Religion & Spirituality - 1 November 2007

There are many contradictions of Paul's teachings and Christ's (links below).

I think that Saul (Paul) made up the whole conversion story. Think about it...Saul HATED Christians, they're whole theology system, etc...and I think that the best way to stop something you don't like is to teach the opposite while claiming it to be true.

I think Saul because a teacher to teach false doctrine to stop the truth of the church.

Why doesn't God come to each and every one of us and tell us the Truth? Instead I'm offered a book written by mere men. How can I be expected to believe what another mortal tells me about the divine? If my eternal soul is in the balance, I want the Truth straight from the source. not by playing telephone.

Please explain why these words are not applicable, in your case.

Do you believe these words are often accurate in describing OTHERS of your faith/non-faith tradition?

some say jesus = God...but if that was so then wouldn't the trinity be a 2ity? Muslims say the holy Ghost is the Archangel Gabriel...How does the trinity work? was the holy ghost begotten by God? if so when? is not a trinity having a god before God?? By that I mean how can one fully acknowledge God if there's 2 other entities they have to acknowledge? Please, no bible quotes without leaving a commentary explaining it.

My friends had very few trick or treaters this year ... and they were wondering if Mormons go trick or treating because they live in an area that is heavily populated by Mormons.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Is god real? I've been thinking, I believe he is real but then I don't also. Why would god let something like 9/11 happen? All those innocent people? Why would he let some guy rape a little girl? I have a friend whos a big Pot Head and his dad is a Minister representing God. Is god real? y does he let all these things happen? is god made so people are afraid to commit crime?

..without Jesus, where will you go ? " is not scriptural and never can you find it in the Word of God.

Jesus came to promise us Life and Life more abundantly, Eternal life, immortality and life forevermore. Look through the scriptures, Jesus never says or tell people "if you die - you will go to heaven if you believed" BUT INSTEAD HE SAID, "IF YOU BELIEVES IN ME YOU SHALL NEVER DIE" Jesus came to give us life without dying and it's found all over in His teaching but your religious mind have blinded you to see the Truth.

All men will lives eternally after death is not a question. But where will they spend eternity is! However , Jesus came to tell us that we can be once again be restored to a Life without death, just like Adam before the Fall. Even the Apostle Paul knew that and he wrote, in Roman 8:1-3..Read it for yourselves!
Paul tells us the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has set us free from the spirit of death and of sins.
Christian, DO YOU BELIEVES IT?

You knell to him yet his name has never been spoken!
There are no writings on him that show clear proof that he has ever existed. Where are the scrolls that we may read and learn about his being? Is his name only spoken by Islamist?
Does he believe in the taking of innocent lives? I have my doubts that he is a God or that he has ever existed.

are you really sure that Jesus was a god being and not an important prophet?

Jesus himself never indicated that he was a God. i dont see any reference in Scripture to Jesus being God.

I've heard that Jesus was proclaimed a god man when Constantine founded the catholic church and binding all the christian sects. put together the bible at the same time, choosing the texts that they wanted and formed one religion (that until then was prohibited to believe in)
So why with historical information are you sure that jesus was a god being? i think he was a man who spoke of love and peace.

Sometimes I forget that I'm surrounded by people who can't read without glasses. Many of them say they only need them to read, and as such these are the only times they wear them. I wonder how many details of daily life they miss. I'm sure they can see the wall but do they see the texture. Can they see the texture of life or does it just get blured into a solid.

To those of you on here who are bashing the atheists, pagans, agnostics, etc. tell me, if one of them were to come on here tomorrow and say they were a born again Christian, would you accept them?


Even after you've thrown every insult you could think of their way when they didn't believe?

The existence of Universe in and of itself is proof.
The existence of Life is proof.

The proof of the Creator is the creation just like the poem is proof of the poet. Just like a song is proof of the composer. Just like the sculpture is proof of a sculptor. Just like architecture is proof of the architect.

How then can any rational person conclude that there is no God.

It included all of what is now Turkey,most of Iraq,all of Syria and Lebanon and Palestine. And the northern part of Iran. Adam,NOah - all that - Zarathustra - everybody appears to have been in the Kingdom of Armenia. Why do christians and jews and muslims think these people were jews from Egypt or what do they think? Be serious; it's an interesting topic.

I have this book on Kabballa and it's got two chapters on Metatron who is sort of god,jr to jews. But I asked an orthodox jew about it and he denied ever having heard of any Metatron. So what's the story here?

Brigham Young wrote, "Now here it, O inhabitants of the earth, Jew and Gentile, Saint and sinner! When our father Adam came into the garden of Eden, he came into it with celestial body, and brought Eve, one of his wives, with him. He helped to make organized the world. He is Michael, the archangel, the Ancient of Days! about whom holy men have written and spoken -- He is our Father and our God, and the only god with whom we have to do." (Journal of Discourses, Vol. 1, pp. 50-51)

Many Mormons will say they do not teach this anymore. But if they believe their leaders are "prophets" of God then don't you think they erred in this area? Some Mormons will say Brigham Young is just misunderstood by many when he wrote this. But how come the Mormon leaders of his time are saying otherwise? Are Mormon prophets in reality false prohets?
