Where in the Bible does it specifically condemn calling God a Goddess or Divine Mother?

I am a spiritual Christian, and wish to call my God this though previously have said God I associate with Goddess better.

truth? Isn't it like listening to a parrot who repeats what he hears, but doesn't understand any of it?

I know rationally that I no longer want to follow that particular path, and I know rationally that I have nothing to fear, but sometimes indoctrination overcomes knowledge.

How do you get past the fear so that you can move on to a path that's more suited for you?

I'm wondering what everyone else thinks about numerology, especially as it applies to religion. Why are some numbers (such as 666 or 13) "scary", some numbers (1 through 8 except 6, 777) "lucky", and some numbers (17, 19, 23, 42) either "special" or referenced in popular culture?

And where did "l337speak" come from (it's okay to groan), and what's the appeal?

Also, I've noticed some people get worked up when they have a song stuck in their head all day, and then they hear it on the radio.

So what's the fascination?

Bible says we receive Christ Through Personal Invitation "Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears my voice and opens the door, i will come into him. (revelation 3:20)

Most church preach that if we sincerly invite Jesus Christ into our lives, by faith through prayer, we have eternal life. Lets say, one point in a person's life, he or she really experience Jesus Christ love for them, faithfully served at church and were growing spiritually. however something happened, and that person falter alway. then from that moment, that person never bothered about his or her relationship with God. They lost faith and love for Jesus Christ. Doe that person have eternal life?
Lets say a person really experience Christ love, served at a church for long time, and everyone thinks that person is really loving the Lord, and bearing fruit. However Bible says not everyone who preach in Jesus name, doing wonders will eternal life. (somewhere in matthew) what does that mean?

This is actually a sincere question. If every Christian, Next Sunday, instead of going to church for 3 hours, spent the time they would have doing charitable work, what do you think would happen? Would anybody convert if 3 hours out of the week were spent doing that instead of sitting in a church? I've got to tell you, the religion would be a lot more appealing if it did.

I ask the JW's at my door "Is there only ONE true God?"
They say "yes".Then I ask,"Then ALL other gods are false gods right?"They say "Yes".Then I ask,"Is Jesus a false god too?"Their NWT calls Jesus "a god" in John 1:1
They have 2 Gods.Also,John the baptist calls Jesus Jehovah in Matthew 3:3

I was wondering if ch'i or "life energy", which is a fundamental part of traditional Chinese culture, is evil. Of course not in its taught concept, which reflects peace and tranquility, but in reality. In evil I mean drawing power from demonic entities to enforce some of the supernatural feats masters of the so called energy flow can do. I know someone who is a born-again christian who was once very deep into eastern teachings and ch'i, who tolled me its evil in nature and that the feats he could do (once braking a heavy-duty lock with his bare hands right in front of me) are demonic in nature.

He also said that one of the ch'i books he learnt from stated that "ch'i is like a spectacular castle outside but within its cold steel and stone". On TV I have also seen monks of the far-east being able to withstand heavy blows with iron and wooden objects and not even feel the pain, and being able to through needles straight through glass.

From what I hear, they think that man was made by aliens....??

Who would believe that, and what evidence do they have. At least Christians, have many relics that the past that help to prove there case, but what alien "relics" do they claim?

I found out from a friend that if I wanted to "join" you because I've had sex before I was married I would have to talk with the "elders" and get their "forgiveness" before I could be part of your congregation (which can take a long time). Also if I did come to your meeting I could not talk to anyone but the "elders" and if someone tried to speak with me I would have to tell them that I was not allowed to speak with them. Isn't my forgiveness between me and God.

I THINK YOU'RE CRAZY (right now)-- please help me to understand your point of view. I'm pretty open minded so please explain.

Here are some scriptures:

Be gentle and forbearing with one another and, if one has a difference (a grievance or complaint) against another, readily pardoning each other; even as the Lord has [freely] forgiven you, so must you also [forgive]. Colossians 3: 13
