It's funny how no matter where you go on Earth, people all over the world from all kinds of different cultures all have a "sense" of God. I honestly think that this "sense" has been instilled in us by "higher ups" to create a sense of conscience in order to deter us from crime. Granted that this "sense" dates back milleniums, it is still possible that it was created by man, for man. I think all of the theories and controversies over religion are stupid. Also, isn't it funny how all religions have no physical proof of their diety? They all just "believe". People are so gullible.

Mr. M

There are proofs such as miracles, prophecies etc., personal revelations and situation altering from God.
Pretty much more evidence than that "higher ups" embedded this "sense".
And how could humans create it?
Such advanced civilisation would surely leave some kind of evidence and with all that incredible technology they could escape disaster.


First of all, miracles are just things that don't normally occur. Things that are very well possible of happening all of the time, however, they are in a way "freaks of nature" if you will.

Prophecies are made by people with insight into the future, intellectually. They are not "revalations" from God. If God was to reveal something, he would reveal it to everyone, not just one person. Also, more prophecies have been proved wrong than right. Which basically means that if you prophecy 100 thing, and 5 turn out to be correct, in the public eye you are a "prophet".

Last time he came in humility, this time he will come in power and great glory. Its God against man ur talking about and God wins!!!!!!!



actually, he'll prolly get the crap beaten out of him....if some hobo walked up to you and said he was jesus, what would YOU say?

hahahha! i'd say, rock oN! but then again i dont think jesus was a god of any sort, so im kinda void in that argument huh?

live it, love it, and quit restraining yourself because some big spooky boogyman in the closet (the bible) told you to. i cant believe im saying this, but ITS JUST A BOOK! (this is a horrible thing for me to say...being a starving artist, i cant believe id ever say something was JUST a book! hahah)

*
i once heard something where god was talking to a little girl who had died and gone to heaven. she asked god why he would ever hurt anyone if he loved them all. why would he send them to hell?

and he responded that in the time of judgement, when the world was going to end, those who had payed their dues in hell would be forgiven and given entrance to the holy land again. but he pressed his fingers tohis lips and told her to keep it a secret.

i think this is.......cute.

ok ok either it was a story with a little girl...or.....

it was in the book of revelations that was not put int he bible?

yeah i think its the second one. the book that wasnt put in was too descriptive and also gave away that big secret.
so yeah.

ok, im prepared to have bricks thrown at me...1..2..GO!

Paul admits in the Bible itself that he would lie to spread his version of Christianity


Where?



Paul The Liar gave Jesus the power - not God


You dont understand anything do you. People believed Jesus had risen from the dead before paul came about. Paul used to persecute christians, he gave up everything to follow Jesus. His friends, his home, his reputation, his life in the end, if there was a conspiracy with him and the romans working together tell me why did they crucify him?

The church didnt even accept him to begin with they were scared he would kill them under the authority of the Jewish concil.


do not believe in a big angry god condemning everyone to hell for not living a righteous life or accepting his gift as salvation.


Lets say you were diabetic- you need insulin injections to live. They are there, but unless you inject them they wont help. unless you accept Jesus (the gift of eternal life that he offers) how can you be saved. Sin causes spiritual death, thats the punnishment, unless you ask for forgiveness your not gonna get it. He's done so much to reach you all he asks is that you take his hand.


the emperor of a vast empire...........has a religion....finds one thats better.......doesnt want to look like a moron by saying something he didnt create is better than his own.....what doyou LOGICALLY think he would do?


When Jesus come's in to your life things change. rulers are humbled, the poor are lifted up, the broken healed. Christianity is not a religion.

Religion believes by following rules you can get somewhere.

Romans 7:

Struggling With Sin

7What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed I would not have known what sin was except through the law. For I would not have known what coveting really was if the law had not said, "Do not covet."[2] 8But sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, produced in me every kind of covetous desire. For apart from law, sin is dead. 9Once I was alive apart from law; but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died. 10I found that the very commandment that was intended to bring life actually brought death.
11For sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, deceived me, and through the commandment put me to death. 12So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous and good. 13Did that which is good, then, become death to me? By no means! But in order that sin might be recognized as sin, it produced death in me through what was good, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
14We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. 15I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature.[3] For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do--this I keep on doing. 20Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
21So I find this law at work: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me. 22For in my inner being I delight in God's law; 23but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members. 24What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? 25Thanks be to God--through Jesus Christ our Lord!
So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God's law, but in the sinful nature a slave to the law of sin.


if you said anything that isnt "mix them together" you are a moron


1 Corinthians 1:27
But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.

I dont care what the world thinks of me, the promises of God are what I live by.


actually, he'll prolly get the crap beaten out of him....if some hobo walked up to you and said he was jesus, what would YOU say?


Look in revalation and how it says he will come. He will cvome with the full authority and power of God. if you think you can fight someone who shakes the very foundations of the earth be my guest.

? would humans on Mars be subject to Gods plans for earthmen....
~~~~~~~~~~~

Very much so... the primary reason being:

Humans are human because of DNA, Chrosomes, Genes,
So..the God Creator, Wherever humans spill over into,
has an antidote or universal solvent to 'clean up' the
human contagion (whether on the Moon or Mars!!)

How can HE track these off-earth colonists?

humans are linked by a universal consciousness (group mind)...which is a spiritual/metaphysical entity...which generally envelopes the earth, like the bio-sphere or atmosphere...
it is also 'elastic' or 'amoeba like' and stretches to encompass human space travelers too! so, when men
go to the moon->the UC/mind/gnosis etc-> stretches,
like when you pull on a wad of bubble gum...having that
long stringy thing connecting the 1/2 wad in your mouth
with the 1/2 wad in your fingertips.
Then....returning to the mouth where you chew it up &
it all blends back together

it won't matter where men go...
...the Creator will track them!

as humans have the 'God part of the brain' and the
'universal consciousness' as a type advanced RFID chips
to track them..........................

Humans also contain DNA/Genetics to identify the
sub-category & nomenclature...of each individual!

In the End, it's only the judgement that's uncertain...because your disposition is based on your works, character, and those subjective elements...

BESIDES--> its stated....
that MANY will be found Wanting!!!
