QUOTE(mekboyz @ Feb 18 2011, 02:25 PM) hey i have a question for you bible belts, why christians always talk bout catholics as if they are different? Isnt catholism the original christian religion. Then only all the political hustlers few centuries ago created protestanism la methodist la just to suit their own goals. So yea the true christians are the catholics. you are so very wrong. Those that preach about how about themselves and waste time discriminating about each other's religion rather than to spread the Message, those are the false prophets.. Methodology is the reason why there are many denominations branch out from the original..But that does not justify what these denominated churches are practising is true or wrong.. Only He have the right to judge. |

QUOTE You know what, I read few articles and 1 book, that talks about afterlife. Do you know Ps. Philip Mantofa who visited hell? He wrote a book about it and he said there are christians in the hell, too. You can check out Pastor Philip Mantofa from youtube.com 3In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise, 14 … given as a pledge of our inheritance, with a view to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14)]Have you read a book called "Heaven is so true"? The author also said the same thing, many christians are in the hell, some of them are in the hell mainly because they don't tithe. Then the other article I read was that there were 2 men in the hell, the reasons were because both of them being too stingy and didn't help their neighbour and churchmate respectively. Another one is that a devoted christian (serve in church) doesn't forgive the friends who didn't visit her during her sickness and stayed in hospital, she ends up being in hell. There are many more examples (or testimonies), I can't include them all here... I'm not spreading rumours, just that Christians do not lie and what's more the above 2 christians who write the books are devoted christians, but I just confused: how much can we guaranteed one's salvation? I mean, is tithe really that important to gain salvation? How does God judge someone's salvation? I need the answer!! happy4ever, you will never understand how frustrated I am, I want an answer, answer, answer!! Don't just keep telling me God is good, I know is good, but tell me how good is good, how does God justify thing, let me know the boundaries, let me know the clear cut answer! One of my christian friend (about 50+ years old), he became so close to God as he spends few hours in prayer every day and he told me YES, Christians are possible to go to hell, too, when conviction comes to you and you still live with it, you will end up being in hell. Sometimes, comparing the impression I had about God before I attended church (when I was still in secondary school), I found out my faith is so weak after years of attending church. that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved (Romans 10:9) Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. (James 1:12) Why worry about hell and heaven? Question back at you: Do you want to go to heaven because you LOVE God and WANT to, or because you do NOT want to be in hell? If its the former, then you have no issue. If its the latter, then you seriously have an issue. For God is not genuinely in your life or your heart. Worship is 24/7, by acts, words, and thoughts...not just every sunday warming the pew. Persevere in all your trials and tribulations and resist temptations as much as you can endure. God gives us trial not overbearing us. For if we seek unto Christ the strength, we shall prevail. remember, Jesus INTERCEDES for us. Its because we have Christ and the Holy Spirit, all the more we WANT to glorify God through deeds pleasing to Him Also in James 2:14-26: 14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. 18 But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds. 19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder. 20 You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless[d]? 21 Was not our father Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. 23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,”[e] and he was called God’s friend. 24 You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone. 25 In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction? 26 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead. If you have faith on a chair that will hold your weight, you demonstrate it by sitting on it straight away. Likewise, if you have faith in God, demonstrate it by living life according to His Word. QUOTE Romans 6:18 - we are no longer bound by sin. When you are saved, your salvation is guaranteed. God knows your true intent Does this including the christians, after accepted Christ and do not repent of their sins? That goes to show if you are truly sincere in accepting Christ. When praying the sinners prayer prior to becoming a Christian, you already repented and is willing to be buried your old self with Christ, and be ressurected as a new person in Christ (ie baptism) and thus you no longer are bound by your old ways, but the path led by the Holy Spirit. But when you DELIBERATELY sin..you are directly rejecting the Holy Spirit. Conscious and unconscious sins...we all still sin. But God knows our heart's intent. Whether we are truly evil or after the heart of God. |

"They are one people and have one language, and nothing will be withholden from them which they purpose to do." So God said, "Come, let us go down and confound their speech." And so God scattered them upon the face of the Earth, and confused their languages, and they left off building the city, which was called Babel "because God there confounded the language of all the Earth."
The video shows communication of the purest form, aside from those babies being cute. Only then, we are slowly adulterated with symbolism, also known as language. This post has been edited by Deadlocks: Apr 3 2011, 04:21 PM |

Bible Verses Eph 4:3 Being diligent to keep the oneness of the Spirit in the uniting bond of peace: (4) One Body and one Spirit, even as also you were called in one hope of your calling; (5) One Lord, one faith, one baptism; (6) One God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. In exhorting us to safeguard the oneness (4:3), the Apostle Paul points out seven things as the base, the very foundation, of our oneness: one Body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God and Father. These seven ones are of three groups. The first three can be grouped together, the Spirit with the Body as His expression and the Body related to the one hope... The next three can also be grouped together, the Lord with faith and baptism, that we may be joined to Him. Then we have one God and Father, who is the Originator and source of all. The Spirit as the Executor of the Body, the Son as the Creator of the Body, and God the Father as the Originator of the Body—all three of the Triune God—are related to the Body. The keeping of the oneness is a matter in the Triune God. This means that the Triune God Himself is the base of our oneness, its fundamental basis and very foundation.... In our experience, however, the Spirit is first because He is directly related to the oneness, to the carrying out of the oneness in the one Body. Following this, we have the Lord as the Accomplisher and the Father as the source. Therefore, our oneness is the Triune God realized and experienced by us in our Christian life. |
