Hello Little One.. :)\n\nMy brother Scnheb is correct..it is a matter of your heart..\n\nTitus 2\n\n3  The aged women likewise, that they be in behavior as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;\n \n4  that they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,\n \n5  to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.\n \n============================================================\n\nI do agree with you sweet little sister, a woman is not to dress as a man (pants).. :)\n\nIn Jesus Most Precious Name..\nWith Love..In Christ..

I agree fully.  It's the Spiritual principle behind self-examination and the Sacrament of Confession/Absolution.  I think it's more that agreeable....I find it absolutely necessary!

I think that many will never stop and the only time they are going to believe is when they bow the knee to Jesus in judgment before being cast into the lake of fire. :o(\n\nThat's why we've got to keep praying for the Holy Spirit to remove the veil of darkness and deliver people we know into the kingdom of light, in Jesus' name, Amen!

Absolutely. I believe with all my being, that Jesus Christ is present, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity in the Blessed Sacrament.\n\nI stake my soul on it, every day at Mass!

Absolutely, O Hobbity One! I have things from all sorts of faiths. That's why I call myself a Non-Denominational Happy Pagan Person. God and I have a promise that we keep religion out of our relationship...it just mucks thing sup if we don't...heh heh heh. Tea?

I concur.  I feel like adherence to a prescribed moral principle removes personal responsibility.  I've felt that way (only perhaps less eloquent!) since I was eight.  If you are a good person because you adhere to the Bible / church values unquestioningly, you aren't actually a good person.  You are only truly good if you are the person choosing your own behavior.  I think fundamentally it boils down to manners - in greater or lesser dimensions.

I agree with you completely, my brother.  I am a Christian, and I do NOT serve a god of cruelty and slaughter.  I serve the true, living, eternal God, the source of all love and compassion and mercy.  Thank you for your question.

Yes. It is important to find out for yourself the truth. I prayed long and hard about what I had been taught from childhood. I studied the scriptures and prayed about them. Then answer I got was the most wonderful feeling that everything I read and was taught was true - I KNOW beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is true.

I believe and by looking at most of the Christians of today, there you see the answer. I believe not because i was told to but because I have experienced it myself. So who else can dispute my personal experience but me because even if I'll say that it is so, I cannot force others into believing. The Holy Spirit ha guided Christianity into the light that have shown the exact truth. The truth that each Christian may choose to follow or not. Sure there are still those who fall short of expectations and there are those who refuse to open their eyes from the truth. But what really counts is that Christianity has advanced to a certain level where peace and progress have been a part of who they really are except for a certain few who have continued to pursue their twisted concepts, aspirations and selfish goals in life and others just can't handle it. Maybe the gift has not touched them yet.

The answer to your question is a resounding, yes, and He still does.  He is NOT dead.  He is Resurrected from the dead.  No other human that has ever existed throughout all history can claim this act.  This is what differentiates Jesus as the True Messiah, as truly Divine, while all others are fakes, imposters and mere men.  \n\nAlso, since He now exists, you have the privilege to call upon His Name, and He will audibly answer you.  If you desire in your heart an actual relationship with Christ, He says, "Knock and I will answer," for he is the Door.\n\nIt amazes me how people today are so skeptical and jaded that they are actually preventing themselves from acquiring "wholeness" in Christ.  That was the whole purpose behind His Redemptive Deed upon the Cross, to reconcile us (our fallen sin nature) back to the Father.  He is our Salvation.  His resurrection created a Door through which we may re-attain in us what was lost by the Great Primordial Fall when we became divorced from God (the Great Divorce).  The process of accepting Christ Yeshua (Jesus) as your personal Savior is a “Rebirth” where you are spiritually “rewired” and “reconnected” back to the Godhead of Father, Son and Holy Spirit through Christ’s ultimate act of Love, the giving up of His mortal life for your sins.\n\nFollowing is the proof of Christ’s existence and divinity:\n\nWhy believe in Christianity over all other religions? \n\n         Critics often ask why Christianity is any better than any other religion in the world.  After all, of all the religions that exist how can it be that only Christianity is true?  If God exists, why can't God use different religions?  Don't all paths lead to God? These kinds of questions are asked all the time of Christians and unfortunately the answers aren't always very good ones particularly when dealing with people who have a relativistic truth base and don't believe in absolutes.\n     Therefore, in an attempt to demonstrate why Christianity is true and all other religious systems are false, I've prepared the following list of reasons for Christianity's superiority.    \nThere are such things as absolute truths \n     If truth is relative, then the statement that truth is relative is an absolute truth and would be self defeating statement by proving that truth is not relative.  But, if truth is absolute, then the statement "truth is absolute" is true and not self defeating.  It is true that truth exists.  It is true that truth will not contradict itself as we have just seen.  In fact, it is absolutely true that you are reading this paper.\n     If we can see that there is such a thing as truth in the world, then we could also see that there can be spiritual truth as well.  It is not absurd to believe in spiritual absolutes anymore than physical or logical absolutes.  Even the statement that all religions lead to God is a statement held to be a spiritual absolute by many people.  This simply demonstrates that people do believe in spiritual truth.  Why?  Because truth exists.  However, not all that is believed to be true actually is true.  Therefore, all belief systems cannot be true since they often contradict each other in profound ways. \nReligions contradict each other; therefore, they cannot all be true. \n     Mormonism teaches that there are many gods in existence and that you can become a god.  Christianity teaches that there is only one God and you cannot become a god.  Islam teaches that Jesus is not God in flesh where Christianity does.  Jesus cannot be both God and not God at the same time.  Some religions teach that we reincarnate while others do not.  Some teach there is a hell and others do not. They cannot all be true.  If they cannot all be true, it cannot be true that all religions lead to God.  Furthermore, it means that some religions are, at the very least, false in their claims to reveal the true God (or gods).  Remember, truth does

At this point.  thanks for confirming the word I got from Holy Spirit a few moments ago....be back later, possibly much later.  I do cherish some relationships I have formed with believers and 2 people I saw saved.  But it is becoming harmful.\n\nBlessings,\nDavid

The true church (Eph.5:27; Acts 20:28) still exists today! Only a few (Matt.7:14; Eph.4:14)people are in the one flock today. Yes, many have wandered away from the truth(Acts 20:29-30; Col.2:8) and established their own righteousness(Rom.10:3). The few(Matt.22:14) that God called out (2Tim.1:9)of 2nd Babylon(confusion) are in (Eph.4:4; 1Cor.1:25-29))God's Church today. The gospel is being preached today, but only few will accept it!\nLook what Matt.7:21-24 says!\n\nThe true church isn't the Catholic Church. It doesn't preach or teach the true gospel of Rev.14:7-12. Mostly it is called the Beast or Anti-Christ in Revelation. The protestants came out of her, but still follow her(Rev.17:5). \nClues: "sits on 7 hills"= Rev.17:9;  "claims to be God"=Dan.7:8; Rev.13:1; 17:3; 2Thess.2:4; \n"has thought to change law of God"=Dan.7:25(General Catholic Catechism) and "cast all truth to the ground"=Dan.8:12.\n\nIn Encyclopedia--I looked up the Catholic Church or Roman Catholic Church or Sunday---I forgot. But anyway; it tells you that it destroyed the 3 Arian tribes which are spoken in Daniel 7:24. But anyway there's alot of clues that the Catholic Church is the Beast of Revelation and not God's True Church. I have tons of information on these subjects in-\nhttp://community.webshots.com/user/morrisonmcdf1

Yes, I do and I am very thankful that He died, to free me from sin, even through he gives me free will to choose.  I am grateful for his grace and mercy, and do not listen to people that do not know God.  The Devil is a LIE and the Truth is not in him.  Eternal life is what I am looking for and I know that this world is not the one that I want to stay in, but to live eternal with God is the way to peace and freedom.  Thank you Jesus for your love and I pray for others, that do not know you and and hope that they find their way to you.  And God Bless this child that made this statement and keep them on the path.  This is not because I am holy and without sin either, it is because I believe and I know where Jesus has brought me from.

I agree and it's foolish where everyone claims they are the right way, "join us and be save"; "no salvation outside this church" and some other lying propaganda to feel superior among the rest of other religions. There's no truth in it because the only truth and way is Jesus Christ (John 14:6). God has religion I believe like it says in James1:\n27 Pure RELIGION and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. \nI think what God wants for us is to follow HIm his way not our own way.

I believe no matter what religion one is or is not, it is God that matters now and in the end. I "respect" all faiths and beliefs.\nGod Bless
