I connected with John moreso than any other Gospel. I read it every now and again for a spiritual boost. (I'd like to see a poll on the subject!)

You seem to be implying Marxism is inherently evil, which it is not. Pure marxism doesn't have a "ruler" in the traditional sense, however throughout history dictators have used it for their own personal gain and lust for power so it is easy to get that impression. Communist country's today are...

Well you maybe right, but either way I'm going to eat some nice porkchops later and be content in my salvation.

*Sigh* thats what I meant... *facepalm*

Even if the last part was added later I'm pretty sure that "NOTHING that enters a person from the outside can defile them" is pretty self explanitory dontcha think? How can you be so sure what he was talking about, were you there?

What part of "Read the bible" do YOU not understand. I didn't say he sinned, he broke many laws such as healing on the sabbath, eating with sinners etc. It was a part of his teachings. He was above the law. (there is a specific verse were he says this but I can't seem to find it right now.)

Mark 7:18 "Are you so dull?” he asked. “Don’t you see that nothing that enters a person from the outside can defile them? 19 For it doesn’t go into their heart but into their stomach, and then out of the body.” (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods clean.)

Jesus broke the law constantly, his existence makes the idea of the OT laws obsolete.

I guess I didn't read all the posts, I was mostly going off what i had seen in similar threads. Thats comforting, I want the best iteration of the word I can have to thoroughly embrace gods message.

This is a really powerfull message and I'm going to take it to heart. Even though the world is falling apart we don't have to, instead we need to bear our cross and follow the way. Thank you for this, I'm reading this at a time where i feel like i need a wake-up call.

I notice no one ever brings up the bible I use, it's a NRSV. Is it a bad choice? I find the wording is easy to understand and the print large enough to read comfortably (unlike the other bibles I have) I also have a NKJ and KJ. Which should I use? (the text of the other two is unbearably small).

Thank you so much, it means alot to me. Bless you

Wow, way to suck the glory right out of her vision. If she could feel the divine glory of Christ clearly it was the lord that showed here these. I had a vision once that I was sure a demon sent, but was revealed to be an angel. Because it was a warning I was headed for hell, something the devil...

Due to false charges by the police, me and the love of my life have been seperated. Please pray that we get re-united and that I stay out of jail. God bless

After 6 years, It's time to stop wrecking my body with smoking. So please pray for me that I get through the withdrawls successfully and don't backslide! :) God bless.

Nope, I never felt that there was anything wrong with it until today. I'm not sure what you mean by sleeping with the girl, as in sleeping together at night or intercourse? I don't see anything wrong with the former. We plan on get married and were not having sex... I don't feel like it is...

I went to confessional for the first time today, and the Priest told me that it was sinful for me and my girlfriend to live together before marriage. Our relationship isn't sexual anymore, and neither of us want to split up and live in separate places, nor do we even have the money to do that...

Get a group of friends together and read a few chapters together every week.

WOwww, I asked for help, I didnt expect this. Havent any of you heard "Do not judge lest ye be judged"? None of you know my situation and have no right to call me a sinner. No, were not sexually active, I said we were married because of our loving commitment to each other. To question wether or...

Maybe your right, but we live together and we've been together for over a year so leaving would be too hard for me... She's my girlfriend, just feels like my wife lol.
