"As the Bible, 'the message is...so inextricably human and divine in one, that no single sentence can be quoted as having the authority of an authentic utterance of the All-Holy God."
-Professor John Baillie quoting Archbishop Temple

...if you do read the bible and use you're logic not you're faith to understand the bible.
why? because its an automatic win if u use you're faith. and if you haven't read the bible than why do you believe in god ...maybe because you're parents raised you that way ...or maybe its because you want to believe that something good will happen to you after you have died. Open that brain of your's and realize that the bible is not to be taken literally ...the stories in the bible are to teach moral values and etc. Plus their is no possible way you can prove that god exist. Plus i think that we can all agree that if their is a god "that maybe ...just maybe he doesn't give a ****>"(George Carlin). plus you have to remember that faith is given at random. You don't chose what faith you can get sucked into. If you were born in some other part of the world you my friend would be believing in some other god doing what your god knows what. So does anyone want to challenge me?

JWs, if you win a convert, do you consider the fact that you may have taken advantage of someone that didn't know their theology as well as you do? Were you in the same position when you converted to JW theology? Did you examine their teachings first against other theologies, or did you just dive right in?

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. (Colossians 1:15) If you stop here and listen to what you are told this means you could fall trap to this think of jesus is not God. if you keep reading what the bible says after this verse you will not think you will know Jesus is God.
He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. Colossians 1:15-17
Here is the big verse you are missing to Think Jesus was Born and not God: And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence. Colossians 1:18 This verse tells us that Jesus was firstborn from the dead and Jesus is the beginning.

Revelation 1 : 12 - 18 NIV
12( a)..."I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me"...
17 + 18" When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. Then he placed his right hand on me and said: ' Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last. I am the Living One; I was dead, and , behold I am alive forever and ever!"

Muslims, what are you doing about the murder done in your name and in the name of your religion? Silence is consent.

Everyday I read about verified kidnappings,murders,rapes,arsons,pogroms,robberies done by Muslim groups(even whole villages) against Non Muslims or against'heretical" types of Muslims.
Is this what Islam is becoming? Is this what Islam really is?
I hope not,but if Muslim don't stop denying or even defending these evils "authentic Islam" will all but disappear.

I've just tortured and killed your entire family. I've also been sentenced, but I've SINCERELY repented - in a big way - and accepted Jesus as my personal savior while on death row. I'm going to heaven, right?

"cult' just means worship or public honor in its original sense.
I think the word,which is intended as an insult, should be retired

You wouldn't even call your human parents by their name and in many cultures it's disrespectful to utter the names of important people like kings. And since Jehovah isn't even the proper name, how would using it be any different than using any other word in place of it?

Jehovah's Witnesses believe Jesus was not God, but an angel.
True Christians believe Jesus was God.

Jesus is Almighty God manifest in the flesh.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. John 1:1-3

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:14

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. Colossians 1:15-17

And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:

God was manifested in the flesh,
Justified in the Spirit,
Seen by angels,
Preached among the Gentiles,
Believed on in the world,
Received up in glory. 1 Timothy 3:16

Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. Philippians 2:5-7

I fear only God. I don't fear any of you! I have posted my e-mail address , my 360 page, and my IM. If any one wishes they can express any view at any time they want. I do read other view points then that which I believe. Some times I even learn stuff from it.
