Tolerance basically means that "you put up with something" no matter how much you disagree with it.
Maybe if we all stopped being so "Tolerant" of everything because it's Politically Correct to do this, we could make some positive changes in our society?

How rational is it for God to sacrifice 'his own innocent son' and he cannot even punish the evil doers who sin all over the earth?

The bible requires a blood sacrifice:
And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. (Hebrews 9:22)


What does Jesus (peace be upon him) say about this matter:

Jesus was teaching his disciples in the outer court of the Temple and one of them said unto him: Master, it is said by the priests that without shedding of blood there is no remission. Can then the blood offering of the law take away sin? And Jesus answered: No blood offering, of beast or bird, or man, can take away sin, for how can the conscience be purged from sin by the shedding of innocent blood? Nay, it will increase the condemnation. (Gospel of the Nazorenes, Lection 33, verses 1-2)

I find it impossible for a man to offer himself for sacrifice for 'the sins of mankind' when he condemns sacrifice himself.

Doesn't matter your beleif, I appreciate everyone's input, but since relevant, I'd love to hear from at least one Christian.

1.) What does gift giving have to do with the presumed birth day of the infant Jesus? Then, if a gift must be given, would not gold, spices, and fragrant oils be more appropriate? These were offered to the infant Jesus, per bible history.

2.) What is the significance of a decorated tree when one is celebrating the assumed birth day of the infant Jesus?

3.) How can one celebrate the life of Jesus Christ, who preached humility and giving to others less fortunate, with the blatant capitalism festival that Christmas has evolved into over the ages? How do Christmas sales at Best Buy and Wally World reflect upon an infant born in Bethlehem who is the saviour of Christianity, and the honoree of the "Christmas" celebration?

It seems akin to clebrating Ghandi's life with drive by shootings and the detonation of nukes. Just a musing, nothing more.

The bible claims that God is omnipotent. Certainly, Satan has no match against God. Yet he fights on. Even the bible predicts his end, he seems to ignore this. I just cannot see the logic. On the other hand, why God will take such a trouble to destroy Satan as described in Revelation. I feel God and Satan might have a tacit understanding between them. Have anyone seen a book which says that Satan is the prodigal son? That's why the status quo continues until the end times. Or, God is giving to Satan to repent. But can Satan make repent, since he is in the losing ends and should he go on? But it would be a funny scenario, at the end times, Satan turns out to be an angel but the antichrist and the false prophet are left to be tormented in hell because of their unrepentance or lack of opportunity to doing so.

on here. I have noticed that athiests post obscene or sarcastic answers or questions relating to the non-existence of God and make it their duty to insult Christians as worshiping a "super-hero like batman" when they praise God. Not all athiests but the ones who dwell in the religion category causing havoc. Where does this acute hatred come from? Why cant all religions and faiths work together to share knowledge and just overall be happy? Not just Athiests, but why do people insult others for not having the same belief as them?

I have just begun a Hebraic class which teaches studying the Word of God from the Hebraic culture, history, and context. I am finding out many things I've been taught as a Christian have been misinterpreted because I studied with a Western Thinking. I am looking for resources to help with these studies. I have a Jewish Study Bible and use the Complete Jewish Bible, but I would like some online sources also. I am really looking for a Bible or reference book that references the NT scriptures back to the Torah/Tenakh scriptures.

All through the Bible the punishment for sin is death, not eternal life in torment. a passage in Matthew and Revelation that sound like hell is eternal torment, but a study of them shows them to mean something else. Besides I don't think we should base an entire doctrine of hell on a couple obscure verses when so many more say something else. We are told the punishment was death from the beginning. God told Adam that eating of that tree would bring death. All these are in the Bible: The wages of sin is death. Don't fear him who can kill the body only, but he who can kill the body AND SOUL in hell. The SOUL that sinneth, IT SHALL DIE. This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and cursings.....choose life (Deut. 30)
The parable of the rich man and Laz. is not a pic of hell or an actual occurrance. Abraham could not have spoken to the rich man. It's a demo of the law and grace. Could hell be where body and soul die???

I have read that the old testament is intact, what about the new one/? No offense- I've looked it up, but I find the best bet is to ask actual christians questions. They seem to know more about their own faith. thanks
