    Question for all religious people.

    No. The Bible states no-one is good enough to go to Heaven because of their own "goodness." This is why Jesus came from Heaven to Earth to save us. I'll put it this way: A person is drowning and can't save himself. Someone comes along and offers them a lifeline. Your options would be: 1)...

    I WAS a fundamentalist

    Oh, there are just so many things you misunderstand or do not understand. I think the main thing is, you were never a true convert and it's coming out now. This is not said to put you down in any way but to simply believe the Scriptural teaching on true and false converts.

    Questions for Monotheists

    Yes, there are testimonies aplenty of people converting to other beliefs but I'd ask, why that particular one and who does it serve primarily? Of course, I can't speak to every single case so I'll be general here. So: Islam - Muhammad: What did he give up and what did he get? Mormonism -...

    Questions for Monotheists

    Good question. I'll reverse answer. What was it that convinced me and others the God of Israel is the One True God? 1) Consistency of His Book. Why tell us through His messengers other gods are nothing but idols and the imagination of man? Did other religions teach this before the Torah? 2)...

    Jehovah's Witnesses Knocked on My Door

    "Now hear it, O inhabitants of the earth, Jew and Gentile, Saint and sinner! When our father Adam came into the garden of Eden, he came into it with a celestial body, and brought Eve, one of his wives, with him. He helped to make and organize this world. He is Michael, the Archangel, the Ancient...

    Jehovah's Witnesses Knocked on My Door

    Start a thread on that and I'll meet you over there to discuss further.

    Jehovah's Witnesses Knocked on My Door

    Then explain how God was once Adam and Adam became God.

    Jehovah's Witnesses Knocked on My Door

    Not sure why I never got this alert and others just came through, but... A JW does not study what the Bible teaches per se but rather what the WTS says about it. There's a big difference. It's no different from the Mormons.

    What is the purpose of religion divine or nihilism

    Hi, it's a question that will arise again and again. I agree there are contradictions in all religions that's why you have so many. But there are some things I'd like your thoughts on. "ALL contradict each other." - Would you expect them to agree on everything? If religion is man-made and...

    Jehovah's Witnesses Knocked on My Door

    This is the WT bias coming out here.To start with a doctrine which denies the Trinity then publish the NWT to reflect that is not being fair to the reader.

    Jehovah's Witnesses Knocked on My Door

    Jesus had relationship. That's why He called God His Father.

    Jehovah's Witnesses Knocked on My Door

    That's the problem right there; religion. Thankfully I don't have religion. I have Christ.

    Jehovah's Witnesses Knocked on My Door

    As with such groups the WT witness expresses what the leadership tell them to say. If they begin to think for themselves the psychological battle of believing what their intelligence is saying gives way to family ties and community. I had an opportunity to spend some time with one such person...

    Is a person a Christian if...

    If you'd like to read a few short posts to start with and I'll reply when I have the time. These are exchanges between Daisies4me ("JW"), and I. #155, 160, 177 181, 192. Pay attention to what I said in reply to the WT quote about the Trinity and what D4me says in return.

    "JW's." That would make the Watchtower Society and its members Christians yet it denies so many basics of the faith!

    I've got the blues

    SFG, please don't be offended by this but, why do you say God created LGBT people? You're looking for something which suits your personal preferences?

    Is a person a Christian if...

    That was an odd way to reply to my post. It looked as though you only quoted me and nothing more. I only saw your comment when I expanded. What the WT quoted I simply responded to. As I said, they take a specific teaching on the Trinity and deny it by using a flawed argument, something...

    Is a person a Christian if...

    Allow me to use what you said and apply it to those I've spoken to about God and the many definitions as to what they mean. Would you say then a true definition of God does not exist because of all the other definitions? This is not good reasoning. But let's look at how the WT take the...
