Religion & Spirituality - 4 September 2007

Have you studied this topic? Do you believe the "spirit of antichrist" is already at work to bring "peace without Jesus' leading to the day he will deceive thousands (millions) then demand worship and his true colors (as satan himself) will be revealed when it's too late? There was a movie made about this, can't remember the name of it? Can anyone identify this movie?

that some people say they don't believe in God, but whenever something bad happens to them they blame it on Him? Meaning they do believe in him but I don't know I'm confused...

why did he create the rest of the universe?

what point would there be in the billions of other Galaxies, if they hold no life?

if other life does exist on these other worlds, what makes us the more prominant beings, in Gods Eyes?

believed that technology would turn against us and the world would end. The Santorini have a similar view only they believe only the "wicked" will perish. Looking at the current state of our world - not just man made issues but also the apparent increase in natural disasters, the disappearance of so many species of frog and the situation with the bees what are your thoughts on this?

and how the hell did people come to the conclusion that explosions create things
(big bang theory)

have you ever seen a explosion create something? hell no but i seen it destroy ****

better yet have you ever seen a monkey evolve? i highly doubt it

theres as much proof to support your theories as there is proof to support the existance of god (as you people put it)

And I've done research, the pope does not have to be a priest. He doesn't even have to be catholic when they vote him in. He just has to convert soon after. What's up with that?

Contrary to popular belief, yes. reincarnation does happen and still happens.
You are correct to say that many refuses to believe that it does happen. Even Billy Graham refuses to believe that it happens. Which I find to be humorous, because with him you're talking about someone who refuses to believe it, yet preaches about it and unknowingly tells people how it is possible to happen.
The ancient meaning of reincarnation is: The spirit existed before the body it had entered.
If you read the entire King James bible, in which apparently Billy Graham has never in his life had done, then you should find where it says that God's son appears on the earth only 3 times. First as a man, second time in the image of God, 3rd/final time as a man.
The bible clearly says that God's son will live on the earth as a man. he'll die, then at a later date he'll appear in the image of God, then in the actual last days, he'll return to the earth again through childbirth. No man or angel will know that he's been born on the earth again and living among the people. Only God will know his son is living on the earth among the people for the 1st 30 something years. He'll return under a new name.
That is talking about reincarnation.
The preachers, scholars etc refuse to talks about that evnet of the bible because that will mean that when God's son returns in the last days as a man and living among the people, especially only God will know. Not even the angels will know. Then that would mean all of them are actually false preachers and scholars and have been lying to people through out the years.
The souls are not created at the hands of men as many believes. Including you, everyone has existed before your spirit, soul was put inside your body. The soul is created by God, not men.
Think. The bible warns that all things created by at the hands of men will be destroyed. Is not the human body created at the hands of men? Does not the man and woman have to work together to create a baby?
If the soul was actually created at the hands of men, then regardless, it's guarantee to be destroyed.
Jesus said that you would have to be foolish to even mention of such a thing as reincarnation. Think. Men preach that Jesus Christ was God himself, correct? God keeps secrets, correct? The old testament says that you must be willing to be foolish to defend God. Think. What did Jesus say? He said you would have to be foolish to even mention about reincarnation.
Think. Why would Jesus say you would have to be what it takes to defend God to even mention about reincarnation?
Jesus Christ never said reincarnation doesn't happen. He simply said you would have to be what it takes to defend God, that is, you would have to be foolish.
Jesus Christ birth was an example of reincarnation, according to the ancient meaning of reincarnation. The spirit existed before it entered the body.
God's son returns to the earth a 2nd time, which shall be his 3rd time, as a man through childbirth.
That's reincarnation (Unmistakably).
Jesus Christ is the father. Was God himself. God keeps secrets.
Adam was God's son. He 1st appeared as a man.
He made a 2nd appearance in the image of God.
Remember when Jesus Christ the father was baptized. A spirit appeared and spoke, saying this is my son, I'm proud of him. People assumes that was God. The bible doesn't say it was God.
That's the only place in the bible that shows an image of God appearing. God's son 2nd appearance is in the image of God. Adam was God's son. That was Adam when he made his 2nd appearance, which was in the image of God.
Do you recall Jesus saying God's son is in heaven? How can God be inside Jesus and also be descending from heaven at the same time. There's only one God, not two.
God couldn't have been in 2 places, because then there would have been 2.
God's son will return in the last days to harvest the crop he tilled. God told Adam to till.
Yes, reincarnation actually does happen.
You all have died once spiritually. There's 2 types of death. (A spiritual and a physical).
Your spirit died and was placed inside your body. Remember the verse that says the dead inside him. Well, now you should be understanding what that means.
The spirit inside of him is dead, although you body looks alive.
Like wise with all of the people.
The spirit inside the people is dead, although the people looks alive.
Lets just say you people are the living dead.
When you die, you'll still be spiritually dead. You die only once.
Lets say all of you were created in the sixth day. Eventually you died spiritually, when you did, you were put inside a body. Then at a future date, you may have died physically, the body your in had died that is, then your spiritually dead soul may have re entered a body again. That process can repeat as often as God would want it to. Regardless of how many times you reincarnate, you'll not actually be reborn spiritually again until God's son lift up those who are to be lifted up to the real heaven in the real end time.

Obviously there had to be something to explode and create the rock and elements in our universe. I think there was one giant mass that blew up like a nuclear bomb. Where did that mass come from? Was it floating in the nothingness of the universe and where did the energy that caused the explosion come from?

Thinking about such things is a good argument for God. Maybe everything didn't happen on earth the way that it is stated in the bible, but something had to be behind the creation of the universe. And if there is a God then where did he come from?

I am a Catholic so I know that I am bias, but it seems that other Christians don't understand any of the Catholic teachings, and yet, there denominations came from the Roman Catholic Church.

Example: Some people think that Catholics worship Marry and saints, which is false of course.

So please, Catholics and Christians, bring some light to the subject for me.

If UFO's exsist, life on other planets whatever, they would come from stories told in the Old Testament like King Nebuchadnezzar?
Nebuchadnezzar, the King of Babylon who had recently conquered Jerusalem, flattened its walls, stripped its Temple of all its treasure (presumably including the Language of the Birds and the Ark of the Covenant), set the city ablaze, and returned home to Babylon with the treasure of the Temple and a group of royal prisoners of war.

Babel originates from the word Bab-li, which in the Babylonian language meant ‘Gate of God ’. This is our first tip-off that Nebuchadnezzar attempted to construct a means --perhaps even a stargate -- to transcend earth life and travel the cosmos.

Included among the captives were three wise men from the Temple, a young man and ‘master magician’ named Daniel, and another prominent prophet, Ezekiel, who had visions of ‘the kingdom of Heaven on Earth’ while imprisoned in Babylon.
The entire Bible is prophetic in nature,

of not speaking the Creator's Name when the scriptures clearly command us to praise His Name and tell us that His Name is His memorial "Zacharyah". By the way, I am not Jehovah's Witness "Jehovah" is not His Name, just a tragic mistranslation of the tetragramaton by ignorant and quarrelsome European scholars.

James 5:16
'Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.'

So many of us are bound by lies that we have told to people we are close to. And that is a horrible way to live. Lies can really haunt us and it can also give the devil permanent residence in our relationships, our marriages, and our minds. You see, as long as you are living the lie, you cannot ever be free. As long as you are protecting the lie and constantly covering it, nurturing it, and sticking to it, the process of healing or getting past it never begins.

I love my Catholic faith because I believe it is the fullness of all that Christ taught. I also find it intellectualy stimulating because the writings of the great doctors of the Church, saints, popes, theologians, et al throughtout the ages are so prolific and so profound. Much great learning and philosophy have come from these men and women.

I can sympathize with athiests' dislike of evangelicals and "fundies", because their answers are so simplistic, trite and condemning, like a sledgehammer blow. But I can smypethize with the fundies too when they try to tell athiests that there truly is a God. BOTH sides can often annoy me.

Are there any other Catholics (or anyone else) that feel this way?...like you're in the middle of no-man's land?

...or believed that you had a prayer answered but no longer believe that it was actually God (in the case of the ex-Christians and Atheists)?

Lifelong atheists, of course, will say "no." So unless you have actually prayed to God, or have something interesting or funny to add, don't bother.

btw, just for the curious, I'm atheist.

Christians, if you've NEVER had a prayer answered, I REALLY want to hear from you. :) So please, be honest, as your God commands.
