Is it because they don't love the good Lord?

Eph.6:5
Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God.

Col.3:22
Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ.

Tit.2:9-10
Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God.

1 Pet.2:18
Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.

Whether your Muslim, Hindu, Christian, Athiest or something else...isn't the bottom line to love one another?

A-Everytime rotten Christians rear their heads, good Christians claim the bad ones aren't true Christians.

B-At the same time, most Christians claim mankind is inately wretched and in need of a savior. I.e. people have a tendency to do bad things and this is why they should ask for salvation through Christ.

A and B cannot both be true. Which 1 is it?

The most logical and honest explanation is: some Christians are good and some aren't. This applies to all groups (atheists, plumbers, doctors, cops, Jews, gentiles, indian chiefs, etc...).

Since many Atheists quote *The Netherlands* and how great they are living, I can find every reason why we should not go into that direction just doing a Google Search
Who pays for Sweden's free lunch?
Dependence on state handouts is widespread amongst the adult generations. Today around 21-22 percent of the Swedish population in working age is being supported by one form government handout or another, up from around 11 percent in 1970 (as reported by Swedish Public Television 15th March 2005).

Many unemployed people are unwilling to take jobs that pay less than their former employment. The reason is that government compensation is often almost as high as their previous salaries; taking a job that pays less than their old one might very well mean lower income than the state benefit.

A GOD Loving Nation is the only one that strives and survives unless you can do better than the Netherlands?

If so! Why is it that when a question is asked relating to Jesus and the Bible, many accuse someone of Preaching. When all other beliefs can give great details and no one accuses them of Preaching? Even Athiest give great details in what they believe (or whould I say) in what they don't believe, and nobody accuses them of Preaching their disbeliefs?

keep in mind, males inherit their Y chromosomes from their fathers only. (mothers cannot contribute as women do not have Y chromosomes.)

so all three of noah's sons should've had the exact same chromosomes as their father and brothers. and all of THEIR children should've had identical chromosomes, as well as their grandchildren, etc.

in reality though, there are many types of Y chromosomes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Y-chromosome_DNA_haplogroups). why is this if all men are descended of noah??

Do you have your own made up analogy for explain salvation or perhaps a parable that you use. I'm not looking for a Biblical example just something maybe you would explain Christ and Salvation?

Mine..well it's corney but I relate getting saved to go to the chiropractor. Before you go you feel something is not quit right but you've never felt anything was quit right so you think you are ok..., but once the chiropractor puts you in line you feel what it is like for the first time to be the way God created you to be. And anytime somethings out of place after wards you recognize it right away. Salvation is the same. You can't expect anyone to understand it or except it because they don't know what it's like to be forgiven...to have to weight of sin lifted off their shoulders....to be the way God created them to be. Make since? Yea again I know it's corny

I am 41 yrs old. I have two wonderful children age 2 and 9 months. I recently received a diagnosis of liver cancer that has metastisized throughout my body. The doctors have told me that I have 1 month or less to live. I want to believe in God and an after life but I'm not sure that I really do. Any suggestions?

Okay, so I believe in God, I've accepted Jesus as my savior. I have my own personal relationship with him so I know there's a place for me in heaven.

But I would love for you other people (don't mean this in a mean way) to prove to me how you know the Bible is true and accurate? Man wrote it, and we all know Man is not trustworthy so how can you be so sure that its true? There's no physical proof that it is and there are SO many different versions of the Bible. I believe Jesus died for our sins, there is physical proof of that, but the Bible was written by Man so that is hard to believe anything that is written in there.

Give me some physical proof that the Bible is true. And don't babble off verses, that's only going dig you deeper in a hole. :)

And this is PURE curiosity people so chill out and don't go all nuts on me. lol

of saying (I believe) one Pater Noster in honour of st. John the Evangelist? If so, do you know the history behind it, and the promise attatched to it?

I think I read it in the book called "Prayers and Heavenly Promises" but I lost the book and I'm trying to remeber the devotion.

Sweden, society’s attitudes towards teenage sexual relationships are liberal, and sexual and reproductive health issues are given high priority. Genital chlamydial infections have increased from 14 000 cases in 1994 to 22 263 cases in 2001, 60% occurring among young people, and with the steepest increase among teenagers. Thus, a question of major concern is whether and how adolescent sexual behaviour has shifted towards more risky practices during the late 1990s. Netherlands and Belgium were the first countries to give full marriage rights to homosexuals. In the United States some politicians propose “civil unions” that give homosexual couples the full benefits and responsibilities of marriage. These civil unions differ from marriage only in name.

Meanwhile in the Netherlands polygamy has been legalised in all but name. Last Friday the first civil union of three partners was registered. Victor de Bruijn (46) from Roosendaal “married” both Bianca (31) and Mirjam (35) in a ceremony

What should we make of these verses?

Proverbs 23:20-21 warns us, "Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags." Proverbs 28:7 declares, "He who keeps the law is a discerning son, but a companion of gluttons disgraces his father." Proverbs 23:2 proclaims, "put a knife to your throat if you are given to gluttony."

I'm not saying all religious people are close minded but that what many religions teach. "Read the bible, do what it says. Do not think for your self." Neither are all non-religious people open-minded. But is religion spreading enough of the belief to be making a difference? Would all of these religious people be this way without the religious influence?
