I've always pondered over this and maybe someone can help me understand. If Jesus was destined to die on the cross for our salvation, amd judas was the one to turn him over, how Can Judas be sent to hell for doing what he was ment to do. So what if Judas didnt turn him over, would someone else have turned Jesus over? Or would Jesus have not been crucified if he didnt do it which would be a greater burden on them both i would think? There was an old gosspel found a while back called the gospel of jhudas which makes much more sence to me between the relationship of the two where a friend was asked to turn a friend over. What do you think?

again i see the sleep paralysis question is still getting the " it was demons " answers
even when i give a description and a link to sleep paralysis
this link even tells you about incubus through hynagogic imagery

why do people wish to ignore something that is simply a medical condition , for the belief of something more supernatural and frightening ?

I've heard from funeral parlor employees and people who dig plots for caskets that cremation is very bad in some way. Is it because of what cremating a body does to the environment? Is it a religious thing? I plan to be buried, myself. But I'm wondering what is so "secretly" horrible about cremation.

You can't prove anything. Either you believe or don't believe. That is why Faith is so important. Then comes Hope.

And Jesus answered and said to them, "Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, `Be taken up and cast into the sea,' it will happen. "And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive." (Matthew 21:21-22 NAS)

I know christians who have had faith and truly believe have their prayers ignored. One example, a guy had a terminal brain tumor, Dr's gave him 6 months to live and his wife was 3 months pregnant with their first child. The Dr's were trying to keep him alive so he could see his child. He had about 100 christians praying, asking god to let him see the child, they had faith and truly believed god would answer them.

He died 3 days before his child was born.

I can't understand how people can actually believe in biblical tall tales. A man walking on water, A man putting all the land dwelling animals on the earth in a boat, an invisible man calling himself god and talking to people, the tales are endless. Are the majority of people faking Christianity? I don't see any of these tall tales any different then Jack and the bean stock, Superman, Hulk, Batman, and any other made up comic book characters. Are Most Christians really atheists pretending to believe because they believe in a certain religious philosophy and they are covering by lying to the public, or are they that brainwashed that they think comic book like figures are actually real? We look back at how dumb people were 500, 1000, and 2000 years ago because they were primitive to us scientifically, democratically, morally, and other. How can people these days believe anything written down by a bunch of comic book maker cults of 2000 years ago?

In Genesis 3:16, God says to Eve:

"I will greatly increase your pains in childbearing;
with pain you will give birth to children.
Your desire will be for your husband,
and he will rule over you."

Exactly What did God mean by this?

You get to ask God one question and you would get a clear and understanding response...what question would you ask?

You always want something more, whether it be a better husband/wife, sex, cars, good food, a tv show, a movie, and tons of other stuff. We always have a desire for something more, animals are not built this way, why are we?

Periodically, I'll have these dreams where I find myself being held down or held in place by a not so Holy presence. This presence or thing does things to me. For example, it'll breathe on me, strike me, sit on me, licks me, sometimes I can feel it in my stomach? Like it's trying to tear me apart or something. It actually hurts during the dream but when I awake, I'm not in pain, I'm scared! One on occasion, I remember being picked up in mid air, spinning around and something was shaking me, like attempting to shake me apart. Sometimes this thing pretends to be a female and touchs me (I won't go in to details) I fight it off eventually by calling out to Jesus to help me. One night I had fallen asleep, and this thing was touching my hand, telling me not to worry. Like it was pretending to be an angel. I said I don't know who you are, but you're not Jesus. When I said that, it turned into something very demonic, growled in my face and then I woke up. Comments?

That may not be the title of the hymn neither do I think that is the correct spelling, but you get the general gist of what song I am on about.

We measure things that have value, money, age, hieght, weight, number of eggs in the carton, number of days, hours months,

Jesus measured his followers, or rather, the Bible does, it measures them as 12. Judas was of the twelve, etc.

Is that important?

I've read more than once that noone can know for sure, so there are no athiests. Wouldn't that same logic apply to every belief? Athiests hold to it as their best guess. Christians hold to it as gospel.

It would seem, they would rejoice in the opportunity to prove their beliefs are correct. It would give them the opportunity to so let their light shine before the world. (Mat 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.) But yet, they run and hide behind the scripture of “2Co 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers” Paul was a man, not Jesus Christ and subject to the same fallacies as you or I.
