And if we are recognizing ourselves as being a part of IS or Are, then are we not parts of God even right now?

Are there any good samaritans left in the world?
i'm a young woman trying to make it in this world. I live a simple life yet have realized the cost of living a basic American life is quite spendy. I am a child of God, a teacher, a daughter, a sister, a friend and want to do all that I can to touch the world; however, i am so oppressed because of financial burdens that it is at times very difficult to do what I have been called to do.

In a way, my reason for posting this question is a test for other people in the world. I'm asking for help. I am an honest person who tries to live a life of integrity every day: one who tries to mirror the lifestyle of Philippians 2 in the Bible.

So the question is who can help me?

Thank you so much,
Blessings to you.

(can you tell me more about this from a scientific point of view if possible. )

I can understand the concept of chemistry between people who are attracted to each other (sexually) but what about people of the same sex (heterosexuals) who take an instant liking to each other - whether it be looks, spirituality, whatever. what's behind it?

It's slightly baffling that they vehemently oppose evolution,and stem cell research.
Is it actually to project a religion to counter communism initially and the rise of Islam or to bind the citizens under one banner and for social engineering

My russian/jewish boyfriend of 5 yrs recently broke up with me saying "I know I love you, I would propose to you today! I just am confused. My parents will never accept it, I have a history..." I obviously know him (5 years) and I know his parents would be angry, But I know they would get over it. He also is not very religious at all. He has been in a temple a total of like 3 times. He eats pork.. ON PASSOVER... But he says "its more about history and tradition and I feel like im responsible for keeping the jewish lineage"... And then on other hand says "im just not sure. Im confused" So hes bsically not saying he is completely set in his idea that we cant be together.... Anyways.. How can I make it work? I could convert.. But that isnt even the issue, its more history! How do i make it work?

Many will say proof is in reading the bible. I've read Winnie the Pooh but that doesn't prove there is a 100 Acres Woods. Other's will tell me the mear fact that I am here on earth or that I have children is proof that God exist and yet we know how life is procreated. Prayer and god were not present at conception or delivery. If in the beginning there was Adam and Eve, where are the dinasuars (which we can prove existed).
We know what causes disease and yet we often say that God wanted that person to "come home". Why does it have to be so painful? How can we say that a child was sexually abused and murdered 'cause God needed them in heavin?
Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?
We base our belief on what was written and re-written over the centuries and indoctrinate our children, like skinheads teach their children predjudice and other countries teach their children to hate Americans.

- Read story of Joseph in the Old Testament before commenting.
- Scourge of aids, malnutrition, genocide, wars, etc.. currently in Africa.
- The question is not about whether blacks in America are "special" but rather are they here through divine protection.

if I often think about having sex with my engaged one... we never do it-- we're saving it for marriage. It doesn't feel wrong when I think about it, but I just wondered if it was adulterous. Please be practical if you are going to use theology. Thanks.

The books say there are rules, but then people who say they obey these rules still offend us. Are there more rules that aren't written? And if an change that we are not prepared for a shock that kills us over time, then isn't all movement and thought sin? And isn't IS or the source of all that is within us producing all of this difference all the time and therefore isn't that a source of Sin? If IS is the source of all sin, then isn't IS the creator and apparently creation at the same time?

I mean, like the gospels, how do we know that there were no mistakes or alterations made from the original gospels? And please don't say anything about divine inspiration or divine guidance, cause that's a pretty weak argument to an atheist, or someone of another religion. There were no printing presses in those days, so how could we be sure that the writings were not changed, maybe by accident, human error, etc? Cause the Jehovah's Witness' bible is quite different from mainstream bibles, so how can we be sure that there was no deviation?

Then the Master Jesus, after briefing them, was taken up to heaven, and he sat down beside God in the place of honor.
This is in Mark 16, the last verses.
Can someone explain this if Jesus(pbuh) is God?

I am not understanding , what it mean to be an atheist? My question is Why should one person or one group get to descide the laws or rules ? For an example the word GOD offends people so they need to take GOD and every thing to do with religion out so some one else can talk and avertise and show off their beliefs. What i am trying to say why cant i talk about GOD to my friends where ever i want and the athiest talk about their beliefs where ever they want instead of just one religion get to descide. I mean if it offends you go some where else . This is getting out of hand now in california a college has bandrd the pledge allengence because of the two word "under God." in it .
