Religion & Spirituality - 29 December 2007

Well, my mom and dad are Christians, but me and my sister haven't been baptized yet. I believe in God and Jesus. I'm 14 and I haven't been baptized yet. Is this bad? I will get baptized for sure later on though.

Matt 5:18-20
18For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

19Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

20For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 5 (Whole Chapter)

How many time can they
Fill me with lies and I listen again
Twisting the truth and they're
Playing around with my head OK
The things they will do and
The things they will say
When they don't really understand
Tears fill my eyes when I
Hear all the cries
For the reason today

And they don't really know
Even what they're talking about
And I can't imagine
What empty heads can achieve

Matt:25:14-30:
"Again, it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his property to them. To one he gave five talents[a] of money, to another two talents, and to another one talent, each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey. The man who had received the five talents went at once and put his money to work and gained five more. So also, the one with the two talents gained two more. But the man who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master's money.

"After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. The man who had received the five talents brought the other five. 'Master,' he said, 'you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.'

"His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'

Here are the evidence of this setup.

1. Send Satan to Earth instead of the Moon. What happens if God send Satan in another galaxy instead, could Satan have travelled to earth on his own to do his duty for God? Religion is funny for sure.

2. God planted two trees instead of not planted any.

3. God did not created them with more intelligence to begin with. Dumb people do dumb things. That is certain to be the case for any creations. Example of dumb human beings - fighting terrorism by invading Iraq and Afganistan. What does that do even if you can take over or control those areas? Result is NOTHING because terrorism is created by religions and ideals. How can anyone fight end terrorism if they don't end religion or ideals or how to end ideals? You first attack superstitious belief system before you can win over terrorism.

Did God set These two people to fall? If not then why set up all these traps in this garden?

What if Adam and Eve never took the bait and never fell?

was a turning point for our Society.
Do you have a dream? a dream that is a "turning point" in your life?
Jesus had a dream. A dream in which we could walk in the freedom from our sins. A dream that would free us from the effects of sins of others as well.
In His dream, we are truly free from oppression. Not from others, but from the oppression that we allow to be handed down to us through our actions, consequences of our lives, bad decisions etc. A people who would rise up to be someone that God has set before them to be, to show the world it is possible to rise above every hindrance and bondage that we have succomb to.
What are your thoughts on this?
If you have read Dr. Kings' "I have a Dream" do you see the Jesus' teachings in it?

then he does not ever really die at all- his form of existance just changes, then Satan did not lie after all when he told Adam and Eve that they would NOT die. And what is the point of a ressurection if you never really die?

account that with this, comes birthing pains? In leaving, or "putting off the old man", there comes the discomfort of stepping out of what has become norm to you. We call it our "comfort zone", but in actuallity it is the process of the old man truly dying and the new man being born.
With this process, God is showing us who we will become through His forknowledge. He has us "put out into deeper water". The "birthing pains" comes in as we move through this transitional period from being who we were into who God has created us to be. There are mountains we'll face, battles we'll have to fight.... but the Birthing process is truly woth it. As God has said to me, The reward is always greater than the sacrifice....
to restate the question..... Do we/you realize this concept as part of God's Salvation.
Do you see this as what Jesus said" You must be born again"?

For the past couple of years, I considered one girl my closest friend - a sister in a lot of ways. She felt the same way. We shared all the time, talked all the time, and I felt like I had a real confidante that I could trust for the first time in years.

Over time, I noticed that all we talked about was her, and our friendship seemed to be based on me helping her through emotional issues only to be left in the cold when I needed someone. I decided to stop feeding into her demands for attention, and suddenly she had nothing to do with me. She still pretends that she cares via little fake emails or text messages, but she doesn't call me, and we haven't seen each other in months. It was all about her;there was no real reciprocity.This is hard to come to terms with. Now I find myself so hurt that I think about it daily,I feel very hurt.She is still on my facebook, but it bothers me to see her face. I don't know if I should delete her or not.How can I get over this and forget about her?

LUKE 16:22 "So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried."

Did they say these things just to make the poor feel good about themselves and not revolt?
