Hebrews 10:24-25 --"And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching."

.,,the book speaks of Jewish people, and of their disobedience to God, and that Ezekiel was one of God's prophets who He sent to Babylon, to instruct them. But they did not listen, and so Jerusalem was destroyed.
And there is much more of course.,
But this is the first time I have learned so much about these people. Jewish people. They apparently had much to learn, as did other groups of people.
But, there is also the division of land for the "twelve tribes of Israel" - then it goes on to describe the borders....and it remains so many words, but little understanding... (Verses 45, 47, 48). Why is this such difficult reading?


And does this book describe what Jewish people call
"The Promised Land?"; it appears to. If it doesn't, where do I find references to the so-called "Promised Land"?

ok, so from christian answers from recent questions, i've discovered that they would rather die and let their children die, than convert to another religion.
now, what if you were put into the postition (through terrorism or whatever) that you had to either kill yourself, or your only child and the other one survives. suicide is a sin for which you go to hell, as is murder, but knowing you can repent your sin and still get into heaven after murdering your child, which would you do?
please don't give the answer "it's not that simple" because it is that simple if you're under the control of some crazy terrorist as my question implies.
i don't mean to be morbid, i am just really trying to understand some of your values. thanks

Why is that (some) christians ask a questions specifically towards atheists asking them why...whatever they want to know..and then pick some christian slamming atheists as the best answer. I mean why bother asking atheists if you don't even really care what their answer is?

Someone asked atheists why we believe the universe popped into existance from nothing........alot of atheists answered actually explaining their beliefs and the best answer went to a christian saying that atheists were heathens, wrong, unfaithful..yada yada yada. If you really don't care to know what we believe, and why...why bother asking us?

it would be your religion that starts a american civil war and it is your religion that would want a theorcacy where they can kill off non christians all over the place and get away with it.

to those christians who think the civil war wasnt caused by christians you need to study american history better

i m nt being sarcastic, i mean. for people u say are very very religious are mostly engrossed in their rites and rituals (going to their temple once a week, celebrating festivals, murmuring scriptures, cladding ); and the main motive of a religion that is to love god and get salvation, is all lost.
people dont even remember gods even in these occassion, they are more concentrated on meeting people, dressing, eating.

People seriously are so pre occupied with all such things that the deep secrets of truth and knowledge remains unrealized

Many in the religious herd aren't aware that we atheists have spiritual experiences just like they do. Even before my conversion from a Christian I always had a spiritual affinity towards the grandeur of nature, astronomy, and evolution (my church accepted evolution- it's not the sole reason for my conversion) but my feelings were clouded by father-figure attachments to the mythical Jesus (what can you expect from a child). In any case, when I gaze at the night sky or stand by the ocean, I feel a spiritual unity with the universe. I simply found that I don't need to turn the grand cosmos into a silly racist butcher (yahweh) in order for it to have value. The Universe is a thing-in-itself, self-created, and it is no less powerful for lack of consciousness. In fact, WE are the consciousness of the Universe. I call this "spiritual Atheism" - the meaning and awe that comes from our sense of place in nature. If you are an Atheist or Agnostic, would you share your spiritual feelings?

There is a story in Islamic history books about one of prophet Muhammed's companions who wanted to marry a girl but he could not afford her dowry (in Islam men have to pay dowry for the bride). The companion went to prophet Muhammed and asked him for some money. Prophet Muhammed told the companion he had no money to give him BUT he can send him in a war mission so that he could make some money from loots. The man went to the mission and had many loots and also enslaved a beautiful woman, so that he was able to marry and also had concubine in one shot.

Does this mean that looting was the only income for some of prophet Muhammed's companions?

Is it okay for a Minister to charge a fee to a couple he is marrying and keep all the money for himself personally, even though he might use resources of the church, such as the Secretary, the church's utilities, not to mention the building and sanctuary itself in providing this service? What do other churches and ministers do with this issue?

My ex inlaws are die-hard christians... well, they like to think they are. I, myself, am a 20 year practicing witch. Well, it seems my ex inlaws want to force my son into Boy Scouts. His mother, my ex wife, is also Wiccan. She and I both agree he will go into what is called Spiral Scouts. Much the same as Boy Scouts, but without all the christian overtones. Even after being told we absolutely do NOT want him in Boy Scouts, they are insisting on taking him to a meeting, because they don't believe it's a christian organization.
