    Should Your Belief System Be Based On One Truth?

    I think that Jesus said it well in John 14:6 "I am the way, the TRUTH, and the life". He didn't claim to know the truth, or help us find this truth, but claimed to be IT. A knowledge of truth comes from knowing Jesus, period.

    Creation Poll

    I'm always amazed at the biblical "scholars" on this site. The verse refered to here is speaking of judging to condemnation. I simply stated my opinion. I hope that's O K. :eek: "Stop judging me" is normally the cry of someone who is offended when they hear the truth. :)

    Creation Poll

    To believe in evolution, or the big bang takes more faith than to believe in itelligent design. Oh, Hirohito, your signature is interesting. It's been my experience that people who claim christians judge them are very insecure, and often resort to name calling so attention is drawn away from...

    Another question for atheists...

    We were created to have fellowship with God, and anything aside from that will leave an empty feeling, or a "God shaped hole". We find fulfilment in just "hanging out" with the Lord.

    Lucifer

    Lucifer was originally the worship leader in Heaven.(sorry, I don't have a scripture reference for you, but I'm certain that you can find it.) There's even speculation that his body may have been an instrument. So, to make a long story short, he exalted himself, and was cast down from Heaven...

    Did Jesus claim Himself to be God?

    I always use John 8:50-58. (I go back quite a few verses so the scripture can't be taken out of context) In verse 58, Jesus used the same words that God did to describe Himself in Exodus 3;13-14. In John 8, Jesus said "before Abraham was I AM". And, I find it interesting that the Jews picked up...

    Adam and Eve, and various takes on that story

    I'm sorry ceridwen, but very little of your reply made sense. Could you please elaborate?

    Adam and Eve, and various takes on that story

    What really amazes me is that you know me so well :rolleyes: . I do not use the Bible to "wrap" things in so I can justify certain actions. Also,to compare me with the Taliban is really sad. :( It's really very simple. (now stay with me here) God put Adam and Eve in the middle of a huge lush...

    the tree of knowledge

    oops, I posted that before it was finished. What I wanted to say in closing is your question is very valid, thanks surrealgurl.

    the tree of knowledge

    Hey, that's a very good question. Alot of people ask the same ones about christianity that everyone does (mostly nonsense). I'll do some research and respond then. :)

    Adam and Eve, and various takes on that story

    The tree was put in the center of the garden so that Adam and Eve would have a choice. Love demands a choice, if it's forced, then that could be considered rape. They did have free will at that time, hence the tree. God doesn't want robots following His every command, but people who are in love...

    Should committed same-sex relationships be recognized by the government?

    I gotta hurry, I'm on lunch. The question I have is, if homosexuality is okay, and unions should be recognized, then why can't homosexual "couples" pro-create? (have children) I believe there is a two part answer to this question. (oh yeah, the Bible has alot to do with this discussion Dolly)1...

    The true key to heaven

    I just wanted to give you a super quick response. I'm on my lunch break, so forgive my brevity. Salvation, (according to the Bible) has nothing to do with me, and everything to do with Jesus (John 3:16). There are those that say it has to do with the good things we do, but I disagree based on...

    Sorry so late.

    Hey, my apologies, I just realized that this forum was here. I've been jumping around reading other posts. Anyhow, I'll try to make it short. I'm a christian, but I need to clarify, because alot of people use that term. I take the Bible literally as God's word, I also believe in salvation...

    Should committed same-sex relationships be recognized by the government?

    Maize, I believe I answered your question in the post above, as well.

    Should committed same-sex relationships be recognized by the government?

    I think you must remember that this Nation was founded on christian principles, and (unfortunatley) over the years has regressed into a secular government. Now, studies have confirmed that children do better in a natural family setting. By natural, I mean one father, and one mother. We can see...

    Doesn't WW2 Show Christiany is Wrong?

    I think that something needs to be considered here. As a result of WW2, the world (finally) felt sympathy towards the Jews. Therefore, the nation of Israel was reborn. I firmly believe this was Gods' doing. (not WW2, but the nation being reborn) Also, something that we must remember is that...

    Should committed same-sex relationships be recognized by the government?

    I personally am opposed to homosexual unions, and unlike some people, see recognizing homosexual unions as regressive, not progressive. I am a christian, and I believe 100% in the word of God. The Bible is very clear in stating homosexuality as a sin. Some might say that I'm "homophobic", but...
