This is has been one of the most humbling pleas of passion for Christ I have read in a long time. Your passion is not yours alone, for I too know the pain of the world and the joy of Christ and how he takes every bruise and heals it with his power and the love and peace that he gives that passes all understanding and how the comments made on here break the heart of one who finds God to be what life is and without him there was no life, just existence, and a poor existence at that. Stay strong and courageous in your faith and calling, sister of mine in the Lord! I'll be glad when I meet you in the resurrection - as we will be known as Christ knows us - and that is a hope worth living for and putting up with all the things people so misunderstandingly say here!

I think the same as you, but the bible does tell us of the splitting up of religions. God does tell us that what we know in our hearts will save us. We people must learn from teachers, So you must be a teacher to your brother. But he has to be willing to accept God. I am passionate about god also. I am also glad you do not judge people based on there religions. I am 7th day Adventist and follow the bible also and my life has been very good and i try to help others to be also. But we people can only do so much and then leave the rest to God.

"That God is one, and that there is a conjunction of charity and faith" (Soul and Body n. 20).
Also, "This only One and very Self is omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent. This also every Christian acknowledges from his doctrine and every gentile from his religion. In consequence, wherever he is, a man thinks that God is there and that he prays to God at hand; thinking and praying so, men cannot but think that God is everywhere, that is, omnipresent [in all places at all times]; likewise omniscient [all knowing] and omnipotent [all powerful]. Everyone praying to God, therefore, implores Him from the heart to lead him because He can lead him; thus he acknowledges the divine omnipresence, omniscience and omnipotence, doing so in turning his face to the Lord; thereupon the truth flows in from the Lord" (Divine Providence n. 157).
Also, "There are three essentials of the church: acknowledgment of the divine of the Lord, acknowledgment of the holiness of the Word [Bible], and the life which is called charity" (Divine Providence n. 259[3]).
Also, "Every man [or woman] can be saved, and those are saved who acknowledge God and live rightly" (Divine Providence n. 325).

Omgosh! You go girl! Stay in love with Christ, he is always going to be there for you! No matter what! He's the one person who will NEVER leave you. Just remember that in everything you do, to do God's will. That's a total problem for me! But remember John 3:16!!!! Omgosh! God's peace!!!!!!

Dear:Nicole 1Tm:2:1: I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
1Tm:2:2: For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
1Tm:2:3: For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
1Tm:2:4: Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
1Tm:2:5: For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
1Tm:2:6: Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. GOD BLESS AND KEEP THE FAITH

All we can do is pray for our loved ones and the rest of the world. God gave us all free will because he wants us to go to him willingly. I love God with all my heart and am happy you do as well.We will all one day have the answer,because we all will have to answer for ourselves eventually,praise God!

I agree with judy_r8...keep your preaching in the pulpit. The problem with religious bigots - they think they can ram it down everyone elses throats. We don't wanna know!
