In other words, How to recognize the Real Brahmins, who are True Representatives of God to tell others of the ways of God ?

Remember, the conflicting scriptures can have several meanings for the same word, yet opposite in Nature ?

In this matter which interpretation of what scripture are intended by God for Us ? How to know it ? Is it something an Inward Process ? or Inward and Outward both ? or both but priority to inward ? or both but priority to outward ? or is it changing from time to time ? Like Priests of today are no more God's spokesperson for tomorrow and vice versa ?

How would a common man of lower intelligence find his own path towards Godhood among these conflicting thoughts ?

Is asking intensely to the 100 % Omnipotent, Omnipresent and Omniscient God directly the solution or is it seeking thru mediums the better policy ?

Even then who is the right one to assess the right medium and why ?

First of all hotel/motels are businesses, and I seriously doubt that they were created with divine inspiration. That's laughable.

So they're going to put bibles in rooms where many people (esp motels) have sex, do drugs, and discuss business deals.

And then you're going to throw in a bible there.

I know it's unintentional, but the whole deal is soooooooo blasphemous on every level.

It's like putting a bible in a wh)rehouse.

then again, I guess throwing "god" in "evil" places may do the trick? LOL!

(not saying hotel/motels are evil),

I just never understood the reasoning behind it.

22Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' 23Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'

my question is this - if these people who were driving out the demons and performing miracles were not doing it in God's name - how were they doing it

the only thing I could think of was that they were all faking it - like a healthy man making believe to be cripple then getting up to walk when one of these guys prays over them
other then that -
if not that then where would the "power" come from

"In 1844 the issues of missionary work and slavery came to a peak. The Home Mission Society gave a statement saying that a person could not be a missionary and wish to keep his slaves as property. This caused the Home Mission Society to separate northern and southern divisions. As a result of this the Baptists in the south met in May of 1845 and organized the Southern Baptist Convention"

"The consequences of this decision have been long lived. A survey by the Home Mission Board in 1968 showed that only eleven percent of Southern Baptist churches would admit Americans of African descent.[4] The Southern Baptist Convention of 1995 voted June 20 to adopt a resolution renouncing its racist roots and apologizing for its past defense of slavery. The racism resolution marked the denomination's first formal acknowledgment that racism played a role in its founding. "

It took the Southern Baptists until 1995 to admit they were wrong...don't you think they are a bit out of touch?

It's been said the "third day" is also the 7th in John 1 & 2:1.
Day = Light. It's now the "third day(light)", beyond 2000AD.
Perhaps 0 - 2000AD was what's biblically called "last days".
Perhaps it was for comparison of the great vs greater lights;
But the "last day(light)" is about the greatest light, of 3 things.
For the end declared from the beginning: "Let there be light",
seems to be about that God is light having no darkness at all.

Converted Peter reminds us of the allegory aspect of 1 day [is] as 1000 yrs and 1000 yrs [is] as 1 day. 2Peter3 also allegorically compares the two biblical options for the last day: The day of the LORD vs The day of God; Noting we should all be looking for and hasting unto the Day(Light) of God: "that light" of "that God" having "no darkness at all", allegorically the pure grace of "the God of all grace" having no law at all, which is also eternal life having no death at all.

Amos 5:18 notes The day of the LORD is darkness, not light.

Do you know why you was sent into this world?
Did you ever discover your unique function or mission in life.
I believe we all have a small part in God's plan.
I think the elderly people can answer these questions better?
I would like to learn and hear from others

I just read this as part of answer, obviously copied from some godisrealdammit.com website:

"....In order to state that there is no proof for God's existence, the atheist would have to know all alleged proofs that exist in order to then state that there is no proof for God's existence. But, since he cannot know all things, he cannot logically state there is no proof for God's existence....."

Are these people serious? if so, please show me the hidden proof.

So, if I believe that, for example, it's ok to snatch babies from their mothers arms and trample them with a herd of elephants, this belief must automatically be respected?

Yikes!

firstly, i am atheist and i think the idea of god is rediculas, that aside, the prosess of an animal developing flippers/wings/sonar/antivenoms ect ect over thousands of years could suggest that some sort of force is at work, then it could argued that the force is god, for that matter why don't religeous nutters make this argument rather than denying it even happens? p.s i may have just given religios whack jobs more ammo for their delution, YOUR THOUGHTS!!!
