    3 questions on marriage:

    I also believe that your highest calling would be to God, then to your spouse. But God does shine somelight on how important that your spouse is suposed to be. Ephesians 5:22-33 says "Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head...

    The Lost Gospel of Thomas

    Thanks guys. I wasn't sure what to think about it. I wasn't planning on interpreting it as holy scripture, but I just wasn't sure of the validity of the claim it was the "real" words of Jesus.

    Which one?

    The King James Version is the closest translation to the original Greek and Hebrew texts. I use NKJV (The New King James Version) and NIV. I've never herad of KJV2000, but that is basically what the NKJV is. It's the KJV with a more version of the English language. It's also a good idea to...

    How important is the Bible?

    I agree cornetto.  The Bible should be read and respected as the holy word of God (or, as my youth pastor likes to put it, God's love letters to us), but it should not be "worshiped".  This is the same as worshiping any other idol (other gods....or even yourself), which is a heavy...

    Where will Heaven be?

    We will all be lifted into heaven when we die, granted we accept the grace of God offered throught Christ Jesus, until the second coming of Christ.  Then, Christ will set up his kingdom on earth, and we will all be here (on earth) to worship him.  So in a sense, heaven will be in the...
