Religion & Spirituality - 6 November 2007

Ok ~ I usually have my permanant Altar in my bedroom.
I shifted it to the lounge because hubby goes to sleep early and i like to do my rituals at night when the kids are in bed. I was missing out on a lot of ritual work because of this. Now something does not seem right~ its hard to explain, like a feeling of not holding the power within my circle or not making a connection? Also my Quarter candles keep going out, yet there is no breeze.
I do have an Altar outside but sometimes its not possible to work there. And i do like to keep a permanant altar set up.
There are no other places in the house i can use.
So the question is do i shift it back to my room? Or Is there another solution?
Any advice apreciated!
Blessed Be!
Ariel

that the rest of the believers in (any) god cannot agree with?

Is it simply the names of the key players?

Many do find it difficult to be bold in spreading the gospel, and Bible tracts do help; even if you just leave one for another to find. You never know when it comes to someone just when they need to hear The Word. Do you use them?

some people keep saying that the world is going to end on dec. 21st 2012....But My theory is that when GOD is ready for us then he is ready for us to come home and live with him!

Like I said, I'm interested in hearing what you have to say, so don't worry about getting reported because I disagree with you. I'm just interested in how you feel and why.

anthony B answered that god took everyone to heaven individually on this question....http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=ArIb_sD7F0hdo1gTWPUjdb7d7BR.;_ylv=3?qid=20071106054957AAUjfB8

and the world clock shows a person dying just about every second, so every 3 seconds god has to carry a devout chrisitan to heaven, he's WAY too busy to perform miracles...http://www.poodwaddle.com/worldclock.swf

First of all I do write in mine. I bought a large one with normal paper instead of the flimsey paper so I could write in it. When I come across a verse that speaks to me, I write in the margin why it means something to me on that day and it's interesting to run into it again a couple of month's later.

However, last Sunday our Pastor was talking about holiness of the Bible and how we should respect God's word. He went on to say that you wouldn't leave a cup of coffee on your Bible or use it temporarily to hold open a window (true, I would not do those things) or you wouldn't scribble notes in it.

I don't think he would condemn people who do write their thoughts in their Bible, but it set me to wondering. I know a lot of people highlight passages and write cross-references in their Bibles, but do you feel it's wrong to write your thoughts in the margins?

Do you write your thoughts in your Bible? If you feel it is wrong to do this, please say so, I am interested. Thanks.

Once upon a time two explorers came upon a clearing in the jungle. In the clearing were growing many flowers and many weeds. One explorer says, "Some gardener must tend this plot." The other disagrees, "There is no gardener." So they pitch their tents and set a watch. No gardener is ever seen. "But perhaps he is an invisible gardener." So they set up a barbed-wire fence. They electrify it. They patrol with bloodhounds. (For they remember how H. G. Well's The Invisible Man could be both smelt and touched though he could not be seen.) But no shrieks ever suggest that some intruder has received a shock. No movements of the wire ever betray an invisible climber. The bloodhounds never give cry. Yet still the Believer is not convinced. "But there is a gardener, invisible, intangible, insensible, to electric shocks, a gardener who has no scent and makes no sound, a gardener who comes secretly to look after the garden which he loves." At last the Sceptic despairs, "But what remains of your original assertion? Just how does what you call an invisible, intangible, eternally elusive gardener differ from an imaginary gardener or even from no gardener at all?"

Matthew 16:18
"I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it.

Church = ekklesia, special gathering or assembly.

The actual word church is derived from kyridakon - which points back to the word lord.

In essence the church has become our new lord, a power structure. So the "church" today is not very scriptual in this respect and does LORD over us doesn't it?

What are your thoughts?

I've read alot of things on here that make sense and I'm starting to question my beliefs...it all makes sense, evolution, the big bang theory, science....

I was brought up Christian, had religion shoved down my throat as a teenager, went through a 'rebellious state' and studied wicca and paganism..and now...im starting to really question Christianity.....

How did you deal with it (when you were questioning if you even did)

Sorry, I'm sure this sounds silly, but I was just cerious after reading an answer from a Muslim;

"I am a Muslim and i want to comment about this.

The punishment for rebellion according the Romans was Crucifixion and for blasphemy its being stoned.

So this proves that Jesus (upon him peace) wasn't changing the religion of the Jews he was abrogating certain things and clearing others. In Islam Jesus (upon him peace) is a Prophet and we believe that it was those after him who changed and separated it from Judaism."

As mentioned above, we are all sinners and based on what the bible says as long as we believe in Jesus we shall never perish. That was the point of Jesus dying - he paid the ultimate sacrifice for sin. As far as homosexuals are concerned the bible clearly condemns it but the bible talks mostly about LUST. I feel homosexuality where you have sex with anyone without love can be a perversion but why doesn't the bible speak of a loving faithful monogamous relationship? The bible does not mention anything about this. In fact when Jesus was preaching he gave a new law - to love one another. Do you feel that that God sends all homosexuals to hell? We all should repent our ways but what if you are in fellowship with Christ but don't repent everything - or slip here and there - you still go to hell? I thought the whole point of Jesus dying was for our sins and we should recognize that and follow him. Opinions on the above please -
