Or have read the book themselves. The book is called The Prophetic Imagination by Walter Brueggemann. I'm having a hard time understanding what I'm reading and I would greatly appreciate it.

Isn't the threat of hell just a bigger version of this childrens tale, with Santa replaced by God? Exactly when do we grow up?

Paul said it. Peter said it. But, when and where in the Bible did Jesus say that he was going to die for your sins, and that you would not be judged by your conduct, and that you would win a lottery ticket to Heaven?

Jesus said no matter what you scream about him being Lord, you are not going to heaven, unless you forgive others. And, unless you are reborn into a harmony-loving person. If you hold a grudge, you are not a harmony-loving person, no matter how loud you scream. Jesus' words --not mine.

Do you worship Paul, or do you follow the teachings of Jesus?

Since there is God, and he can hear us wherever and whenever, then why do we need to go through Jesus?
If he died on the cross for us, does that means that God is powerless that his son has to suffer for him to forgive us? moreover, what about the people that came before Jesus? cant we just be like them and pray to God directly?

For those that think Jesus is God in flesh:
Who controled the universe when he was down here?
Who was the father he was praying to on the cross?

I get the Islamic Crescent moon, the Christian cross, the Yin Yang, and the Star of David but not 100% positive about the rest of it and I was curious as to its meaning.

okay, the "quote" above isnt exact, because i dont happen to have a bible sitting right here next to me =) but i think anyone with any experience reading the bible knows what i'm referring to, and many other more specific verses stating, in essence: "if you dont believe in me/ accept me/ worship me/ follow me, etc. you're going to hell." now, the question here is, what happens to however many thousands, or perhaps millions of people have never heard of God ? or rather, havent had the opportunity to research, read the bible, and come to know him, due to circumstances of location (tribes of indigenous peoples in many remote locations with no outside contact), circumstance (at a young age, you suffer death before learning anything about god) intentional "suppression" (your government suppresses all spread and knowledge of christianity, for whatever reason) or a number of other circumstances, Do these people given a "free pass" to heaven? or spend eternity in hell hating God for his

to justify the terrible things that happen in the world. I have heard it all. how can one fix their mouths to say god doesn't heal, protect or provide for everyone because we ALL simply don't deserve to be treated well. come on people, if you have to make up ridiculous excuses for god, why don't you just make up ridiculous excuses to protect everything and everyone else. why do you delete questions on here that are obviously pre-written by god? why complain about anything in your life?

Why,when a quote is given from the koran revealing the true mohamad , that moslems say it is wrong without giving the correct quote or even worse don't respond... I thought they were supposed to fight liars and disbeleivers... or maybe, by their silence, they are really telling us all that it is all horribly true!


Qur'an:9:123 "Fight the unbelievers around you, and let them find harshness in you."
