Christians, can you share some false teachings that you believe they enemy has infiltrated the Church with in the hour in which we live.

2 Tim 4:3
A time will come when people will not listen to accurate teachings. Instead, they will follow their own desires and surround themselves with teachers who tell them what they want to hear.

Yesterday I posted a question and was bombarded by angry people, that were literally putting me down. I don't feel my question was putting anyone or any religious belief down, but I was called "simple" "hostile" "angry" "non believer".......I simply asked why (SOME , NOT ALL) People that say they are of "God" are so quick to put down people that don't believe as they do. Isn't that exactly opposite of what they are supposed to be?

This question stemmed from an answer I saw posted about the Dalai Lama, someone was inquiring about him, and a guy claiming to be "Called by God" said 'he is deceiving us and leading us on a fast path to hell'....the Dalai Lama! ?

Please, I don't want to hear how awful you think I am, or how I should believe your beliefs. I just want to know why it is okay for the people that preach "God's word", (God, who is kind, just, and non judgmental), to be so brutally cruel in their responses to people? Do they have a license from God to persecute?

Something to think about. Please do not say because he
died, that is why he cannot receive his presents.)

OK. We see that we have many things in today's world.
That was not here 2000 years ago. So who are we to
say, that certain ways of life were not possible. Like the
Egyptians and heart surgery, Shoalin Monks, from China,
who could fly. Magic in Europe, during the Dark Ages.
And Native Americans and metamorphic powers,
from man to animal. To Religion and Spirituality
people. Does the fact that we have so much technology, it
does something to the human psyche ? Does it causes
us to lose touch with our spirituality ? Good question.
Given the fact that many people, in a modern day world,
have less connections with there own inner strength,
and supernatural powers. From a Divine Being of course.
And in some cases evil forces. Miracles do exist.
But now we have given way, to idolatry. And pride.
Have we deprived ourselves, or the full essence of
spirituality ? Best answer wins. ***

whenever i can't find my car keys, i sometimes get to the point of frustration that i'll say something like, "i know they didn't grow legs walk out of here (no evolution pun intended)." the point of my question is this. if you assume that a body could just disappear, i.e. ascencion into heaven, and that be your explanation for why there is no physical evidence of jesus, why wouldn't anyone who is missing their car keys come to the same conclusion? why do we persist on finding our car keys? why don't we just accept that they disappeared and are not meant to be found again until god wants us to find them? do you suppose disappearance by means of supernatural events should not be considered valid reason for not being able to find something?

I'm not saying that most Christians are evil or anything but why does it seem like most people claim to be religious but never actually follow the teachings of their supposed religion? I think you see this best in politics, such as people who always talk about Jesus but then support war or torture or not helping the poor? Surely people who truly follow the teachings of Christ having to be wondering what so many Christians are talking about.

I was asleep quite soundly, but twice while i was asleep, i awoke with a start to a "cold breeze" sensation all over my body. It felt as if a door had opened an a huge draft blew over me. Problem is, i was covered by a blanket.

Both times, i was extremely startled when i woke up. It wasn't uncomfortable as it was much more startling.

What does this mean? Are there any spiritual implications?

...as far as any observable evidence in the "real world" (i.e. the world OUTSIDE of their illusory concatenations) is concerned, they're wrong? This doesn't necessarily invalidate their beliefs (the contradictions in their scripture does a good enough job without any help), but don't any of them accept the fact that there's nothing objective to substantiate their claim even a tiny bit?

Is this so hard to swallow?

The Earth was water baptized (Noah's time)
Christians are water baptized
The Earth is purged with fire (in the end)
Christians are baptized with the Holy Spirit and FIRE.
God creates a new Earth
For Christians the old man passed away, they are a new creation.

The same water that flooded and cleansed the Earth brought new life to Noah and his family.
The same fire that purges and cleanses the Earth in the end is the same fire that purifies the Church for the return of Jesus.

Tell me what you think and thanks for your time.

Angels can come in many different forms. I sometimes think people who're there to help me through different parts of my life are angels sent down to me. Whenever either a loved one or myself has narrowly escaped death or great harm, I think of it as our guardian angel working overtime to protect us.

Do you believe in angels? How have angels existed in YOUR life?

Is there a verse in the bible that says you DO NOT have to be baptized to go to heaven, or is there a verse that says YOU HAVE to be baptized to go to heaven. My dad is baptist and says you go to hell if you havent been baptized. I've been saved but not baptized, i feel it is right to be baptized, but the bible says it is by grace alone you are saved, wouldnt you call baptism kind of a work? does anyone else feel the way i feel? and about the verses..if you could help me out on that as well.

i've heard the explanation that the reason people don't live to be 1000 years old like people in the old testament did is because sin entered the world and infected mankind. first of all, this wouldn't explain why people continued to have lifespans of nearly 1000 years after adam and eve. secondly, i can't really find any specific verse which says that is the reason at all. didn't god explain exactly what his punishment to adam and eve would be? no where in this punishment did he ever say anything about shortening the lifespan of man to less than 100 years. it's one thing to take a verse out of context. it's an entirely different thing to just make stuff up.
