How does it apply to your life?
How has it changed your life?
What does it mean to you?

Mine is: "Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the LORD does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart"

I love this one. It reminds me to not be judgemental. Only God sees what is in one's heart.

Since a lot of the R&S regulars come on at this time, I'd like to ask you all a favor...

The guidelines state that we are to answer questions in a way that is respectful of others...so, to those of you who dislike Christianity, why not be respectful to us as well????

I constantly hear, "well, the Christians do it to us." No, SOME Christians do it to you. But does that mean that somehow it's okay to bash Christianity, but demand respectability for other beliefs?

We don't mind respectful questions and actually enjoy those questions...but the bashing gets a little, actually wayyyyy overdone?

Would you be willing to reconsider not bashing us and thinking about the wording on the questions aimed at challenging Christianity?

I lived in Romania, Germany and France and have met people from all over the globe, but Dutch people are just not my cup of tea; I especially refer to the south of Holland - Limburg area where I met the most rude people in my life: impollite, arrogant and incredibly selfish! I understand one shouldn't categorize but I seriously do see a huge difference in the way people treat eachother just over the border in germany or Belgium.

I asked a question earlier about how if God exists, then he is part of existence, otherwise known as the cosmos (as Carl Sagan discribed, "allthat ever was, is and will be", and should therefore be able to be somehow discribed through physics.

I got all these answers back saying that God is seperate from the universe.

The cosmos isn't bound to the universe. For all we know, our universe maybe one of many as our galaxy is one of many. String theory would suggest there is much beyond our basic comprehension at this time, as does the theory of vacoum fluctuations.

If it exists, ever has done, or ever will, it is part of the cosmos.

If God exists, he is therefore a part of this.

Why do christians feel it's so important to deny something so obvious and straight forward?

Sometimes it's so much fun to be a bit dyslexic! Last night I was sure someone asked why Jehovah's Witnesses don't let their children go to birthday panties...

Any other favourite R&S mis-readings/typos?

I fill the need to live a more disciple-like life, and so I would say three words of this godly living, which I so desire:
Ascetic: I will stay away from worldy pleasures and avoid all pleasures which will put love of something other then The Lord God before the Lord God, as I shall not have an god or idol before God (money and things in the world will not be paid any attension too). I will only be happy, joyful and seek great pleasure in the Lord God, Yeshua and the Word of God.
Celibate: I will stay away and flee from worldly women,I will send away temptations of the flesh and throw worldy women into the bin (by this I really mean that I will combat the natural urges and needs of the flesh).
Moderate: I will be fair in life, spend as little as possible on worldy things and devote most of my money to spiritual things, living a modest life, purity will be formost.

I think that God is all understanding, but can you give your personal opinion please?

Seeker of God Most High.

I had asked a previous question concering OTC meds for nasal congestion.

Now the nasal congestion has been draining and I have a sore throat.

Do you know of any OTC or natural remedies that work for a sore throat?

Have you tried this before?
