Religion & Spirituality - 22 February 2007

I asked this before a few months ago, and got no info. I'm hoping for a bit better response this time... I've already read the Wiki article, and done some other research on my own. I'm just curious if anyone else knows who she is.

Now, by asking this question, I am in no way trying to demean Christians. I only wish to understand.

Why does the Bible seem to be so against women? I think it says something about childbirth pains being a punishment because Eve decieved Adam. Why are all women punished for this? And isn't Adam somehow at fault as well?

I also read somewhere that in the Bible, it says that women are to stay silent, and are not to teach men. And yet, I've met many female teachers who are Christian. Are they disobeying God's word? Or are there exeptions?

Again, I am not trying to insult Christians. I am only trying to understand.

Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Genesis 1:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature (nephesh) that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
Numbers 31:19 And do ye abide without the camp seven days: whosoever hath killed any person (nephesh), and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify both yourselves and your captives on the third day, and on the seventh day.
Revelation 16:3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul (psuche) died in the sea.
Ecclesiastes 9

5. For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.

That's what I read

Revelation 20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.

Revelation 21:2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

Notice that "forever" (eternity) can be condidtional:

Exodus 21:6 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever.

"aion" is the greek word often translated as "eternity", but it can be conditional

Mathew 13:39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world (aion); and the reapers are the angels.

Notice God is only immortal:

1 Timothy 6:15-17

15. Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

16. Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.

17. Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy

I keep reading responses to posted answers, referring to the 72 virgins. I've done some research, and I have not found this. Is this just a myth?

Shaytaan shall sit in the face of every good thing you try to do. Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) informed us, "Shaytaan sits in the path (of every good) that the son of Aadam (may try to take)." He sat in front of him when he took the path to Islam and said to him, ‘How could you leave the religion of your fathers and your forefathers?’ But he disobeyed him and became Muslim. Then Shaytaan sat in front of him on his path to Hijrah and said, ‘How could you leave your land and your sky?’ But he disobeyed him and migrated (from Makkah). Then he sat in front of him on his path to Jihaad and said, ‘Why should you do Jihad? It will only exhaust your wealth and body. You’ll be killed, your wife will marry someone else, and your wealth will be divided (to others).’ But he disobeyed him and went for Jihad." Rasul Allah then said, "Whoever does this, it is a duty upon Allah that He shall enter him into Jannah!"

That's what it practically says

1 Samuel 28

13. And the king said unto her, Be not afraid: for what sawest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, I saw gods ascending out of the earth.

14. And he said unto her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man cometh up; and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground, and bowed himself.

Do you wait until they have a solid comprehension of God or is it something you start as early as possible? Or do you not even pray at all with your kids?

I think it's vitally important that you inculcate prayer into a child's life from, literally, Day One. Perhaps they don't quite comprehend the whole God business, but having a prayer life will set the foundation for a strong relationship to God in the later years.

recently i wrote a note about the rapture and how we should live our lives right according to the bible!! i even include this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5C2yBpRrD4I

and someone responded:But this is for the so called "Evangelists" that have been doing their "Missionary" work. You are playing with something very serious and potentially dangerous as you attempt to recruit people for your "group" or "assembly". Not everyone believes the same thing, although the majority of religions have formed from the same standard beginning.
I believe that until you truly understand something, you should not teach it. It is ok to share, but when you start preaching and passing judgment on differences, you stray away from the ultimate goal of humanity. I am becoming annoyed unfortunately with people "picking and choosing" and for that I am sorry. I understand that they are just coming into some aspects of the Word and they are learning one bit at a time. For those people I want to let them know that alot of things you used to do, have NO BIBLICAL PORTION in the scriptures. It is very noticeable and you will see it when you truly open your eyes. I do not want to seem like I am judging or condemning but I do want to stress that NO ONE on Earth has the right to judge or condemn anyone else unless he or she intends to pay for it at the ultimate judgment.

almost, if not, all of which is not in the Bible and is not what the origional Christians practiced? Is this right? Doesnt it kinda slot in with Revelations 22:18-19 " I warn anyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them God will add to him the plagues described in this book. And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and the holy city, which are described in this book."?

Do you think it matters to God that we humans think we are so wonderful that we can add to His religion? Or do you think He just doesnt care at all.

How many of these added things actually come from pagan religions?

(I am not attacking Catholics cos I know these changes where made a long time ago, im just wondering if we should just accept these changes because it was done so many years ago and we r used to it, or if we should think about what God taught and did, and question what the people did)
