I'm a Chritian with awful wrriten English. I wanna persuade my bro. to accept Jesus as his savior. He's quite a rational person, majoring bio-medicine engineering. And he is quite proud. Can any bro. or sister give me an example of a family letter to persuade him?

If God can see the future, that means he can't do something that would change the future, otherwise the vision of the future would be incorect. Isnt' this a paradox?

It began hundreds of years ago, when the Church changed the Bible. . .


The "New Testament": Pagan revenge

Between G-d's own miracles and the Jewish teaching of His Word, the pagan priest/pastorhoods of Egypt, Greece, and Rome were steadily losing their power over the gentile populations. They decided to fight back by creating a new religion, one that would claim to be the fulfillment of the Hebrew "Old Testament," yet would bring back the pagan lies in a new disguise.

Thus the "New Testament" was written, in Greek rather than Hebrew, and attached to the original Hebrew scriptures to try to change their meaning back toward paganism.

The "New Testament" tried to change G-d from One, as in the Hebrew scriptures, into a "trinity" as in Egyptian cults or the eastern religions of Hinduism and Buddhism. It described Jesus as G-d in a human body, like the pagans always described Pharoah and other wicked kings. It declared G-d's Law to be a "curse" that no one can truly obey, announced that there must be a "mediator" between G-d and man, and pretended that salvation could now be achieved outside the Law.

To blind the gentile nations, the "New Testament" also warned people not to learn from the Jews, declaring that Israel no longer possessed the true, complete Word of G-d.

In the Bible, the book of Daniel warned of an evil power--a false religion--that would believe in the true "G-d of fortresses... plus a god its fathers did not know." This religion would "speak bizarre words about the Most High, wear out the holy ones (the Jews), and plan to change the festivals and the religious Law."7 The Christian Church has indeed replaced Passover with Easter (the pagan holiday of Astarte and Ishtar) and Hanukah with Christmas (the pagan winter holiday).

Jewish Ruling concerning Christianity :

"...according to the known Jewish ruling that Christians are idol worshippers." (Likkutei Sichos 37:198)

------------------

Jewish Ruling concerning Islam :

[36] Maimonides, Responsa, 448

The Muslims [Ishmaelim] are not in any way idolators. [Idolatry] has already been removed from their mouths and their hearts, and they unify G-d in the appropriate manner without any admixture [of idolatrous beliefs].

We have to use the religion and spirituality section.
Then again I'd miss the laughs I get from the believers.

I believe in tithing and really want to do it. But I have ran into a little bit of a hole money wise on a mistake in my budget. In a couple of weeks I should have it all worked out and will be able to tithe faithfully again. But for a few weeks I haven't tithed and it bothers me. Does God understand this? I have faith in God and I know He will always take care of me, good and bad.

(KJV)Zechariah 14:2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

"women ravished" (NIV says "women raped") - This is clearly advocating rape, please tell me how it can be explained differently.

(KJV)Numbers 31:17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
18 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

This is clearly advocating the rape of children, please tell me how it can be explained differently.

Try to avoid cliched attacks on your designated enemy group. Thoughtful answers are more interesting, at least here.

I have learned:

1. about ignosticism (no, not agnosticism) and what it means. Props to Zero Cool.

2. how I like cool and funny people more than those who happen to agree with me

3. more about separation of church and state

4. more about Dawkins' view of religion, general views of science, and the difficulty of theology itself

5. more about myself. I care more and less than I think I care about certain ideas and beliefs. I like people more than I think I do.

Lets say that you have been attending a church regularly and you have always donated money to them. And they love the fact that you are giving them money.
Now lets say you started a famous gay porn site, and the church new about it, and the website was your only source of income, so the money you gave to the church was from the sale of gay pornography, would the church care? Especially if you were giving them like $20,000 every sunday. Would they let you still attend the church or kick you out?

Some people when they see something they believe to have been made by someone they love , immediately remember that somebody when they see his creations .They love that somebody and so their eyes see nothing else but the one who they believe to be the maker .Some people never think of anyone who had made themselves or anything they see though they pay lipservice to the person who they say, had made the things they see ; but do not believe in it really. Some people who firmly believe in somebody( saygod ) see him in all that they think that exist because of him.Some, though they proclaim that they are the sole ,strong, tough and only beleivers in Him do not see him at all anywhere and in anything he had made though they ascribe all sorts of miracles and incredible powers to Him.They arejust keeping in a cage like the ringhmaster of a circus companyand dictate terms to HIM too.Who among these is the person that really sees and believe in HIM.?
