    New Covenant

    (Two;43449) I Googled this and got lost in the garb so to speak. Can someone please enlighten me on this? Who wrote it? I understand that the 4th Commandment is not included in the New Covenant that allows the Sabbath to be honored as a day of rest and worship on any day of the week. This true...

    Best Bible version to the Bible program?

    Everyone has their personal preference. I like the NIV. It is easy for the average person to read - no antiquated terms like Thee and Thou and Ye. The RSV is also good.

    How can we know that god exists?

    When God sends a message through dreams, wherever it is located in the Bible or Koran, it is never so vague. A ''voice" saying a couple of numbers is very much not what God tells people. if he had spoken to you, you would not be in any doubt as to either who sent the message or what it was- not...

    Is Jesus son of God?

    (Mazhar;43338) 1. God is Just, and justice requires that nobody should be punished for the sins of others, nor should some people be saved by punishing other people. Doesn’t the claim that God sacrificed Jesus to save us because He was Just, contradict the definition of justice? This may be so...

    Is Emmanuel another name of Jesus?

    (TrueVoice;42722) Matthew 1:21-23She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins. All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: "Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son, and they shall name him...

    Is Jesus son of God?

    (Mazhar;43280) About Salvation:1. Christians say that "GOD LOST His only son to save us". To whom did God lose Jesus if he owns the whole universe? God did not lose his Son, he gave him up for us - allowed him to die for our sake. "For God so loved the world he gave his one and only Son so that...

    How can we know that god exists?

    (Cybella;42583) I would like very much to believe that God exists, but I cannot seem to prove it to myself. Is there any proof for his existence, besides the Bible or "just faith"? I was brought up to be a Christian, but now that I am older I am more convinced by science than a preacher's words...
