Hebrew 4:12 For the word of God [is] quick, and powerful, and
sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing
asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and
[is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

I can understand now why no writer would take credit for this part of the New testament. Why would the Christian Church hierarchy keep this and throw away so many other writings.

I've never understood that. Even when I was a Christian.

Please, list some examples of how you think this parable/metaphor can be made manifest.

Yeshua talking, says this in a small one verse lesson called Don't Throw Pearls to Pigs:

"Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces."

Baruch,
David.

Are all Muslim's nuts. Why in America should I have to accept there non-sense when they do not accept other faith's. I am a Christian and they call me an infindel as well as Jews and call for all of us to die. Why if some claims to be peaceful do Muslim's call for the death of others. I believe the Muslim religon is nothing but bigots and zelots.

And yes, I'm asking this of people in the R&S section in order to be enlightened to any reasons for objection which are separate from their religious perspective.

And yes, this applies only to those who actually oppose same sex marriage. Those of you who support it or have no opinion on the matter can feel free to respond, of course, but this question isn't actually directed at you.

Suicide bombing does not get you heaven and in no place in the Quran is it allowed. It's forbidden. Men do not get virgins, they get hellfire for killing innocent people. There is absolutely no reason or need to be killing yourself. That's a permanent solution to a temporary problem. If the men followed Islam, those countries would not be in the state they are. But as the Quran says, God only changes the state of a people who change themselves.

This is to show how sick the trinity teaching is !!!
Mat 1:18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. (King James)
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. (New King James)


18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. (American Standard Version)

18 The birth of Jesus Christ was like this: Mary His mother had been promised in marriage to Joseph. Before they were married, it was learned that she was to have a baby by the Holy Spirit. (New Life Version)

1. (Heb 1:6) And again, when HE [GOD] bringeth in the firstbegotten [JESUS] into the world, he saith, = = And let all the angels of God worship HIM [JESUS].

2. (Matthew 4:9-10) And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, = = if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
(Mat 4:10) Then saith Jesus unto him, = = Get thee hence, Satan: = = for it is written, = = Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, = = and him only shalt thou serve.

GOD, Commanded the Entire Angelic Realm TO WORSHIP JESUS!

ONLY GOD IS WORTHY OF WORSHIP!

IS JESUS GOD?

Islam is the only religion that are full of hate, full of violent, full of discrimination against other beleiver including Christians/Jews that are Beleive in God of Abraham which muhammad call Allah.

Just simple face question.
Do you think God of Abraham/Allah will allow full of hate with Christians/Jews. For sure Satan prophet will agree but not with God of Abraham/Allah.

Do you think God of Abraham/Allah will allow man to have 4 wife by many excuse so all the pervert, sex maniac, rapist, child molester can become good man. For sure Satan prophet will agree but not with God of Abraham/Allah.

Do you think God of Abraham/Allah will allow violent, killing many innocent people just using His name and got rewarded. For sure Satan prophet will agree but not with God of Abraham/Allah

I didn't grow up in a church. I would like to join one, but I do not know to choose. My family is protestant, but I have been considering a lot of options, including Catholicism. If you are not a member of the church you were raised in, how did you choose which denomination to join?

Prayer

2007-04-12 13:23:50 · 7 answers · asked by Anonymous

How did the Father of Jesus feel as Jesus was betrayed and then arrested by a mob in the night? As Jesus was deserted by his friends and subjected to an illegal trial? As he was ridiculed, spat upon, and struck with fists? As he was scourged, his back torn to ribbons? As he was nailed, hands and feet, to a wooden pole and left to hang there while people reviled him? How did the Father feel as his beloved Son cried out to him in the throes of agony? How did Jehovah feel as Jesus breathed his last, and for the first time since the dawn of all creation, His dear Son was not in existence?—Matthew 26:14-16, 46, 47, 56, 59, 67; 27:38-44, 46; John 19:1.

In Arab culture and under Islamic law, if your father is a Muslim, so are you. And once a Muslim, always a Muslim. You cannot go back. In Islamic eyes, Obama is certainly a Muslim. He may think he's a Christian, but they do not.


"During the five years that we would live with my stepfather in Indonesia, I was sent first to a neighborhood Catholic school and then to a predominantly Muslim school...puzzling out the meaning of the muezzin's call to evening prayer"

Obama is unapologetic in saying he has a "personal relationship with Jesus Christ."
"It wasn't an epiphany, - It was much more of a gradual process for me. I know there are some people who fall out. Which is wonderful. God bless them ... I think it was just a moment to certify or publicly affirm a growing faith in me."

I think everyone might find this very interesting. I'm trying to clear up the ideas that false propaganda has spread. I'm trying to show you that we really are peaceful and just want to raise our families just as anyone else. And no, we don't breed like rabbits. I have two children and don't plan to have anymore. My sister in law has three and she won't have anymore either. I know many women who have 4 or less and are perfectly happy with not having anymore.

Nobody can force a muslim woman to cover her head. She can run around naked and they can't do a thing but try talking some sense into her.

This occasionally happens.

Because many who support legalized abortion claim that they believe that it's no different than any other operation, I'm not worried about offending them.

The following is an excerpt from the experience of a former abortionist:

"I remember getting called down to my chairman's office because a young lady that I had done an abortion on showed up, and the abortion had been incomplete. I had not done my job right, and she passed an arm or a leg and she freaked out because she didn't realize what had happened." -Former Abortionist Dr. Anthony Levatino
