Religion & Spirituality - 7 November 2006

I'm looking for a good online group for people who are spiritual -- but not necessarily religious -- a community of people who have a real practice, real community -- honesty, authenticity, love, compassion, and who can support each other through life on this crazy journey we're all on.

Thanks.

I heard part of a christian song yesterday. She sounded alot like Evanescence and so did the music. Some of the words were something like "I cant do this alone help me God" or something similiar. I liked it and so did my daughter. She likes Evanescence so it would be cool to get her to listen to this.

I already asked this, but I acidentally stopped the answering tim way short! SORRY!!!

I am 14 years old, and am a Christian, maybe not the strongest, but I pray, read my Bibile, and try to do what God tells me.
Now I have been going out with this guy for just over 4 months. He is Catholic, but I am pretty sure that he is a born again Christian. We've been through alot together and are really committed to each other and this realationship.
On November 4th our golden anniversary we kissed. We were at his dad's girlfriend's house about 3 hours away. We were gone all weekend. My parents had told me not to kiss him before we left and I remember telling him that, but he doesn't remember me telling him until after we had already kissed. Once we realized what had happened we were both just crying and praying for a long time.
Now we came home and my parents found out (his parents don't care). They are really upset and we're both really afraid that they are going to make us break-up.

Since I've read two posts tonight that said Democrats taking the house would bring about the "end times" quicker. I'm wondering what do you base that on? Because the bible talks a lot more about giving to the poor than it does homosexuality - just like the democrats talk more about the poor than the repubs. So I have to ask...how do you know he's with the GOP?

I know that I have gotten off track in my focus, and I appologise for that.
God wants us to focus on lost souls, and telling them about His very soon return. If we are focussed on anything else we need to repent, and get our focus dialed in on SOULS.
God sent His Son to this earth so that we may be saved, and that we is not just you and I it is this world, the Atheists, Musloms, etc. He wants everyone to come to a saving knowldge of His SON.
I know that few will enter Heaven, but it is our responsability to tell everyone we know about Him.
If you do not tell people about Him their blood will be on your hands.
The Angels cannot testify, even Jesus Himself cannot tell what it is like to once be lost, blind, condemned, and now be found, healed, and set free by the Blood of the Lamb.Only we as humans can testify, and spread the good news.

I beg of you do not be found sleeping when Christ returns, be about the bussiness of spreading the gospel, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If it's the same God, why do we allow various religions to ravish religion with harassment or death threats if individuals don't worship the way that they want?

I mean we've been here 2000 years and not a single document proving any others? Doesn't that make you think that the whole Jesus thing was a hoax? By laws of science, you christians ALL sound delusional.

Are your lamps full and your wicks trimmed?
Do you realise just how close we are to the return of Jesus for His people?

Or could this be one of the daily "miracles" that God uses not only to protect His followers but to prove His existence to non-believers?

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - A 54-year-old Orange Park man credits two small Bibles in his shirt pocket for saving his life when they stopped a bullet.

The man, whose name was withheld because his attackers are still at large, told police that two men who he didn't recognize ambushed him with a rifle as he carried bags of garbage to a trash bin. The two men fled in opposite directions and have not been arrested.

Other than a red mark and a pain in his chest, he was not injured, The Florida Times-Union reported Tuesday.

The man said he was carrying two New Testament Bibles in his shirt pocket to give to friends. Police took the Bibles as evidence.

Where in the bible does it say that God does not approve of the gay lifestyle.

Could someone quote a verse from the bible for me and provide a reference.

Thank you

Intriguing?.....Your thoughts on this quote?

There was a show on the science channel last night about near death experiences that got my interest in this.

There was woman that had her brain frozen so they could operate on it and after the operation she told them about heaven, she had been there the entire time they were operating on her.

They said science can't explain her case as any kind of electrical impulses in the brain because they were monitoring her brain during the operation and there wasn't any.

They told of children around 5 years old that experienced it also and they had some amazing stories about God and dead grandparents.

I can see an adult having the intelligence to make up a story possibly but not a 5 year old child.

I noticed all the adults float up and into a light but children see angels at their death bed, it's like they come to make the trip easier for a child.

Adults and children alike didn't want to come back.

What are your thoughts about this?

People say things about them, and when you ask them(JW's) themselves, they prove them(Non JW's) false and back themselves up with the bible....any bible!

They seem to be persecuted just like Jesus was. He was called a False prophet also. Just something that makes me go hmmmmm...

So my Q is.

Why do people lie about them, or say half truths or call them a cult and such?

The power of faith,is the power of belief.If, it is not a reality,then how does one explain the results experienced by a patient, when a doctor"convinces" them, that a sugarpill is a miracle drug?The Placebo Effect.
