    The 'evil' in the Old Testament

    Nope! Although it would be a nice thought to say hell does not exist or that its really not as bad as the Bible makes hell out to be, the truth is Hell is Fare worse for the unbeliever than human words can ever describe just as heavens description does not really do the believer justice either...

    Quran Burning is a Sacrilegious Slap in the Face of Christ

    Is that the best you can do? I guess that proves my point. You assume there is bitterness when other Christians and myself are trying to give awareness. If you want to believe that something is false because its the ugle truth then I have nothing else to say to you. Obviously the message was...

    The 'evil' in the Old Testament

    It's quite evident throughout the Bible that God does not want people to go to hell. He has given everyone an easy way out but why do you rebel against God? He gives free will and offers everyone the gift of eternal life even though a person can spend a majority of their earthly existence...

    The 'evil' in the Old Testament

    Guava, I just want to say I really like you, but I still haven't figured out what Hand your playing. I believe you have a sincere genuiness to the word of God but what you say is conflicting with the word of God more often than not which leaves myself and others wondering why? Maybe you have a...

    The 'evil' in the Old Testament

    There are two different types of death you are relating, the physical body and the spiritual and they are not the same thing. Bible talks about the first death which all human beings will experience, but those who believe and trust by faith in Jesus will not be harmed by the second death...

    Quran Burning is a Sacrilegious Slap in the Face of Christ

    Funny you should say that; you disagreeing with the evidence that I provide, that come straight out of the Qur'an and other writings sacred to Muslim but yet you fail to provide any of your own evidence to support your claims. your view is based on your opinions and not any sort of facts. So...

    Quran Burning is a Sacrilegious Slap in the Face of Christ

    If I was to regard the Qur'an as a holy book, or the teaching of another religious book as holy than what does that say about the meaning of the word "holy" or the "Holy Bible". The point is I don't regard any writings other than the Bible to be Holy, if I make a comment about a non- Christian...

    Quran Burning is a Sacrilegious Slap in the Face of Christ

    So in that case what did the Muslims (your friends) say about how one would inherit salvation? What is the answer for "non-terrorist" believers? As I agree you can't beet the bible over a persons head to make the Gospel known but on the other hand its not going to happen based on a persons good...

    Quran Burning is a Sacrilegious Slap in the Face of Christ

    I will have to respectfully disagree. First off Muslims do not believe that a personal relationship with Allah is possible. They do not believe in the Trinity, they believe Jesus was Just a prophet and Muslims don't believe in the Holy Spirit. Their religion is based on do's and don'ts, it...

    Quran Burning is a Sacrilegious Slap in the Face of Christ

    I agree that if a Christian is going to share the Gospel with a Muslim the first thing that would probably prove to be helpful is to dissolve the false teaching about Christianity found in the Qur'an. If you can convince a Muslim that what their religion teaches is not true than that may help...

    Quran Burning is a Sacrilegious Slap in the Face of Christ

    I guess if I was trying to generalize the meaning of the word terrorism to try and bring the actions of terrorism on the same plane as the action of fighting in self defense and defending your country against a group of people that seek to destroy it, then maybe what you said might make more...

    Quran Burning is a Sacrilegious Slap in the Face of Christ

    If someone was worshiping the Bible (physical Book) and not God or Jesus than I would say that person would be better off without it. But if a Christian does not worship the physical Book of the Bible, and worship is directed solely at God and Jesus than the Book becomes the primary source of...

    How does Jesus act?

    I would say the Beatitudes is a good place to start when trying to understand how Jesus would handle types of adversity and some of the things Jesus expects from his followers. In the book of Romans; Paul, also gives good insite on the transformation that takes place in the believer that frees...
