Religion & Spirituality - 6 May 2007

I am a Christian but all Christians do NOT believe in the Trinity. I believe in Oneness (God is One not Three in One). Many dont know that 1 John 5: 7-8 was added to the bible and was not found in hundreds of Greek manuscripts but only 8 later manuscripts and in the first 4 it was only a note. I believe that God the Father is the only God according to (1 Cor 8:6 etc.) and God (Father) manifested himself in flesh which is Jesus (1 Tim 3: 16) and in Jesus dwells the Fulness of the Godhead bodily (Colo 2: 9). Jesus is God by the Father dwelling in his body, he is not a seperate person. People don't understand John 1: 1 (logos). The word is not seperate from the Father. According to Ireneaus "An disciple of John the apostle" The Father was the only Fulness, he also wrote that if their was another besides the Father, then the Father would not be the Fulness at all nor would he be God. Jesus is God becasue the deity in him is the One true God, The Father, their is no other God or persons.

so, originally it was all "no evolution! God is the only way we came here!"

Now rational thinking is getting to hard not t see andadmit so they changed it to "intelligent design/evolution"

So heres my question, was adding god into evolution just a way to "beat around the bush" and take credit for evolution and find a way for their god to get credit for it? since, after all, evolution cannot be denied any further.

seriously ppl...

Matt 6:24-34
"No man can serve two masters ... Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
"Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than the meat, and the body than raiment?
"Behold the fowls of the air; for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
"And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
"Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? ..."

Now bible is surely a pile of horse dung, and anyone who has raised honest voice and critical reasoning towards it has been condemned and jailed by the christian authorities throughout history.

Another example is Thomas Woolston
Thomas Woolston, English writer, was put under house arrest for the remainder of his life when he voiced doubt about the resurrection and other Bible miracles.

Can't christian prove themselves rather than attacking other honest people?

Please bearear with me. I was astounded to discover last night that it is not God that does the punishing. I had always been very trubled with the notion that God would condem anyone to hell and sufferring. Then I read last night in "Heaven and Hell" that man who loves evil and the way of the world when he dies the angels try to persuda him to come to heaven. But such is his love for evil and lust of earth that HE actually turns his back on Christ,even then, because he ca not abide the divine truth and the divine light and he wants to join his fellow cohorts in the realms of hell. Does this make sense to anybody as to me it certainly addressess the athiestic point of a bad God who wants us to suffer and be in hell. Actually it shows the conrary, that God is love a nd continually strives for the divine light to keep man with Him. Oh my God if only I had realized this years ago. It is man that makes man suffer not God almighty. Please correct my theology if i'm wrong
Love Michael

I got this email, out of respect I won't say from who. I already responded but I wanted to see what you guys would have said.

Subject: Humanist and their World

Message: You also most likely believe in Evolution. Your in good company. History is full of dictators who attempt to eliminate a Supernatural Creator who gets in their way. Eliminating GOD has always been the prefered route that mass mudering dictators take. Stalin, Lenin, Marx, Hitler, Mao, Pol Pot and Castro are all examples of Anti-GOD Humanist. Currently, these same groups are pushing the Global Warming Lie. Can you explain to me how the greatest society that has ever existed (America); Was founded on Christian Principles. Even your Violin, was invented by Chrisitans.

Many say its ok to dislike but the bible never says anything about, Hate and dislike are the same thing, Either Love or Hate, their is no inbetween. Many people say "I love the person becasue i have too but i just dont like them". This sound pretty crazy if you ask me, Here is a more logical answer " I Love the person but i dont like the things that they do", this sounds much better and makes more since.

God Loves all but he hates sin, God Love homosexuals as people and his creation but he hates what they do. When people say "I Love them but Dislike Them" They are contradicting themselves, they are really saying "I love them but Hate them". You cannot use somthing the word "dislike" just to make it sound less harsh, lol.

Whatever about the moral and legal issues, it's become clear that the war in Iraq was a big political mistake (as was predictable and predicted). Western freedoms are being undermined. The world is much less safe. Iraq has degenerated into civil war. At least the tyrant Saddam was a secularist and kept the Islamic extremists at bay. But even his execution was botched, and succeeded in turning him into a martyr for some.

Christian Fundamentalism played a large part in this mistaken war for these reasons, among others:

They see things in naive, literalist, "good and evil", "black-and-white","us-and-them" terms. Because of the self--righteous tendency in fundamentalism, they believe they alone are saved: therefore they are right and everyone else is wrong. Also, for doctrinal reasons fundamentalists tend to ignore the Sermon on the Mount (with its pacifist implications). They project their own negativity unto the Islamic fundamentalists, who are their mirror image-etc.
