In the word today, effectual penitent, heart-purifying, regenerating faith in the Divine Son of God sent be the Father to be the Savior of the world is relatively rare. But it is He who saves sinners by His sinless shed blood. And which faith is imputed for righteousness, and is shown in baptism and following the Lord, Glory and thanks be to God.

Meanwhile, for the keyword adding poster who thinks this "belongsinreligion" forum, not only is that ignorant (as if beliefs are not related to conservation vales) but by that measure he do not belong on the officially pro-God (of the Bible) FR.

As a teenager, Fatima looked for answers in fortune telling and by reading coffee grounds.

Fool! Everyone knows it's by examining the patterns in the entrails of animals and interpreting the arrangement of bones cast in a random manner.

The saddest thing about nearly all Muslims today.. they are just the descendants of those the Muslims raped and forcefully converted after murdering their male ancestors.

“He’s not a personal god. He’s distant, and nobody knows who he is. Nobody knows his nature. Nobody knows his plans. You just know that he cares about morality and in order to go to heaven, you must do good works.”

It's how some rabbis describe Judaism. They say Christians are too familiar with God, calling Jesus their buddy, best friend, personal savior.

Jesus broke new ground when he taught that we can call God "Abba," which is a familiar way of referring to one's father. This was shocking to both Jews and pagans, who viewed God/gods as awesome and dangerous entities that one must approach with trembling.

That's a term among Orthodox Jews -- "trembling before God" -- because it's how you're supposed to approach God. That's why it was used as the title for a documentary about Orthodox gays.

Well if Christians limit themselves to only one wife and one or two kids, while Muslims practice polygamy and marry girls off to procreate as teens, which religion will have more followers.

John 1
King James Version

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it.
