Be strong and of good courage!...remember, Jesus warned us of being hated just because of being a believer in christ!..(Matt. 10:22)....I'm sure you see that devils hate on this site toward religion especially toward christians!....must be doing something right!.....God Bless And keep strong in the Lord!

I'm always up for learning a bit more about the bible. I'm sorry people put you down so much. It isn't right. I myself am a Catholic and there are quite a few Catholic bashers where I live, so I suppose I know somewhat how you feel. I would love to learn more about your Pentecostal faith. Much of the animosity between faiths is due to ignorance or a lack of understand on the behalf of one or more parties. I'd love to to discuss your beliefs with you sometime. I should be on messenger later tonight if you'd like to talk. My e-mail address is big_dog832001@yahoo.com. If you don't want to discuss anything with me, then I won't be offended. I just always enjoy learning something new.

what is christ birthday?? how can a woman becomes pregnant and claims she's still a virgin? has anyone been to hell and come back?? if not, how do u know if hell exist? who is/are the authors of the bible?? who can prove that what is wriiten is 100% true? did the bible say that if i dont believe in jesus, i'll go to hell?? did the bible teach my christian friends to cheat and lie??
i do believe all orthodox religions stand for good causes, as long as you're true to urself and doesn't do anything bad..everyone has the right to believe in what he want to believe, there is no way i can stand pple trying to convert others to their own religion, during the course, humiliating others religion....
what i can't really stand is that pple from the church tends to do do things away from what they preached. they can go on and on for so long, show me the adaptation from the bible, blah blah blah, lah lah lah...if they really learn from the bible, there wont be so many ill-doings committed by them right?? all the bribing scandals, all the sex before marriages, all the murders, all the thefts and so on and so forth.... what i'm really trying to say is that, this happens in all races and religions, so stop trying to convert pple into ur own

I love reading the Bible. The more i read, the more i learn. God speaks to my heart, through His word. Don"t worry about what people say about you. The Bible tells us that if we live for Jesus, we will be prosecuted. That should make us want to witness for Him, even more. The Bible is the true inspired word of God. It is the truth from the beginning, to the end.

Well not to put you down but do you believe that we should change the law so that anyone who works on the Sabbath should be put to death? See it strikes me that people like you claim to believe the Bible 100% yet choose to ignore parts of it.

You can learn a lot about it from the resources on my site @ http://web.express56.com/~bromar/
As to your trials in faith...Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. Matthew 5:11-12
My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. James 1:2-4
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. 1 Peter 1:3-9

No, I don't want to learn about the bible. Good for you if you're happy with your beliefs, but as an atheist and a Satanist, I do not share them. Don't shove your beliefs down my throat, and develop logic thinking.

I used to get put down after I accepted Jesus. It takes time, but it will settle down. Also consoder that all of the Apostles were not only called names and put down, they were also stoned, imprisoned and killed for their faith. You're in good company.
