I LOVE BEING A CHRISTIAN

Because prayer is ineffective in everything except helping to calm or strengthen the person praying, No. Prayer is hardly a lethal weapon.

No. You can pray for whatever you want to. The thing is, will Jesus/God act on it?
No matter how angry or upset we get with people, God is not our Holy hit man.
If you give him your situation, and ask him to help, especially if you were wronged, God steps in, in his time and does exacly what he said he would do: takes care of it. You don't have to go after anyone, or wish evil upon them, because God is upset when you are upset. He knows how you feel. And he promised that he would repay.
When he does, you will know it, You recognize that it was done for you, in answer to your prayer. Although some people don't realize immediately, they do eventually, and are often amazed at how resourceful and ingenious he can be.
I love being a Christian, too.
Hope I helped!

Illegal would imply some sort of governmental justice. And no, there are no laws that say you can't do this. (A long shot might be conspiracy to commit a crime?? But they would have to call Jesus as a witness...)
Anyway- Jesus doesn't have the power- God does. Read the bible and it will become clearer...
Did you know... Clement of Alexandria (ca. 150-215) believed that Jesus was God, "The living God that suffered and is worshipped"..."so that you might learn from a man how to be a God." Hmmmm

Just what exactly do, you consider being a christian? What does being a christian mean to you? If you "love" being a christian, "pray for your enemies, bless them and do good to them", like Jesus said. "Unless ye forgive others their trespasses against you, neither will My Father who is in heaven forgive you, your trespasses"

yes you certainly reflect the actual hidden sentiment of christianity.... I've long known your "love" was far from loving... Christianity was introduced suported by violence and survived by violence only..... without it you are wiped out. .Not because non christians are violent but because you are seen for what you are and anyone with a healthy strong conscience is going to see you for what you are and will not participate...

We are to pray that God's will, will be done.
If there is someone who you don't like or is doing some real damage in your life, God sees and He is a righteous judge, so leave that decision up to Him!
Please heed my advice on reading and studying the bible for yourself. THANKS

depends. if you have freedom of religion, then it's not illegal. but I doubt God will answer your prayers if you want someone, who btw is a potential brother or sister in Christ, dead.
