Faith is encoded in the brain. Unless one experiences a traumatic experience later in life, by adulthood it is very hard to change ones ideals. Which
is sad, because there is so much evil in this world and to write it off saying "oh its on purpose God wants it to happen for the better good" is
rediculous. Tell that to rape victims.
where did you get the idea "evil"? or even words . ?
did you say evidence?-
funny thing I was an "adult" that made fun of anything God/Jesus until the one night I heard an audible invisible voice sitting beside me that said my
name then "I am Jesus I died for your sins believe in Me and you will never perish" and most definately changed my faith in dead "men" and their
ideals
Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will
live.-John5
suddenly a light shone around him from heaven. Then he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting
Me?”
And he said, “Who are You, Lord?”
Then the Lord said, “I am Jesus-Acts9
there were many priests, because they were prevented by death from continuing. But He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood.
Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.-Hebrews7

to what shall I liken this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling to their companions
Go, shut thyself within thine house.. thou shalt say unto them
The appearance of their workings was, as it were, a wheel in the middle of a wheel.
When the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted
up.
The King James Version:
Its Influence on English and American History
The King James version of the Bible is only a book. What can a book do in history? Well, whatever the reason, books have played a large part in the
movements of men, specially of modern men.
No other book has ever had its chance www.bible-researcher.com...

The Internet was designed in part to provide a communications network that would work even if some of the sites were destroyed by nuclear attack.

For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or
powers. All things were created through Him and for Him.
His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour
to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.

So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit
of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.
who say, ‘Keep away; don’t come near me, for I am too sacred for you!’ Such people are smoke in my nostrils, a fire that keeps burning all
day.
the word of the LORD came to them:
"Law after law, law after law,
line after line, line after line,
a little here, a little there,"
so they go stumbling backwards
For if those who live by law are heirs, faith has no value and the promise is worthless, because law brings wrath. And where there is no law there is
no sin counted.
Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes
He wrote that the teachings of Jesus contain the "outlines of a system of the most sublime morality which has ever fallen from the lips of man."

Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.
Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.
Why don't you judge for yourselves what is right?
For why should my freedom be judged by another’s conscience? If I take part in the meal with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of something
I thank God for?
Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy
him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For verily
he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.
Here there is no Greek or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free, but Christ is all
The Declaration of Independence is one of the greatest documents in human history, and you have the privilege of enjoying its benefits every day
of your life. Does that seem like a strong statement? The Declaration of Independence is one of the most prominent efforts by human beings to stand up
in the face of tyranny and proclaim that every human being has God given rights to be free, to be protected and to pursue their lives the way they
want to. www.revolutionary-war-and-beyond.com...
For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

One man considers one day more sacred than another; another man considers every day alike.
The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will
lead them.
The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
a dispute arose among them as to which of them was considered to be greatest. Jesus said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and
those who exercise authority over them call themselves Benefactors. But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like
the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves.
