1  Theology / Prophecy - Current Events / Re: North Korea threatens New York, Washington on: October 12, 2006, 07:40:13 PM
:)I think it's amazing what man can do and this just proves it.  Just think about what it would be like if a nation who could do something like that would turn their eyes on Jesus.  We need to pray for the leaders of that country.  We also need to pray for the leaders of our won country.  President Bush is trying so hard to do what is wright for our country, but things like this make his job a whole lot harder.  We need ot pray for him to have godly wisdom, and we, as a people, need to make sure we support his decision even if we don't like it.  WOW!!!  Cool

3  Theology / Debate / Re: IS BUDDHA A SERVANT OF CHRIST if not then why is he described in the BIBLE on: July 30, 2006, 10:43:57 PM
You can't be a servant of Christ if you are being worshiped.  There is only one God.  Buddha does not glorify God so there for he cannot be a servant of Christ.

I think it would depend on your age and the woman's age.  If she is 20 years older than you I think you should send a older woman.  I also think that if you are a guy you should send another woman.
5  Theology / Debate / Re: Heaven or hell? on: July 30, 2006, 10:33:41 PM
I think that God looks at each person and makes a decision.  I think that if the boy has never heard of God or his love then God will look at his life style.  Did he live the type of life that was pleasing to the Lord.  I don't believe that He will punish someone because they had no way of knowing.  I think He would punish us before He would punish the boy because it is our job to preach the word of God.
6  Theology / Debate / Will you go to hell... on: July 30, 2006, 10:23:31 PM
I was hanging with my Grandmother and she has an interesting view on things.  She says that there is no such thing as a Christian rock group.  She also believes that you can't worship or praise God at a rock concert.  She says if we go to such things we are going to hell.  I think she's just crazy, but I was wondering what you think.

 :)I am going to keep this simple the Bible says chose you this day who you will serve.  Once you die your chances are over.  Here on Earth is your only chance. Cool
8  Theology / Debate / Re: Salvation Contradictions? on: July 22, 2006, 12:31:15 AM
James 2:19- You believe that there is one God.  Good!  Even the demons believe that - and shutter.   

There is more to it than just believing.  You must have faith.  With faith you must have deeds.  Look at James 2:14-26.   

In Hebrews 11:6 it says- And without faith it is impossible to please God, because antone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that her rewards those who earnestly seek hi.   

I am not going to try to tell you how to interpret the scriptures, but if you cannot believe what one part of the Bible says then you can't believe any of it.  Talk to others and decide for yourself.
9  Theology / Debate / Re: The Rapture....does it matter to me? on: July 22, 2006, 12:09:56 AM
 8)I think that the important thing is that we know it is coming and are prepared.  I think that it is important that we know what is going to take place during the tribulation in case Christ does not rapture us before it starts.  I think that the time of the rapture is irrelevant.  If God wanted us to know the times or date He would have had it written in His book. Smiley

 :)Well, Thank you for that welcome, blackeyedpeas.  I really enjoy this website.  I hope that I don't offend anyone by being so blunt in my posts. Cool

Read: Leviticus 19:28 do not tattoo your self.
  I believe that in this passage god is saying that we aren't to get tattoos that are evil or have ot do with the dead.  I see nothing wrong in getting tattoos that are appropiate.  I know a guy who uses his tattoos are a form of ministry.  He is reaching people that you and I may not  be able to reach.  I say if you want to get a tattoo then do it with wisdom! Cool
12  Theology / Debate / Re: Abortion Poll For Christians Only on: July 01, 2006, 07:12:38 PM
 Smiley  Abortion is murder.  God said DO NOT MURDER.  There for it is a sin. Cool
13  Theology / Debate / Re: Most Haunted on: July 01, 2006, 06:43:30 PM
 Smiley  Not to be mean Mr. John, But you are a fool for watching these things.  You said yourself that the Bible says that we aren't to mess with things like that, and yet you are watching shows that promote it.  Not only are you watching it but you are allowing your sons to watch it.  Things like that are dangerous, even if they are just TV shows.  How old are your sons?  You tell them that things like witch craft and demons are rea and evil, but teens are curious.  We love to explore things taht are mystical.  We see things like that show on TV and Satan uses our curiosity to trap us.  By watching this show you give them the message that the things on this show aren't so bad.  Would you tell your sons that sex outside of mariage is wrong and then go and let them watch things that say that it's ok to have sex whenever you want?  It may just be a harmless show now, but sooner or later it can and will become very dangerous.  Like I said I am not trying to be mean, but where in the common sense in what you are doing.  Cool
14  Theology / Debate / Re: abortion and homoperversion on: July 01, 2006, 06:02:35 PM
 Smiley  I think that homosexual marriage  is wrong because He, meaning God, shows us that this is sin, no matter how you look at it.  God shows us this in many ways.
When you read the Bible, you realize that God made marriage to be a sacred union between man and woman.
When we hear God talking about marriage or two being joined together He always refers to man and woman.  When He told people what to write in the Bible He gave many commands to the humans of the world.  He told children to honor their mother and father.  He could have said honor both of your mothers or both of your fathers.  But, He did not.  When we read Proverbs, we learn that a wife is to submit to her husband and a husband is to love his wife.  Now, again we know that God could have said wives submit to your wives or husbands love your husbands.  Even after that in Matthew He says that a man is to leave his mother and father and become one with his wife.  There are two very important things said here, first it says that a man is to leave his mother and father.  Not leave his mother and mother or father and father.  Next, it is said that he will leave his mother and father and become one with his wife.  Never once did God say that he will become one with his husband.
We are to follow Jesus’ example and I believe that means his parents.  So, we look at Joseph and Mary (they were Jesus’ parents) and they were man and woman-not homosexuals.  Then in the book of Ruth we find that there was a couple, named Boaz and Ruth.  They loved the Lord and were man and woman.  And again in Genesis we have Adam and Eve who may not have always pleased God, but they did keep the covenant of marriage and were man and wife.   
So in the third book in the bible called Leviticus chapter18:22 Gods says that man should not lay down with man.  Later in the same book in chapter 20, verse13 God says that if a man lies down with another man, he is to be put to death.  That tells us that he strongly hates homosexual marriages.  Though after that, thank you Lord, God sent His son.  This child lived to be 33 and had no faults.  Except this man was beaten, forced to carry a heavy cross up a huge hill, had nails pounded into his wrists, and God set the weight of the world’s sins on Him.  The Son of Man died a terrible, but God raised him to life.  Jesus willingly chose to suffer and give His life so that we would not have to go through that kind of death for our sins.  That means that the homosexuals should not be put to death for being a homosexual.  that is not saying that it is ok to be a homosexual and need Jesus in there life.  God should be the one who judges them and decides their fate in heaven or hell.   
    God gives us the two most important commandments: 1st is to love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength.  The 2nd greatest commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself.  God shows us how to do this in spite of sin.  This is the whole of Christian salvation – God himself loves His children in spite of their sins.  He did this many times while He was in human flesh.  Just like with the woman at the well and the Pharisees and Sadducees.  He showed us many of examples of how to treat others.  He was angry from time to time but never hateful – even to those who were hateful to Him.  Further, Jesus states that sin is wrong no matter what it is.  One sin is just as bad as the others – all sin breaks the relationship between God and man.  From this, we understand that homosexuality is no worse that any other sin.  Even then God would never want us to be hateful to anyone, even homosexuals.
   Although gay marriages may be wrong, the way to help them realize that this is not to bash them, but to show them the light of Jesus by letting His light shine through us. 
I think that Homosexuality is wrong, I don't think that it is up to us to decide there punishment.  Cool
15  Theology / Debate / Re: Does Paul Contradict Himself ? on: June 30, 2006, 09:58:06 PM
 Smiley  God gave the law, so the law must be good.  I think that in general Paul says to follow the law, but it is not the law that saves you.  Back in his day there were people who thought that if they upheld the law perfectly then they would go to heaven.  What he is trying to say is that we are to follow the law unless it contradicts what god said in his word.  Paul says in Romans 7:13 that the law is there so that we will reconize sin as sin.  I don't know if any of this makes sense, but those are my thoughts on the matter. Cool
