If you believe that the stories in the bible are literal,even you must realise it is physically impossible for a man (Noah for example) to live to be 600 years old.
If you believe the stories are metaphorical, then they are not TRUE.That being the case, how can you be so sure that any of it is based on fact?

Last night, while talking with a friend, I realized something. I found what I was looking for!!! I realized that I found 'it'. My friend can be best described as 'a soul struggling for answers'. We were talking about the dangers the world faces with terrorism and fanatical, nuclear capable, leaders of rogue countries. My friend, is very concerned that we may face more terrorist attacks in our country.. . the U.S. He's very frustrated with the proliferation of HATRED towards us. In the midst of all the 'worries' he had, I suddenly realized that, although I am truly concerned as well, I don't 'worry' about it. I know that if all these terrible things do happen, then surely Jesus is only a minute away. I've always known this, but last night was different. Last night, I 'felt true inner-Peace'. Thinking it and feeling it are very different. I hope for all, that you too, 'find' this PEACE. What a blessing. Thank the Lord, Jesus Christ. Are your eyes and ears OPEN to finding this Peace?

Is it possible that since there is not much faith needed to get things done, that the real important ingredients, the acting, the profession of that faith and it back to us in a gathered sense are the real ingredients hiding behind the scenes? If we but forgive the kindness, actively listenning to one another and empathizing and sympathizing and affirming the sources for moments of only begotten witness amongst each other and being humble enough when we do righteous works to ask others to discern us, saying like Jesus did, "Who do you say that I am?" would get us the healing power we would all like to deserve?

When the rich young ruler asked Jesus "What must I do to inherit eternal life", why did Jesus mention the law?

The young man went away sad, why didn't Jesus stop him and shout, "Wait!, just believe in me, and all will be better"

I have lost a job due to layoffs. I am single mid 20s. I would really like to go on a missions trip to serve God but money is really tight. Im looking for a missions trip that might give scholarships for grants for such short term trips. Maybe around a month long or so? Thank You...God Bless!!!

How easy for america to belief in negative force than to belief in GOD. We get influence by negative force everyday at our jobs, school, community and by our friends. Many people do not belief that spiritual forces are real but you see it everyday on the news. How many people got killed, raped or abuse is what we see on tv. Many people belief that GOD is not real. That is the first word that come out of people mouth when they see the WAR in IRAQ. You must understand that GOD did not came to the world to give peace but only to individual that are willing to follow up on his foot step. The question is being asked the wrong way. If GOD is real then why are many people are being killed in IRAQ? that is what people belief but that is not the question that must be asked. What are we doing wrong that make GOD turn against us? {SIN}

Six days ago i posted a please help me this is urgent!!! note here. It was to ask for anyone who read it to please pray for my nephew Jason who was near death in the hospital. I am just writing to say thank you and God bless you to those who prayed for him. He is awake and making a slow but much, much improved recovery. Some of you might say that i should thank the doctors and nurses who cared for him and we have and will. The thing is though they ran a multitude of test and could not find what the problem was in the end when he was near death i wrote asking you all to please pray for him and since then he has steadily recovered! The doctors did nothing special for him like give him a mirracle drug or anything like that they just kept him comfortable. They didnt think he would make it. I am here to say that i believe it was our heart felt prayers to God almighty that brought him through this terrible time. This is why i believe in God.
