    Based SOLELY on Holy Scripture, AS WRITTEN, (not according to man's "philosophies" or "prejudices") what EXACTLY is stopping YOU "personally" from Believing The Gospel and then being Born Again through Baptism, as a soul capable of speaking and capable of going FULLY UNDER THE WATER and then Up Into The New Life with GOD In The Lord JESUS Christ ???

    Mark 16 : 15 - 16
    And he said unto them,
    Go ye into all the world,
    and preach the gospel to every creature.
    He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved;
    but he that believeth not shall be damned.

      Unfortunately, there were no stenographers or court reporters taking notes when Jesus was around so no one knows what he taught - except me.  Jesus has told me exactly what it takes to get to heaven but he said I had to keep it a secret and no one else can know.

      So, I guess the rest of your guys are pretty well f*#cked.

      Mainly because people don't know what Jesus taught. You refer to Mark, but I refer you to Matthew 5:17 "I come not to destroy, but to fulfil." In other words, he didn't get rid of the old covenant, he fulfilled the old covenant, and unless you can do so as well, you can't be a true follower of Christ. Even if I was inclined to the Bible instead of against it, once I was able to read, I would've known that I failed because I couldn't fulfil 613 laws that I never knew anything about.

      Something to do with how the bible insists I should kill homosexuals, people who commit adultery, women who are not virgins on their wedding nights, and everyone who has a different faith. I am just not sanguine enough I guess.

      "If a man lies with a male as with a women, both of them shall be put to death for
      their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives."  (Leviticus 20:13 NAB)

      If a man commits adultery with another man's wife, both the man and the woman must be put to death.  (Leviticus 20:10 NLT)

      But if this charge is true (that she wasn't a virgin on her wedding night), and evidence of the girls virginity is not found, they shall bring the girl to the entrance of her fathers house and there her townsman shall stone her to death, because she committed a crime against Israel by her unchasteness in her father's house.  Thus shall you purge the evil from your midst.  (Deuteronomy  22:20-21 NAB)

      They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.  (2 Chronicles 15:12-13 NAB)


      I would literally have to go kill everyone I know but aren't I not supposed to kill... Following the bible exactly is near impossible and entirely impractical and evil.

        THIS IS THE WHOLE POINT OF THE NEW TESTAMENT....

        JESUS OVERCAME THE OLD - THE NEW IS THE NEW...


        In reply to the quotes above (WHICH ARE OUT OF TEMPORAL CONTEXT)

        NOW HEAR THIS :

        Hebrews 9 : 1-10
        Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary. For there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein was the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the sanctuary. And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all; Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;
        And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly. Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God. But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people: The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing: Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience; Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.

        11- 13 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:

        14 - 17 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
        For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.

        18-21 Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood. For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people, Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.

        22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

        23 It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

        24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:

        25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;

        26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

        27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

        28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.


        AMEN & AMEN

        Salvation is By FAITH and Adherence to The Teachings of JESUS.

        Since JESUS was FULLY BAPTIZED AT THE AGE OF 30 (He had NO need to be Baptized, being SINLESS), He Illustrated The Way Forward for ALL who WILL Believe The Fundamental, Simple Gospel.

        The Baptism is SIMPLY The Beginning - REPENTANCE and Change then become a Way Of Life....

        The Holy Ghost Is SENT By The Lord for each person that is Elected By Grace, having First Believed, and THEN Followed On to be Baptized.

        The Holy Ghost ALSO Precedes Water Baptism, "sometimes".

        Nothing stands alone.

        Fellowship in a local Assembly is NON-NEGOTIABLE.

        Learning The New Language takes time.

        Being CLEANSED of past sin takes time.

        God Is VERY Patient with those who Love Him and His Holy Son.

        The Preparatory Work is Done By The Holy Spirit.

        Each Fully Saved Soul KNOWS this clearly in retrospect.

        You can't go swimming if you don't enter the water....

        Finally, JESUS is The One Who Saves, By The Holy Spirit.

        The other Events DO NOT Save a Soul. They are Steps In The Process, and these for normal people.

        Paralysed people or those near death that can speak STILL have the Chance....

        Those who are UNABLE to be fully immersed can Simply Speak The Simple Prayer of Salvation.

        The mute, deaf and blind are Loved By God, BECAUSE it was satan that DID this to them.

        God KNOWS Everything.

        It is the heart of the person He Seaches out Deeply.

        CONCLUSION : Salvation for each soul spells DOOM for the unclean kingdom of satan - AND THIS IS THE REAL POINT...

        The Lord IS returning SOON, Very Soon....

        Pray By Faith, In JESUS' Holy Name - Amen & Amen..

        Love & Hope & Truth...

        Selah....

        E

        † Matthew 3 : 16 - 17 †
        "And Jesus, when he was baptized,
        went up straightway out of the water:
        and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him,
        and he saw the Spirit of God
        descending like a dove,
        and lighting upon him:
        And lo a voice from heaven, saying,
        This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

      Religion is man-made. It is corrupt and discriminative. During the Middle Ages through the Renaissance, the Pope was extremely dishonest and impious. The rich were "guaranteed" a place in heaven by purchasing God's forgiveness through the church. The Pope engaged in illicit sexual affairs, as did many of his cardinals. Christianity has led to war and death. I believe in God—I have faith in his existence—but I do not believe in religion.

      TMDHemsley17posted 11 years agoin reply to this

      Because the Bible is flawed, superstitious, discriminatory, and historically/scientifically inaccurate.

      You say "exactly as Jesus taught". There are problems with that statement. Firstly, there is no evidence to suggest that what is written in the New Testament are actually the words of Jesus. They may have been the words of other prophets of the time or simply those of the writers of the Bible putting words in Jesus' mouth to give him importance. So who's to say that what is written in a several century old book written by numerous authors is the word of Jesus. The authorship of the Bible and the way it was put together also raises questions. It was written by various individuals, many years after Jesus' death, and stories tend to change over time. It was also selectively put together, as any gospels that portrayed Jesus as not divine or the son of God were omitted. Then comes the question of which bible? The Bible's order and contents vary among denominations, so one denomination will have a teaching that another does not.

      Then there is the problem of the Old Testament. It preaches hatred, racism, homophobia, sexism and misogyny, slavery, and murder. The Old Testament is morally wrong and a disgusting, hateful piece of literature, and how anyone could follow it as correct is beyond me. I'm sure you'll argue against that with the oft told argument "We don't follow the old testament, we follow the new testament". Firstly, if you can choose what part of your supposedly holy book to follow, why bother with the damn thing. Secondly, I assume you live your life by the Ten Commandments, which were put forward in the OLD Testament. Thirdly, if you only follow the New Testament, then you are actually going against teachings in the New Testament, as there are several verses which state you must follow the Old Testament, as it is the word of God and must not be ignored. And even if you only follow the New Testament, it still has sexism, hatred, and discrimination within it, which is evident in the discriminatory beliefs of many religious people.

      As a person with a love of history and an admiration and adherence to science and reason, I find the Bible to be a useless and ridiculous piece of scripture. Very little of the Bible is historically accurate or ties in with history, and most of it is irrational and impossible psychobabble. Adam and Eve? Noah's Ark? Feeding of the 5000? Jesus' resurrection? Among others, these are all scientifically and logically impossible and are ridiculous and absurd. Then bring in the absurdity of the idea of God, the fact there is no evidence to support a creator, and how if there is a God he is a unimaginably cruel, narcissistic, and hateful entity, it makes the Bible even more farcical and unbelievable. I sincerely hope there isn't a God, it would be terribly bad if there was one. The biblical verse you have put in "and he that believeth not shall be damned" just shows that God is a discriminatory bastard who dislikes anyone who doesn't follow him.

          So what if he's no longer here, I'm answering the question as if he were and to let my view be known. And God didn't hear me because God is a non-existent entity and as such is unable to hear anything I have to say.

          What joke? God is a bastard because he doesn't have a daddy? I'm not joking, if God does exist, he is evil and immoral. But thankfully, he doesn't, so with great relief I can say "Fuck God!" and know nothing will come of it.

          I'm picking a fight with religion, not with God, because again, he doesn't exist. Religion needs to know not everyone will put up with its superstitious and false beliefs that have cause oppression and hatred throughout its existence, and that people are willing to stand up for reason and rationality.

          Not to worry, according to the bible you get your pick of the women after you win war. If you're American you can pick any Iranian women. I do think there are some minor rules you must follow.

          Deuteronomy 21:10-14 NKJV
          When you go out to war against your enemies, and the LORD your God delivers them into your hand, and you take them captive, and you see among the captives a beautiful woman, and desire her and would take her for your wife, then you shall bring her home to your house, and she shall shave her head and trim her nails. She shall put off the clothes of her captivity, remain in your house, and mourn her father and her mother a full month; after that you may go in to her and be her husband, and she shall be your wife. And it shall be, if you have no delight in her, then you shall set her free, but you certainly shall not sell her for money; you shall not treat her brutally, because you have humbled her.

          Deuteronomy 20:10-14 NIV
          When you march up to attack a city, make its people an offer of peace. 11 If they accept and open their gates, all the people in it shall be subject to forced labor and shall work for you. 12 If they refuse to make peace and they engage you in battle, lay siege to that city. 13 When the LORD your God delivers it into your hand, put to the sword all the men in it. 14 As for the women, the children, the livestock and everything else in the city, you may take these as plunder for yourselves. And you may use the plunder the LORD your God gives you from your enemies.

      God Finally DECIDES this - Through JESUS - The Great Judge.

      FORTUNATELY, His Doctrine is ALL IN WRITING.

      Hence, The Road To BEING ALIVE When HE Returns, is a Process of FOLLOWING Christ.

      Everytime your CONSCIENCE pricks you about something - BE HONEST,
      this is your SIN Geiger Counter...

      REPENTANCE of SIN is Essential.

      FORGIVENESS of SIN is DIVINE.

      How can ANYONE be Forgiven By GOD IF They DENY The Truth of JESUS ???

      Hence, ATHEISM (for example) and ALL OTHER RELIGIONS, collapse In The Holy Face of The Lord JESUS Christ - ALIVE IN HEAVEN RIGHT NOW, being some 2012 years old in the EXACT Body That was Crucified, Resurrected & THEN Physically Ascended.

      He ASCENDED with His ACTUAL BONES - Not one having been broken.

      BELIEVING this, without argument or doubt, is The Highway To Holiness,
      and The Foundation of BECOMING a TRUE Christian.

      This IS The Faith.

      THEN, there are THE WORKS !!!

      These Aspects ALL take Time - BUT, A BELIEVER Must Start SOMEWHERE....

      Here's a Great Place to START :

            Based from the timeline of ages of "rulers" and who preceeded them or took over for them...The bible holds approx. 4500 years (give or take some) from Adam and Eve to the time of Jesus' birth.

            So I would say religious thought based from biblical teachings...would be a better way to say it..(just my opinion of course)

              for a start we believe that adam and eve where created around 6,000 years ago, science and archeology dont dispute that too much they believe modern humans appeared around 9,000 years ago and the question was on the age of the earth being 6,000 years ago not the human race...Genesis 1:1 in the beggining god created the heavens and the earth...do you see any timeframe there? i dont...

                On the second day he formed the earth...and the 6 day created man...So lets just go with a day to God is a thousand years...

                Day 6 is 6000 years ago from today's time...and add 4000 to get from day 2 to day 6 and we get 10,000 years total...But that is using "interpretation"..

                Bible says everything created in 6 days (no years stated) and then start adding years of Patiarch/Judges/Kings lines to the time of Jesus and we get about 4000-4500 years...Depending on math and allowing some room for age at birth and age at death errors...

                Any way you cut it...It still doesn't add up to billions, million or even hundred thousands of years...Or even the "9000 years" you stated for modern humans...

                    And I was off somewhat...The second and third day is the earth creation...Formed it on day two and made dry land and water which he called "earth (dirt)" and "Seas" on day three.

                    And who doesn't count the years before Noah?? The bible gives the age of Adam and others prior to Noah in years..

        books like bible or quran or torah are matter of mere belief and believes keep evolving like it has always been...today we see decline is christianity world over barring under developed countries because these books have seized to be best answers to human questions...still these books have value in terms of essence but divinity of such book was also question mark even when these books where conceived and it would be questioned more and more in future , till it becomes obselete...it has happened with other books and thats the cycel...

        beauty of science is that when proven wrong , it stands corrected...it doesnot say ohh but i was inspired and cant be wrong.....problem with books who are claimed to be holy is even when decisive proof for they being wrong at places are given , it refuses to correct itself because claim of divinity is there on such books...

            Better Explanations for "Noah's Ark" Structure?

            Even if the Noah's Ark Ministries International team did find a wooden structure or even a boat on Mount Ararat, there are other explanations for what the structure might be.

            For example, it could be a shrine constructed by early Christians to commemorate the site where they believed Noah's Ark should be, Zimansky said.

            Even in that speculative case, it wouldn't be 4,000 years old. "The Bible hadn't even been written yet," he said.

            Bible scholar Sasson said he thinks biblical writers intended the story of Noah's ark to be allegorical, not a true recounting of historical events. By presenting a scenario in which humanity is punished for its wickedness, "they were trying to draw us to the notion of a God who asks us to be acceptable," Sasson said.

              Then explain these PROPHECIES, proven as Written from 1990 BC thru 400 BC

              Check the references and READ THE FACTS :-

              OLD TESTAMENT PROPHECIES OF CHRIST FULFILLED FROM AD 0 - AD 33.5 IN THE HISTORY BOOK (THE NEW TESTAMENT)

                  1. Christ was to be of king David’s Family (Matthew 22:44; Mark 12:36; Luke 1:69,70; 20:42-44; John 7:42; 2nd Samuel 7:12-16; Psalm 89:3-4; 110:1; 132:11; Isaiah 9:6,7; 11:1).

                 2. Christ was to be Born of a Virgin (Matthew 1:23; Isaiah 7:14).

                 3. Christ was to be Born in Bethlehem (Matthew 2:6; John 7:42; Micah 5:2).

                 4. Christ would Sojourn in Egypt (Matthew 2:15; Hosea 11:1).

                 5. Christ would Live in Galilee (Matthew 4:15; Isaiah 9:1,2)

                 6. Christ would Live at Nazareth (Matthew 2:23; Isaiah 11:1).

                 7. Christ’s Coming would be Announced by an Elijah-like Herald (Matthew 3:3; 11:10-14; Mark 1:2-3; Luke 3:4-6; 7:27; John 1:23; Isaiah 40:3-5; Malachi 3:1; 4:5).

                 8. Christ’s Coming would occasion the Massacre of Bethlehem’s Children (Matthew 2:18; Genesis 35:19-20; 48:7; Jeremiah 31:15).

                 9. Christ would Proclaim a Jubilee to the World (Luke 4:18-19; Isaiah 58:6; 61:1).

                10. Christ’s Mission would include Gentiles (Matthew 12:18-21; Isaiah 42:1-4).

                11. Christ’s Ministry would be one of Healing (Matthew 8:17; Isaiah 53:4).

                12. Christ would Teach by Parables (Matthew 13:14, 15, 35; Isaiah 6:9-10; Psalm 78:2).

                13. Christ would be Disbelieved and Rejected by the Rulers (Matthew 15:8, 9; 21:42; Mark 7:6, 7; 12:10 11; Luke 20:17; John 12:38-40; 15:25; Psalm 69:4; 118:22; Isaiah 6:10; 29:13; 53:1).

                14. Christ would make a Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem (Matthew 21:5; John 12:13-15; Isaiah 62:11; Zechariah 9:9; Psalm 118:26).

                15. Christ would be like a Smitten Shepherd (Matthew 26:31; Mark 14:27; Zechariah 13:7).

                16. Christ would be Betrayed by a Friend for 30 Pieces of Silver (Matthew 27:9-10; John 13:18; Zechariah 11:12-13; Psalm 41:9).

                17. All the Disciples Forsook Him and Fled (Matthew 26:56; Psalm 38:11; Isaiah 63:3).

                18. They would Cast Lots for Christ’s Garments (Matthew 27:35; John 19:24; Psalm 22:18).

                19. Christ’s Hands, Feet and Side would be Pierced (Matthew; Psalm 22:16; Zechariah 12:10).

                20. Christ would be Given Vinegar and Gall (Matthew 27:34; John 19:29; Psalm 69:21).

                21. Christ’s Bone’s would Not be Broken (John 19:36; Exodus 12:46; Numbers 9:12; Psalm 34:20).

                22. Christ would Die with Malefactors (Luke 22:37; Isaiah 53:9, 12).

                23. Christ’s Dying Words were Foretold (Matthew 27:46; Mark 15:34; Luke 23:46; Psalm 22:1; 31:5).

                24. Christ would be Buried by a Rich Man (Isaiah 53:9; Matthew 27:57-60; fact stated, prophecy not quoted)

                25. Christ would Rise from the Dead the Third Day (Matthew12:40; Luke 24:46).  No particular passage is quoted from the Old Testament for this.  That Christ would rise from the dead is definitely quoted in Acts 2:25-32, from Psalm 16:10-11.  Jesus said it was Written that He would rise the third day (Luke 24:46).  Jesus must have had in mind Hosea 6:2 and Jonah 1:7, and Isaac being released from death the third day (Genesis 22:4).

                26. Christ’s Rejection would be followed by the Destruction of Jerusalem and Great Tribulation for the Jews (Matthew 24:15; mark 13:14; Luke 21:20; Daniel 9:27; 11:31; 12: 1, 11).

              Jesus Himself realized that in His death He was fulfilling the Scriptures (Matthew 26:54, 56).  While He was hanging on the cross, John 19:28 tells us that Jesus was concerned about prophecy being fulfilled… “After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.”

              John 19:30 states: “When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.”

                Your "evidence" is so weak it is laughable. Let me ask you, say there was a massive ark there what is more likely? some people built a massive ark for a long journey and it was left there or an old man got every type of animal (even penguins and polar bears and stuff somehow) and got them on ship and that is the one we have found? The very idea is ridiculous and the most basic assumption is to say great there is a big boat there, that does not prove a thing. As for your prophesies I have seen better from palm readers and astrologers, which by the way I am also supposed to murder.

    I just think for myself.. I've done alright. Never needed a bible or anything to tell me how to live my life. If it really is my own life, shouldn't I be the one to choose which direction to take it?

      Who Gave you your unique DNA, finger print, voice pattern & retina design?

      Who Designed your heart, brain, liver, kidneys, eyes, ears, nervous system, bone structure, marrow, blood, immune system - PLUS, the subatomic structure of each cell in your body?

      Who Designed the star systems, the planets, gravity, the fundamental facts of physics?

      WHO Created the humming bird and the giraffe and ALL THE CREATURES?

      ALL, birds, fish, animals, insects, flowers, trees, EVERY UNIQUE FACE OF MANKIND?

      This planet earth in space and the moon and the seasons and all the food this earth produces.

      IF YOU SAY THIS ALL EVOLVED BY CHANCE AND ACCIDENT, then sorry erickcb, BUT that is NOT ONLY INSANE, but ALSO requires a very WARPED "type of faith."

      It's rather like expecting me to "BELIEVE" that the entire computer networked system of the planet TODAY, happened ALL ON ITS OWN, WITHOUT ANYONE DESIGNING IT OR ANYONE BUILDING IT.

      It all kindda "magically" appeared all by itself...

      Our PERSONAL server network system (for example), and my entire family's collection of ipads, ipods, smart phones and mobile phones, CLUMPED all together, COMPARED with just the design and structure of ONE OF MY EYES, is like comparing the head of a pin with Jupiter. (my eye being Jupiter for those sarcastic readers)..

      YOU GET THE PICTURE ???

      [b]Now read The Truth - † GENESIS ONE TO SEVEN HERE † :-[b]

                Do you honestly think it would be that hard to find an ark that was big enough to house multiple animals of every species on the planet?

                That thing would be ten times the size of the titanic. Out of wood? lol

                    The wood alone would have taken a country just to gather. Then you have the carving and shaping of the wood, by one man, that would take a freaking lifetime by itself. Then you have to gather 2 of every animal we have in existence (except the cockroach because they survive anything). I don't see it being possible in one lifetime. At least not with out some heavy technological or magical help.

    Elijah: Where do you REALLY expect to get with all this? People are so stubborn and that is the way your god made them. Live and let live. Come on. I think if your god was so mighty he would be able to fight his own battles right?  In my eyes, MY EYES, life is made to be taken in with fullness, experimentation, wonder, and choice. An infallible guide on who and what you should be, limits your existence. Humans have the capability to imagine, create, feel, connect, and comprehend all of life's richness and wonder. Self awareness is necessary for all of these incredible gifts. Looking at life through scripture make you miss out on a lot of it. Freedom, happiness, and peace do not come through faith. You must go out there and make it happen. With all due respect to you and your opinion, I do not think you will change anyone. Live and let live.

                Why don't you step back, take a breather, and focus on casting Christianity in a positive light instead of...this?

                Thanks to people like you we have an uphill battle just convincing non-believers that Christians are tolerable people to be around. Let alone getting them to respect our beliefs, let alone having a chance in (*cough*) hell that they might ever consider adopting them.

                  Hi Eric - TIME'S running out.

                  The WHOLE Point is simply that True Christianity SAVES SOULS.

                  Saves them WHAT ???

                  Their SINS - Yea....

                  JESUS Warns EVERYONE about Hell MANY, MANY times.

                  WHY do you think he ALLOWED them to Crucifiy Him ????

                  ANSWER : So He Could Resurrect, Ascend and THEN Send Forth The Holy Ghost to EMPOWER The Great Commission :-

                  TO SAVE THE SOULS OF ALL WHO WILL BELIEVE

                  JESUS Proved EVERYTHING.

                  False science TODAY is "trying" to destroy The Works Of Christ and His Father - IMPOSSIBLE OF COURSE !!!

                  Nonetheless, multitudes are BLISSFULLY unaware of The Real FACTS.

                  Hence this short web forum discourse to PRESENT The Full Gospel,
                  HOPING, that some people MIGHT just re-visit The Greatest Truth Of The Ages - FOR THEIR OWN BENEFIT.

                  After all, what have they got to LOSE ???

                  Hmmmmmmmm........

                  Their SOULS.....

                  So, thanks for your concern Eric...

                  TRUTH is TRUTH...

                  JESUS is Alive Right NOW.....

                  This IS The POSITIVE LIGHT - Glory !!!

                  Amen

                    Why were Moabites cursed and yet Jesus was one? And why did God tell Jeremiah that only when his covenant with the day and night was broken could anyone but Levite Priests give his ministries, yet his "supposed" son was not a Levite?

          Nah. Ill leave the fables alone. The story of Jesus has been told many times over throughout history. It is merely sun worship. Sorry to be the one to break it to ya. i think for myself. Ill trust in the fact that a true benevolent deity gives life and life only. What you choose to do with it is your choice. The bible is ridiculous. Trying to contain man's freewill? That is a joke. Screw God, Jehovah, Yahweh, Allah or whatever you call him. He's the abuse father who is afraid of his own children. Gimme a break. My "God" is much more than some loser like that. The "Word" contains ZERO life. Just based of experience ya know.

              What a nice little white sheep. Let's sacrifice it for ol' Jehovah here. I hear he really gets his rocks off when there is innocent blood spilled in his name. Another question though how is guilt a virtue? Seems that is the only way to "heaven." See cause' when you were born, you weren't perfect enough for heaven. You had to get your head squared first. Then u get dunked underwater, like that is some super spiritual thing. Its one big placebo if you ask me, how does going underwater make you worthy of anything? This religion sucks. Its all talk talk talk. Read this line, this verse, and you will become "virtuous" in the name of the Lord. Great memorization skills IS the WAY! the YAW WAY! get it? Its backwards. I learned that from these ''virtuous'' men who love JESUS! They seem thrilled to worship God.. Then when you get high enough, leave the lower orders they really tell you who you have been worshiping all along... I'll leave the mystery to those who wish to journey far enough into the system. But anyway, funny thing is, all those "sinners" who are damned; all the people you hate, seem to all have one thing in common. Common Sense. Better yet Elijah, if you ARE correct, and the God of the bible is real, and all the stuff in the bible is TRUTH, I'd side with Lucifer. I would rebel in the name of Freedom from a sadistic tyrant.. 
              I hope one day you become alive. I do like your quote the Jesus guy supposedly said, because in ways, some the teachings of the New Testament hold truths. To have life more abundantly doesn't mean following a religion to a T. Trying to follow the bible "religiously" is insanity to me. It just has too many contradictions to what I deem common sense. The mystery is solved for you when you realize Jesus told his followers there is life in ME. NOT the written word. You get life when you look at things as they are and use your ...excuse me.. god given common sense. Then you have life.

        Elijah7posted 11 years agoin reply to this

        Good question !

        ANSWER :

        Acts 11:25-27

        Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul: And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch.

        And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people.

        And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.

        And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem unto Antioch.

        THEREFORE, a True Christian IS a Disciple Of JESUS Christ The Lord.

        A Disciple Follows his Master.

        A Disciple ADHERES to The Teachings of his Master.

        You can't "adhere" IF you WON'T learn !!!

        You can't Learn if you WON'T Believe.

        You can't believe WITHOUT Faith.

        WITHOUT Faith it is IMPOSSIBLE to Please GOD Himself !!!!

        CONCLUSIONS :

        1). Demonations (sorry Denominations) are a JOKE.

        2). A True Christian IS a Journey, NOT destination.

        3). The ACTUAL Destination CANNOT be Reached, BECAUSE The True Christian RECEIVES "Everlasting Life" - THAT MEANS ETERNAL LIFE.

        4). For The True Christian DEATH NO LONGER EXISTS. Just a change of "Tabernacle" OR, Being Alive In THIS ONE, When The Lord Returns.
        (VERY VERY SOON i must add)...

        5). The True Christian THEN Spends 1000 years (minimum) ALIVE AND WELL on THIS Planet earth, AFTER God Returns. OH Yes, JESUS Is God in the Form of A Man - THE PERFECT MAN. He is approximately 2012 years old (give or take 14 years worst case scenario).

        He's RIGHT NOW, not that nice young man with long hair (or whatever), He was ONLY 33.5 years Old When he PHYSICALLY ASCENDED.

        Nay Danny - HE LOOKS JUST LIKE HIS FATHER....JEHOVAH

        Ooops - BETTER WATCH OUT !!!!

        Everything ELSE Required is EITHER In Writing IN THE NEW TESTAMENT....OR, Directly Given By THE HOLY GHOST HIMSELF in the Cases of Christian souls in "dark places on this earth" where Most Holy Bibles ARE BANNED.

        Start Reading !!!

        Start Believing FULLY.

        When The Time is Right - GET BAPTIZED - THAT'S it - Alleluia & AMEN.

      It's testimony time in a conservative evangelical church. One man raises his hand and is offered the microphone. He stands and speaks.

      "I was a sinner," he says. The rest of the congregation murmurs their amens.

      "I was an atheist. Greedy. Selfish. Blind to the words of God."

      He becomes overcome with emotion, and takes a moment to compose himself before continuing.

      "But then one day, God sent an angel to me. Out of the blue. And green. And magenta. He spoke words that were hard to understand, especially the yellow-on-white text. But what he said rang with truth, and I was compelled by the Holy Spirit to fall on my knees right then and there!"

      The congregation's response is fiery. Amen! Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!

      "I banged my chin into my keyboard, but I knelt all the same. I said, 'Dear Lord, thank you for showing me the error of my ways through this technicolor witness to your divine power! I repent of my sins and I accept your grace as freely as I accept the godly power of all caps and underlining random phrases!'

      "And thanks to that, that one beautiful, well thought out post on an Internet forum, my soul is saved and I am a follower of Christ today! Praise Jesus!"

      He wipes the tears from his eyes as he hands the microphone back to the pastor. The congregation gives him a standing ovation.

      Such is the power of scripture and BBCode tags. Combined, they can break the chains around the hardest heart.

      The point Elijah, is not to fear ending up in hell. It is to love and worship a creator who was lonely. Trying to strike fear into the hearts of non-believers isn't the way to go. Yes fear God. But He wants you to love Him. He has done so much for me in my life, I would not be the same without him. He is my rock. Everyone is shaped into people their experiences make them. The bible says "Let the wicked be wicked, let the righteous be righteous." What you really need to look out for is false prophets in your church, or unholy men leading others in His name.

      RE: "Hell"

      The place called "Hell" is in Michigan. It's even frozen over there many times.

      The rest is in one's mind. I know lots of people living in hell in this life. And even if there is an afterlife, how in the hell are they going to suddenly "change" their thoughts just because they died?

      Change your thinking if you don't like the hell you live in. Because it's not gonna get any better once death happens. But if you change your thoughts and get out of your hell, your behaviors will eventually take you to better places. Therefore, God doesn't control hell, nor does any supposed Satan. We control it.

          The Bible IS NOT the oldest history book on the entire planet. In fact, though it has some places and people that are in history, it mostly a work of completely fiction. According to your reasoning though, because Harry Potter talks about some actual places, it is fact as well. The Genesis of Shanarra set by Terry Brooks talks about a lot of actual places just in the United States, so it must also be pure fact. I mean honestly, do I need to go on with this?

      what do you mean by a true christian?

      I'm a Christian and received God's saving grace. I know that everyone is a sinner and no good man who is righteous who didn't sin at all.
      the gospel is simple. Gospel means good news and we all know the good news is that we can be saved through Jesus Christ.
      man, no one could ever tell if a man is a true Christian or not, it will always, always be between man and God.

      I do good things not because I want to earn something but it is just because I want to show my gratitude for what He's done for me.

      I'm not a member of a church, but i will say Im a believer. I'm not afraid for I know God is with me to protect me. Jesus didn't come for the holy but for the sinners and I'm sinner.

      God always reminds us to learn how to forgive. God always forgive as long as you forgive others who sinned against you.



      when i have the opportunity I share to other people the simple Gospel. other religion don't know this, that no man can save his own self only Jesus, we are not save by our good works or by our long prayers only Jesus. Those people from other religion I know that they also want to serve God but religion blinded them with rituals which is not really in the teaching of Jesus. all i do is not to be harsh in sharing just tell the truth with love and respect.

      I'm not a member of a physical church. and when I share the Gospel i'm not the one who recruits people to a church, i approach them like myself.

      still.. patience.

      I have not taken the time to read this thread.

      I merely want to check that the OP masters Aramaic. This would seem to be an essential condition for fulfilling the challenge of acting exactly as Jesus taught. Going by what is said in translation could lead to a lot of misunderstanding. It's bad enough that there are only records of what Jesus is purported to have said, rather than his own writings. Once these reports have been purt through the Chinese whispers of translation, who knows to what extent they mirror the original.

        Understanding that you want to see Aramaic Scripture credentials, I wouldn't expect it. Not from the OP. To be quite honest, all the research I have done doesn't show a single Aramaic manuscript. Everything we have that is compiled to create the Bible is in Greek and Latin. At least that's the understanding I have from my research.

          Some of The Lord's Aramaic Statements HAVE been Preserved.

          The OT is Written in Hebrew (obviously).

          Greek and Latin translations of the Hebrew compliment The Meaning.

          The REAL Point is, that English is today's global tongue.

          God IS Supernatural and Knows The End from The Beginning.

          Hence, (personally) The King JESUS Bible in Old English, with some time, study and a good dictionary, SAYS EVERYTHING.

          Meaning, He Planned for The New Wave from the 17th Century into NOW.

          So, we really DON'T need Greek, Hebrew, Latin nor Aramaic, because The Scriptures ARE in most every spoken tongue on the planet today.

          True Preachers NEED to Know what they are talking about however, which is one good reason for the collapse of the catholic dark age.

          Those guys LOST THE PLOT a very long time ago.

          Without THE FULL GOSPEL, "weird doctrine creeps in".

          This is the hallmark of Vatican intransigence. Clearly, popes, cardinals and the catholic "latin" shakers and movers, are NOT reading The New Testament.

          OR they ARE and REFUSE to "Upgrade" to The Full Truth...

          Either way, these Scriptures are Illustrative :-

          † Mark 5 : 40 - 42 †
          "And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying. And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise. And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment."

          † Mark 15:34 †
          "And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted,
          My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

          The ninth hour being 3.00 PM israel Time today.

          JESUS was Quoting from Hebrew Written some 1000 years earlier :

          † Psalm 22 : 1 †
          "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
          why art thou so far from helping me,
          and from the words of my roaring?"

          In Essence, Because JESUS Is God as The Man, the "man" Side of Him was On The Cross ALSO.

          Hence, a Moment of natural concern borne of PHYSICAL AGONY, as the SINS of ALL OF HISTORY (Temporally Speaking) were Placed Upon HIM.

          Put ANOTHER WAY : "JESUS Is Still THERE THEN, Here Now. Time and Space ARE Transcended By THE SPIRIT. The ACTUAL Crucifixion Of Christ will FOREVER Remain in another Dimension. JUST Like a moment ago, that is NOW Passed and CANNOT be physically returned unto. Time Travel is SPIRITUAL, hence PROPHECIES FULFILLED - Amen & Amen"

          In ANY Event, JESUS Physically Ascended Back To Heaven with HIS BRAIN. He FOREVER Holds that MEMORY RIGHT NOW - Literally.

          So, EITHER Way, mankind has Full Access to Salvation ANYTIME ANWHERE - Hallelujah !!!


          † Galatians 6 : 14 †
          "But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world."

          † Psalm 12:6-7 †
          "The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever."


          Behold The SEVEN PURIFICATIONS :

          1). Hebrew. 2). Aramaic. 3). Greek. 4). Latin. 5). German. 6). Ye Very-Olde Aenglishce. 7). Elizabethan English, Perfected by AD 1770


          Zephaniah 3 : 8 - 9 † (Written - PROPHESIED around 620 BC)
          "Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy. For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the LORD, to serve him with one consent."

          The NAME of The Lord TODAY, Is Indeed JESUS Christ - Amen

          1 Timothy 1 : 12 - 17

          "And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

          This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

          Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.

          Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen."

      Obviously you have a problem with anyone disputing anything you have to say and automatically jumped to ill advised assumptions based on that.



      Who stated that all seas are determined by salt content? I was under the impression that they were bodies of water, not bodies of salt.



      According to you, because this one supports what you have to say, it is the only right one. More specifically, because this link backs up what you have to say, your continuously referring to it. For you information, there have been 7 (perhaps more by now) Ark's that fit everything this article says. This is why scholars have rejected any one of them as being Noah's Ark. There are simply too many of them to account for the story to be undeniably the only way things happened.



      First off, I'm not "programmed" for anything. My reasoning, does not come from the "evolution theory" either. I have my own speculations as to life on this planet and where it came from. Like many other scholars I have no proof, but I do speculate and it runs contrary to both evolution and to the biblical creation story. That is my personal choice though and I don't have to explain it to you or anyone else.

      Referring to evolution as evilution is a kids play on words. What are you 5?

      Remove the hundreds of years of fantasy? What fantasy? I was raised and indoctrinated with Biblical teachings. Then I hit the age of reason and went contrary to proverbs and developed understanding of my own. I find too much wrong in the bible for it to ever be right.

      Throwing this link in a second time for good measure? I caught it the first time, no need for a second go around.

      I've actually followed the works of the scholars on all of the Ark findings. I thought at the time that it may be one of the few things that could bring me back to christianity. Unfortunately it was big let down after they found the same things over and over and over again.

      I posed a question to you, explain to me how Jesus was of a cursed bloodline, and while acting as the word of God, swore that only Levite Priests would ever be able to give God's ministry, and yet when born was not born a Levite and was born into the cursed bloodline on top of it?

        Thanks for your reply Einder...

        i don't HAVE a problem.

        JESUS Took Care of ALL of my problems a LONG TIME AGO.

        Unlike "many other scholars" i HAVE The Proof - "We" have The Proof.

        The SALT-water referred to earlier IS THE WHOLE OCEAN.

        That's all that was meant - ONE GIANT MARINE BODY OF WATER - naught else.

        Sorry 'the age of reason" destroyed your "Faith"...

        VERY un-REASONable if it !!

        Not my fault - i am THE OPPOSITE of that.

        i REASON according to REALITY; according to EVIDENCE;
        and this ALL By Faith, that BECAUSE we are HERE NOW,
        God IS Real.

        Any alternate explanation for Reality is UNREASON-ABLE.

        So, God Gave me The Most Holy Bible and HE OPENED IT UP Like a Virtual 3D Movie...

        This was in Hawaii in 1985.

        Prior to this, i BELIEVED By Faith ALL the Famous Historical Accounts of The Old & New Testaments.

        God MET me EVERY TIME, right were i was, and continued Working with me, UNTIL THE WHOLE PICTURE, past, present & future was COMPLETE.

        During those 27 years, God also worked with a multitude of other people LIKEWISE...globally.

        AND has been doing The Very Same Thing, since 4000 BC...

        YES, this ONE IS The Real Ark.

        You CAN HAVE your Christian Faith Restored NOW.

        Not ONLY the Ark. The Red Sea Crossing Site CONFIRMED. Sodom, Gormorrah and the burnt out cities of the Plain - CONFIRMED.

        The REAL Mount Sinai in NNE Arabia - CONFIRMED.

        The Global FLOOD - CONFIRMED.

        The Baptism Of The Holy Ghost - CONFIRMED.

        The Perfection Of Holy Scripture - CONFIRMED.

        i really DON'T want to blow my own trumpet,
        so will say this ONCE ONLY :

        i AM a fully documented natural genius (inventor of some 37 new products for the commerical world) - CONFIRMED.

        i AM a fully documented Visionary - REAL VISIONS OF THE FUTURE - by the multitude, since 1974 - CONFIRMED.

        i AM a writer, designer, artist and public speaker - CONFIRMED.

        i have had HUNDREDS of "journies out of the body" documented - CONFIRMED.

        my life has been SAVED on multiple occasions from BEFORE birth - July 1956 through to NOW - CONFIRMED.

        i have MET God and JESUS in The Spirit with ONE physical encounter
        in January 1985 in Hawaii (The Big Island) - CONFIRMED.

        Anyhow - enough of that.....

        Point is, you can TRUST me !!!!

        i WILL NOT LIE to you NOR anyone - CONFIRMED.

        FINALLY, the Answer to your last paragraph question is SIMPLE :-

        JESUS Broke Mary's Virgin Womb from the INSIDE.

        Her womb was NOT penetrated by Joseph.

        Hence, JESUS was Born ONLY of a Mother (physically).

        The Father of JESUS is The Holy Ghost Himself.

        ONCE you grasp this - EVERYTHING ELSE slots into place.

        No MAN as a father, Translates to "Christ BROKE the bloodline Curse of Sin in HIS OWN Perfect Body."

        The lineage you spoke of above, was simply a family chain unbroken in the Genealogical Record from Adam to Mary & Joseph.

        The Hebrews were COVENANTED to Maintain DETAILED RECORDS.

        ONLY JESUS was Born SINLESS, because the SIN is transferred through the MALE BLOODLINE, not the female.

        The woman is simply a VESSEL for the MAN to plant the seed in that grows into a baby and then a person.

        Joseph was JESUS' "step father".

        HENCE, Every Documented Miracle JESUS Ever Performed.

        JESUS Is God, Visiting this earth ONCE as Man.

        Trust me when i SAY - This Is The Gospel Historical, Supernatural & Factual TRUTH of this Entire Matter - Amen

        All that is left is for YOU, and you, and you and all the doubting Thomases of the world TODAY, to Believe this.

        The MOMENT you ACTUALLY Start Believing This, WITHOUT DOUBT, By Faith - GOD will Visit you, EXACTLY like He has with COUNTLESS multitude millions upon millions upon millions, down through His-Story.

        Today, there are perhaps around 2.7 Billion people that WOULD NOT deny that JESUS is Lord, The ONLY Begotten SON of The Living God,
        from EVERY walk of life. From EVERY Tribe & Tongue, across ALL denominations, from the weakest (doctrinally) to THE VERY STRONGEST.

        The CROSS - Indeed IS the Most famous Spiritual Symbol in ALL of History...

        Pasue for a moment .....

        JESUS was only in an Active, Walking, Talking, Healing, Preaching, Teaching, Miracle Ministry for 3.5 years until AD 33.5

        This is AD 2012 (give or take a few years - no big deal)....

        Take a LONG geopolitical and Spiritual LOOK at The Nations UNDER THE BANNER OF THE CROSS.

        Not too shabby for 3.5 years work !!!

        Point is, Christ WROTE The Whole Bible, BECAUSE He Is The Word of God.

        The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

        And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me. And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

        No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.


        AMEN..

        No more arguments please....

        JUST BELIEVE - Amen

        Love and Truth In Hope....

      In all of this, you've only managed to call Jesus a Bastard (born out of wedlock) which was a Jewish Sin and never would've been permitted. Other than that, your yet to explain how he is not a Levite Priest and yet is allowed to give the Ministry of Jehovah. We know that Joseph was of David's Bloodline, but unless Mary was as well (incest) he has no blood link to the House of David and there for could not have been the Messiah. As to where the Levite Priests come from, they were the sons of Aaron. The same Aaron that helped Moses. His bloodline was established as the priests for God's ministries for all time, by Gods own infallible decree. You can jump to all the suppositions you want, but the bible spells things out, and everyone is skipping right over top of them to see only what they want to see.



      Let me share a personal experience of mine with you here. I have already died once (yes legally dead of 10 minutes) and did not experience the tunnel. I was surrounded by nothing and I was at peace. Then there was a soft but bright light and a FEMALE voice told me I had to come back, that I wasn't finished yet. Then I woke up like awaking from a dream. Explaining something like that to your significant other when they are crying their eyeballs out because you were dead is one of the hardest things to do I've ever experienced. This just went to enforce my lack of belief in Christianity. There is suppose to be a paradise or hell and Jesus was a Male and God is male and all that other nonsense was irrevocably denied by this experience. Personal experiences make up our realities and beliefs for us, and this was a personal experience of mine that kept me away from Christianity for all time.



      There are around 2.1 billion people that accept the Christian faith, true. However, how many of those people were converted by so called "missionaries" who refused to offer help or aid unless they pledged themselves to this belief system? You or someone else will probably fire back with missionaries don't do that, however my uncle is a missionary. One of their requirements for giving aid to people is that the people attend their services no matter what. I also submit the 1,000 years or so the Church spent wiping out other religions and other ideas. When in fear of your life, you'd do most anything to save it, even when Christian. It's well documented for instance, that during the which trials, the Church promised swift execution to those who admitted they were witches when charged. If they didn't, they tortured them until they lied and admitted it. Many PRIESTS wrote that these people were lieing just to get a swift execution. That same swift execution would preserve their families of the torture, if they hadn't been tortured to get the lie of a confession in the first place.

      Actually, the cross is not the most famous symbol. Most everyone knows of Madonna and Child which has nothing to do with christianity at all. Just as the crucifix that is so popular, doesn't actually represent Christianity. I don't expect you to know this though because you probably have not dedicated anytime to studying symbols what so ever.

      Yes, let's take a long look at all the nations the Church conquered with massive blood shed and promises of hell and damnation. Best to look at how those nations came to that then assume that it was something always held true.

      Christ didn't write the bible. The bible in fact wasn't written until many many years after his death. The earliest manuscripts we have at all come from after 200 A.D. The oldest Bibles we have are in greek and come from after 400 A.D. Spouting this because you believe it, doesn't make it stand up to the facts that we do have.



      I'll consider believing again when someone can explain to me, without some roundabout answer, why Jesus was not a Levite, and was able to give the ministry of God. The intervention of God and the Holy Spirit don't hold water. It's directly stated in the Bible and people are ignoring it. Explain it without going roundabout stating well God this and the Holy Spirit that. Technically speaking, for your answer to be correct, you would have to break God's covenant with the Day and the Night. That act alone would make God's word fallible and would throw everything into Chaos, if not reverse it completely.

                Ahh so your not going to even attempt to answer how Jeremiah was told one thing by God himself, and then the New Testament states something completely different? Figures, I haven't met anyone yet who could give me an answer without the logic of "Well God changed his mind." Which as stated before, doesn't hold water.

                CONFUSE - you mean !!!

                Hebrews 8 : 7 - 8

                "For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:"

                Jeremiah 31 : 31-32

                "Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:"

                AMEN - The New Covenant IS The New Testament - AMEN

                      When God said that lest his covenant with the Day and the Night be broken, this covenant could NOT be broken, he made the covenant permanent and for all eternity. If even he broke this covenant, he would break his own covenant with the day and the night.

                      Now what you keep implying, is that he broke the covenant (which makes him a liar to begin with) and then kept his covenant with the day and the night, which means when he made the covenant to begin with, he was lieing.

                      All you keep doing is circling around this. You keep quoting the New Testament to me, and not only the new testament, but something from the new testament that takes place AFTER Jesus. So your outright lieing just to try and make a point that you can't possibly make. Your yet to explain without the circular logic of God or the Holy Spirit decided to change thing (and thereby break this covenant) why this covenant was broken. Why was Jesus not a Levite? Why did Jesus not offer burnt offerings? Why did Jesus not perform Sacrifices? Why did Jesus not Kindle meat? These are things directly from God that was sworn would always be so with those who gave his ministry, before the time of Jesus. Yet the only evidence you offer, from anywhere in the bible, comes well after the time of Jesus and is not withstanding.

        According to The Historical Record, JESUS was NOT a "bastard" :

        Matthew 1 : 18 - 20

        "Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

        Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.

        But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost."


        AND :

        Luke 2 : 4 - 6

        "And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered."

        ED - ALSO, The MOST Critical Point EVERYONE mIsses, BECAUSE IT IS MIRACULOUS, and The Old Testament is FULL OF MIRACLES, is simply this :-

        Joseph was NOT the father of JESUS.

        The Father Of JESUS, Is The Holy Ghost Himself, AS PROPHESIED In Micah and Isaiah.

        Until you UNDERSTAND and BELIEVE this, there is NO Point in Continuing with the Subject of The Lineage of The Lord.

        NEVERTHELESS, The New Testament IS, in Every Way, a Historical Record By Faithful Eye Witnesses, in like manner as The Old Testament.

        This Prophecy WAS Written some 742 years BEFORE The Lord JESUS was Born Again :-

        Isaiah 7:14
        "Therefore JEHOVAH himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel."

        Immanuel Means "GOD WITH US"...God AS THE MAN. The Messiah. Christ Himself....

        THIS IS THE HEART OF THIS ENTIRE FORUM DISCUSSION.

            To Continue ED, re: your last paragraph :

            QUOTE : I'll consider believing again when someone can explain to me, without some roundabout answer, why Jesus was not a Levite, and was able to give the ministry of God. The intervention of God and the Holy Spirit don't hold water. It's directly stated in the Bible and people are ignoring it. Explain it without going roundabout stating well God this and the Holy Spirit that. Technically speaking, for your answer to be correct, you would have to break God's covenant with the Day and the Night. That act alone would make God's word fallible and would throw everything into Chaos, if not reverse it completely.

            ED, you are talking about this :

            Jeremiah 33 : 19 - 21

            "And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season; Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers."


            In Hebrew culture, grandsons, great grandsons, and so on, were regarded as "sons" in the future context.

            NOTE :

            Hebrews 7 : 1-7

            "For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him; To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace; Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually. Now consider how great this man was, unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils."

            "And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:"

            But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises. And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better."


            The Apostle Paul was CHOSEN to be Radically Converted BECAUSE, when he was Saul :

            1). He was a Pharisee.

            2). He was murderer of Christians and a Church PERSECUTOR.

            3). He was a Roman citizen.

            4). He was born a free Roman citizen. His freedom was not purchased with money, like many others in his day.

            5). He was ZEALOUS of The Law.

            6). He "thought" he was "RIGHTEOUS".

            7). He THOUGHT he was "correct" and doing "God's Work" in shutting down that "Radical Sect" that was turning the Jewish and Roman world UPSIDE DOWN.


            The Lord CHOSE him, because he was the PERFECT MAN for the job.

            The Holy Spirit THROUGH The Apostle Paul WROTE HEBREWS ABOVE.

            Now, David Wrote this :

            Psalm 2 : 7-12

            "I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel. Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him."


            AND AGAIN :

            Psalm 110 : 1

            "The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool."


            NOW HEAR THIS :

            Matthew 22 : 41 - 46

            "While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The son of David. He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool? If David then call him Lord, how is he his son? And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions."


            FINALLY :-

            Bethlehem was in the Province of Ephratah IN JUDAH

            This is where JESUS Was Born, As The Man, of THE VIRGIN, as Prophesied.

            Your question ED, is VERY GOOD, and was ALSO Posed by THE JEWS around AD 50.

            HERE IS THE FINAL ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION :

            PLEASE READ VERY CAREFULLY :

            "If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

            For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.

            For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.

            For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.

            And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,

            Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.

            For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

            For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.

            For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.

            And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:

            (For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)


            By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.

            And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:

            But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.

            Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

            For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;


            Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.

            For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.

            AMEN & AMEN

              So you said all that Just to tell me that God was lieing and is therefore fallible and not truly divine at all. Next time just cut to the chase in saying that you agree with me and the bible is full of crap.

              And for future reference, what I was referring to specifically is Jeremiah 33:17-22 which reads "For thus saith the Lord; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually. And the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah, saying, Thus saith the Lord; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be a day and night in their season; [Then] may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers. As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me."

                  Firstly, I am reading. Your just not. I cited 5 verses, not 2. So that people didn't get muddled, I made sure that the verses were posted since you seemed ill equipped to do so.

                  Secondly, my post contained now foul language. You seem to be highly IGNORANT of that FACT.

                  Now, to address the issue of me ignoring posts, I haven't ignored anything. You've clearly made NO ARGUMENT WHAT SO EVER that Jesus was Levite, and therefore qualified to give God's ministry, or that the covenant with the DAY and NIGHT were both broken so that Jesus could give the ministry. All you've managed to do, was try and reassert that only the New Testament has any authority which makes God a liar and fallible. Once again, you've done absolutely NOTHING to clarify the issue, you've only tried to muddle it further.

                  Lastly, unless you can give something to clarify this issue, then please do so. Just because you CHOOSE to be IGNORANT of what the BIBLE says, doesn't mean that the rest of the world does.

                  You want to continue name calling that's fine, I can do it if you want. Now if you look at my post this time compared to others, you notice that I've done what you try to do and stress words. However, unlike you I don't do it to muddle things or try to make others seem ignorant, I do it so I can get my point across.

                    "Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah. In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land. In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness."


                    Which days are The LORD referring to?

                    NOTE : He refers to JUDAH Also...

                    Who is "THE BRANCH" ???

                    "And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:"

                    Jeremiah 23 : 5

                    BEHOLD THE BRANCH, THE SON OF DAVID IS THE KING OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, THE MESSIAH, THE CHRIST, THE LORD JESUS HIMSELF.

                    BEHOLD AGAIN, THE NEW TEMPLE IS NOT MADE OF STONE NOR WOOD, OR GOLD.

                    THE NEW TEMPLE IS THE TRUE CHURCH FOUNDED BY JESUS UPON THE CONFESSION OF THE APOSTLE PETER (Petra, The Rock) - AND JESUS HIMSELF IS THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE - THE ROCK OF AGES.

                    Here IS The Conclusion of this Matter from THE Messiah HIMSELF - AMEN :

                    John 15

                    [SPOKEN over 1000 years AFTER King David's Day]

                    1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

                    2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

                    3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

                    4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

                    5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

                    6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

                    7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

                    8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

                    9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

                    10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

                    11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

                    12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

                    13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

                    14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

                    15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

                    16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

                    17 These things I command you, that ye love one another.

                    18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

                    19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

                    20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

                    21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.

                    22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin.

                    23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also.

                    24 If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.

                    25 But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.

                    26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

                    27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.

              The immaculate conception has been proven to be a case of mistranslation. I wasn't going to say anything about it, but since your brought it up, I feel it's important to point out that the word Almah, which is incorrectly used in Matthew to mean Virgin, and is there by incorrectly used when translating Isaiah, actually means young woman. But again, you think you know everything.

                Elijah7posted 11 years agoin reply to this

                Archaeological findings show that the Hebrew word "almah" refers to a virgin. The possibility of a virgin birth is upheld by open-minded Jewish sages and scholars, even those who are not believers in JESUS.

                The commonly held view that "virgin" is Christian, whereas "young woman" is Jewish is NOT TRUE. The fact is that the Septuagint, which is the Jewish translation made in pre-Christian Alexandria, takes 'almah to mean "virgin" here. Accordingly the New Testament follows Jewish interpretation in Isaiah 7:14.

                The Septuagint is the translation into Greek of the Hebrew Scriptures, made for the benefit of Greek-speaking Jews in Egypt. This is the version that translated "almah" as "parthenos," which means "virgin."

                Some have discounted its value, claiming that except for the Torah, the Septuagint is a Gentile Christian translation. However, that is NOT THE REAL TRUTH OF THIS MATTER !!

                    On the Torah portion of the Septuagint:

                    It is known that the project was initiated by the Greek-speaking Jewish community itself, which needed a version of the Pentateuch for worship and instruction.

                    On the Prophets and the Writings portions of the Seputuagint:

                    It is confirmed that the versions of the Former and Latter Prophets must be placed before the end of the third century B.C., and that at least some of the Hagiographa were already translated at the beginning of the second century B.C., since the prologue to the Greek Ben-Sira (132 B.C.) refers to an already existing version of "the Law, the Prophets, and the other writings."

                    -- "Bible," section "Greek: The Septuagint", Encyclopedia Judaica.

                ...From Ugarit of around 1400 B.C. comes a text celebrating the marriage of the male and female lunar deities. It is there predicted that the goddess will bear a son....The terminology is remarkably close to that in Isaiah 7:14. However, the Ugaritic statement that the bride will bear a son is fortunately given in parallelistic form; in 77:7 she is called by the exact etymological counterpart of Hebrew 'almah "young woman"; in 77:5 she is called by the exact etymological counterpart of Hebrew betulah "virgin". Therefore, the New Testament rendering of 'almah as "virgin" for Isaiah 7:14 rests on the older Jewish translation, which in turn is now borne out for precisely this annunciation formula by a text that is not only pre-Isaianic but is pre-Mosaic in the form that we now have it on a clay tablet.

                -- "'Almah in Isaiah 7:14," Journal of Bible and Religion 21 (1953), p. 106.

                Mary WAS a True VIRGIN. JESUS Broke her Womb "FROM THE INSIDE"

                NOTE :

                Luke 2:23

                "(As it is written in the law of the LORD, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;)"

                AND THIS CLOSES THE MATTER :

                Matthew 1

                18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

                19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.

                20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

                21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

                22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

                23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.


                This is NOT just about a mere translation of words.

                RATHER, The Historical Record REVEALS that Joseph was CONTACTED IN A DREAM (very common).

                In The DREAM, God (through His Angel) EXPLAINS that Mary is PREGNANT By The Holy Ghost HIMSELF - Amen & Amen & Amen

                  Now I finally understand that you are completely running in circles. You have no answer what so ever to my question that you continually avoid because you know I'm right. Then you run around claiming the bible is fact. Then you run around claiming it's allegorical. Then you run around claiming it is fact yet again. Then you quote from sources that are not in the Bible to make claims that support your theories. You also quote from Jews and Christians with no quotes from anyone outside of these circles making the same claim. Seems as if you are completely lost and confused and in no fit shape to try and lead anyone anywhere. Rather than continue to have you running around in circles, and since I don't feel like citing a bunch of non Christian or Jewish scholars, I think I'll just end this here. It's become extremely obvious that you have nothing but excuses to back up any of your claims and nothing worth continuing the argument over either. Though I will leave you with this for your own consideration.

                    Apologists, both Jewish and Christian, claim that the Holy Spirit inspired men to write down God's words. The Holy Spirit cannot contradict itself if it is real, for God does not contradict himself.

                    They WILL also agree with me on The Fundamentals.

                    Yea man ... The SAME LORD God Who WALKED In The Garden of Eden.

                    Go argue with Him about His Holy Son - Jeshua (Yeshuah) "YES, You ARE" The Lord...O Holy Christ Messiah - JESUS....

                      Ahh, so anyone with a differing view than yours, you automatically can't read, yet you come here, to a place full of differing views to spout your nonesense?

                      For future reference, a spirit is sexless. It doesn't have a penis swinging between it's legs, nor does it have vagina sitting there. Therefore, it's and IT and not a HE or a SHE. Of course, I expect you to continue to be ignorant of such things now.

                      The Holy Spirit is NOT God if it acts independent of God. The Holy Spirit impregnated Mary (according to you), and the Holy Spirit moved upon the face of the deep, and the Holy Spirit goes into people, not God. God stays in heaven the whole time. Or did you not realize that your religion is polytheistic and not monotheistic?

                      As for your math, it really really sucks. First off, people number in the billions, not millions. Secondly, it's not 2.7, it's 2.1. Thirdly, even most of those are NOT fundamentalists like you, it's less than a fraction of those that are. Lastly, I'm hardly out numbered. I'm not the ONLY person saying these things, I'm just the only one saying them to you. As you are a SINGLE person and I am a SINGLE person, it's only a matter of 1 vs 1.

                      As for loving the Hebrew Folk, well, people seem to be truly ignorant, and I place you highly among the Ignorant. Perhaps if you read more?

                      I didn't say what they meant, I only said that one means something when the other doesn't. Emmanuel means exactly jack squat. There is no meaning to it anywhere in the known world. Yet Matthew chose to use this word when describing the events in Isaiah. In Isaiah, you come across Immanuel, which means "God With Us". Read a bit more carefully next time please.

          4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

          5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

          6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

          7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.

          8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.

          9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.

          10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.

          11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.

          12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.


          Isaiah  52 : 13-15

          "Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high. As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men: So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they consider."

          Isaiah 16 : 1

          "Send ye the lamb to the ruler of the land from Sela to the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion."

          THESE ARE PROPHECIES FULFILLED BY THE LORD JESUS CHRIST ALMIGHTY SOME 283.5 YEARS AFTER THEY WRITTEN, IN THE HOLY NAME OF JEHOVAH, JESUS AND THE HOLOY GHOST, GOD HIMSELF - AMEN & AMEN

      THERE ARE NO INSTRUCTIONS TO BECOME A "CHRISTIAN"
      There are scriptures describing aspiration to reach for, and knowledge we will fail at meeting those aspirations (sin) and directions on how to be successful as the daily sinners that each and every human is.
      I have Faith in those directions.
      You obviously think the word "Christian" means something in the realm of what was taught and later written.
      It is your actions toward others.
      Like Randy stated, you just shot yourself in the foot when your ability to teach a lesson come into play, you are unarmed.
      Pray for understanding, a key thing in life for most everything.
      peace out

            Many have suggested such, but obviously it has not been considered by HP.  This is rather surprising considering their proclivity to mimic FaceBook and other social media forum features.  smile

            Too much togetherness and agreement among the common members may be undesirable to a business such as this.  It is better to keep people divided with favoritism and cliques than have them complain in great numbers.  We can't take it personally, it's just business!    lol

            I'm down for a toilet lever for flush along with the agree/disagree button.
            When they hit the flush lever and reach a set number of 2 gallon flushes, the whole thing goes into a swirl

              I agree, Dusty!  The toilet lever button would be really neat, especially if it had a flushing sound to go along with it.  I believe simply clicking this button would act as a form of therapy for some of us.  smile

      This can be a tough question.

      I was raised Christian. The rest of my family is either Catholic or Christian, for the most part. I know the basis of the faith. Honestly, being "religious" in any shape or form is not my thing. I don't think "God" is a realistic things anyways.

      Also, people tend to "humanize" God. If he is an all knowing, all powerful entity, wouldn't he have more important things to do than be angry.

      Another reason I am not born again is because I don't want to deal with the people who say "You can't be a Christian because you are gay!" Why should I worship a God who doesn't love me for me?

      Lastly (for the moment) God is not realistic or logical.

        God HATES Sin and LOVES the Sinner....

        Mark 5 : 2 - 13

        "And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces:

        neither could any man tame him. And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.

        And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many. And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country. Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding. And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea."
