Jesus is ...

Religion What is your take on religion? Do you base your thoughts in life according to your religion? Do you feel that religion should be kept out of Government and Politics?

You know why? Because most people, will go to the actual verses and read them in context, and realize the true meaning.

On the contrary, BILLIONS Believe it.

Why are you so uncomfortable with this subject fx?

Wow, whether or not Jesus IS the son of God...
Some think he was, some think he started out as just a plain ol' man and then became the son of God through his obedience to the Father's will and some say he aint never and aint ever gonna be and some say that Jesus did not even exist, the historic figure we have come to know as Jesus at all.

And you know any of those claims can be supported by something out of "The Book"...

But back to the original billboard...the idea that ONLY if you would vote/decide/check or tick the box that says he is Lord is in itself an affront to His Lordship...if anyone wants to ask me...

Cos isn't he confessed to be LORD OF ALL???

In all my born days there aint any other group of people I know of who redefine the word all so much as fundagelical Christians!

You'd make a good Mormon. That exactly what they believe. Though it could be said that scripture supports that, I stay away from it, cause, well, I just dont feel worthy of such a thing. But it could be the truth.

That woman that stoned her kids to death also had a vision of Jesus. And they say she's crazy and delusional. Yet, Paul has the same vision, and somehow he's a prophet.

It continues to boggle my mind that people go on and on about what Paul said, but completely ignore what Jesus said.

As you can see, I'm not uncomfortable with the subject. You have every right to believe what you want. What I AM uncomfortable with is you posting multiple posts of separate verses. That goes beyond debate to spam. And I don't like spam...on my computer. But I can discuss other peoples religions all day. Religions have a purpose IMHO. Even my own non-religion.

Oh, and hey, there are billions that don't believe in God at all. Guess that makes it right, too?

I was just trying to show that the bible teaches Jesus is God. What each person feels they have to believe about Jesus is up to them. I dont condem anyone for what they believe, and I wish the same could be said for the way they feel about me. But like I said, all I was trying to point out is that the bible teaches that Jesus is in fact God. If folks dont want to believe in the bible, I have no problem with that.

It could be truth. But I think it would mean that there is at least one other level of ascension after this plane. Or "God" would be just another human soul. And you are right, I know I'm not ready.

Like I said, I dont believe in the trinity. I see no need to divide the substance. My God is one. I know there are billions who dont believe in God. Your the one who felt in nessesary to tell me no one believes me. BTW Who or what is emi?
