Not saying that everyone in this world is against it, but lately i've found other Christians not acting like Christians and it's really hard to stay focused on our goal as a whole if our whole team doesn't work together. Also not saying that everyone has to convert over or anything like that, but if you are a Christian then act like one and help out the rest of us....help hold us accountable for our actions so that we'll know if we're maintaining our Christian walk. It seems as though i'm answering my own question, but all i really want is someone to tell me how we can fix this...or the better question, can we.

i mean seriously its good that he cares and that the people who post it cares. i care but if youre not out there working on it, then sitting at home or at a church and talking to the air isnt that important. im not athiest, i just think that if there is a god then he doesnt give a damn about what goes on down here

Jesus is God. Yet there are some Christians who deny he is God. Yet the Bible clearly makes it clear that he is God.

Consider the following verses.

Rev. 4:9-11; 5:8,12-14; 7:11-12
Matt. 2:2,11
Matt. 8:2
Matt. 14:33
Matt. 28:9
Matt. 3:16-17; Mark 1:10-11; John 1:32
Matt. 8:26; Mark 4:39; Luke 8:24
Matt. 9:4; 12:25; Luke 6:8; 11:17
Matt. 9:25; Mark 5:24; John 11:44
John 9:38
John 20:28

How do you justify these Bible passages to deny Jesus divinity? Clearly you miss read Scripture because the Bible makes it pretty Clear that Jesus is God. The Word made flesh and dwelt amongst us.

What is then, the purpose of physical, material life on Earth so full of ups and downs, and more suffering than joy? Upon physical death, if our true selves are truly released into a realm of infinity and light, what was the purpose of life here on this plane of existence?

Call it Christmas Overload, but I just found myself reasoning this way.
When David Koresh stockpiled weapons in his house and told people God had told him to prepare for war, federal agents drove in the tanks and killed him.

When George Bush went into the situation room with the Joint Chiefs and told them God had told him to invade Iraq...they did it...

Does that mean the White House should now be officially regarded as the headquarters of a dangerous religious cult?

Jesus Christ is not His name. Jesus was the name given to the Lord at birth. Christ is a title like doctor or Lord.

Therefore He is Christ(Annointed one-Chosen One-Messiah) Jesus(Inherent Name Yeshuah-Son of Jehovah-Chosen by GOD the Father)

Hence Christ Jesus is proper grammar. Not Jesus Christ but Jesus the Christ. His Title as Name above all Names.

Atheists say that there is no such thing as a God !
But can they answer these doubts or questions ? For everything there is a starting point ! And therefore this existence had a starting point ! But what was before that point ? If you say nothing, Can something be created from nothing ?
If you say yes, you are out of your minds !

What was the force that brought up existence from nothing ?From where did that force come ? Whether you believe in the Big Bang or any other theory, what brought that force to existence ?

For any cause there should be other another causes, but these causes should end at a point, infinite number of causes is not valid and nothing in existence has infinite causes, it is like adding infinite number of zeros together and yet it totals zero ! And zero is not a valid answer because zero = nothing, and nothing has infinite number of causes ! But when adding one (the end point stopping infinite causes)we get answer!

So are there valid answers to my doubts

The Gift

A king was born.

Wise men brought him gifts of incense, myrrh, and gold. People flocked to see him for this was the one written about. This was the one whos glory was seen in the heavens, which the angels proclaimed.

The gifts would see him through his time from birth till his work began, which was set aside from the beginning by his Father. These gifts fit for a King.

Rarely did people bring him gifts after that, especially those a King would approve of. For would a king accept just any gifts? People treated him with contempt by offering unto him lambs which had defects, gold stolen from his Father, incense dedicated to gods. Not many times was he ever pleased with these gifts he received for most were done in vain.

The gifts he received at birth for they were ordained by his Father since before the beginning of time. The people gave him gifts that would make any other king furious yet this king's grace was beyond the other kings abilities.

When his personal kingship had neared its end a woman who new this grace opened an alabaster jar and poured it on him for she knew his buriel would soon take place. As she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them. His disciples were more like court jesters for they had not yet received wisdom from on high. They mocked her aand even as so much as to say "Some of those present were saying indignantly to one another, "Why this waste of perfume? It could have been sold for more than a year's wages and the money given to the poor." And they rebuked her harshly.

The King said "She has done a beautiful thing to me. What she has done will also be told, in memory of her." For the burial preparations of this King this was an acceptable gift just like the incense, myrrh, and gold the Wise men had done 33years ago. This woman, who had been an adulterous woman, did what was wise for this King. Hers was an acceptable gift. She knew his grace and loved him deeply for it.

Now before this King died he gave some distinct orders that were to be carried out by all who claimed to acknowledge him as King even in his death.

The King, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me." In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me."

Feasts, festivals and holidays all look good to man but with "understanding," obedience to this King was what he wanted from those who would desire to remember him in a worthy manner or give a gift worthy of this King. Celebrating his birth, death and ressurection in this manner.

The other gifts were good intentions but the latter gift was what he acknowledged. No other gift would fulfill the requirements he had laid out.

New Scientific Evidence for the Existence of God

A Seminal Presentation by Astrophysicist Dr. Hugh Ross, given in South Barrington, Illinois, April 16, 1994



Editor's note: This lecture was selected not in spite of being more than 10 years old, but because it is more than 10 years old. Virtually every statement and inference given in this speech has been reinforced and further validated during the last decade by measurements from the COBE Satellite, the Hubble Telescope, and advances in physics and astronomy.

The hallmark of a truly reliable scientific theory is that it is thoroughly testable, scientifically falsifiable, and makes accurate predictions. Dr. Ross's origins model has stood the test of time for nearly two decades, literally receiving further validation on a monthly basis as physics and astronomy journals publish new papers. http://www.cosmicfingerprints.com/audio/newevidence.htm
