Actually, we're not required to do anything by anyone.
Even becoming a Christian isn't required, but there are positive eternal benefits if we do, and live it God's way.

God bless you

Ironically, what he refused to look up was God's Word, not man's opinion.

Please define God word, the words that HE spoke or the bible, God didnt speak everything in the bible, can you imagine how you would feel if someone went around saying it s your word when you never said it but christians do it everyday.

And we all know who Gods word is, do we Not ????

Joh_1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

His word is not a book.
I think God is pleased when everyone goes around giving God all the credit.

What in the world are you talking about? You are not in the garden of Eden and I'm not the serpent.
We don't need either to look up something if it is so not worthy that someone does not make it visible.

Lol, you are an amusing chap.

That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. ...

Now you don't have to bother looking up a Bible verse.

The problem with truth here is that most everyone here has a version of what all those quoted verses mean, without any validation, mostly a twisted opinion.

For me, after over 40 years I left the Church to find Jesus and HIS TRUTH.

For me, after over 40 years of reading, studying, and researching,
I have found bible colleges and churches in this country and most others, to be an ABOMINATION to Gods truth, like many others have
who are leaving in mass if you stay in touch with todays church culture.

For those who aren't, when Jesus comes back as a thief in the night, they will be the MANY who enter the BROAD WAY because they had better things to do, than find the truth or even care about it.


If Gods words don't terrify you, then you haven't got a chance except in HELL.

I was just thinking about how FABULOUS and MAGNIFICENT LIFE IS RIGHT NOW after being with the Lord 42 years.

What I KNOW you will never hear in church.

So many here seem so unhappy and ready to attack anyone, and here I am so happy in my faith, I went out for a walk after dinner tonight on this sunny evening, and just prayed while I walked and gave praise to the Lord that I could be so content and full of peace.

How do I explain the kind of joy that has no words - PRAISE YOU MY LORD.

For what creating all these religions from a book he never wrote, I dont believe He would want to be thanked for leading people into bondage. JEsus came to set people free.

Your hidden book , your own study of and anti-Bible secret heresies.... ?
I have no anti bible anything.. Men just dont like there Idols trod on makes them angry. I though Christianity was about Christ, didnt know the bible was God.

His Word is unchanged and unchangeable forever. Important, Life and death, to meet Him before you die.
