The state decides what you will do. Doesn't any government set down rules and laws for their people to follow? The state decides what you will study. Aren't we already doing this to an extent in any sort of educational institution, government or private? The state decides where you will live...

That's debatable. Do you have any scholarly sources to back that up? Wouldn't you say that as Christians it is our duty to try to achieve as close of a "utopia" as possible through due process or 'other means'. I simply cannot support a system that allows people to be walked on and abused...

What happened in the USSR and in China was a dictatorship, quite the opposite to communism. Marxism is an economic system that has very little to do with religion. Much like how capitalism has little to do with religion.

I'm saying that it's better to live in a communist state, a true communist state, than in a capitalist one. My family were born and raised in a socialist state and lived as Christians. They were free to do so, it was protected by the state. Also, what do you know of Marxism aside from what was...

You can read more about it here: http://www.marxistsfr.org/archive/marx/works/1848/communist-manifesto/ch02.htm You keep your property that you worked hard for. Yes, it's your own personal property. The only things that are shared equally are the means of production, ie: factories, railroads...

I am a Communist and a Christian. No, that is not an oxymoron. :)

Communism is indifferent to a person's religion. You can be a Christian if you so please. Venezuela, a soon to be socialist nation, is predominantly Christian. Also, labeling Christianity individualistic is a fallacy. You can have a relationship with Christ regardless the society (IE Daniel and...

One topic of discussion which comes up every so often is the connection between fervent evangelical Christianity and equally fervent anti-communism. In the minds of many Americans, atheism and communism are indelibly linked and political actions opposed to communism have long taken the form of...

Because Iran was working on a civilian nuclear program.

Love of God over all else. With the love of God, you'll love man, etc.

Of course they can teach (Sunday schools, women studies, and have some direct insight). But a woman cannot have direct over men. AKA: Pastor over them.It's a touchy subject but 1 Cor. 7 covers the subject nicely.

Oh boy here we go again. This forum is generally split into two categories. One group that believes that the act of speaking in tongues is more than "language" and the other that is against it. The later group scares off the first, I noticed that upon observation.I fall in to the category of...

QUOTE (Jordan @ Apr 2 2009, 03:46 PM) Ok, bring your Scripture to prove your statement, and then explain what the following Scripture say.Revelation 14:9-11 (New King James Version)9 Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, ?If anyone worships the beast and his image, and...

QUOTE (Jordan @ Mar 22 2009, 03:09 PM) True, but the real factor is when we lie on the Truth only and not men's lies after one have the Holy Spirit/Ghost. The Holy Ghost will take care of the person. That's nothing to worry about because God takes care of His flock. If something offends the...

Easy: The Holy Spirit abides with us when we're Christian. The Holy Spirit abides in us when we present our bodies as a clean temple (sin free and ready to follow any commands that God gives us).

God be with Israel.

It's funny because the tree has nothing to do with Christianity. Go ahead and keep the tree and call it holiday tree if you like. They just can't change the nativity scene and call it something irrelevant to Christ's birth.

Food for thought.Most Christians would claim that God is all love. While that is partially correct, He isn't all love, He also hates.God hates pride, sin, etc.Think of it this way; if God's love is so unfathomable (that no mortal can even conceive the magnitude of His love), imagine how...
