    Mohamed sws 's message from God?

    When I consider how Mohamed got Christianity wrong in his description of the Christian Faith, I realise that he was misguided. Since angels of God do not lie, whoever he talked to was not an angel of God. I believe that he was misguided and deceived because otherwise, he sounds like he honestly...

    Is the Trinity the God?

    An other factor worth mentioning is that we Christians believe God is self sufficient. God does not need any creature or creation in any way shape or form. So the Trinity is self-sufficient. The three persons are blessed in and by themselves. They absolutely exists by, for, and in themselves...

    On our forehead or hand...what does this sound like to you?

    I believe that: . on your forehead means what's on your mind all the time. . on your hand means what you do. So there is always sign on our forehead and our hand. A practice of something leaves a mark...

    Abrahamic Baptism

    Actually Christianity is jewish, at the beginning it appeared as a jewish sect/denomination. John the Baptist is a reminder that in a way Christianity does not begin just with Jesus, but it has always existed from the beginning. From the time Adam and Eve were told of a seed which will destroy...

    Was there a biginning?

    'When?' is a question that comes when 'Why?' is not being answered or not being answered properly. First comes 'Why?' then 'When?', then 'How?'

    Was there a biginning?

    Nice conversation. It reminded me that the One whose identity is 'I Am who Am' says 'I am the beginning and the end'. Yes, all there is in Now. I agree. 'Beginning' is not just a referrance to time, but to the foundation of things. 'End' is also not so much about time as it is about purpose...

    Non-Abrahamic Religious Figures as Messengers of God- Thoughts?

    God has always reached out to all people. Even the Bible have cases of gentiles who were friends with God. One of them is Job. Only I believe there is something particular about Abrahamic and later Judeo-Christian messangers of God. All religions, except Christianity, seem to me like they are...

    What is the greatest illusion?

    Yes, that's what I meant when I said that it depends on people. It apply to them depending on their situation. I can say that the great illusion is for a person to think they are right while they are wrong.

    Is the Trinity the God?

    I used to think like that, but one day, I realized that relationship also makes unity of those who are related and that they are truly one thanks to the relationship. About the water example, I realize that it require change or different environment, but the persons of the Trinity are always...

    Is the Trinity the God?

    Trinity is just a description of the situation. Godhead is also a term used to refer to the unity of mind and vision. It is not like we have one person with three heads, or one head with three bodies.

    Where did Jesus asked to be worshpped?

    I did reread it. I think it depends on how we understand the meaning of 'worship'. As humans, we know that we don't always grasp words litterally. Jesus knew it, in fact he spoke to people often in parables. Prophets of the OT knew it as well. And I know it. So when I read the Bible, I take all...

    Where did Jesus asked to be worshpped?

    God is self-sufficient. He does not need anything. He does not need our worship. In General He does not ask as anything as he does not need anything from us. He just give us gift. Worship is a spirit of thanksgiving and gratitude. Just as a mother tell a child to be thankful to his father and a...

    Death & the cross

    What happened at your debate?:) Yes, the cross is about love and the death of Jesus is more a matter of reason, than history. So before even trying to find out whether it was historically true, one may try to find out whether it is reasonable. God can not die, so to free men who are held...

    Is the Trinity the God?

    It is simple: It is about the revelation of the God who is One, yet not solitary. The Trinity is three persons in perfect unity, therefore in perfect oneness. The person's identities are relationships to each other: Father of the Son Son of the Father Holy Spirit of them both. Because there are...

    What do Catholics teach about hell?

    The way I understand it is like this. Imagine being stuck with a person in a small place. You feeling toward them will make a great deal of difference. If it is someone lovely/loveable, it is great, if it is someone you don't like, then it can be like hell. Well, God is everywhere, so where is...

    Why do Catholics believe in Purgatory?

    Because it makes clear sense. It is about purification. Purification makes good sense does it not?:) God bless
