James 2: 14

"My friends, what good is it to say you have faith, when you don't do anything to show that you really do have faith? Can that kind of faith save you? If you know someone who doesn't have any clothes or food, you shouldn't just say, "I hope all goes well for you. I hope you will be warm and have plenty to eat." What good is it to say this, unless you do something to help? Faith that doesn't lead us to do good deeds is all alone and dead"

Ahhh, indeed indeed , it is by Jesus of Nazareth whose oxygen was Justice, Whose occupation was forgiveness and Whose sole aim was to Love without Judgement. Alas, What a state of Mind?

and I was informed that no one really believes that when they say it.
So why do those "true christians" make that claim that others are not "true christians" if it is not pride and love of self?

I'm getting thumbs down for saying that when I get upset at R&S I just go and flirt with the cute guy in accounting for awhile. What's wrong with that?

The questioner at the link below asked about scientists asserting the world was flat. Naturally, answerers asserted, those weren't 'real' scientists. [The way Jim Jones wasn't a 'real' Christian]

Okay. Only a few months before Kitty Hawk the leading not-yet-scientists were declaring heavier-than-air flight to be impossible.

How is it, scientists are only wrong in retrospect? How is it they're always right, this moment?

So i believe in god, but i don't really like following one single religon, i'm open minded so i just incorporate concepts of different religons/cultures into my life. like i celebrate christmas--but i'm not a hardcore christian that goes beyond and looks at christmas as a time of jesus' birth and all that, i just look at christmas as a time of giving and being close to your family.

Would it be agnostic...? but i heard agnostics don't believe in god.

That is what atheists say. But what is think is that "atheism" was a word to made up things that are not possible for us to do. Like creating life.

Phillipians 4 If you are an atheist or other you don't have to look at this !!
10-14I'm glad in God, far happier than you would ever guess—happy that you're again showing such strong concern for me. Not that you ever quit praying and thinking about me. You just had no chance to show it. Actually, I don't have a sense of needing anything personally. I've learned by now to be quite content whatever my circumstances. I'm just as happy with little as with much, with much as with little. I've found the recipe for being happy whether full or hungry, hands full or hands empty. Whatever I have, wherever I am, I can make it through anything in the One who makes me who I am. I don't mean that your help didn't mean a lot to me—it did. It was a beautiful thing that you came alongside me in my troubles.
I have at age 56 and I'm telling you I have few earthly securities but with God as my husband I even have a current example, I just sold 3 yards of fabric on ebay for $76 now who done that ?

Jesus Christ will decide our faith based on our acts in life. He said “Do not judge”. So why the Christian Church and the followers are so judgmental? They should rest assured that no sinner will get away when Last Judgment Day comes.

And by now means I am generalizing all Christians…

A question was recently asked why all those who are not Christian could believe that we were created by anything other than God. One answer was..."intelligence". Is this person saying that all those who are not Christians are not intelligent? I strongly disagree...your thoughts?

Anyone else find it strange that God gave two choices

A) eternal joy
B) eternal suffering

And somehow we're supposed to be seduced by eternal suffering? Anyone consider that this is the same scare tactic that all abrahamic religions use?

I started thinking about why did I just send them away. I was like I should have listened to them and explained a few things to them about how the JW is just a big cult. Perhaps help them to worship God in the right way. Has anyone ever tried to talk to them and get them on the right track? I may have just let two souls go on to Hell. Or do you think they will get all offended and just blow me off? Any experiences with that? If so Id love to hear them or if I shouldnt beat myself up over this. Peace out............

Ok there was the Earth in the center of the Universe, science won. Rainbows were miracules, science won. Etc. Etc.

Seriously has there ever been a "debate" that science has lost?

If you believe in Noah's ark, you probably also believe that the earth is less than 10000 years old. Science has shown that separate countries existed 10000 years ago. So, how did animals that only exist on certain countries get to the ark? No kangaroo bones have ever been found outside of Australia, so how did they get to the middle east to catch a ride? What about sloths from South America? Surely something moving that slow wouldn't have made it even if it was on the same continent, which is wasn't! What about kiwis from New Zealand?

Afterall.... some folks here love to go on about the crusades and witchhunting (as though they seriously consider population-control to be a bad thing)... but when precisely did christianity's fierce war-making totally come to an end? When did people stop getting executed for heresy in primarily christian countries?

Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to
eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. On him God the
Father has placed his seal of approval.
-- John 6:27
THOUGHT:
What are you spending the biggest bulk of your life working for?
Is it a boss, a promotion, a sense of importance, a secure
lifestyle ...? If it can be taken from you, or you can be removed
from it, then it's not very permanent is it! Only what Jesus gives
us is truly lasting, and it comes from God's grace. So how can you
more fully invest yourself in work that "endures to eternal life"?

PRAYER:
Un-cloud my thinking, dear God, so that I may more clearly see
what it is that I'm working for in my life. Help me find ways to
invest myself, "my" time, and "my" money in those things that are
eternal. But, dear Father, I must confess that I will need your
help to find my significance in my relationship with you and not in
what I do, produce, and accomplish. Please forgive and stre
