[In response to allegations of people altering the Bible]
Theres no doubt in my mind that God would not let his word be altered in any way he did not want it to be. If Sodam and Gomorah were struck dead just 4 lying, then why can't some monk be struck dead?
So God killed 42 kids, how many has Mao killed?
Years ago, back when I was in middle school, I saw an angel, and a few years ago when I was in high school I saw a demon. This past summer, I had looked at a bunch of pornography on the computer while my family was away in Washington, DC, and when I was "done" I could hear footsteps walking all around the house; and I was home alone. I invited a friend over the next night to see if he had the same "experience" and he heard it also. We prayed throughout the whole house, and what not, and we've not heard any of this since.
Sex is for the purpose of procreating. You say what is wrong with pleasure. Tell me this, what is wrong with fucking an animal, having sex with little 5 year old girls etc? I'll tell you why, IT'S NOT NATURAL!!!
Give us a four page lecture on it, if you will. We're waiting with baited breath Einstein. Cosmic microwave background radiation? Just because you burnt your popcorn in the microwave, doesn't mean you witnessed the Big-Bang my friend.
Jesus is waving his hands in front of your face and you still can't see him. God dosen't call down fire like he did in the OT...he sent Jesus.....And that isn't enough for you?
LaVey is bullshit. i used to be far from what i am now....and i bought both the satanic bible and the satanic rituals (which i gladly threw away about 6 months ago..) and that is all garbage...he is telling people...gullible people....his own vision of this..and its crap....who ever follows that book is being played for a fukin dummie....i feel for those who give in to that nonsense..
of course he is worthy of worship. he is the Mighty One, the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, he's the wonderful one. if ne thing, u should just worship him out of pure fear of his wrath.
In the Bible is an account of the creation of the universe, the significant portion of which could not have been recorded without God Himself relaying the information to the initial recorder.
Santa Claus is a child's nightmare that has been agrivated by the rapid demonic threshhold we all call Xmas! Christmas=Baby Jesus being born and forever ruleing over Heaven and earth at the right hand of God. Xmas=Satan in a red suit with furry trim causing department stores to expload with sales and pretending to be the good fat jolly sesonal moral giver!
Of course I know people have different religious and spiritual beliefs. Isn't that what I was talking about? But now you are getting into absolute truth. Just cause you believe something doesn't make it true. You have no basis for your beliefs, they are just what you believe. I have God on my side.
I would suggest, a) The Universe and b) The Resurrection of Jesus. There is no better explanation than the fact that "God Did It"!
im sorry for saying this...no im not. but being gay is just sick and nasty. uggghhggg.
Atheism is just made up. Its not real.
Besides the historical inaccuracies of the Book of Morman, which the Bible does not have, the Bible warns against things like the LDS.
I think if fags don't believe in God then religion should have no influence on them. However, it is misunderstood people such as paul3 and yourself who try and deceive homosexuals in thinking it's okay to believe in God and be gay. It is people such as paul3 and yourself who have tried to justify this abomination as a "normal" practice when according to about 95% of the worlds population it is wrong according to their religious texts.
Ok Leon, I don't get it. A defendant is innocent until proven guilty, not guilty until proven innocent. So God exists until He is proven not to exist. Making Sense....... You just contradicted yourself with your own example. Poorly put.
Jesus didn't condemn slavery on the basis that it was considered normal by Jews and allowed by God. In fact, slavery wasn't even condemned by slaves. They were fed, clothed, given a bed and released after 7 years. Only in todays society is slavery seen as being wrong.
Whether or not homosexuals can experience 'true love'... I don't know. How do you know that? I tried to look up some Bible passages on love but I couldn't find anything. So much for that.
I know that I was asked to remove my signature which said 'DARWINS MOTHER WAS AN ASS' by the moderators which kinda pissed me off, but it's not mysite so I did what I was asked.
I don't think it [hell] is in the center of the Earth but it is odd how geologists say that the middle of the eart is molton rock with other minerals such as sulfer or "Brimestone" when at the time the Bible was written they did not know that.
Christian, do you believe it is harmful for Christian parents to play the game of "Santa Claus" with their children? Of whom I so fervently refer to as SATAN CLAWS.
What do people think about this? As most know there is this lady in Nigeria who has been ordered to be stoned to death for having a child out of wedlock. This has caused a significant outburst from western nations worldwide arguing the ruling is inhumane, uncivilised and breaches basic human rights. Although I find decision to be somewhat "harsh" this lady bought about her own judgement. In Northern Nigeria where the sha'riah is the law, it is a well known offence to commit adultery and although the stoning will be the first time it's practised in the region the Qu'ran makes it clear it is a capital offence. So although she knew her actions might lead to her death she took the risk anyway and now under shar'iah law she is going to be punished for it. I respect the human rights groups but I really don't think they understand religion at all and are only preventing justice before Allah or God taking place. From a Christian perspective I don't necessarily think it's wrong as well. When Jesus was preaching some Jews bought him a woman guilty of adultery and asked if the men condemned her. She said no so Jesus didn't condemn her neither. However, the men in Nigeria do condemn her so it seems likely she is worthy of her death. If you ask me, I think Jesus would urge compassion towards the lady and she shouldn't be stoned to death however establishing a worldwide crusade to prevent this stoning she bought upon herself shows a lack of respect for religion.
Men throw themselves on gernades to save their fellow soldiers in war. This isn't martyrdom either. It is dying for a cause.
This made me ask about how the bones [of dinosaur fossils?] got to be so large. Well, in biblical times people lived a whole lot longer than they do now (Methuselah, Noah). Well, in an ideal environment can live for up to 200 years and they never stop growing, this is more that enough time for them to become gargantuan accounting for the size of some of the fossils.
Why are there so many discussions about other religions (atheism, mormonism, etc) when everything boils down to one verse in the Bible I am The Way and The Truth and The Life and NO ONE comes to the Father EXCEPT through ME. -John 14:6. The Torah [Jewish name for the Old Testament] teaches that itself (the Torah) is The Way and The Truth and The Life when in all reality that isn't true. Jesus Christ is the only way.
If I abandon a Christian worldview, I see no plausible reason - other than purely selfish reasons - to be a Moral person. In fact, [and I know this will be contraversial] but I believe that many of these crimes are strictly due to a lack of the Christian worldview, although, paradoxically I find that many Christians [?] engage is such activities. If Christianity is proven false, do what you wanna do, as long as you come out alive and on top, Who cares... pure Hedonism is championed. Does that answer your question?
My opinion is that neither should be taught though. That would take care of the problem completly. I mean evolution will never help me in my career as a biochemist so why should i be forced to study it.
Your wrong, God didn't kill those people. The muslims belife that they have to kill Christians and people who don't belive the way they do killed those people. God just used that as a wake up call.
Islam started with this guy named Muhamed.he picked this god mamed Allah,the moon god out of the 2,000 gods of the arabs.
while the earth was young it was covered with water. the flood happened while the earth was young. my source was the discovery channel. and everybody knows thats what scientists think anyways. thats why there are so many expaditions to go look for lost ships of the flood and stuff like that."
"yes i do admit that the colarado river does do erosion to the canyon but i and many others believe that the river couldnt have eroded that much i 6,000 years. and the canyon is very high. the river was not that deep at one time to have washed out the top and bottom of the canyon. it would have only eroded the bottom."
"whatever. continental drift. its hard to believe thats how all these fossils of things that were way at the bottom of the ocean have been found up there. but believe what you want. i dont care.
How is it that God is cruel. who is it that does wrong, us or him. Suppose you mum said dont eat the cookie from the cookie jar. Would you do it, probably. So you go and do it and get punished [by being tortured in hell for eternity].
There is nothing scientific about evolution but a lot of high school and college textbooks attempt to indoctrinate young people into believing they are just the product of a "chance" occurrence and apes and humans came from a "common ancestor." No wonder young people all over this nation are killing each other left and right.
People say it's okay to be a Wiccan, Buddhist, Muslim or whatever but it must be made clear God hates these false religions (if they are in fact false) and He'd like to see them eradicated. Homosexuality is the killer. Priests, pastors, politicians etc are decieving God's little children into thing it's okay to be gay. The world has come to largely accept homosexuals in this world and the gay movement is stronger than ever... God hates it all. People think female pastors are a welcome but God says they're not (debatable). Many don't believe in capital punishment even though God created it. Pacifists and anti-war (defence) Christians are just confused. Is there a passage in the Bible that says we're to conform to social beliefs or don't people give a shit about the truth? Why so weak?
what does the Bible say about pro wrestling like wwe other whys nown as wwf because my bro loves it beyond all possible human beleif and when i asked him which site is better , www.bible.com or www.wwe.com, it took him a while to answer so i thought that was a bit stupid. so what im asking is wwf against the bible and if u could give a link so my bro dont pull a hissy fit if it is thanx and this will solve a lot of problems thanx again
Noah lived to be 950 (Genesis 9:29). And Methusela lived into his 900's also. Read your Bible. Before the flood men use to live very very long times. After the flood the death age got younger and younger. Again you have no idea how long people lived back then because you believe man and not God, your creator.
Why are you making it hard for yourself to belive that Jesus did die on a cross and rose again from the dead three days later.
Your scared to read the Bible because you know it is God's word and your afraid to see that.
Now, we're not supposed to marry unbelievers or form a partnership like going into business together, but being friends and hanging out is just fine.
Do you honestly think that you are the original in raising these questions? If the Bible could be proven false/and or/inaccurate, then Christianity wouldn't have survived 2000 years of persecution. People aren't willling to be burned alive and cut in half for lies. The only way that I see anyone could stand by their beliefs through all this because a loving God changed their lives through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
The only problem with the Bible being stories and myth or whatnot is that it would be very unique. I mean, all of it's major players ahve huge falws with them. Look at David. Great guy, man after God's own heart. Adulturer and murderer. He's not the perfect heroe like heroes should be. The Bible is all too true in its depiction of men.
[Replying to 'Do you believe that the victims deserved to die? No, of course not they deserved to live.'] "This is biblically wrong. All men deserve death. None are righteous. All fall short.
Maybe you should also let the scientists sort out the shenanigans... any theory they spout is exactly that... a theory... not truth, so sit back and wait 20 years til it's official.
No, they just spouted some Athiest dogma, which has very little backing and were insulting. AKA, if you question myths, why don't you question your own? Again, I reiterate, what evidence is there that Atheism is correct or the truth? I would like to comment that for every time someone mentions the Spanish Inquisition, I will reply with Pol Pot, 2 million people, Stalin, millions of people, Mao Se-dong, millions of people.
AMEN!!!! Evolution is the most retarded scientific idea ever created. DNA.....the genetic code for all humans do not have one single item related to any species of monkies, gorillas, chimps, etc. Wake up....the theory is wrong.
Honestly, I never really bought fully into the idea of ghosts. I do believe that there are supernatural forces at work on the Earth. That goes without question. But the idea of tormented souls walking the earth just kinda creeps me out and makes me think of people that have gone to hell being able to chill up here with us until the final judgement. I'm sorry, but I don't want to sit around drinkin coffee in the morning with Hitler sitting right beside me. I'm not saying that happens, but I'm just saying that's how I see it. I don't question that people's spirits are able to walk the earth because of the parable of Lazarus and the rich man. The rich man begged Abraham to allow Lazarus to present himself to his brothers on Earth, so apparently it is possible, but I don't buy into it. This is merely my opinion that most of what people call "ghosts" are frankly demons manipulating a weak person. I mean, my mother watches Crossing Over and it gives me the creeps because I know there's no way that it can be possible Biblically. Anyways, my 2 cents are in...
Men were made in the image of God. Women were made in the image of man. It is a womans job to be submissive to her husband and a mans job to rule over his wife. However, both are to be treated equally.
I don't believe ghost's are from a person..........but are a result of the actions of that person when they were alive..... The more evil an action was demonic spirits would be present....they sit around laughing at the person doing the act...imagine them sitting there watching as a human hacks a body into pieces.. The demons sit there and say to themselves...look at the stupid humans doing our masters work.. When stuff like this happens this delights the stupid demons and they like that area..
All of the laws you said here have blaring moral foundations. No one wants to get cheated out of money. And the fishing license thing isn't just for money. It regulates the fishing laws and keeps track of whose fishing so that everybody can't just go out and hook 800 fish a day and that we perserve certain species. It all has morals weather it be about money or not. And those goofy laws you talked about even had morals too. Maybe walking across the street on your hands poses a serious threat in that town.
Most of you atheists are full of crap with your "scientific research". Admit it, at least 99% of you simply go to an atheist website and copy & paste whatever you think will peeve off a Christian that is immature or misinformed about the faith. Grow up and stop wasting your time here. Bashing baby Christians DOES NOT make you intelligent. Furthermore, go do some REAL studies." "Christians (or prospective Christians), quit looking for theological answers on the internet. You have churches in your local area for a reason. If your church doesn't have the answers, then go to another one, you're at the wrong church." "Concerning evolution, it should not be confused for adaptation. Adaptation to the environment and other such factors is a reality for all species. God knew what He was doing when He created us all. Adaptation is certainly acceptable to Christian theology. Evolution and Christianity, on the other hand, are not compatible. Don't like it? Too bad. Get over it.
