The very Elect, pass judgement and go up in the first/better resurrection and live and reign with Messiah for 1000 years. FYI, this is not all of the Saved!
These are those who have believed and obeyed the Truth and are Chosen/Elected by God. One must read the description of those in the first...
Most Christians are not stating their issue properly - True Chrisitans are not condemning gays and lesbians as it is always stated. What should be stated is that the homosexual ACT should be condemned. We are called by Jesus to love the sinner but hate the sin.
If you can gloss over the...
We are all aware of those things that are beneficial to society and those things that are not.
We all agree that:
Honoring your mother and father are good and benefits society.
Stealing is not good and hurts society.
Murder is not good and hurts society.
Adultery is not good and hurts society...

The Book of Mormon cannot be taken seriously, please!
They cannot even be considered Christian. They believe that God is a CREATED being and that he had a celestial wife and the product of that union was Jesus and that Satan is Jesus' brother! They believe that Jesus is the son of god but not...
To Voice of Reason:
You're listening?! I don't think you'll hear what you're listening for! At least I hope you don't! I don't think ANY Christian will condone what that quack said!
I think, or should I say hope, that most every Chrisitain thinks that Jimmy Swaggart IS A QUACK! I think people...
