were does it say that its wrong
i love god i really do(catholic) but i just cant seem to picture that our god, this kind, loving, caring being, can put out certin people just beacause they are in love with the same gender.

loving the same gender isnt as bad as killing some one or even telling a lie.

i was taught that god loves everyone, but why not gays?

Do you REALLY believe that Jesus claimed to be 'God', 'The Son of God' or even a part of the 'Trinity'?

If you do, then which is it? Did Jesus claim to be all three?

Notice that I carry a lot of love and respect for Jesus, and so I definately know that Jesus didn't lie about anything, but I do believe that there's been a misinterpretation about who Jesus really is.

Any explainations?

(My point is not to bash anyone at all, I'm just looking for answers).

You feel, from the bottom of your heart that you have the truth.

Do you acknowledge that other's may have just as strong of a conviction in their beliefs...eventhough, they may differ from yours.

How do you rationalize such thought? If you feel your way is the only way....yet, you realize that other's feel the same about their beliefs.

Can you answer this question without scripture....for you may believe it to be 100% truth...but, someone else may believe their, "holy book" to be 100% truth.

How do you rationalize such thought?

jesus said blasphemy against holy spirit is unforgivable. look at 2 chronicles 7:19-22. throughout the old testaments, idolatry seems unforgivable. for this reason, the king david(despite his adultery & murder) is blessed by god. for this reason, the king solomon did was not as much blessed as his father king david. blasphemy is just like a treason to the kingdom of god while idolatry is like a defection. what do you think?

He is my hero, my reason for living, my overall. How can I contact Aaron Carter to tell him all this to his face and then he will propose and we will marry and have 6 kids that will become in R+S regulars someday?
Is that user with the name Aaron Carter the real Aaron Carter?

it's believed that marijuana was used in annointment oils mentioned in the bible. kaneh-bosm, as it was referred to was wrongly translated as calamus, when it was actually Cannabis. assuming this is true, is it possible the bush mentioned in the story of the burning bush is actually marijuana? it would certainly account for someone hallucinating and seeing "god".

Jesus said * Share the Good News* he never said PROVE the Good News to Scoffers and heathens..

Free Will again- I think most on this site like myself are sharing thier faith and our beliefs on that faith, wether it's Christianity, Judiasm, Islam, Hindu and pagan beliefs.

I think most Christians are confident 100% with faith in Jesus Christ , that GOD exsits and the joy we have in the Holy Spirit.

We are just offering the good news to you, but of course you can reject, but we owe you no proof-understand?

Some might come to this site (Non-Regulars) read posts of all kinds and might come to the lord, be a scoffer or go home and drink Kool-Aid, the point being is we all have free will and of course Americans we have the right to free speech, one poster an atheist (Could be wrong) stated Atheists are more for socialism or communism and so
we need to nix that out of American Society.

Why don't wealthy suburban churches build in the inner city? The truly hurting and needy people are primarily found in the inner cities?
How much time does your church spend helping those less fortunate? Do you ever leave your compound in the suburbs to help the needy?

Matthew 25: 37-40

37"Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?'

40"The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'


I ask this because I see inner-city churches closing their doors for lack of funds. I see homeless people wandering the streets of the inner city. But, I see Prestonwood Baptist in Plano, TX, ( a Dallas suburb)spend $200,000.00 per month on utilities....

I'm not asking for any justification, I'm just curious if god comes before your children in your personal order of importance?

Say you went to prison and were forced to "convert" by fellow inmates (or pretend to). Considering many of your past experiences with Christianity, how well do you think you could fake it? Do you think you could actually be a priest to the prisoners?

Just a weird thought that crossed my mind... thought I'd share and see what you thought.

they cant do anything fun without fear of "sin"
ive even seen some who say you cant even watch horror movies because the movies are "evil"
and why do many of them say anything the least bit enjoyable is satans work?
if what they say is true, then god is pretty boring

Aren't you in denial?
Being hurt is not the same as thinking the one who hurt you doesn't exist.

that which they have experienced and felt, without fanfair or pride in any way - just as a matter of the ordinary "this is how life is" they are ridiculed and verbally beaten?

For me, the presence of God in my life just "is". I do not doubt that He's there, around me and in me. It's part of my life, part of my being, part of what I breathe. It's the most natural feeling to me. Others find similar experiences with their own beliefs. I find it interesting then, when explaining my experiences to others (after being asked of coure) that people find it necessary to express their thoughts, or even have a need, to go out of their way to thumbs down or riducule truthful statements.
Your thoughts?

This perverted, sex-driven nation is creating monsters like this daily!!

What pitiful state of affairs this world is headed to.
It all seems to get worse and WORSE.
Stay in the Word, brethren. This world is NOT our home. Stay firm in the Lord. There are people out there that are literally POSSESSED by the devil. Watch your family brethren. Satan is out there.

Why deny that you are God?

After all, it make sense.

God has to create the universe, because God is completely alone. Loneliness has driven God insane, so God imagined to be mortal and fancied some strange world right out from a divine mind.

God is in pain, so the world created is full of suffering. But God already can't stand it's own pain, so God shuts everything out by pretending to be mortal.

How can you really know the world around you is real if you're doing your best -not- to know?

So you go about a mortal life, all scared of your own end, because if you die, the universe ceases to be. But you don't want that... you don't want to die; you just don't want to be alone.

You'll never admit you're God, you don't even want to know you are!

But you can't deny it forever, can you, Oh Creator?

As we know, back in the Roman days the only people who were "crusified" were the theifs, crooks, murderers and people who broke the law... now regardless of what 'breaking the law' meant to the Romans at that time, and trying to understand the true meaning of the word "GOD", why would God choose to 'die' on a cross (or in other words, be crusified) in the same way thieves and murderers were killed???

This has been bothering me for a long time, so I hope I'll get some serious answers.

How do you know heaven don't exist?

Maybe dead people can't tell you because they are not allowed to come back to this life after death.

There could be dead people right now celebrating with God, and you are here on Earth wasting time.

I think that heaven exist until someone prove to me otherwise. That means I should leave this world right now, and go up there.

You may be surprised what may happen to you after you die. Because as of right now you absolutely don't know what happens to you after you die.
