Joshua-777

NOw alot of these things I've noticed where actualy even pre pagan, paganism started in cains roots, But as far as the massiah, being born of a virgen, circumcision, and alot of stuff you mentioned, Where in fact pre pagan, and in all honestly, where God's before This word was made, yes there is alot of paganism in our society, and alot of things that come from it, but things Christ and his message, Cannot and will not be in any way taken from paganism, cause Josh1:1-2 In the begining there was the word, and the word was with God and the Word was God. 2 He was in the begining with God. What is in the bible, and the what God has established with his people, Was from God, in the begining, Circumcision, was originaly from God, Gods ultimate sacrifice, was from God. Predating our world, predating creation. I would like to know where you got your info on all of this, alot of it I agree where taken from paganism, but some things you named pertaining Gods covenent with isreal, circumcision, Virgin birth, Christ dying for our sins, Where from the begining.

Ok, me and a few other people kind of God a worship, and study time online, Sunday the first and third sundays of the week. It started out we would all 3 way eachother, and do bible studies and worship music, now, what started as 4 people all getting together, now has grown online, to over 20 members, we now go on yahoo messenger, and prepare a sermon also live music on the conference in yahoo messenger. If anyone wants to check it out, heres the site for it. It's pretty awesome, and we hope to do way more with it, so keep it in your prayers. www.freewebs.com/itsthecrowd/index.htm

Been here again and again swimming in the pool of sin Pleasure was a good friend Showing me where fun begins Clouded mind I couldn't see Sin is only death in the end Broken, brused I now bleed Long term pain of this friend Theres got to be a better way In filth I long to be clean My sins where ones price to pay And his blood is clearly seen Jesus payed my transgressions Gave his life show me truth Now he is my direction In his love he pulls me through Awesome poem man, I loved it, you seriously did an amazing job on this.

I heard that, seriously that is very messed up. I feel that the media is seriously turning agaisnt christianity hardcore, where instead of passive, I noticed mocking christians and God on telivision is a common thing now, IT really sadens me to see that anything Christ related on TV mainstream stations are negative and a form of mockery. Rosie O'donells statement seriously offended me. What makes it more sad is that everything about any other religion is supported except Jewish, or Christian beliefes. But, it's all good cause their only fooling theirselves. I believe God when he says HE's not Mocked. They'll see.

Thats awesome Praise the Lord

Daniel 8 Vision of a Ram and a Goat 1 In the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar a vision appeared to me

Pray and fast about it, seeking Gods guidence, Be lead by the spirit, if the spirit is willing so should you be, with this dream, seek council, and pray and fast. Thats the only thing I really can tell you.

Ok an easy way to understand is, think of the trinity. The father, Son, and the holy spirit. The Anitchrist, is going to create the abomination of desolation by sitting in the place of God. The beast, the antichrist, and the false Prophet, it's a wicked trinity, that is going to be established. Most world religions other than those who have accepted Christ are still waiting for the comming of THe Christ.

I feel that america is going to persicute more and more christians, To the point of death eventualy. Looking at the news, Things are getting really really bad, our country is at a state of a war, plus the vera chip which I feel is a forshadow of the mark of the beast. The world religions, Our country is more and more aligning with world nations, and one world order, things are getting set up, and our nation is going to fall. One message the Lord has given to me, is that there needs to be unity with believers and the church, we need to stand as one Body, wether that was a personal revelation based of my independant pride I once had, it still fits as a universal message. My mother has dreams and visions, One vision she had was her bible was blacked out with every verse was covered concerning Jesus Christ, well that is relivent to our culture today, Blasphamy has become a number one seller in media. ANd also there is a huge political war on the bible right now, They're fighting to take the parts against homosexuality out of the bible, also the liberal rights are taking away those of christian rights. Another Thing I believe is that Christians in our country are going to be concidered terrorists, because we believe in the apociliptic doctrine, that is what media is claiming us to be, and that is where our country is headed in alot of ways. So In conclusion, I feel that things are going to get worse, Christians do have a chance in winning the war in america, by unity and love.

Luke 17:34-37 34 I tell you, in that night there will be two men in one bed: the one will be taken and the other will be left. 35 Two women will be grinding together: the one will be taken and the other left. 36 Two men will be in the field: the one will be taken and the other left.

I agree, we are the light of the world, and that is shown through out actions, I went to a sermon once, and the preacher said he had an actual picture of Christ, he later grabbed a mirror, and let everyone see themselves in it. I found that to be very inspiring. We are the Only Jesus they are going to see, Jesus in our lives. Jesus is about Love and Mercy, now, if we show strife, or anger, how could we imitate the Love and Grace he's given us? Evidence of Christ, and a personal relationship, should be shown through our actions and our hearts. Now that verse quoted, How can we be a light, if we hide the Light in a testimony without Love? Put on Love which is the bond of perfection.

"People do not have faith exclusively in God; their belief also consists of faith in their own ability to discern that God exists." I'd say true, for some, but Some beliefes consist of faith In their own ability to discern that God doesnt exist. The separation of agnostic, and aithiest, agnostics believe there is a God, or somthing greater out there, Aithiests shut out the possibility in their heart. I feel that many accept Jesus in their faith that somthing bigger exists, Usualy that opens up the revelation of Jesus Christ in their lives more, but it can also lead them to putting their faith in Gods which are not Gods, nearly pagan Idols in new names and forms.

Amen, this was pretty awesome to read, I didnt know all that about apologetics, And your right. One thing I noticed, you used the word charity, which in Hebrew means "Love" like with standerd king james, It uses the word charity alot, but the hebrew deffinition of charity, is Love. It is very important to show love, and to keep that heart of love and gentleness. God bless ya.,

That did explain it pretty simple, I like how the cross served as a bridge, awesome awesome

http://biblia.com/jesusbible/prophecies.htm http://www.bibleprobe.com/300great.htm http://www.whoisjesus.org/english/resource...h19/default.htm Hmm concidering there where a total of 1,093 prophecies fufilled in Christ, and the whole old testiment points to the new, Jesus mith,.... Yeah some people lack common sence, Now even historians who dont believe claim that he existed, And there is more evidence that he existed than any other historical document. Check out this site.

That was a nice read, Very true, very true. If you look at the whole concept though, it's all about love. We know the true love in Christ, and we want to spread it. One thing I've realized that really cuts me, is seeing someone blind and hurting others, as well as themself, at first this was a stumbling block for me, and bitterness in my heart. I had to realize that they can't see past the carnal mind. They have never felt the presence of God, and they still think that Christianity is a religion, when it's not, it's a deep intimate personal relationship. Yes if they denie Jesus and go their own way, salvation is not theirs, and I wish all to be saved. Now, one thing about Jesus that it's important to make clear, is that It's a Relationship with a living God, he works in our lives, hearts and minds every day. This is somthing that they cant comprehend, but curiosity often strikes.

Love in the world is to jump off a cliff to feel the thrill of the fall before you hit the ground. Love in the Lord, is to jump off a cliff with no ground to hit. Joshua shaw. Where humanity plants a Thorn, God plants a rose, Author unknown.

In my opinion, soon, Like danial chap 8 and chap 12 is happening now, all the signs Jesus said watch for are happening, it's getting close. I hope it's soon cause I want to go home, But in a way I hope we still got alot of time left cause I want to witness, and spread his truth. So pretty much he's comming sooner now than ever, we may have a ways to go, but no doubt in my mind we are in revelation right now.
