I had a conversation with an ex Christian now an atheist. We just spoke in general, then i mentioned that in the scriptures it mentions that the earth is round. He said "no it didn't, show me?". I told him to give me a bit of time to find it. He said that this was always the way, we say...

I agree Barrd...

As disgusting and evil as this is! We must remember that if the individual repents and doesn't re-offend he can get forgiveness from God. If this is an illness, then i think the only cure could come from God's spirit. What worries me is that a lot of these offenders are regular church going...

True, there are Gods and Lords...but there is only one true God. Nothing really wrong with referring to some as Lords or Gods. Even the Almighty Himself told Moses that Moses would be a God to Aaron! I have no problem with that, if you go deeper into the scriptures you would find that even...

I have to agree with you that being left behind is not a bad thing. Psalms 37:29...

1 Cor 15:44 - There are physical bodies (us) and there are spiritual bodies (God, angels). For me its quite simple that some of the humans will receive the great gift to be transformed into spiritual bodies, thus they will become like angels. Myself i do not have that hope. Jesus was resurrected...

It says "body" and you say material "body"... If it makes you happy to add your own personal words to the written Word, then by all means do it. There is nothing in the verse you quoted above that indicates a material body, if it was meant to be so then i am sure the Word would have contained...

I really don't get your point here. My view on this is that there are: 1) Humans were created to live on earth. 2) Angels were created to reside in heaven, they had the ability to even "transform" themselves into human bodies when they had sexual relations with woman and fathered children...

A few verses come to mind regarding what it means to be a Christian (follower of Christ). 1) Anyone may choose to become a follower of Christ - Mat 16:24 - John 3:16. 2) We need to find out what requirements are needed to follow Christ - 2 Ti 3:16 - 2 Pet 1:21. 3) Works are important - James...

Thanks for that. It would be nice if you could include the verses that support your 4 statements :)

Personally i never refer to other faiths as cults...for me its a word that carries "derogatory connotations". It would not be Christ like to do that! Just my opinion

Also the JW's believe that Michael and Jesus is the same "person", thus there is no problem, Jesus did come in the flesh.

I have no problem with that explanation! There are many things that we are unaware of when it comes to the Creator and his creations. The angels themselves took on human form and had sexual relations with earthly woman. We must also not forget that God has no limitations.

I have no problem with that. One thing you must remember is that many of the JW's actually left "the other options". So you should expect resistance, they have been there, done that...

Jesus warned against false prophets and how to identify them - Matt 7:15-29... You should get an idea from this who the false prophets are! Just be aware, the false prophets might be who you never expected

Why would you spend your time trying to prove them wrong? Maybe your time could be better spent doing what they are doing...spreading the good news of God's Kingdom. Matt 24:14...if someone don't do it then the prophecy won't be fulfilled!

Personally i can't claim to know the answer. What i do know is that all of us have our weaknesses. But that doesn't excuse us if we act on them and commit a serious sin that God condemns. The bible is clear on God's view of homosexual acts...no way around it.

Thank you! much appreciated

I am here to reason on the scriptures, share ideas and information. Looks like a good place to discuss opposing opinions and maybe even now and then agree :)

How sad that people (Christians) reached a point where they don't even acknowledge the creator for who he is. Psalm 83:17,18(KJV) clearly shows who God is. Jesus is a separate person...His son... Why is it so hard to understand? This is exactly what satan wants! He has succeeded in getting...
