Religion & Spirituality - 21 November 2006

My gf & I are going to tie the knot, and we are now in the planning stage.

She's a Christian, I'm not.

She's keen to hold a church wedding to receive blessings (I'm totally ok with it).

Anyone knows which church allows such a wedding in the church's premises?

ie does not need the couple to both be Christians (much less both baptised!)

Think of the attribute of jealousy in humans. Isn't it a sure sign of immaturity, lack of understanding, and lack of wisdom? Basically, isn't it a sign of a child rather than an adult?

So why would we think that the God of the Bible would be a Jealous God? Shouldn't me be light-years beyond that?

...and all evil is eliminated (and so forth), will people still have the free will to disobey God if they choose?

Criticize evolution for being "non-testable, and non-repeatable" (which it is), when the exact same claim could be made against the Genesis 1 or 2 account of creation?

why not just ask Him yourself? I mean when you go to bed tonight just say God I can't believe in something I dont see,will you show yourself to me in a dream or something so I can see you..Do it with your heart though,if you are really wanting to see Him..I know without a doubt He will show you,He is giving you the chance.If you want to take it..

I know this sounds like a demeaning question or an attack on theology, but I am serious. I'm Agnostic, I'd prefer to believe in God but I know I'm leaning toward Atheism...I do not "feel God in my heart," I have never seen a miracle...I think that the universe might have always existed with no beginning or ending....The complexity of life seems like it could be by chance, given the eons of time it had to come together in the right way....

True Religion . . .
PRACTICES LOVE: True worshippers are “no part of the world,” are not divided by race or culture, and display ‘love among themselves.’ (John 13:35; 17:16; Acts 10:34, 35) Rather than killing one another, they are willing to die for one another.—1 John 3:16.

TRUSTS GOD’S WORD: Instead of teaching “tradition” and “commands of men as doctrines,” true religion bases its doctrine on God’s Word, the Bible. (Matthew 15:6-9) Why? Because “all Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight.”—2 Timothy 3:16.

STRENGTHENS FAMILIES AND UPHOLDS HIGH MORAL STANDARDS: True religion trains husbands to ‘love their wives as their own bodies,’ helps wives to develop ‘deep respect for their husbands,’ and teaches children to ‘be obedient to their parents.’ (Ephesians 5:28, 33; 6:1) In addition, those entrusted with positions of authority must have exemplary morals.—1 Timothy 3:1-10.

Does any religion meet these standards? The book Holocaust Politics, published in 2001, says: “If more people practiced versions of what the Jehovah’s Witnesses preach and practice, the Holocaust could have been prevented and genocide would scourge the world no more.”

Indeed, in 235 lands, Jehovah’s Witnesses do not just preach the Bible’s moral standards—they live by them. We urge you to ask Jehovah’s Witnesses to help you learn what God requires of you so that you can worship him acceptably. Now is the time to act. Do not delay. The end of false religion is near!—Zephaniah 2:2, 3.

Wow! A Christian asking a question. What is going on.Usually we get questions from non-Christians. Why are they concerned about us.Sorry but I am not concerned about them as far as what they think. I did NOT say I do not care about other people.
