Im researching him and he is a very great person if it is true. Now people think you either deny or accept him...well i haven't accepted him yet. On the other hand, I have not denied him. So let's say I die in the next hour and i die. Would Jesus say you denied me here's the gate to hell? or Come with me and i will show you the truth? Peace

Judith 8:7. And she was exceedingly beautiful, and her husband left her great riches, and very many servants, and large possessions of herds of oxen, and flocks of sheep.

Wow. That's pretty random. I thought I'd end up with a wise one. Like:....I don't know. Shakespearean stuff.

In other words, to make a big deal about them being granted “free will” when in actual fact they are being manipulated with fear…

so what do you belive happens when you die? i'm not trying to start anything ok.
i just think it is impossible for the human mind not to belive in an afterlife.
there is no way i can't even imagine that when i die i will have no thoughts and that will be the end of me(body,mind,soul, & heart).

So what happens when you die?

Did the people who were killed on 9/11 get a free pass to heaven since their lives were taken from them so tragically and they did not have a chance to repent of their sins? I know that a lot of the heroes of 9/11 risked their lives to save people. Did these same heroes also give up their souls for their courageous actions? If so, then perhaps the real tragedy of 9/11 is not how many lives were lost, but how many people who died then went to Hell when they may have gone to Heaven had they lived longer and had a chance to know Christ and repent. 10 points for the best response to these questions.

How do I go about doing this? What steps must I take? Are there any specific requirements?
I am just looking for some time alone with God, and maybe some time of fasting. Not looking for much social interaction at all.

I just want to know what makes you so curtained that God is real and the Jesus Christ existed. When i was 6 or so there wasn't anyone in the world that could tell me Santa Clause was not real. I believed with all my heart he was watching my every move so i was on my best behavior, hell i even swore i seen him in the sky on Christmas eve once. But then i found out the sad truth. What makes your belief in God different then my belief in Santa Clause as a child?

If God exists than he surely has all knowledge of past, present, and future because he is not bound by time. Therefore it would seem to be impossible to tell God a joke, because he would already have known the punchline even before you started talking, no?

Romans 3:11: there is none that understandeth , there is none that seeketh after God.
Hosea 10 :12: Sow to yourselfs in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the Lord, TILL he come and rain righteousness upon you.

acts 17:27.. that they should seek the Lord, if haply they might FEEL after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us.( this does not mean chanting on a bible) to me it means talking to him and asking for his spirit to draw to you, to know him in prayer. To feel for his spirit....not stick your eye's in a bible and read verses....

??????(can not remember verse) seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and ALL these things shall be givin to you.



what do these verses mean to you, and does this have something to do with why Jesus was crusified?

I have tried sooooo hard to be extraverted and social but the truth is that it's absolutely miserable. Church is torture, everyone wants to talk, shake hands, hug, get to know me and I just want to run as far away as I can. I treasure my solitude, my quiet life and distance but my church has this loud band and everyone is loud and annoying and kind of dumb....I don't mean to be hatefull, I'm just trying to be as truthful as I can. They encourage these small groups that meet in peoples homes and I attempted this and I about killed me, horrible experience. What does this make me? Am I a bad Christian? I

Why is being gay such a bad thing? God did put them on the earth in the first place.

I googled black holes because I never saw a picture of one before. So I went through 3 pages of pictures and they're all computer animated images.

So then I just went to google and typed in "you can't see black holes" and it's true! You can't!

http://spaceplace.nasa.gov/en/kids/blackhole/

"Even if a bright star is shining right next to a black hole, you cannot see the black hole."

So if you cannot see black holes, and just think they're there because there is no light in that area...how can you believe in them? Just because scientists have told you?

Isn't that the same as a religious person believing in something just because their preachers have told them?

I've never seen such blatant disrespect, ever. It's awful some of the things I read on here, especially when it comes to people searching for psychics. You get the people who don't believe in the supernatural, yet are completely fine to force their religions on you. Seriously, it's disgusting. If people feel the need to reach out in the ways of pyschics, let them.

These people have the capacity to put faith in something, yet cannot seem to accept that other people put their faith in something else, and treat them like scum.

I'm appalled, really. Does anyone else feel the same?

Torn from their families
Mothers go hungry
To feed their children
But children go hungry
There's so many big men
They're out making millions
When poverty's profits
Just blame the children
If there's a God in heaven
What's he waiting for?

...and it's all inevitalbe anyhow, why are these same Christians trying to stop Iran from getting nukes? After all, if God's really in control and everything is going to happen the way He plans it, then it's logically impossible for Iran to nuke Israel! Do these Christians think that fate can be cheated? And if it DID happen, would they say "Oops, guess God was wrong?" (I realise a lot of Christians DON'T believe this... this question is about those who DO!)

the Devil? I was watching Constantine today, and got to thinking, what if God was the "Devil", and he was the evil being? I mean, the Bible teaches against temptation, but couldn't God, in a sense, be a temptation? We want His love, and if we "sell our soul (go to church, worship him, surround our life around Him)" to Him, we will go to heaven to be with Him. What if it turns out that the Devil is who we were supposed to worship in the first place, and that he would bless us if went against temptation and jumped off the bandwagon, but professed our faith to such an unlikely being.

Any thoughts?
