Do not worry and fret, my friend, her mission is clear :) Like her, many walk the earth, aimlessly, arrogantly thinking of themselves of being on higher ground than others because of who they are, as individuals and not of who made them. I think we all know who she is and her purpose here but alas, pray for her and be kind to her for she doesn't know any better. Follow your faith and do not be persuaded by decoys, detours and pebbles on the road. They will too shall turn to dust.

Prayer and faith without good action is uselessTrue. But what of prayer and faith with good action? And what responsibility are you alluding to? You're making many mysterious comments on this thread....

Gratitude for one's life is the foundation of happiness.
Is Gaia your God? The good earth we step upon?

I don't tolerate false beliefs that endanger people. The Master of the Universe also does not tolerate false beliefs although he is very patient. But time is running out. The people not willing to read the current signs will be woken up even more in the not-too-distant future if they are not careful.
The carpenter will not return and guide the affairs of man. Waiting for him to do so is folly.

Holding onto a false belief is like being lost at sea with a poor quality life raft to support you.
Do you have proof that I am wrong? If so you would be the first. but since no proof will be forth coming I can assume that you may be a false prophet.

Those who aren't reached by other PEOPLE spreading the Gospel, are reached by God Himself.

It's Jewish but your beliefs (and taking Christ out of contest) are definitely NOT Judaic.

No dust here. The garden is lush and green and it's a beautiful day.

Blessings to you too. Discussing vital points of certain belief systems is important work.

Is this Master of the Universe somehow related to He-Man and the Masters of the Universe that work out of Greyskull?
He surely doesn't sound like the God that I know personally as my Lord and Savior.

I trust God very much and have gratitude for may existence. Gratitude for one's life is the foundation of happinessGood for you! But in my experience, people who trust God and are grateful for what He has done for them generally don't attempt to tear down the sincere beliefs of other people. Would you care to apologize for your initial comment on this thread, or do you want to leave me with the distinct impression that you are a hypocrite?
Whatever you decide is okay by me. By the way, my church will be organizing a work day to help those in need in Sonoma County. I invite you to participate in this day of serving others. I promise that no one will try to convert you while we're painting the walls of a battered womens' shelter....

I am what you call a g'oym, coming from mixed parents, Jewish and Christian and, unfortunately, I heard enough blame from both sides for me to understand that GOD is a LOVING ABBA. So I heard the slow whispers to my ears from "family" about Christ being a warlock and the whispers from the other side of the "family" about Jews killing Christ. I would think that by now, Jews and Christians would understand that they have a common goal for survival, co-existing in peace and love. But I guess you never got the memo!

I will bet my left leg and say that the carpenter from Nazareth does not appear in the next month, year, decade, century or ever.
My left leg wont look too good in a century...So I suggest you take the bet now and fix a contract fulfillment time for 2050.

Clearly the above was for our swimmer friend :)

I think people get the infallibility of the versions of the Bible as written down by the inspired-by-God authors mixed with the falllibility of the english versions of the Bible we have today (KJV/NIV). There's also the issue that most people who throw out supposed contradictions don't take the time to study the scripture in context and depth. EVERY alleged contradiction has been accurately answered and disproven. I find it pleasantly ironic that a number of people who set out to disprove the Bible got saved during the process. :-)
The plaintext of the Bible is impressive enough by itself. The underlying structure is mind-boggling. It's my fervent belief that anyone who approaches the intellectual study of the Bible with an open mind can only come to the conclusion that it was crafted by someone outside our space-time domain. That doesn't mean they'll be saved, of course. Plenty of people come to "believe" in God and still go to hell.

Quinotto, you're last post was to yourself. I hear what you are saying. I also hope and pray that we can all live in peace, happiness and security. I've never said that Jesus of Nazareth was a warlock. I just don't believe in his divinity.
