Thank you, God! That you are a gracious and merciful God!

I know that the Quran says that if it becomes altered to watch out for it, but it also says that you should consider the Bible as a scared book of the Law of God. So, who exactly made the determination that it is altogether corupt that it is to the point that it is bashed and disregarded altogether. Keep in mind that their is still original scripture that matches exactly with todays bible (the KJV). I will admit that some have tried to make changes in different versions, but I am talking about the original Christian Bible (KJV) and the Jewish Holy Book as well. Those two ARE still today, accurate.

Ok when we say christianity, how many belief systmes does that involve? can someone tell me, I might be going out on a limb here. but just the idea that their has been so many interpretations over one book, wouldnt that suggest that none of us may have interpretated it right? Just wondering. Oh catholics are christians right? I am really not sure because of all of the confusion.

I think it would make me feel very distant from Him, and I don't want that.
So I strive to be the Christian He wants me and needs me to be.

I woke up in a very good mood. Now either my medication is wearing off or some of the people here have gotten to me. So, if that is the case, I am going to make it a point once again to say hello and have an angel touched day regardless of your religious belief or disbelief. Now for a question....does anyone think it is wrong to work in a bar if you are a Christian? Or is there anywhere you think a Christian should absolutely not go? If so, why?

Ok. After reading some answers to various questions, I have a SERIOUS question here. I'm not trying to start a fight, I am just trying to get a straight answer (no pun intended).

Since the Old Testament "laws" are no longer valid, i.e. man with mankind like a woman, why do Christians then use adultery and pre-marital sex as a reason for homosexuality being wrong?

Knowing that our government (well, former government at least) wouldn't allow gay marriage, wouldn't this be unfair?

If our goverment allowed gay marriage (since they shouldn't make laws based on religion anyways, right?), then does that mean homosexuality would then be okay and accepted by Christianity?

If the basis of your argument is pre-marital sex and adultery is a sin, therefore homosexuals are a sin because they can't get married, couldn't it just all be solved by allowing gay marriage?

What would the Christian view point on homosexuality be then?

Jesus died for alot of people in fact everyone. But some people just wont accept such love. I believe god can do so much for someone if they yield.

My special congratulations to you", because most of the people who believe in God are doing blind belief - he is a Christian, because his father is a Christian; he is a Hindu, because his father is a Hindu; the majority of the people in the world are blindly following the religion of their fathers. An atheist, on the other hand, even though he may belong to a religious family, uses his intellect to deny the existence of God; what ever concept or qualities of God he may have learnt in his religion may not seem to be logical to him.

I have asked this question, and suprisingly I get so many conflicting answers from people of the same faith. So If your faith is so just and solid. Why is it that you cant even agree on this simple question? Just wondering

A few moments ago I posted a question asking if Christians still followed the Old Testament because I am under the impression that Jesus brought about a new law which in a sense made the Old Testament invalid.

I am told that Christians must still follow the Ten Commandments however the laws set forth are no longer valid and were only meant for Israel in the first place.

Leviticus is in the Old Testament. Many laws in Leviticus are no longer applicable such as food preparation. It stands to reason that the laws about homosexuality are no longer invalid as well.

It seems that many Christians pick and choose which part of the Old Testament they do and do not wish to follow. I would like to know how you know which parts you are supposed to follow and which parts are inapplicable. How do you know that the food preparation laws are not applicable but homosexuality laws are applicable?

Please explain your reasoning. Thank you.
