"that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God" UNLESS they accept Jesus Christ!

George, I'm guessing everyone's "just about" running out of those stock-piled canned goods by now :biggrin: ...at least a lot of food got donated to organizations that needed it!! :cheesy:

No pain, no sorrow! AWESOME love!! and happiness!! AAaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh :biggrin:

I'm "PAN-TRIB"...., however it "pans" out I'm going with Jesus! I'm with Carl~"PAN-TRIB"~that RULES!! :biggrin:

I haven't noticed that at all~but, I'll keep my eyes out for it...and-WHY would they sell stuff, cuz~~we aren't exactly going to BE here, now are we?

Thanks, Keith! :cheesy:

irwin--I would have NEVER figured that icon out!

I will do the same.

Thanks, Irwin, for the sweet words..and completely away from any subject whatsoever: could you explain your little icon pic? I can't figure out what it is-can you tell me? HEE :biggrin:

"no more tears" what an AWESOME thought!!!!!!!!!

"Communicating with the dead?"--the question first posted: to that question, I say NO. I do not believe you can communicate with the dead. period. To the other question:"appear in certain circumstances/possible to feel spirits?" I think in some cases, God has sent 'visions' (if you will) to comfort those who are left. I have heard stories from those who truly believe that at the moment / close to the time where their loved ones died, they did "see" them.

Bob said it: God is fair and just-WE are not...

Personal reasons for believing in God: All I have to do is look around at nature-the very essence of it all~~from a sand grain or a snowflake to the mighty oaks, oceans, mountains~~it all is so overwhelmingly breath-taking~the sheer vastness of the universe...undisputably AWESOME!!!

ooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhh, bad, Levi, bad!! (of course, I LAUGHED!) :biggrin:

no I can't seem to remember my 'regular' dreams lately...

Bob, Thanks for posting Romans 12:3 "I am free from doubt"!!

Thanks, Lana... I think it all comes down to this: there just "seems" to be more and more people who are not "in Christ" and I am feeling a sense of urgency (well, 'almost felt'a sense of urgency)-I have been praying about it. I know God will never steer me wrong!! :biggrin:

["How important is Jesus to you?"] He's the reason why I'm still alive today: otherwise, none of us would be saved and what would be the point of being here?

Bob, All this "last days" talk is scaring me! I AM saved and I believe Jesus saved us-I KNOW he did! Still, despite ALL, I still get scared when I read of / hear of "last day" signs...is this normal? I mean, it is such a scary thing to me..any thoughts?

Bob, You are exactly right!! Unfortunately, sometimes there seems to be WAY more evil out there than good! <sigh>

Thanks to ALL of you for your thoughts, advice and verses!! I think the REAL question for me, is:

This is unnerving...just the beginning of the end..just the beginning...

Are you just wanting comments here? Sometimes just posting articles leaves me with the question of "what do I do with it?"... I think anyone who has lost a limb or who have been paralyzed from stroke, nerve damage has a ray of hope. I think God allows humans to discover things all the time. I see this as a positive!

An AWESOME AMEN, Wisdom!!

Hello all, I am struggling-BIG TIME!...some have tried to "guess" at why I've said that phrase before--funny, I am ready to say why now. First, though, in one of the threads, someone said "Sin is always the cause of our pain and anguish."
