You disgust me. Don't respond because I won't read it, you and your preaching shit are now firmly on my ignore list. If you find happiness and a sense of purpose in Religion then :cheers2: to you but once you start pushing your beliefs onto other people like a stubborn child then your as bad as those psychotic crack head bums ranting about aliens on the corner of streets...actually no, your worse than that, at least they're humourous.
Sorry, finals were crazy, I was only posting in the real casual sorta threads. Moral stability, confidence, a sense of contentment, a feeling that you are a part of something greater, an internal locus of control, a sense of power, a sense of responsibility. Of course, I would warn them. If they didn't want to listen though, that would be their prerogative. I wouldn't stick around preaching to them as they got angry and yelled back at me or pushed through me - I would move onto the next step and find a phone. Cool. I'm not trying to be insensitive or unkind, but I find I must say that I find it kinda interesting that you are preaching the word of this book, yet you can't even answer questions of your own faith without outside help.
No worries, apologies here too, I was occupied with other things as well [/QUOTE] Moral stability, confidence, a sense of contentment, a feeling that you are a part of something greater, an internal locus of control, a sense of power, a sense of responsibility.[/QUOTE] Sounds good, sounds like what we are all seeking... but I mean there was a time in my life(before I did drugs) when I was "happy" with life, was popular in school, good at sports, good grades, etc. and didn't really have a relationship with God.. and I mean it seems great and all of that, but it is not eternal happiness. period. I mean even now, I LOVE like the things of this life: a good meal, friends, family, music, etc. and mostly that is fine with God, but in His word He talks about HIM being the Bread of Life and the Living Water, that LASTS FOREVER. Alls those other things are NOT eternal, and until we realize we are in desperate need of a savior we will just coast through life "feelin' good" [/QUOTE] Of course, I would warn them.

When people walked away from Christ He did not chase them down, He let them leave. BUT I'm not convinced that every one on this forum has turned fully from Christ. If I thought every single person on this forum had turned from Christ, you would not find me being an ambassador of the Kingdom here any longer. [/QUOTE] Cool.

I'm not THOROUGHLY studied. I go to Bible college(first semester), I read the word, and I go to Bible studies, AND I do NOT have all the answers. But I still know He is God, I don't have to have it all figured out. He loves my faith.
Oh, Example of why I am going around preaching Jesus when I'm not super studied in the Bible... When Jesus Healed people(I know you've read it brother) did they like go and study the word a bunch and try to figure it all out? No, they usually just ran around telling people they had been healed. That's sort of what has happened with me.. I got set free from coke, alcohol, pot, ecstasy, cigarettes, pornography, suicide, depression, and probably a few other things.. why would I want to keep that to myself? I have the joy of the Lord, I love God, and I want people to know! My heart breaks for every one that does not...
yes Jesus loves you. and you can come to him. to all the new-agers out there.. you are seeking spirituality, and for that I commend you. what you don't realize is your soul is on the edge of being lost. In the past 9 months I have done 4 deliverances(did one yesterday) on BORN AGAIN CHRISTIANS who use to do witchcraft/blackmagic/new age lameness. What is a deliverance? Get a bunch of Holy Ghost tokin' Christians together and beat the hell of satan. Castin out devils. what other evidence do i need?
JESUS ALREADY WUPPED SATAN!! you can worship him all the way to hell or you can repent and dance in heaven!! its up to sweetheart.
I believe he may have been a real man. As for the rest, we are all the son of god. I don't believe Christ was any greater than any other person in any way. He was simply passionate for his cause. That is, if he existed.
No. No. And, no again. I believe he lived and spread nice messages to people, but I don't consider him a god, since I am an atheist. He was a good man, though. Unfortunately, Christianity got corrupted from its original meaning.
i believe there was a good person who could be called christ but he was in no way greater than anyone else as i'm atheist
