..Ive been told that holy water is not just a water..its a mixed ingredients? is this true?
what is the use of holy water? why someone who drink the holy water will automatically gain faith, its like being possessed?
Ive heard a story about two muslim who wanna revert into christian..one of them drink the holy water, suddenly his other friend aghast a while..then he refused to drink the holy water..
His friend ask why..
and then he said, "when you(his friend) drink the holy water, suddenly I can see a bird-like shining so bright flew out his body...
then he ask imam, what is that? then the Imam said, Its your friend faith to Allah that flew from his head and heart...and god wanna show you, and God still love you..
SO, comments?

My buddy Alex once put his man juice in the holy water in church. That didn't fly from his heart though.

Holy water is simply water that has been blessed by a priest.
Before the Second Vatican Council modernized Catholic rituals in the 1960s, priests added salt to make holy water. The salt was exorcised of possible evil spirits and then mixed with water during the blessing.

i might somewhat like it if somebody would desire to tell me the place interior the Bible it says there's a trinity. till that element i'm going to have faith that there are 3 "entities" that share understanding. Jesus and The Holy Ghost do no longer understand whilst God will return. That, to me, shows a separation and no "Holy Trinity". As we can see in Matthew 24:36 it says "the daddy on my own". 36 “yet of that day and hour no person knows, no longer even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, however the daddy on my own. is this what you meant? Matthew 7:13-14 13 enter ye in on the strait gate: for extensive is the gate, and huge is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and various of different there be which flow in thereat: 14 as a results of fact strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto existence, and few there be that locate it.

Im Christian and I dont believe of Holy water. (but I've heard about it when I was studying in a Catholic school)
Only God is Holy.
Faith? Faith comes from learning of God's Word.

Yeah, that's called 'the power of suggestion'. Its just water that some man has spoken some words over, nothing more. It's just water. Drink it, and if you're thirsty you won't be thirsty any longer - that's all that it'll do. The idea that it induces hallucinations is just ridiculous, unless it's been adulterated with something.

Surely you know the answer to this? Holy water is just ordinary water with the hell boiled out of it.

Are you saying that holy water "is for the birds"?

Who knows if anything is placed in their by the priests , the fact is that it is not a Christian teaching form the Bible.
That being the case , true Christians , and the true Christian religion will not practice such a thing.
For more Bible based info please feel free to email me.
