The second death has no power over a believer, but good or bad, Christian or not we are all subject to bodily death, but none of us know exactly what happens between the moment of bodily death and the day of judgement. Sicne God is timeless it may be that the day of judgement is not a set day...

I was using the term "sleep" figurativly to represent a state of dormancy or suspended animation of the soul in between the moments of bodily death and the time and judgement. I certainly did not mean sleep in the way we know it. All I'm trying to explain is that from a Proestant perspective...

The Co of E is the Church of England.

Like I said, sensible ansers please Mr Webster or not at all.

I ahve a book somewhere that say's the Church expectant is thosewho have died and are kind of dormant, sleeping only metaphorically before the day of judgement, but here we are talking about Cxhristians who are Heaven bound, not non-Christians or false Christians, but real Christians who are on...

maybe for some prachers/Priests preachign on hell is ego, but not for all. I think that Hell and the Devil are very real and we need to be aware of them, but what I really don't like is a Preacher who will spend all his time talking "Fire and Brimstone," instead of talking about the love that...

Sensible answers please.

I know what you mean but not our actions, Adam and Eve's actions surely.. I used to think the whole of the Pentatuch was written personally by Moses but I'm not so sure now. I would guess that he got the basic accounts down but probably somewhere down the line, someone ahs been doing some...

I was just wondering why Genesis 1 and 2 have two different creation stories and in particular why they deal with the origin of man so differently. Why is God portrayed so differently in genesis 1 to genesis 2 and why is he called Elohim in 1 and Yaweh in 2? Is this evidence of two different...

Actually you don't hav to believe inPurgatory to apply the term "church expectant" to those who have died and are not yet in Heaven. The Roman Catholic meaning does refer to Purgatory but to it can mean the time between the death of a person and the final judgement, since most Christians...

Jesus told us to obey the laws of the land and dope is illegal so don't do it. If it was legal I would say it isn't a sin jsut as drinking ithe odd pint of beer isn't a sin. Another thing of course is that it becomes simple when you ahve a dependancy on it. Many people say that pot is...

If Jesus was not fully God then how could he die for our sins? To say that he was not fully God would be heresy.

i was away from all the riots because I live in the North of England. Although, I was having dinner with friends in the centre of Leeds when one of us got a call to say that there was a rumour of riots so we left, but there was no riot, just Soccer related violence which is why the town was...

I try to dress smart casual, some of the men wear suits and some don't but we all at least areclean and tudy, so no-one is scruffy, though many people wear their coats as it can get pretty cold in there as its an old building. I ahve been to churches wear all the men ahve been wearing suits and...

Vanity is a sin.

Nothing at all.

We've got candles coz we're a liturgical church. so what.> So David's clothes came off by accident, that's fair enough, but it doesn't mean that Christians should go into holy places and start stripping off and dancing. P,S, Druids don't ahve black masses, witches and satanists do, but...

Dancingnaked is part of the black mass. and druids used to do it at palces like stonehenge.

Isn't dancing naked a bit pagan? I don't think it is something Christians should be taking part in.

I think that everyone is different and that is why we have so many denominations and worship styles. For example many people don't like solemn structured liturgical services and prefer the kind of thing you mentioned but others would find that kind of thing a bit chaotic and offputting. Some...
