A clarification: new life form - as in new species. Kent Hovind has (or maybe I should say had, from what it looks like now) one of the best creation web sites on the net. Creation Science Evangelism The online seminar looks like it is still there. I thought that was good.

I have one. I think this was suggested by Ken Hovind. Leave an open container of cottage cheese, peanut butter or what ever you choose sitting out somewhere for a real long time and then check it for new life forms.

I'm sorry nebula I guess I said that wrong because I didn't mean it to be funny or sarcastic. We really do have to guard against Santa

I was thinking of an old song the other day. I have no need of friendship friendship causes pain Its laughter is something I distain I'm not sure what the last line said, but how Satanic is that? How many parents today would object if the their kids listened to Simon and Garfield?

Right! The same is true even if you convert it to propane. I was speaking to a sales person today and she said her father had bought the largest one in stock. He ordered a conversion kit from the manufacturer that allowed it to run on propane instead of gas. This makes a lot sense, for someone who is really serious about it, because most of them will only run a few hours on the with fuel tank that they come with. He also wired it into the house circuit so that any time the power went out it would automatically start. I don

That's good to know. A fairly small generator will run the furnace and a few lights (and a lap top, if I had one), but it won't do much in the way of a space heater.

Three times in ten verses Jesus said

There are a number of verses that speak to this question. I would say the most important of all is that when a person is saved they are adopted into the family of God. 1 JOHN 3:1 Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the Sons of God. A verse that I think is more to the point of your question is the one I referenced above: JOHN 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: This verse speaks of an immediate change that takes place in the person that receives Christ that is that they receive power. Where before they were power-less, being dead in trespasses and sin, they are now made alive in Christ. The word for 'power' in this verse does not speak of force, strength or energy but of choice, liberty and permission. The sinner has no choice but to keep on sinning because he is in bondage. The cross of Christ has broken the yoke of bondage. (This is what sets the Christian and Christianity apart from all beliefs.) So the actual change that takes place in the person's life who receives this power varies. For some who truly want to be free from some particular thing like drugs for example it is sudden and dramatic. However, I think this kind of experience is pretty limited in its scope. That is - where a person no longer has a desire for drugs, they still struggle with the weaknesses that made them susceptible to it. In these areas the changes are more often gradual and progressive. If they do not grow in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord, they may find themselves being again entangled in the yoke of bondage. (Gal 5:1) The sinner has no choice but to accept Christ or die in his sin, the Christian must continue to make the choice to follow Christ . If he is not following Christ, he is returning to the beggarly elements (Gal 4:9) as the dog to his vomit. (2 Peter 2:20-22) Does that mean I think he becomes "unborn"? Except for Hebrews 6, which says of the backslider "whose end is to be burned" and Romans 11:22 which says "they shall be cut off" which continue not in the goodness of the LORD, along with several others, I would say no.

I would have to say my favorite translation, the one I use the most, is the one I carry in my head. For reading though, I use the KJV because it most closely follows my favorite one. Once you know where the pitfalls are, they are pretty easy to sidestep, which is not always the case with less familiar translations.

With the seeming increased likely hood of power outages, 58 million in Italy this week, hurricane Isabel etc. I am asking my self if it isn

You could try the guided mode in the upper left of the reply box. If you can get it to work. What you do is: Click the http:// button; enter the url or paste it in; 'OK'; and the next box asks for the title you want, and all the code gets entered into the reply box. So it looks like this with "[ ]" around it. URL=http://wnd.com]test[/url test I think my above quote from ICR would have gone better in the thread I was just reading about the abomination. The idea of men trying to take heaven by force (which is this thread, I hope) is the very thing Jesus was speaking about John 10 or the solution to it. It follows the very harsh treatment of the man born blind in chapter 9 by the Pharisees. The Masons, the Mormons and the Catholics all follow in the tradition of the Pharisees by elevating the doctrines and traditions of man above the word of God. They are thieves and robbers entering in by another way. The first does it by stealth and the second by violence.

I did browse right it after I posted that. It is a very profitable topic as well. The following came to me today in a daily letter I get from Institute for Creation Research.

Hi Suzanne, warm greetings to you. This is a fascinating topic here. It really cuts to the heart of the cause of much violence throughout world history. I just read a little book I bought on e-bay called Free Masonry Exposed. It details the ceremony one goes through in the first six degrees. From reading it, I would say that Masonry is a form of gentile Jewish ness. Of course they trace their origins to Solomon

One thing I did some time back was visited internet sites of Federal Reserve banks and ordered a bunch of their publications that they send out free. The Bank of Atlanta seemed to have the best selection. Most of the publications can be viewed on the internet as well. Here is quote from "Purposes and Functions":

To me, this is very important topic because I don

I have posted this before but it is pretty cool. The names given for the first ten generations from Adam are: Adam, Seth, Enosh, Kenan, Mahalalel, Jared, Enoch, Methuselah, Lamech, and Noah. All these names have meanings. Here is what they are: MAN (Adam) is APPOINTED (Seth) MORTAL (Enosh) SORROW (Kenan), but THE BLESSED GOD (Mahalalel) SHALL COME DOWN (Jared) TEACHING (Enoch) HIS DEATH SHALL BRING (Methuselah) THE DESPAIRING (Lamech) REST(Noah).

Dear peaches, it seems to me that John 3:16 is about as good an answer to your question (the way I understand it) as there is anywhere in the Bible. I suggest you do some serious study and pray on this topic until you are satisfied that YEWH truly does love you and has made provision for your sin to the extent that you will not perish but are right now an heir of eternal life. Here are two other verses that have been (ARE) of particular importance to me. Joh 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Joh 11:23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again. Joh 11:24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day. Joh 11:25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: Joh 11:26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

My answer to the Jared

This is not very well thought out Yod.

That is good advise.

That is just we read about Hitler doing as I quoted above.

Here is a quote from yod on Dec. 02 2002,10:40 pm in General Discussion Forums

This is cynicism isn’t it? You want a war with Russia!

All right all ready I take it back. I'm just jealous OK?
