wow, u think u could make this shorter and repost? i was interested in answering, but wow, i feel like im reading a novel. well, even tho i didnt read it, i would like to say somethingi believe in jesus. the bible on the other hand is different. the bible was written by so many different ppl and they all have their own perception of life and what they believe. however, the bible really is just trying to say that jesus was a spiritual person and that if we are "enlightened" like he was, we can do what he did. look at criss angel from mind freak he is a perfect example. he is very enlightened. my mother in law is a spiritual counselor and she does reiki and such. my husband has premonitions and knows what im going to say sometimes before i even open my mouth. he can also read my thoughts. i mean to me the bible's purpose was to make us aware of what we can do. hope this answers what u were trying to ask...at least in a way. lolgood luck with everything and have a wonderful day

"Christians" have throughout history, endevoured to control the masses by "creating" myths & legends about Paganism (amongst other subjects) It is because of this that the "Devil" was created, (The Devil does not exist before this time) This was invented because the people were not easy to convince to follow the "Christian" ways. "Jesus" (& there were, historically, hundreds of them) was certainly mentioned in Roman literature. As for the rest of "The Question", well it covers so much ground that it would be difficult to seek to answer it at one sitting.

There is no way that I would even try to read that question, it is unbelieveably toooooooooooo long! I would only say to you that you are making things too complicated. Jesus made it simple and easy. Just accept Him as Lord and Savior and read the bible. Forget the rest of religious practices.

Chrisianity is Paganism. Youve done your reserch. right on. Ive been studying religions and mythology for over twelve years now. But I always questioned. I got kicked out of Sunday school for asking questions they couldnt answer. So I always thought something was fishy, something wasnt right, there were obvious contradictions. But the name Jesus when written in the origonal greek Isua, or IUES was an older pre christain and Pagan diety. This is one of the oldest names for God. The spelling might have changed a little but its still the same name. So now I laugh when I see an image of the cross and see a pagan gods name on it. Actualy the now popular image of Jesus actualy came from Dionysius image which were painted in sacred grottes and where they burried their families. Most of the Christian myths were either Pagan, Brahmanism, etc. I know in my reserch I was sickened about the lengths they took to cover their tracks. Why do you think they are so against Pagans more than any other? They are always flinging mud on the Pagan public face and so quick to judge yet they have ritulas, hell even magic in the apocrypha. Moses was a magican wasnt he? Yet magic is suppossed to be a sin. The same goes for fortune telling yet wasnt Jospeh tell the future through his dreams? I feel more and more are waking up and asking questions. I think a house built upon a false foundation must crumble and fall.I really enjoyed your post.long live the Goddess. No matter how hard some try to bring her down, she still survies.

In answering your question it quite simple the evil one, Satan, the Devil is the Father of Lies...John 8:44 (King James Version) Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.I would suspect you're one of his disciples!!!

WOW...lotza head knowledge Dude!!! Your very educated...to say the least. I am impressed with the searching you are doing... that's great.,..to be a seeker !!!I never went to church for years (since childhood) but losing my father gave me a wake up call about 12 yrs ago.The reason I didn't go to church is because I only heard about Jesus....I never met Him personally... I always believed in Him and heard about Him even saw pictures of Him. It's sorta like a celebrity, you believe that there is a Chuck Norris, Vanna White, etc,etc, but you have never met them right ?Well, what would happen if you met one of those celebrities...right now all they are is someone you have heard about..but start talking with them and little by little you get to develope a relationship with them and know them, their likes and dislikes. And what if they gave you their diary....WOW that's when you would really get to know them personally.Jesus is just like that too, He is a real person that you can get to know as a friend.He's not in some far off temple or shrine. the reason He died is so that He could send the comforter...you know...the Holy Spirit... It's a heart thing more than a head thing...I've heard it;s hard for brainyacks to shake off the head knowledge.... but that will be key for you!!!!as far as pageans being the first is completly true. God opens doors of spirituality but the devil takes advantage of that door all he can. he cannot create-he can only twist and decieve the truth...I heard it said once that the root word of wicker furniture is wicked...(not that wicker furniture is wicked ..PLEASE) the point is a visual...the devil takes the truth and twists it to his own advantage..remember God and Satan are the 2 in battle for your soul...I saw in a movie at the end and it quotes... the greatest deception the devil ever played was in convincing man that he didn't exist !!!!!So I'm not surprized that pagaens worshipped that way 1st as Christians do in certian places now...after all look at how evil that the whole world is...and it's gonna get worse...but have you read the end of the BiBle....................... God wins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!there is power in the Blood even science says=the life is in the blood. ponder that one.By the way Chuck Norris is on yahoo answers....check out about the 9-12 page on "Is certified organic important? "He said no...Hope you find your answers !! From a seeker of God!!!!!!!!!!

the only thing jesus wants is for us to belive in him for who ever belives in him shall not perish but have enternal life he didnt want us to debate but to have faith that he is the one and only true lord and savuoir we must know god before we truly see the glory the ones who didnt back in the times before jesus walked the earth god did in fact punish those who disobeyed and denied him but this is why he sent his son to earth so we didnt have to (it is up to us how we live he gave us a free will which he can not take away). we could repent our sins and be born again be clean so to speak god knows of these people who belive in false gods and and such religouse belifes other than him its not for us to cast the first stone what others do though there is a sense of worldly confusion on this subject its part of weather you walk in faith or not do you follow jesus or do you let the world cloud your thoughts to make you even more confused than before it is written in the bible in the begining god created the heavens and the earth everything begins with god it is up to you how you use this but he did not want us to take it out of context even what was told in the old or new testiment these are just teachings to help us in our lives today weather you think they are relivent or not this is why people cant get there head around the bible so they go and mak |
