I could go through JUST the book of Mathew and list a lot of commands. Mathew 5:3-10 alone is 8. But here are some: List of Commands of Jesus Commandments of Jesus How many do you need? Do you agree?

Do you think He didn't have any? Do you think there are only two? In Mathew 28:19-20 Jesus tells the Apostles to go into all the nations teaching them to observe all that Jesus commanded them. Do you really think it took over 3 years to teach the Apostles two commandments? What do YOU think...

Agreed. Interesting points... I also don't know if there's an age restriction. I could find out,,,I know a young girl that has several. Also, as to girls getting them first... They seem to like cute little ones... The guys seem to go for more substantial stuff so maybe they need to make sure...

Amen to all that! Great explanation.

Believe in Jesus, the Son of God John 3:16 Keep His commandments John 14:15 Be His disciple John 12:26

No one does a very good job. But we could do our best.... I don't believe God hardens anyone's heart. The N.T. says God wishes everyone could be saved... but He has conditions and many refuse to meet them. 1 Timothy 2:3-4 3This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4who...

So you believe God reveals Himself to everyone and then we each decide for ourselves whether or not we wish to serve God? God is sovereign and in the end HIS Will will prevail... Within that Will of HIS, WE do have the free will to choose Him and to choose our moral behavior. As to Pharaoh...

I know many girls about the ago of 18 that are having this done. Little hearts, flowers, initials -- stuff like that. The big change I DO see is that PARENTS are more open to it. When the generation after me was growing up, their parents (my generation) were not too thrilled to hear that a...

Doesn't God enable everyone to? Did He pick you out among the many?

I'm sorry E, the above is not right. Please see the following... Natural law - Wikipedia

I'd go a step further and say He'd be just another messenger of God.... Like the ones I spoke of in some posts above.

@Marymog I once started on thread on: Why Do You Believe? The answers were kind of like what Amadeus answered and others agree with. They gave very personal reasons. Most everybody, anyway. If this is how they feel, then this is what must be accepted. The first thing I learned in studying...

Hi E, Are we talking about the same laws? The Natural Law of God IS the moral law. I meant that anyone who preaches good deeds/works, the golden rule, etc... CAN be someone sent from God. Jesus didn't always exist but man always knew of a higher power,,, I didn't mean a street preacher. I...

No. Of course not. I did read somewhere, sometime, that the Apostles were given this authority to forgive in the sense that they could determine who could be allowed to enter into the church (small c) and who could not. This made some sense. IOW, if they deemed a person was not "worthy" or...

I don't know what you're talking about mj. Krishna never said he was God. They worship him "as a god"...because that's what THEY want to do. Atheists believe this of us, BTW, and even some Christians. What I'm saying is that God did not come into existence when Jesus was born. God ALWAYS...

Does @Marymog mean we need miracles to believe... OR Is she saying that miracles can be a sign that Jesus is God? Haven't been following along --- sorry. I don't think she meant that we need miracles to believe. Maybe she could answer?

Yes, of course I meant John 20:23. Thanks. But we all MUST forgive the sins of others... why would we need any authority? I have to say that I agree with Protestant doctrine, but this verse gives me a real problem. Jesus specifically said that whose sins they (apostles) forgive will be...

I'm on a phone and can't write too much. YOU answer re Romans 1:19-20..... That's the answer..... God always revealed Himself.

Oh. Everything!! Jesus was born 2,000 years ago. What happened before that?? God was always around. Romans 1:19-20

Sorry mj,,, I don't understand the problem...
