Quote (terraricca @ April 14 2012,03:33)ShimmerQuote We each have our own idea it seems on what God is , weather Jesus pre-existed, etc, but in the end, all that really matters is how we have lived our life…  And if we listen to God – and if we turned to God.God either knows us, or He doesn't.i know God is my Father and I love God.And Jesus is…[Read more]

Quote (Marlin1 @ Mar. 25 2012,18:52)Hi Colyer,Quote That was a mean spirited reply.They were mistreated and warped by those who knew no better, then they did the same to you, and you are only attempting the manipulation on me that was done to you.First they ruin your dignity, your God given gift of perception. They indoctrinate and tell you that…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ June 07 2008,22:10)Since the writer of this (and most media commentators and politicians in the US) don't actually understand what secularism means, then the platitudes above are pretty irrelevant.  They are certainly not supported by any cited evidence.StuartSo,now no one even knows what “secularism” is except you Stu? Do you ever…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ April 24 2008,11:04)Sacha Baron Cohen and the penitentiary system together deserve salvation for their good works in wasting Kent Hovind's time and thereby saving us all from him. Stuart

Quote (Stu @ April 22 2008,19:42)Thanks Colter.  That is very interesting.  The Agricultural Revolution is thought to have begun about 10,000BCE, first in the Middle East, so the date of this temple is within that range.  Perhaps it shows that civilisation was more advanced by 9,500BCE than previously realised.StuartHi Stu,Your welcome, fa…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ April 08 2008,07:16)Hi colter,No. The Son of God who became son of man.I do not know which bible you read but none I know of show him teaching all men are sons of God.Rather he told the Jews their father was the devil.Only the second Adam was an eternal life giving spirit.He is the fountain of life.Christ brought grace and…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ April 08 2008,06:02)Hi colter, The Son of God is a Son of God.He does not precede God but proceeds from God. He is no brother to men of the flesh but brother to those like him,  born of the Spirit. He became one with his father in heart and mind and will and Spirit.Many do know of God but only those reborn can know…[Read more]

Good morning Nick,The Son of God was not a “new creation” but is eternal, from the beginning, philosophically speaking, even though God has no beginning in time.Our creator brother, through whom the world was made, incarnate in the flesh. He revealed the personality of the Father in greater detail to ALL mankind, not a chosen race. “Grafted on” is…[Read more]

The central theme of Jesus teaching was salvation by doing the will of the Father, salvation by Faith/Grace. Jesus was a living revelation of the Father to mankind, a revelation far greater then the dim view of the redacted scriptures.Just as the Hebrew priest class added endless self righteous and compulsive rules as the price of salvation, so…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ April 07 2008,06:49)Hi colter, If you know that God is spirit then you learned that from the bible, the same bible that teaches the necessity of belief in Jesus as the only way to God.Hi Nick,While other religions teach that “God is spirit” in my culture of origin I would say your correct, It has been the Bible and the Urantia…[Read more]

THE NATURE OF EVOLUTIONARY RELIGIONThe study of human religion is the examination of the fossil-bearing social strata of past ages. The mores of the anthropomorphic gods are a truthful reflection of the morals of the men who first conceived such deities. Ancient religions and mythology faithfully portray the beliefs and traditions of peoples long…[Read more]

SOVEREIGNTY–DIVINE AND HUMANThe brotherhood of men is founded on the fatherhood of God. The family of God is derived from the love of God–God is love. God the Father divinely loves his children, all of them.The kingdom of heaven, the divine government, is founded on the fact of divine sovereignty–God is spirit. Since God is spirit, this kingdom…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ April 04 2008,09:27)Hi Colter, Jesus and the apostles did not live in a religious vacuum. Apart from the Jewish faith there were also many other idolatrous religions on offer. Jesus did not seek them out or confront them. He did meet with them as God allowed and related with them according to their expressed needs. Paul was…[Read more]
