I might find out that the muz are right, and Im to hang by my hair in eternal fire for my sin of going absout without covering my hair.
do you do I does anyone know? No, the do not, so lets not pretend they do. Its a belief, a faith, a conviction.
Not knowledge.
Earlier, I said....If every single individual cell in the body lives, how can the body actually be dead?
Note the use of the word "clinically" used as a modifier for "dead". And the word "considerable" for the amount of time.
The workings of the human mind are of great interest. The bias involved in assuming that the person is actually "dead" and that what happens with the brain under some circumstances is evidence of a "soul" is not helpful in figuring out what is really going on.
To some spiritual beliefs, one's dreams are if anything, more real than ordinary waking life.
Is that true? What is really going on?
Regarding the above, I said, does anyone know? Your post is 100% unresponsive to my observations. All you did was claim to know that there is this god / afterlife thing, which you do not know.
WE have gone over what sin really is because what Jesus actually went through exposes what is inside each human heart, even yours. Audie, you admitted to not being perfect about the effects of betrayal, rejection, false witness, putting folks on personal trial (as you are doing so here), slaying hope and crucifying others hopes and dreams, stealing and breaking hearts, mocking, divide up the goodies and deny the true giver, point the finger of blame and falsify because folks will not conform. We've been done this road already and you certainly know you are not perfect as you practice these things, justify doing them and are doing them.
You cannot escape into your easy believism that there is nothing after death and thus escape consequences of your actions. You have God who is smarter and bigger than any of us leaving us a road map clearly marked out due to its uniqueness on a way back to Him as reconciled to receive and inheritance where there is no more sin, death, sickness... No other message from world's religions have the message that God saves by His grace by seeing what Jesus did upon the cross, exposing and dealing with sin once and for all, and raising from the dead Himself so we to can arise out of our trash heaps which we currently live.
Your brand of faith is mere easy believism. The Christian message is not easy believism, it is a reality of living and becoming acquainted with the God of the universe in a life altering way - that is much harder for folks like you to swallow. It is far easier to believe in NOTHING so you remain and always be NOTHING. Always seeking knowledge of the truth but never quite find it.
Audie, myself and others here on this form Know Jesus and He knows us. He wants you to get to know him. Just call out to him with an honest heart and He will show you.
That is all we can ask.
The length of hair is not the issue - the human heart is with all its abandonment, betrayal, rejection, abuse, mocking, etc and etc...
We all as human beings will one day encounter mortal death. None can escape that. I testify as well as others that there is life after death. You don't have to believe us because the true Christian message is not about making you conform but presenting a simple choice before you when before there was none. Make the right one.
We here are concerned over your eternal state...
Have a nice day

I dont find your condescension amusing. Nor your inventing things about me, such as "My brand of faith / believism" . Nor the list of things you say I practice.
I commented earlier on your 100% unresponsive response. I should have made that 200 percent. Preaching at me is not it.
