Corp,
You need to accept Jesus as Lord and savior, and believe he died on the cross for you, to be able to get into Heaven.
Why did we need Jesus, Old testament God gave instructions on what we need to do to not break His laws. If we did break His laws we would then need to sacrafice a animal...
In response to your first question. I agree that rugby players and fans would not mind if another league was created or if people wanted to play a game like rugby. However if they wanted to start a new leagure and play a game like rugby but they nerfed it, and still claim it was real rugby I...
I do not think we are afraid of anything. One of the major issues is that scripture says homosexuality is wrong and a sin, and that any sex outside of marriage is a sin.
Let me trying using a analogy. As I understand it rugby players and fans are quite dedicated to the game, some look down...
Using the turn the other cheek portion of scripture does not seem to fit well in this situation. Look to Rom 13, we are supposed to follow our goverments lead.
Eon why are you soo agitated by this post?
As for Catholics and Christians being different, people that call themselves Christians are not Catholic, and from personal experience not all Catholics are Christians.
I am very sorry to hear about the large number of people that have turned away...
Another aspect is that as Christians we should not have sex outside the confines of marriage, and also under scripture a husband to have his own wife, and a wife is to have her own husband.
IMO, people with the gift of healing, prophecy, or being able to interpret dreams granted by God I do not think would be showing themselves and trying to make money for what they do. It should all be done to glorify the Almighty.
Corp niether of those things would prevent you from becoming a Christian. More than likely if you became a Christian, those things would work themselves out of your life.
As for dealing with temptation, God told us to flee from it. He did not tell us to confront it or endure it, but to run away...
Ok finally saw the movie, took a couple days to sink in a assimilate, checked the bible to make sure everything I saw was there and so on.
I did not find it in any way anti semetic. I did find it to be a very strict warning to religious leaders to make sure not to let their egos try to overtake...
Corp I think all the Christians on these boards would love for you to become a Christian.
As for understanding the bible, it takes time. Alot of people I consider decent and good Christians are not very well versed in the bible. More over this is why we go to church so we can have someone that...
How is Christianity and God self serving? I know people have used religion in many ways to get things for themselves, please exclude them from an argument they will have to answer to the Lord on those issues.
Eon even though I usually disagree with you, I do appreciate your post and logical arguments. I think they force alot of us on these boards to become smarter and stronger Christians.
God made Egypt that strong just to show that no matter how strong a kingdom is, it can not go against the will of the Lord.
I also think He had Egypt suffer the plagues and judgements to show a precurser to what His judgements will be like in Rev.
As for the game of souls, Satan probably has many more people on the earth. However if you think of the sacrafice Jesus made, all we have to do is accept him into our life and we're in.
Anyone on their death bed, in a fox hole, or even about to be executed can accept Jesus and be in. I don't...
