"It is therefore the duty of the people of God [the Saints] to keep the Sabbath [Saturday]. For he who has entered into his rest also has ceased from his own works, as God did from His" (Hebrews 4:9,10, Lamsa).

Concerning ETERNITY: "From one Sabbath [Saturday] to another, all manknd shall come to worship befor.e me, says the Lord" (isaiah 66:23)

Why Are Bible Teachers and Preachers Avoiding Certain Topics?

Why are they avoiding topics like hell, the lake of fire, the great white throne judgement and so many others that churchgoers should know very well?

Are they trying not to offend people?

Maybe they say: "If we offend our congregation, they will leave our church and thus reduce the offering."

What's the real story?

Anyone?

My aunt and uncle (and his wife) fell out as he wanted to have half her house (which she purchased solely) if she died before her. She refused, they stopped speaking save for a letter his wife wrote to my aunt saying how selfish she was etc. Now my aunt is compiling and making notes on a letter she wants to reply with. But as her spelling etc is bad and she cannot use a computer she wants me to type the letter for her from her handwritten notes or indeed from an audio machine.

But can me typing the letter affect my Karma in anyway?

Thanks for your help.

I am not a Catholic or even a Christian although at one point I was a Catholic and at other points I attended the Church of England.

I often see people claim that the Catholic Church is unbliblical what I don't understand is, how an unbliblical Church managed to cannonize the Bible?

If there is any answer other than calling the catchechism(sp) unbliblical can someone please explain what is so false about the Catholic Church from a Christian point of view?

I only ask because when I "converted" from Catholicism to C of E years ago it was because I was actively attending a C of E Church for years opposed to a Catholic one. I didn't do it to save my soul/because I thought Catholicism is wrong.
-P.S. I have not been either for many years, I just can't understand these statements.

It was announced that former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, converted to the Catholic faith during a Mass held on Friday night at a chapel in London, the Catholic Church said in a statement released after the fact.

"It can be confirmed that Tony Blair has been received into full communion with the Catholic church by Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor," the head of the church in England and Wales, the church said in the same statement.

Blair, who had long been a member of the Church of England, converted to Catholicism. Does this shock you? Please you? Upset you? How does it affect you?

I was making this family tree yesterday of ancient families and stumbled upon a remarkable discovery. I've read some documents that said Darda of the bible was son of Zarah (Zerah) and Electra. Coincidentally, the greek mythology says Darda Dardanus, ancestor of the kings of Troy, is son of a so called Electra, only this time, instead of Zerah, it was Zeus who fathered this son.
So I just want to know this: Is there someone in the bible that goes by the name Electra? I'd appreciate an answer.

It is often quoted her by religious people on this site which suggests that they love it.
Are they only religious because of fear?
Have they no real and fearlessness reason for believing in God? Are they only believers because of the carrot of afterlife?

I thought it was because Jesus was very good to people and preached GOD to make one a loving humanbeing.
How good are you as a Jesus follower? Have you forgotten what Christ is all about? Why do you support killings and bombing of fellow humanbeings? Does this form of support for war makes one a true christain/evangelican? Or is this Jesus/church/evangelican thing just a brainwash? Why do Jesus followers invent/invest in weaponary?

Remember what Jesus said to his followers after he was resurrected !

Matthew 28:18,19, And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth. 19Going therefore, teach ye all nations; baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. 20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.
Revelation 1:5, . . . Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth.
Revelation 2:26-27, To anyone who proves victorious, and keeps working for me until the end, I will give the authority over the nations 27which I myself have been given by my Father, to rule them with an iron sceptre and shatter them like so many pots. (NJB)
Revelation 3:21, He that overcometh, I will give to him to sit down with me in my throne, as I also overcame, and sat down with my Father in his throne. (ASV)

You know some people say,
when you die you go to heven or hell.
And
When your dead that's it.
And
when you die you become a ghost...

How can the first and third on be true..?

i mean. when a flower dies, does it go to heven or hell depending on how many bee's pollenated it. Or become a ghost?

When everything dies.. does it go to heven?
