Judas Iscariot
I have just come back from seeing Andrews Lloyd Webber's Jesus Christ Superstar. Fantastic show. For those of you who don't know the story of Jesus last days is shown from the point of view of Judas in this musical. Anyway - brilliant show - but it got mne thinking - Is Judas in heaven? The reason I...

Love Poems
Hi Everyone. I was wondering if you could help me. I am getting married in a few weeks time and I wanted to give my wife to be a gift of a little book of Love Poems. I am going to write a few myself but I wonder if anyone knows any really good ones that they have heard that I could possibly use - as...

It does tell us in Scripture that one can know God through Nature and what is around him. Ok, so is that enough to get into Heaven, then? If someone like myself were just to feel supremely humbled by the beauty of nature and understand that some force greater than myself was responsible, would that...

Hi Caldraug. Thanks for your thoughtful responses. It is great that we can see some common ground with regards to the existence of the universe. What you said is perfectly valid. The problem with all of this though is that when you get to the transcendal realms of existence outside of the universe i...

Re: The general introduction for non-believers
Please excuse my intrusion here, and let me make it clear that I am most certainly not decided that the Christian faith is the wrong one. Far from it, I give all faiths equal credibility because, let's face it, no one can ever truly know anything. Believing in one's own existence is a matter of fai...

if he wanted forgiveness, i would forgive him. God forgives those who ask for forgiveness. my father still denies what he did to my sister. he calls me crazy and a liar when i bring it up. i saw it with my own eyes. my brothers saw it. i'm not those things. he says i needed to get beat and my broth...

Re: God and the devil
This came up in a discussion with a friend today...I haven't been able to explain it well enough so I thought someone here could help: Since God is all-powerful, why doesn't he just destroy Satan? After all, humans seem to do pretty well being evil enough just on their own. Maybe it is part of Gods...

Bush has done more to raise the level of terror in this world than any other world leader. This is nonsense. I suppose 9/11 was also his fault? The first World Trade centre bombings? The attack on the Achille Lauro? Why don't you blame the terrorists for the terrorism? War on terror is fine but you...

Pretty good Judah. I have often wondered if that might not actually be true. And I do think that He does know us individually and by name, although our real name may not be what we think it is. This is a thought that comforts me that he might know my name even though we are seperated by over 2000 y...

Wow. This has been a very good thread. Both Mastermind and Voicingmaster have raised some very good points. I know i am late in this game but if you will indulge me - these are my two pence worth. The way I look at the Trinity is this. God is a being that exists outside of time (I believe this is me...

I have odd thoughts too. Sometimes they come out in verse format. Here's one of mine... Have you ever thought perchance That life is just a life-long trance; You're sleeping in some crazy dream And not awake as it may seem? Perhaps the world you know as real, And everything you think and feel, Is m...

Re: Islamic Terrorists.
What an absolute ridiculous thing to say and it is a typical American response. Sorry - but comments like that make me sick. Lets not go there please. Are you downright positive that the calamities in the USA, UK, and Spain were or weren't wake-up signs from God? :roll: I brood if more people, part...

A Silly Notion
I had a silly thought one day. I wondered what would happen if I had a time machine and went back to the Garden of Gethsename on that fateful day when Jesus was alone and just watched him. If he noticed me I wonder if he would look up and say "Ah Silvertusk - you are a bit out of your time aren...
