Hi Ed.Jesus HAS come back, and is seen by FOLLOWERS of Him, with the Spiritual Eye, and those who “Hear” His vioce with their Spiritual Ears.  In those He guides them and Teaches them and helps them.However, He is still to return VISIBLY, where Every Eye will see Him.Rev 1.7: Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, every…[Read more]

Ed, are you another Armstrong believer? Have you ever studied Armstrongism or any branch of it?

Bod, you either believe the words of Jesus and God, or the Quran. The choice is yours.

Quote Don't you believe some people deserve life in prison for commiting unexcuseable heinous crimes or do you believe people who are absolutely evil should be free and given the chance to do more evil?Yes.  And the reason they deserve life also is because they could commit the crime again.  So it's to keep society safe, I agree.However, there i…[Read more]

Bod, you said:Quote …you see the Quran makes it clear that God may at His own discretion even retract someone from hell...And quoted from the Quran:Quote One day will He gather them all together, (and say): “O ye assembly of Jinns! Much (toll) did ye take of men.” Their friends amongst men will say: “Our Lord! we made profit from each other: but…[Read more]

Amen Nick

Bod, so, according to you, 'God at his own discretion can retract someone from hell'.Is that what most Muslims believe?  (I thought I read differently).Either way, the description of Hell in the Quran is just not right.  So even if it was for a very very long time, it would seem an eternity to be burnt alive with no escape – in all types of d…[Read more]

Jodi, good posts you made and points.  I agree with everything that you said apart from the genealogy of Jesus.  This would be through Mary's line would it not?Mary it says was a virgin and knew no man.  So if that's what the Scripture says then it must be true.  If God simply said 'Let there be light' and there was light, then a Virgin Birth is…[Read more]

Bod, if a God tormented people forever and ever without end, why worship that? What ARE you worshipping? What are your REASONS to worship?

Bod,  I used to go in car rides and for some reason (an earlier experience of a car smash) I was always scared the car would crash and I would die, and go to hell.  I never thought I was good enough.Eventually – after my spiritual experiences with God, I one day questioned it in my mind.  I wondered… why people – who never ASKED to be born, th…[Read more]

Amen

Ed, the Day of the Lord and the Return of Jesus. Same Day, still future, we're still waiting.But Jesus is here – in Spirit form.

Marlin, Yes.And you?

Quote (bodhitharta @ Feb. 16 2012,12:31)So what you are saying is that the bible is not clear about Hell? That makes you feel good?Christians can't even agree on hell but can I ask you this is Hell even any sort of punishment? You simply say it means you just die and don't exist right well that is what the Atheists say and they say that is what is…[Read more]

Quote (bodhitharta @ Feb. 16 2012,12:32)Shimmer, please pick up your Quran and follow JesusNo, Bod, I don't need to open a Quran.  You need to get back to JESUS.Jesus loves you.

Hi Marlin, thanks for asking. I have known Jesus since I was a young kid. My Friends (Foster Sisters and Brothers) and I all got Baptised together. So it was a good thing, I chose to. If I had the choice I would have.
