What is meant by this? Why would God create something he'll have to keep separate from Himself for eternity? And since God is ultimately responsible for evil because He created it, why is the devil blamed for its creation? Why would God create such a thing as evil? I'm confused. This does not fit with my image of God.

Religions which may endorse suicide or those which claim to work for the benefit of the group members but have a negative impact on people?

why should they be banned? Is it even possible to ban a religion if they follow the law of the society?

For example, me and my gf have been arguing for over a week now and we dont know if we just wanna go our serarate ways. Is there a blessing or some kind of ritual that can be done by the priest to bring peace and happiness into the couples life as a replacement for the pain and arguing they were going thru?

I'm open to about everything. I just feel like there is some hate/apprihension floating around, especially after what there is to see on TV day after day. So fill me in, people.

Why do they not believe? It is my personal belief that God and the Holy Spirit help people in finding the truth, but I have met other Christians on here that say that is not true. What do you think? Don't you find it frustrating at times when you think about how many people have closed their minds off to their truth? How can we be so vain to think we know it all?

Most of this prayer is describing praise of, and requests to, God. What is the only descriptive action for us - and why is this important?

Where is the biblical basis found for the idea that animals have no souls?

Galatians 1:8
But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned!

Galatians 1:9
As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be eternally condemned!

NIV Bible

In light of this is preaching another gospel blaspheme against the Holy Spirit?

Throughout the Bible the Lord has promised His saints untold knowledge and power. and yet I see too many Christians who refuse to seek anything outside the Bible. Heck, most settle for a cursory understanding of the Bible.

We have been told to ask for wisdom and anything we desire. So why are people so relunctant to accept more of what the Lord has for them?

I would like us to pray for up the person asking questions as " why_do_we_ask_what_i... -" that God would move on her and help her to find the thruth that she is seeking. I know that the un believers out there will have rude comments, but I know God is real and will answer our prayers. So my question..... Who will pray?

Why did God get so angry about Adam eating a fruit? It seems like it would require a scolding perhaps. But no God had to stick this sin onto Adam and his children and all of his descendent's when they didn't even have anything to do with it. Why was he so upset and hateful.

And in case anyone says it is not literal and instead a fictional story then I have another question. If the story of the original sin isn't literal than what did Jesus die for?

Help would be appreciated.

He said to them, "Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to."

Does this mean that only super Christians can make it? And Christians that try, but not hard enough, won't?

Aren't possessiveness and jealousy symptoms of selfishness?

Isn't selfishness incompatible with Love?

Wouldn't that mean monogamy is incompatible with Love?
