Hey Nick,Question for you – when someone like Kevin looks at the Bible as critically as he has, and he finds the things that he has found, what do you suggest he do with his findings? A lot of what he has found is there for anyone to see (I've verified a lot of what he has presented as being obviously true). A lot of the loop holes do exist. Is…[Read more]

Quote (kejonn @ Mar. 12 2008,15:04)What both Jews and Christians fail to bring forward is that 1975 years have passed since Jesus and many more have passed since the Jews' last “deliverer”. I think both have been in a mode of very wishful thinking for thousands of years. Both looked for either Jesus or the messiah to come back in the first…[Read more]

My married name is also German (a very common German name I'm told – kind of like “Smith” in the states). I went from a very easy to pronounce maiden name to a married name I always have to spell out for everyone. UGH.

Sis Irene,I had a very touching story I wanted to share in the “Positive” thread but didn't have posting rights there. I tried to copy it over to this thread and lost it. It was just too long for me to type over again (I'm too tired tonight). So much for trying to fellowship.Sorry. I'd like to participate in that thread but I'm not allowed…

It's such a pain to not be able to post in the “believer's” section! I wish you would reconsider what a “Believer” is, t8. I mean, Kejonn and myself believe in God and Jesus – isn't that enough? Thanks.

Nick, that is great that you and t8 had a chance to get together like that. I guess I miss that part of fellowship. I had it with a small Abrahamic Faith group, but then they split up over a divorce issue and interpretation. I haven't been able to find another body of believer's since.

Quote (Cato @ Mar. 11 2008,02:04)We, like David, try to skew or spin even discreet choices based on our prejudices and perspectives, which is very human and natural, yet shows why truth is sometimes so elusive.Truth can be elusive!

Quote (Cato @ Mar. 11 2008,02:36)I believe life is a school and were all learning and God adapts this learning based on the needs of our individual souls.And what a relief this is to know!

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 11 2008,06:31)You must be born again.I think that is what Cato was referring to – you don't throw away everything (like the need to be born again), but there are some things that can and should be called into question.

But I had such high hopes of studying the Librarian sciences….Stu, I am just “me”. But there is a desire to belong to a group. Even you have a group that you identify with, I'm sure? It's really not a matter of adopting a label, per se. It's about having a core of beliefs that other's share and confirm; it's about fellowship, ice cream…[Read more]

Thanks, Irene. I know you have been praying for me and I truly appreciate those prayers right now!It's funny, I've been a believer all my life and yet now I feel as though I need to have the gospel told to me all over again. I guess I never graduated from the milk feeding although I thought I was so wise?

Bro 94,It helps tremendously, thank you so much for taking the time to paste all these scriptures together. Now I can plainly see how you come up with your belief system. I wonder though, maybe I'm dense (which is entirely possible ), but I still see how the “son” or the “king” prophesied is someone other than Jesus. The reason I lean towards…[Read more]
