So, then, what is the Hebrew name for JESUS? If you are Hebrew, call HIS name in Hebrew.

Whether you call HIM as HE is called in Hebrew or as HE is called in French or as HE is called in any other language, JESUS CHRIST is one and the same...yesterday, today and forever. HE is the way, the truth, and the life! He died for the sins of the world and lives to save. The power to save souls is in HIS hands.

HI AM JARK BARTON,HAVE SINGLE FOR SOME YERAS NOW.....AND since then have n,t found an honest woman,I really want an Christianity woman who really believe in god...oops you are here I will be glad if u could message

All religions reflect their followers attempts to understand their own lives, and to make sense of existence itself. Calling them TRUTH or calling them nonsense, are equal acts of self-blinding ignorance, usually driven my struggles with one's own ego.

Christianity as it is today, was built up by it's adherents, over two thousand years, with all sorts of motivations playing a part from one time to another.

It is common in difficult times, for people who feel powerless, or for people who want more power over others than they already have, to declare the existence of Magical Controls in the world. It is important for those reacting to this to understand PEOPLE AND THEIR MOTIVATIONS, more so than to try to make sense of the magic bits on the stories they tell.

If all you do it to reject all if it, you are closing your mind to understanding the world of other humans around you. At the same time, if you select one religion and slavishly follow it, you are actually enslaving yourself to the motivations of the other humans who built that belief system, whether you are willing to accept it or not.

Yahowsha.

His Hebrew name is his only name. I'm harping on this same point over and over again because it's a common misconception and it's a lie.

If I went out with you and we were holding hands while walking down the street and then I said "hey, I love you" and then proceeded to call you by the name of another woman wouldn't you feel immensely disrespected?

Reference Exodus 20:4-7 from any translation.

I know this isn't a very intellectually stimulating conversation. If anybody wants to hi-jack the thread and maybe steer this in a different direction please feel free to do so.

You would be correct ma'am...about the military part anyway. And I guess Jark is his nickname

Google Image Search is the bees knees

Wanna hijack this thread??

well, what makes you so right and them so wrong and vice-versa? are there many gods and everyone is right and wrong at the same time? is a point of view worth killing over?

The way i see it, its not a matter of what these people believe as so much why they believe.

Religion aside, if you believe in an ideology so fanatically and put in so much emphasis on wanting everyone to believe in the same thing, no matter what the cost, then even the slightest contradiction to it can end up in violence and killings.

It happens all the time in a variety of issues involving race, gender, politics, money, territory, power...etc etc...Many times, religion/belief or lack of it, since it is deeply ingrained in an individual, is usually the headliner used to sway popular opinion towards a more personal agenda, or manipulate groups of people into becoming puppets with a cause.

just not time yet. best to remember to save your pearls. I am sure u know what will happen to them in the open

What comes to mind when you see big letters in a court that says "In god we trust" or when people swear by the bible like they do in tv-shows.
You have to obey and keep obeying this great hypothetical camera in the sky and let it control you. Doesn't that make you wonder if you're really into this because you're afraid of what might happen if you don't openly announce your conviction or do you really think it to be true?
Do you really think we matter that much?

After all the discussion on here I make one point. If I'm wrong about eternity then we lose nothing but if I'm right think what you will lose and I will gain. end of argument.

End of entirely illogical argument. You're rephrasing the infamous "Wager of Pascal."

It fails utterly. The reason it fails utterly is built into it, though everyone who pats themselves on the back for repeating it, refuses to think enough to notice it.

In order for anyone who DOESN'T already believe as you do, to make good on your religion, they have to trick your God into thinking that they do believe.

They have to lie, and your God has to be fooled. Since all religions these days, claim that their God can't be fooled, and that TRYING to fool the god will instantly land the culprit in hell, your idea is nothing more than you rather nastily crowing about how you've purchased Heaven. In most forms of Christianity, that's blasphemy as well, or at least sinfully trying to speak for god.

Warriorlord48, The fact that see choosing your religion as the difference between going to heaven or hell, thus securing your afterlife whilst watching everyone else who didn't make the right choice go to hell, is a pretty horrible thought.
Certainly not something a loving Christian would think no?
Not that I would know.

Amazing post btw, IgorFrankensteen

I love God with all my heart...but I just have faith...can't call myself a Christian...all I ever see them do is talk how great they are and feel they are gifted with the ability to judge others...if they really believed you would think they would know that judgement is Gods...and I think a lot of " Christians " are going to be surprised at what God thinks of them..it's not the bad people that are going to be upset in the end...it's the "good" people that will be...those of us that are suffering and considered bad by other "good" humans are not going to be surprised if God slams the door in our face...happens all the time by the Christians on earth...it's the
"good" people that are in for a rude awakening...

There's nothing wrong with Christianity, just the way some interpret it.

The Pope himself is more understanding than some of the loony tune comments I've read from time to time in the forums.

...lol...geez..my apologies for generalizing...it's not just Christians that judge everyone...lol..and my response was a tad off topic.. ...guess if Christianity isn't a bunch of nonsense we are in for it...

If god is anything like the bible describes him, I think I'd rather be "in for it" than not. Especially if it's the old testament god.

I cherish this wisdom and knowledge

The seven candle sticks and seven stars is the divine revelation given to John.
