Why should a widely held belief without evidence be any more respected than an individual's beliefs without evidence?

Then they send them to worldly counsellors and worldly shelters? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AiK0tuxVL7hqRMB1Z2s2YsTd7BR.;_ylv=3?qid=20070928193456AASVzLG
I do not understand this. I was abused, I was sent to the YWCA by my pastor.....there I was surrounded by gay people and given all kinds of crazy advice............wouldn't it be better to pray for people and ask God if he joined this marraige together than to just say "Oh if you are abused go to a shelter?" You are sending Christians who want Christian guidance to the world because you don't know what to say to them? You assume all marraiges with a piece of paper are from God and that the scriptures about divorce apply to those people??? How do you know that? who knows the mind of God and who has been his counsellor? Would you have chastized Jesus for picking wheat on Sunday like the Pharisees did? He WAS breaking the LAW you know!!! If you have not lived an abusive situation I suggest silence.

It seems to freak people out in a negative respect when I tell them that they are a god, and that the path to enlightenment it truly through them. Especially when I quote the Law of Thelema, they really get upset. Why?

What do we look for in a true Christian church?


I have recently read some very bad experiences from new believers.

What would you look for in a church body that you can back up with scriptural references?

What are the marks of a true Christian church?
What does their doctrine look like and what do their services and activities include?

Can you describe your church and biblically support why you are attending your particular denomination of Christianity?

The USA is liberal and the manufacturing company for homosexuality and perversion, but they still believe in God in a real way. On the contrary, GB seems to be indifferent to a real move of God. The people live as if there is no God. They are very liberal in their way of thinking. Those who are church goers often attend the Anglican Church. Few are acutally Catholic, for which is a plus. There are full gospel churches branching up here and there, but it still maintains its Godless mindset. Some of the greatest ministers that ever lived came from there, so it does not add up. People like Elton John, which is the same as our Rosie O'Donnell, are usually the norm. Witchcraft and earth worshipping is seen as normal. Why have this nation turn its back on God?

Luke 10

17The seventy-two returned with joy and said, "Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name."

18He replied, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 19I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. 20However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven."



If Jesus said, He SAW satan fall like lightning from heaven, He had to be with God before Creation.

It's Truth like this revealed to us that makes us believe.

I have been casually browsing around this category, and within meaningful questions, I notice many disobliging answers from blatant athiest users, who typically respond with something along the lines of "God is made up," "There is no God, "All imaginary."

Not to be rude, but why do you impose such worthless and unhelpful comments? Do you find faith as some atrocious act, in which you must openly respond to profess that you are correct? It makes me laugh at your hypocrisy, and you know who you are.

Many religious folks ask dilligent questions, and the least to their liking is to recieve a comment from an athiest blasting their beliefs. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against athiests, but on here, please put past your silly callow remarks, or have nothing to say at all.

Thanks.

I was curious....some say it was John the Baptist, but when the Disciples asked Jesus in Matthew 17:11 about Elijah, Jesus said "Elijah truly shall first come and restore all things.But I say unto you, that Elijah is come already, and they knew him not but have done unto him whatsoever they listed.
If Elijah had already come, and they did not know him, and he truly shall come, what is it that he is to restore, and what are the things that were going to fall that had to be restored?

Whether you like it or not Christianity is a religion, a religion that follows and worships Christ. If you wish to separate yourself from Christianity then IMO you are not worshipping in truth. This "RELIGION" that you speak of was began by Christ with himself as the cornerstone and the 12 disciples as the foundation. Jesus used construction terminology because that is exactly His intent which was to build a Church. This Church was endowed with all that is necessary for it to endure until the end of the age without the gates of hell ever prevailing against it. This Church is the pillar and the ground of the truth and the protector of that truth for all times against the false teachers to come from within and without stealing the faithful like ravaging wolves. When I encounter people who blame Christ's Church for restricting the faithful from private interpretation, I simply ask them to look in a mirror to find the true blame.

I had my copy of "Warriors Don't Cry" signed by it's author Melba Beals. She was one of the "Little Rock Nine", a group of Black students who were accepted into Little Rock Arkansas during the school integration during 1957. She endured so much pain and manevolence as she was harrased by white students,parents,police men(even the govenor of Arkansas sent the nation guard to keep them from entering the school.When I met Melba, she left me speechless and I was just in awe of all that she and her companions had done to change the world.Has anyone here grown from such a difficult experience and ultimately triumphed( brought you closer in your relationship with God and your true character)
