It may not be too long before science will allow people to choose these types of traits for their babies. Pretty much every inheritable trait could be tuned according to the parent preferences. Would you take advantage of this and choose the traits or would you leave up it to nature? Do you think this would be an ethical application of sciencce according to your personal belief system?

I figure since so many people here think Halloween is satanic they must make a big deal of it in Hell. Personally I think they give out really crappy candy, like those stale hard jelly orange slices my grandmother always gave me, or maybe that nasty black licorice mix. What do you think?

What does it mean to be Christian? Is Christianity offered to everyone or is it offered to only exclusive group of people?

As it is written in Matthew 11:19:
The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Look at him! A glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!'


Similarly, do you think that if Jesus came today and hung out with the rebels and sinners in the world, eating and drinking alcohol with them, that many “Christians” would judge and condemn Him, mistaking Him as a “sinner” and a “blasphemer”?

experienced the love of God...where you can feel him with you and being with you and assuring you that your not alone?When you cry out to God to pour down on you and just say take over all of me....Where all you can do is cry bc of how good he is and know that he will never leave you nor forsake you. thats what i love about God. hes always there...even in the darkest times hes there he forgives you for what youve done and takes you like nothing ever happened...God is SO merciful!! I love him so much. He's AWESOME!

In the book of Jude the angel Michael does not rebuke Satan he says the Lord rebuke thee. He could not rebuke Satan and had to call upon God.

Jude 1:9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

In Matthew where Jesus is tempted He rebukes Satan Himself. He tells him to leave basically without calling upon anyone.

Matthew 4:10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

If Jesus and Michael are the same being why could Jesus rebuke Satan and Michael couldn't?

I have just been listening to a 1 hour long sermon by a Christian named Paul Washer. I was very impressed and sobered by his message but what i want to know is this,,,

Is he really genuine in his sermons? What criticism has he gone under.
Im asking this because he sounds too good to be true,,
(in a good way) and also because I have been dissapointed by too many false prophets etc. Well im not sure if i can call them false but most of them seem more fake than others, like Creflo A Dollar,Joyce Meyers,T.D Jakes, Joel Osteen.
The reason I say this is because all of these guys are absurdly rich. They live lavish lives and they buy the kind of clothes, jewelrry cars and houses most of their followers will bever have. How can such people preach honstly to us. And how can we as followers listen to their sermons without being distracted by the wealth and celebrity status they have.??!!!!!

The church as the Body of Christ is absolutely a matter of life. The church as the Body of Christ is not a doctrine; it is of life. A man cannot become a part of the Body of Christ just by understanding it. He becomes a part of the Body of Christ through regeneration. This is absolutely a matter of life; it has nothing to do with knowledge or doctrine. As Christians we need very much to see the Body of Christ. But the only way we can see the Body of Christ is by God's revelation. We cannot understand the Body of Christ with our mind. Even if we have all the knowledge there is about the Body of Christ, we still may not have seen the Body of Christ or touched the reality of the Body. Only those who have received revelation from God will see the Body of Christ, and only they will enter the reality of the Body.

I've heard people in my family and people I work with say, "God would want me to be happy". What in the history of the world has happened to lead them to this belief. Do you think God wants you to be happy? I think He just wants be to fulfill my role.

I am translating the article into English, and I need the exact quote of the piece of September 7, where she says about four winds held by four angels until seven last plagues poured. And another one - it may follow this excerpt - that one by one the trumpets will sound and one by one the plagues will pour.
If you have this book, please, help me!
