wears the white collar? What I mean is, why wearing the white collar in the real life to be distinguished and here not? Think about the fact that in chat and all these pages he expresses his opinions on matters of faith and interpretations of the sacred texts as the bible, should he make himself recognized by the others in this case?

In your opinion, what is the meaning of this symbol?

Here is the description that Giovanni has of Jesus in his vision:

Revelation 1:12I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned I saw seven golden lampstands, 13and among the lampstands was someone "like a son of man," dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest. 14His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. 15His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters. 16In his right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance.
