Does your Pastor ever preach on sins, Hell, the devil, living a righteous life before God, Being a Godly example to otheres, being seperated from the world? If he/she never preaches on these subjects and more they are doing you a great disservice. They are the ones spoken of in Revelation that they will preach a soft gospel, one that is pleasing to the ears.
I pray that they all get some boldness and teach their people about the truth

Non-Christians, do you ever wonder why, OH WHY, we continue to try to be nice to Christians and try to explain our point of view? Do you ever think that it would be better if we just started to totally ignore them? I am getting to that point with the small percentage of Christians who simply are here to judge others and feel good about it. Christians - why do you need to be so judgemental? Where is your SCRIPTURAL AUTHORITY to judge NON-Christians? Chapter and verse, please.

Wouldn't you rather believe in God and fin out he isn't real than to not believe in God and find out he is? Because if you believe in God and find out he isn't real so what you were wrong but you had nothing to lose. And if you don't believe in God and find out he is real ...well let's just say you're in BIG trouble. What do you think?

This is a question for Mormons (I guess non Mormons can reply whether my assertion is correct or not.)

Have you ever thought that the reason so much anomosity develops towards the LDS Church is because you attempt to make it look like mainstream Christianity and hide your differences instead of being open about them?Other groups like the JW's, SDA's have no problem saying where they differ from mainstream Christian doctrine.

Can you see that trying to present yourself as such and not openly admitting your differences especially to those you try to convert make it seem deceptive and this deceptivness is what brings about the anti Mormon backlash?(the only LDS member I have seen on this board which will tell you there are differences is Miranda)

Your crediblity would be greatly enhanced instead of telling people they are wrong about what you believe tell them why they are wrong and what exactly your belief is on the topic. Face it head on. If you are proud of it don't hide.

I believe that sex and nudity are beautiful. I am against censorship of sexual material, when that sexual material is authentic and not being used to trick us into buying something. Unfortunately, almost all sexual material that appears on television is for the purpose of getting our attention or tricking us into buying something. The problem is that it seems to work, especially in America. Why? Remember the Super Bowl Half-time show a few years ago. If you don’t remember, I will recap: Janet Jackson, a musical performer whose career was definitely on the downhill side, essentially said to us, “Hey, I can’t sing, I can’t write songs, I can’t play any instruments, but look at my ****.” We did look at her “****” and everyone talked about Miss Jackson for the next several weeks. How come we are not able to see through such shallow tactics?

put them on your contacts because you wanted to watch them?

I have found two people that worry me enough that I have had to decide whether I wanted to block them or add them to my contacts so I could see what they're up to. I decided to block them, because they are creepy, but I still wonder about them sometimes.

Both tend to hang out here in R&S, which is why the question is here.

With all the put-down I recieve from the (THERE IS NO GOD FOLKS) on my posts, I come back to this site to read what many christians have to say and post about Biblical Prophecy what has happened in the past and what will happen in the future. Of course many of you know my interest is following current events and how prophecy is intertwined in all of it, as Jesus's return is right on the horizon

So what is the attraction for you here?

1. God LOVES you and offers a wonderful PLAN for your life.

"God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life" John 3:16.

Why is it that people are not experiencing the abundant life?

2. Man is SINFUL and SEPARATED from God. Therefore, he cannot know and experience God's love and plan for his life.

Man Is Sinful
"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23.

3. Jesus Christ is God's ONLY provision for man's sin. Through Him you can know and experience God's love and plan for your life.

"God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" Romans 5:8.

4. We must individually RECEIVE Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then we can know and experience God's love and plan for our lives.

"As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name" John 1:12

Okay, some Christians teach that all unsaved sinners suffer the same fate in the afterlife--eternal burning and torment from demons. There are not levels or degrees of punishment, like in Dante's Inferno. While I don't believe in either idea, I'm curious as to how people could view the former example to be just. What if our criminal justice system punished all crimes with the death penalty? It's the same basic idea.

Christians I am very fed up of your threats , I keep seeing posts that say the same thing, convert, repent ,accept Jesus or burn in hell forever.I personally do not respond well to threats of violence(the hell and torture you love to talk about) meant to force me to love your God .What kind of God are you worshipping that will torture his creation based on a religious belief?

I have been in a discussion with a good friend about the correlation of people that have been involved with higher education and their religious beliefs. I believe that people who have an educated background in science and history and all basic schooling have a hard time accepting religious faiths as blindly as uneducated people do. It is hard to accept Genesis when you can SEE evolution and adaptation at work. My discussion partner has asked me for some hard evidence that there is any correlation between higher education and religious beliefs. Can anyone provide discussion or a website or a book reference that can help enlighten me? Thank you so much for any help!

Or if I said," love the follower, hate the religion" or how about "christians are an abomination to God's creation". Or, " christians aren't born the way that they are they choose to be arrogant".

Would you think that I loved them or hated them?
