Salaam brothers and sisters,

For many months, I have been suffering from physical pain, and I daily pray to Allah SWT to heal me. But so far, nothing has happened. I spent so much time praying during the holy month of Ramadan, and yet, nothing has happened, and I still suffer in pain.
My Question is, why won't allah swt accept my dua and heal me? This situation is really getting to me, and has been giving me doubt about the exhistence of allah,
please help

Would you be willing to cross the fires of hell?
Break all the precepts?
What would you be willing to do to know the truth of life?

I'm taking this class on drugs, and the ch I'm reading is on hallucinogens, any way as I was reading the Ch, I thought of this question.

1. Would you rather beleive that after we die, we go infront of God, and go to either hell or heaven based on our doings?

2. Or would you rather beleive that after we die our souls live on and explor the universe, free of the physical limitations that bounds us to earth?

And WHY???????

He gives us our beloved mother Church so that it will lead us with the guidance of the Holy Spirit the right path towards the heavenly shore.

If Catholic Church is fundamentally flawed, then Christ must be lying as he already stated every clearly he will be with the Church till the end of time.

One should not claim church as a body of baptised believers, Catholic Church is not just a premise, it is a body of Christ's believers.

Its important for all the Christians to be united under one flock, remember that christ wants to gather all his sheeps into a single flock and not scattered them all over the places to let them find the right church that suit their needs.

Most of you who have studied Islam know of abrogation. For those of you who don’t- when Muhammad had a divine revelation from Allah and then later got one that would contradict the first, the first would be considered abrogated, or, in other words, declared null, and be replaced by the “better” revelation. As anyone who studies Islam also knows, the ninth chapter of the koran is the last chapter to be “revealed” (the koran is in order of size- not chronological order). The last revelations, which include “the Verse of the Sword,” teach Muslims to exterminate all infidels. So, since it teaches war it is clear all the early verses that taught peace are abrogated. And that means Islam is a religion of war, not peace, as so many Muslims would have us believe.

I shall list a few verses below, including The Verse of the Sword.

Both non-profit religions, Islam and European Catholicism, are authoritarian.

Should all Catholics, both women and men, 18 years and older be allowed to vote for the next Pope of Rome?

This is the year 2007 AD, not 2007 BC, isn't it? Rome has heard of the idea of western democracies, hasn't it?

Is it true that a California judge has ruled the Freemasons are a religion? I would be interested to know what you believe and teach that led him to that decision.

I have read that over the years powerful ,wealthy men have belonged to your religion/organization. George Bush, David Rockefeller, Reagan,Kissinger,the mafia founder Guiseppi Mazzini, the Morman founder Joseph Smith, some present Senators and many others.

What is it about your religion/organization that can draw this caliber of men?
Thank You-

He can't sleep at night, because the fundamentalists keep telling him "God is going to get you". And if God is everywhere, then He must be under his bed.

I have been walking in the indescribable Presence of God after I returned to the Garden and Kingdom of God after my salvation and subsequent spontaneous, involuntary Baptism of the Holy Spirit on March 13. Yet Jesus Christ says there will be times when we will seek Him and not find Him, times of drought. I have had a spiritual abundance of the Presence of God (Holy Spirit/Shechinah) since my Baptism, and see God present in everything I do and the entire world that I perceive.

Yet, I read someone on here who had the Presence leave them after 7 years and then they had to walk by faith. This would scare me, although I have faith in God, to not dwell in His Presence for the rest of my life.

After your Baptism and indwelling (enlightenment), has the Presence of God left you for any reason? When? If so, did it ever come back or did you ever recover it?

thanks
