Could it be that Lucifer, Satan, the devil...whatever you want to call him, was the 666th thing created? So the mark of the beast would mean we follow him...the 666th thing created?

(or 616th thing created for those who go with that)

What takes place after the rapture.
Some believe that we will be raptured as Christians and go to heaven and stay there in our mansion worshipping God and being reunited with our loved ones, walking on streets of Gold and living in bliss for eternity with God.
If you have this concept please provide scriptural verses to back up this kind of teaching you have received.

Others believe that our eternal home is not heaven but the new earth in the New Jerusalem, which is not heaven as many think.

For those who delve a bit deeper please share more with regard to the major events that take place After the Rapture of the Church as the Bride of Christ.

Events that take place
- In the Heavens
-On the earth
-Under the earth

Please use whatever resources that are available to you and as many scriptural references to support what you are sharing.
Hopefully this question will also afford us an opportunity to dig a little deeper too
Ty for taking the time

Why does the Catholic Church Teach that the story of Adam and Eve is just fiction and never really happened. Without Original Sin, how can we be sinners? Why would we need Jesus, It doesn't even make any sense.

Let me ask you Catholics, how does it feel to attend a Church that claims they are Christian, Yet calls God and God's word a lie? Can you really call yourself Christian attending a place that calls God's word a lie? How is this not blasphemy, the word you like to use so often?

Why does the Catholic Church continue to add and delete from the Bible. Oh, that's right, they think they are infalable!!!

Why do catholics make an Idol by putting a statue of Jesus on the Cross? Don't they even know the very basics, that Jesus Died and Rose again. Why don't they ever take Him off the Cross?

Why do they put crusifixes all over their houses, over their beds like they are warding off evil spirits. Does anyone find them acting in superstition?

Jesus is in heaven, at the right hand of the Father. Why don't you open up your Bibles, take Jesus off the cross, and start claiming the fact that He has risen from the dead.

Why do you need the Statues and Idols? Perhaps you are focusing on the Physical things, and not the Spiritual?

Stop breaking the second commandment! Actually, your organization deleted it from the Bible, but go find a real Bible and read the second commandment! No Idols!!

"Anything other than a physical ailment, that distortes the mind from it's natural ability is sin."

This was a response to a question regarding Marijuana. Now there are a variety of medicine that affect and distort the mind from its natural ability. I'll list a couple.

Morphine - pain killer.
Codeine - pain killer
Benylin - cough remedy
Anti-histamines - allergy treatments
Various drugs for chemotherapy induce forgetfulness.

Does this mean then that Christians should never take drugs to cure an ailment? The above comment suggests that only ailments not cures that modify the functioning of the mind are acceptable.

What about drugs for mental illness? All of them alter the mind.

Anybody watch last night? When he wanted to talk to the accident victim, I thought yes. But by his comments at the end, I thought no. What was your take?

And do you think he should have left the paralyzed guy alone about his beliefs, if they gave him comfort as he was dying?

Discuss...

Jude 1:14 & 15 quotes froms & names the "Book of Enoch", which has been left out of the Bible. If the Book of Enoch is quoted from, surely it is true Biblical Scripture as well?
Go on if you dare, I bet no Christian here can look up Jude Ch1v14 & v15, then Goggle the "Book of Enoch" which then proves that the Book of Enoch has been left out of the King James Bible!
And it is a Prophesy no less! What of the other Prophesies in Enoch? Did God change his mind about these?

Jude 1:14 "And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesised of these saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten-thousands of his Saints"

Enoch Ch.1.v.9" And behold! He cometh with ten thousands of his Saints
To execute judgement upon all,
And to destroy all the ungodly:
And to convict all flesh
Of all the works of their ungodliness which they have ungodly committed,
And of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him."

(Copies of The Book of Enoch can be found online)

I attend a Seventh-day Adventist church in my City. The city is one of the largest urban cities in America. The need to offer Community Service is great.

Our Church has an open food pantry ministry. Their are several throughout the city. We serve over 100 people weekly and we also host a special Christmas dinner for residents every year. This is a very large event. The church also gives out toys, clothes, and Fruit baskets during the holidays.

What are ways your church is actively involve in meeting some of the needs in your community.

Open to new ideas and approaches to reaching the community with the message of Christ love.

Why do you keep saying this?
I have found hundreds of contradictions in the Bible.
I have even posted them on here but you keep saying there is none. WHY?

Why do you keep hounding Atheists about going to Hell and this is something else you say you don't do, but you do?

Did someone drop you on your head when you were a baby, or what?

I mean this in the nicest way possible no offence intended.
Please do not take offence as I have a problem and it is called sarcasim and it is a family trait.
So sorry for the ridicule.Please accept my deepest sincerist apolagies.

Can the effects of her bad prayer be reversed?
5 months ago my friend prayed to be biologically 24. (She didn't want to be that old- sometimes she feels forced to pray for things she doesn't want. She's crazy) The prayer came true- since then- she began to lose of the elastic of her skin and 2 months later- her arms and legs got flabby. So far she has lost a considerable amount of the elastic of her skin(on her face) already and she's alarmed. Now she thinks she's aging fast. If she prays to be biologically 16 or 18- (or if she prays to be younger again) will her prayer come true? And what can she do to stop herself from praying for things she doesn't want in the future? She wants to pray only for the things she wants- like to be younger again. She doesn't pray to anything in particular- she just prays. And her prayer always seems to come true. She used to believe in the God in the Bible but not anymore. We believe in another mysterious supernatural power.

and neanderthal man was very dumb, he ate raw meat, was hairy all over, had no language(could only grunt).
According to the bible, then, if adam and eve were the first humans, then they were either Neanderthal man, or before that, which would be even more savage.
