    Love one another?

    Should the daily practice of mental/physical acts of love towards one another be a standard of the Christian faith? (e.g. mental acts= mental attitude towards people, esp people who do you wrong, you don't agree with, and who you just don't like) (e.g. physical acts= Giving to the homeless...

    God's help...

    It never says anywhere in the bible that god helps those who help themselves, ever. Look it up. I talk to God about most things throughout the day. Not so much to ask Him but to be in communication with the "lover of my soul." You can ask Him for anything you want. Infact the more you trust...

    The 10 borrowed commandments

    I would say it is much more likely that a lot of other religions borrowed from christianity like the ancient egyptions and islamic faith. Which has %70 of the same "values" as christianity. I attribute this to Paul the Apostle converting the whole known islamic world around 100 A.D. They...

    why it's always ( ISLAM vs. CHRISTIANITY )

    Do you believe that Jesus may referring to himself when we read in the OT "You shall have no other God but me" or he was God "The Father" from your point view? (someones got to show me how to do the quote thing) Jesus claims(and is) to be God so either(as c.s. lewis said) you think He is a...

    why it's always ( ISLAM vs. CHRISTIANITY )

    Do Christisnas believe that they don't need to do good things as long as they acknowledge Jesus Christ as thier savior? (sorry dont know how to the the quote thing) I as a follower of Christ don't believe anything is needed except a heart humbled and a converstation with God. After that you...

    For non-closed minded

    I have been in youth and missionary ministries for a long time, when paul talks about forgiveness in a past tense (which he always does) i simply take that to be literall. So i don't have to ask for forgiveness as a child washed clean by Christ blood. I do remember when i sin that i am...

    why it's always ( ISLAM vs. CHRISTIANITY )

    I have talked to many different people on the topic of islam. Muslims mostly and your right i could be wrong but that is the thing everyone of them said. Now for my own research besides the well respected people ive talked to all muslims say they believe in a merciful god and that is what gets...

    For non-closed minded

    Sorry i haven't read post in a while. The few responses after mine am the ones i am talking to. Romans 5,6, and 7 paul speaks to this issue to the romans. He states we are forgiven once and for all(also says this in hebrews 10 i believe) then he adds the answer to your very question "you are...

    why it's always ( ISLAM vs. CHRISTIANITY )

    People who think there can be compromise miss the point of Christianity and fall into the new age movement catoglory. Jesus says "I am the only way to God" and in the ten commandments God states "You shall have no other God but me." Now it might quickly be argued that they are the same god...

    Jesus or Paul

    Jesus isnt the founder of the Christian faith. He is the Christian faith. Paul spread a lot of it directly after Christ' death, but Paul himself said"do no choose between apollos and myself because where one sows the other reaps." So he didnt want comparison as it was, but he would laugh if...

    Sodom and Gomorra

    Either way homosexuality is one of the ten commandments, one of the seven deadly sins, and is mentioned in 1 cor 5 as a sin. So im not saying God doesn't love that person, i just wanted to clearfy that it is a sin. adam

    Forgiveness (BTK)

    Dennis is probably past point where he would repent and invite God into his heart. If he did he would be forgiven. If he says as some serial killer do God told him to do it that is a lie. God cannot go against His character and He clearly says though shalt not commit murder many times, so of...

    Religious Tolerance -- Too much of a good thing?

    Jesus helped people because He cared for them, but look what He did in the temple when they made a mockery of it. And look what God had isiah do to the prophets of baal. And daniel deny to worship the king as GOd and be sent to the lions den. I believe when God says that He is GOd and there is...

    Forgiveness of sins

    I agree with minus. God forgave us when we accept Him by accepting Jesus Christ into our hearts. Paul refers to forgiveness as past tense we are already forgiven because the Blood of Jesus paid for our sins "once and for all" hebrews. The psalmist david says of GOd's children that He throws...

    Does God have free will?

    God has mapped a lot of things out in His word and choosing our own "hill" isn't part of His map. He says in romans 12:1 "therefore i urge you brothers in view of GOd's mercy to offer your bodies as a living sacriface Holy and pleasing to Him." He simply ask us to submit to Him, but we tend to...

    About Prayer

    There are things that happens in this world that go way beyond coincendences(sp?) but i would say there are coincendences for good and bad. To say that people always attribute bad things as evil and good things as coincedences is false and i have found that it can even be used as a copout to...

    About Prayer

    some of these answers are funny to me. The truth is not many people know why they pray or what it should look like including myself a lot of the times. Prayer is simply communication with God. Think of it as a personal relationship with your father who happens to be the King of Kings. The...

    For non-closed minded

    First of all the original question is simple enough? You view rape and murder as these horrible sins (which they are) and don't consider other sins as equal to them. In God's eyes all sin does is separate us from him and the basis of to spend eternity with HIm you must be perfect. Therefore...
