"in the event that they %. up snakes or drink any poison, they won't be harmed: they'll place their palms on sick human beings, and those will get well.' "Believers will take delivery of the potential to accomplish miracles" The Believers that Christ is talking approximately are people who've taken up the bypass to stay with in his footsteps - not many Christians have given up all they could stick to in his footsteps. Many carry forth his teachings yet at the instant are not waiting to bypass away each and every thing at the back of. It takes an clever individual to hold that burden. Christ did not say to bypass out and %. up a snake or drink poison, yet, if upon amassing timber, or in shuttle, they could take place to be bit. The chew does not harm the genuine Believer. Christ did not say to drink a tumbler of poison and you does not be harmed, yet, if somebody have been to gave you a tumbler to do you harm and have been to drink, it won't harm you. The laying of palms, returned, it takes faith, a theory, "for any 2 that come jointly in my call, even though you ask would be performed!" Christ on no account carry out a miracle whilst He became on my own. It took 2 to have faith and it became performed. examine the recent testomony and you will examine what i'm asserting is genuine. no person individual has the potential. the potential comes from the theory of the different that he can and that's finished. We have faith, yet, we lack the religion, for Christ mentioned that, "If we had the the religion, even a small as a mustard seed. shall we are saying to that mountain upward thrust up an bypass away and it will pass." that's an outstanding component that we don't, because of the fact even without it, we can pass mountains, or lay them to waste. you're able to have heard mentioned that we purely use 10% of our strategies potential. are you able to think of, with guy the way he's, if we've been able to making use of the different ninety%! we've destroyed the international a protracted time in the past. we are too grasping to own one in all those potential! ~ Your undertaking became taken up, yet, are you worth to choose it?

What? I don't have kids.
By the way, my parents never taught me to believe in the tooth fairy or Santa Claus. And I never did believe in either one.
My Christianity is not a pretense, thank you.

Would you rather I raise them to be skeptical and paranoid of religious people, to be hateful of anything they do not understand?
I will raise my children with the beliefs of the Bible, and in a loving community. I will try to keep them away from drugs, and immoral people. I will restrict their Internet usage and what they see on TV. I will punish (ie a slap to the wrist or the bottem) them when they disobey.
I will raise them to appreciate science and God. Once they are eighteen and ready to embark life on their own, then I will respect their right to believe in whatever they wish as long as it does not cause them physical harm.

Yes we ACTUALLY do. That is why the apostles died for their faith and why Christians throughout the centuries have been martyred for their faith. Once you do have faith, God is able to answer your prayers and even do miracles! So the reason why God is not real to you is because you have no faith.
Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the crown of life. -Revelation 2:10

If I could use religion to control my kids I'd be the biggest Bible-thumping evangelist out there.

I agree. Religion is Santa Claus for crowd control.

Jesus is like "Santa Claus" for adults. Silly elvish-Christians.

I know that they do it, but the only thing to do to stop them is call CPS and report emotional abuse.
