Excellent story kingbee..... faith in action. By this good Samaritan's actions this man was restored. You will not find any argument from me, in fact I believe that we are to act accordingly. What angelamarie has brought to the discussion is not this only good deed, but a greater need. If the man restored unto health had never came to the knowedge of Christ, then the life, death and resurrection of Christ would have had not purpose, at least for him. H
I've never felt compelled to stand on a street corner and shout, "Repent Ye Sinners!" Ha. Nor have I angelamarie88, but to silence an individual's testimony of Christ is completely against the teaching of Christ. I guess what I'm trying to say is that even as a believer in Christ You did say you were a beliver in Christ, but maybe not His word? AngelaMarie88, would our society think it strange
In the book of the Revelations chapter 11, The Spirit of God revealed to John the Revelator the coming of two witness that will prophecy during the Great Tribulation Period. The Word of God says these two witnesses will prophesy for 3 ½ years. When they have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and
Is capital punishment Non-Christian? We’ve all heard it before……… Eye for eye, tooth for tooth. Turn the other cheek He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone. So where does all of this fit when we are talking about the law/government’s responsibility in protecting a society? “For the rulers is not a terr
In Isaiah the Lord rebuked a society in which the princes (rulers/government) is rebuked for not protecting the needs of the fatherless (orphans) and the widow (elderly). Isaiah 1:23 “thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: everyone loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doeth the cause of the w

Yup, you are a hateful SOB, and you've managed to delude yourself and your family. You've got everyone duped. You're a lowlife liar. And now you're trolling for affirmations and pats on the back. You really are not only hateful, but you're also totally deranged. moderateman, are your feelings really that delicate? After all she was honest . Remember.... sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will ne

Jesus Loves Me. If you knew me before I accepted The Christ, you would say, how in the world could anyone love him? Thanks for the post dharmagrl. preacherman
Eternal Life, Almost? A friend was telling me about an article that was posted on the Live Science / Human Biology Hang in There: The 25-Year Wait for Immortality The article states that we are approximately 25 years away fr
'Jesus' carries any kind of divine meaning, Quite the contrary my friend, If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are all men most misereable, but not only in this life but the life to come. <T
Gideon posted an article “Religions of Peace” excerpts from this thread can be read Link My take on the article was that religions, whether they be Catholic, Islam, the LDS or Protestant could do many good works if they applied their abundant resources to feed the hungry and clothe the poo

To paraphrase Crowley Ah.... a familiar name, Crowley as in Alister... to paraphrase his god.. for thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above t
Humans, all of us, are so like mercury, we seem to not have the ability to be constantly reliable. We are not steel and velvet, we are more like clay and tin, unstable from within. If it were not for Him, no hope would exist on this little blue dot. I listened to the disciples talking to the Master after he mentioned that he woul
Go look at the pretty blonde boys in bedsheets; or go watch such feeble nonsense as 'Highway to Heaven' and 'Touched by an Angel'. You've only to do these things in order to see what it is that has taken the place of the Celestial Killers and Monsters the prophets knew, an iconography that has been emasculated - castrated in favo
EOIC- Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward; how shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation which at first began to be spoken by the Lord and was confirmed unto us by them that heard them. God bearing them witness, both with signs and
But he said that his Christ wouldn't like him! Even more the reason to be the reciptient of His mercy and forgiveness.... no soul will want to be His enemy. preacherman
I must agree EOIC- Ezekiel's discription of the angelic beings is quite unusual and somewhat bizarre, but then again we only give credience to their discription with human intellect. I have never heard of your faith? Ritual Magickian. Those fewer still who have read and paid attention will also know that I am a Chaote deriving inspiration from the tradition of Thelemic Ritual. One aspect of that tradition that has inspired me fr
Nice article Gideon. I read last Friday when you posted it an have been thinking about off and on every since. The Catholic church is an organization with abundant resources. The same could be said for the Islamic faith, the LDS church, many Baptist and Methodist churches within the US, and many more I could probably mention if I were inclined to research them. If these churches were to apply their resources to feed and clothe the hungry
Take heart my brother, the darkest time is just before the dawn. I realize that we are the enemies of the world...... but I don't understand why iconoclast blacklisted me. I have tried to apologize and even called him friend. he requested that I not call him friedn any longer? <TABLE
