for you religious people, 2 questions.

1. if got has a devine plan, why would god change it just because you want something to go your way or how you want?

2. When you pray and it doesnt get answered and you say its god's will, and when it is answered its god's will, so why bother even praying, why not just skip it and go straight to god's will?

Why don't most fellow Christians know their Church history but accuse you of being wrong of your belief?

I Am Apostolic and i have talked to so many people who tell me what certain scriptures talk about, when you ask them "how do you know?" They say because its in the bible but many of them don't know the history of the bible or the early church belief, they just go by what the preacher says or just by their own interpretation.

I hear the same explaination all the time of certain scripture and its sad to know that many lack knowledge of scripture, Jesus said "My people perish for the lack of knowledge".

Ex. Thou shalt not Kill
Many dont know this is not the original wording, The Hebrew scripture is "Thou shalt not Murder"

Ex. John 1: 1, 2 is assumed to mean Two persons of the Godhead, I asked why, they say " because it says it", According to Historians, Scholars, and even some Former Trinitarians, John 1: 1, 2 does not mean a Trinity, even the early church Fathers

I have always been a Christian, but I am not a regular church-goer. I work a lot on Sundays and this keeps me from being able to attend. Over the past few weeks, I have had some hardships in my life and because of this I am completely broke and alone and I don't know where I can turn other than to God. I want to take my children to church today, but I have no money for the offering plate. I do not want to go and not put anything in the basket if this is wrong. What do you think?

What was it that you read, heard, or had happen to you that caused you to no longer believe? I ask this because I do not understand. Nothing in this life can separate me from Christ. There is nothing I can think of that would cause me to doubt my faith. Indeed nothing life could throw at me. Not preaching just seriously curious.

Peace Be With You.

Are born again christians better than just plain old christians? Isn't the idea of being "born again" only like 20 or 30 years old? Who was the "prophet" that came up with this? Did Jesus ever talk about being "born again"? Would he approve or think it is some kind of gimmic?

In one of the Mega- Churches there's a pastor who requires that all his members bring in their pay stubs so that he and the Trustees can know if they are paying their full tithes.

I'm not asking this question to bash Christians. I'm a Christian. I would just like to know what you think.

if Jesus came down and told you in your face:

Matthew 19:17
.... Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

1st commandment: you shall not take other gods before Me! (God)

if Jesus told you in your face:
John 8:42
Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.

if he said this in your face:
"my God, my God, why haven't you forsaken me?"

if he said this in your face:
Mark 12:29
And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:


then will you still says to Jesus you are God ? then you have no excues when you face the real God in the day of judgment.

if christians had to ask for forgiviness and repent, then what is the point of Jesus death?
so Jesus died for our sins, then here i am going to do any crime i wish to do? are good people equal to bad people. everyone is responsible of his own deeds, and God has the power of forgiviness no one need to die so God can forgive. God already forgave to those who came before Jesus in the old testimony and is able to forgive for those who will come after. all you have to do is just simply have to raise your hands to God and ask him honestly about forgiviness. Jesus did not die for anyone sins, but the preachers had to find some excueses and explanation from their own to answer the hundred questions related to Jesus torture and death. just like how preachers tried to find an excues to explain why Jesus said "my God! my God! why haven't you forsaken me!". they come up with their own explanation and pretend as it's in christianity and it's not.

This idea is disputed by some modern scholars. What is the modern consensus, if any, among REPUTABLE scholars [i.e. not those with vested church interests]? Could gnosticism have been around first?

if people are creating idols of Jesus and Mary putting it infront of their houses, inside their houses, selling it in stores, and putting it in churges, then what makes christianity different than any other faiths that creates idols as well.

Jesus and Mary idols:

Hindu idols:

then why did you disbelieve, what pushes you away from the teaching of the massenger of God the Messiah Jesus son of Mary who command you to never worship anything else except God alone, then why did you disbelieve?

How could you say that Jesus died for your sins? did Jesus said that?
Did you know that Jesus never wanted to die on the cross and he is not even willing to die for you. Haven't you read in the Bible that he was praying not to die on the cross, Read Luke 22:42 & Jesus even cried just to save him from the death in the cross. So if Jesus is willing to die for you he could never have done this things, begging for help from his father no to die and he even blame God Read it in Mark 15:34 "My God, My God" why hast thou forsaken me.

So this is really the opposite of your beliefs and the preachers are saying that he died for your sins.

A piece of advice my friend don't just depend on what the preachers or ministers are teaching you but kindly do research for yourselves and you shall find the truth, and don't be blinded by the truth.

I have heard just recently one of his audio the 7 spiritual laws of success. And in my personal opinion this person is so knowledgeable about religion. I dont know where or how he knows so much about karma, purpose of life, universe, consciousness and a lot more. His audio is a must listen.

Adam called the son of God as well:
Luke 3:38
.... which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God.

Son = an honor servent to God

and if you insist that Jesus came from a virgin birth, then what do you think of this animal who also is a virgin birth?
http://www.livescience.com/animals/061220_virgin_births.html

how about the first chicken, first tiger, first bird...etc . why can't you understand that when God wants something to happen He just says Be! and it will Be!. the virgin birth of Jesus does not indicate he is God or son of God, but rather an honor servent to God who born by a miracle and a sign to the children of Israel. God (the one who created Jesus ) should be worshiped alone.
