Come to think of it, love and devotion appears to be more prevalent in the canine species than many other. With the exception of Pit Bulls it seems.

Just as close as you. Can you prove otherwise?

Why not? He gave them to me. See my tagline for more understanding.

Wow, it seems that people can overtake the power of God. So I guess the lack of similar miracles in modern times is due to a lack of belief in the power of God?

Nope, it just brings me closer to the one who created. Seeking advantages is a selfish desire.

I did at one time but reason and intelligence burst through and let the idea wanting. Salvation from what? Seriously.

Ol' Nick, still up to using fear tactics. What death will they face Nick? No eternal life? Can you name one person who came back from the other side to verify that eternal life is true?What good are promises that only apply to something beyond this life? I mean, after all, while there are promises of eternal bliss in the bible, there are also…[Read more]

Thanks for calling me clever although I don't think you were trying to compliment me . Let me ask you Nick, does anyone truly NEED God? What are the benefits?You need food, you need air, you need sleep, you need water. Yet you can't really love any of those things (although some indulge heavily in food ad/or sleep). Rather, this right thing to say…[Read more]

After all David, you must admit that Moses claiming to come from God would have more power over the primitive Hebrews than just coming along and saying “I want to help”.

No you explain Moses . One must believe that God did indeed choose Moses to deliver the children of Israel as opposed to Moses just getting tired of seeing the Jews being mistreated and wanting to put a stop to it.I'll have to find it, but I recently read bits and pieces on some research about Moses. This research led the author to assert that…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 27 2008,16:17)Hi KJ, So none of the Prophets spoke the words of God?So no part of the bible is inspired to you? Why do you believe in God?Do we need to believe that God spoke to (or through) some prophet to believe in God? If you think about that, it can actually be a hindrance to a person who never feels God is talking…[Read more]

There was a movie years ago, wish I could remember the name of it (or maybe it was just an episode on a show), where these guys made up a ficticious character and started spreading rumors about him. Soon everyone that heard of him (the ficticious character) were talking about how great he was, and some acted like they had met him, and others were…[Read more]

It helps quite a bit. But it would also have helped if there had been mention of Jesus by those who were not followers. The writers had an agenda after all, so a neutral witness would have immensely improved the probability of unwavering doubt.

Oh and the thread didn't make it far because no one was willing to dance with towshab.

Don't take it personal David . You and I have never really “butted heads” but we haven't supported one another either. Therefore, I would not consider us “buddies” in that sense.

For those of you who are in PKG (or considering it) you might want to check out the comparisons between David Koresh and Yisrayl Hawkins to see if RW & PKG have any of these commonalities…A Comparison Between David Koresh And Yisrayl HawkinsHere are some excerpts that remind me of some things I've read from somoe of the PKG folks here“The One…[Read more]

Actually, doubt is probably a better path to truth. Blind faith has led others to drink poisoned Kool-Aid, give 1000s of $$ to swindlers, etc.

Mar 9:25 When Jesus saw that a crowd was rapidly gathering, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You deaf and mute spirit, I command you, come out of him and do not enter him again.”Very odd. Was Jesus wanting an audience?

No idea. I wasn't there. You? Hercules was said to have performed many feats of strength. Do you believe that happened? If so, why not?

Empowered in what way? To preach with wisdom, or to perform miracles? He said he would not give miracles yet miracles were attributed to him. How do you explain this discrepancy?If someone came along and said “I want to tell you the teachings of someone” you might send the person packing. But if you try to lure that person to listen to you by…[Read more]
