1 Corinthians 4:1-21
This is how one should regard us, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. Moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found trustworthy. But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself. For I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me. Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then each one will receive his commendation from God. ...

I know the author on a personal level. He's from the San Antonio area and as a ho e doctor thousands have died under his watch. It's not proof. You'll never have solid proof in a religious debate at the end of the day. "Why" will always lead to speculation. But it can be very interesting if you allow it to be (the book).
At the end of the day, you, me, and whoever doesn't know . We won't know until we're dead.
Which is precisely why I'm not the one making the claim here and why Christians have the burden of proof.
That is why it is called Faith. No scientist or thinker in the world can ever prove God does not exist, Hawking included.
And nobody can prove that the tooth fairy doesn't exist. Why don't you believe in it, too?
ah religion... that's for fools.
Unless you just turn to dirt when you die.
Do you think a primitive living deep in a jungle asks God to forgive him just before getting eaten by a tiger?
no, it's really not the same.
Your right.
That's why I have a "relationship" with Christ.
Thanks for the help
Sup Ln my beantown bud.
All I can say is that your a brave warrior for our nations armed forces at which for that I have extreme respect for you but correct me if I am wrong; Did you not utter the words, "so help me God" when you took the oath?
I know the easy way out is to say that "it doesn't mean I believe in him" (if that's your claim) line but just wanted to point that out.
Seems to me that your employer, traditions withstanding, lean towards the heavenly father.
....just sayin
See you in the finals...
I find TheManFromAcme's inability to directly answer a question amusing.
Good morning redzero.
Inability to answer a direct question?
I have blind faith remember?
Why would you care if I can answer a question regarding my belief in my lord and savior Jesus Christ?
This is an open forum right? You believe in your non-beliefs () and I'll believe in my beliefs.
Just do me a favor. Start bartering for all your goods and services being that your hands may burn using our U.S. currency which so happens to have "GOD" in it.
Good day...dude.
Why believe in something blindly? It makes no logical sense. Faith doesn't do anything. It doesn't print our currency. It doesn't teach us.
You are just ignoring common sense because you are afraid that you might be wrong.
Talk about being amused for not answering a question...
Why do you care that I believe in Jesus Christ? What is your agenda regarding my faith? This is disturbing.
I am logical man and my feet are firmly planted on the ground. I tell you what it is redzero, it seems that you tend to believe that people with strong faith in God can't be logical and are closed-minded regarding science and it's proofs, theories, hypothesis and so on.
I like science. Science is great, but to let it be the only tool to help me understand the universe and it's happenings is not what I subscribe to.
You want to believe that science helps explain everthing there is to know.
I'll give you a hint; It's September 7, 2010 and guess what?.....We still don't know everything and are never going to know everything not in your lifetime nor mine.
God is in control. Sorry it bothers you.
We will never know everything, so that's not science's fault.
However, it is foolish to put the label "God" on what we don't know.
Again, you keep asserting that God is real yet you can't back it up. If you can't even defend your claims, why even make them in the first place?
YOU think it's foolish and if that's what you think, good for you!
Claims? What claims? All I claim is that Christ lives and is coming back. You want a differential equations to expain his second coming? Is that what you want?
I am not a scientist and your probably better versed in it than I am but one thing remains, if it is a blind faith and a blind walk, then it's all mine to have.
I don't know if your atheist or agnostic but whatever the case may be, don't be upset at the people who believe in what you claim you don't believe in.
That has never made sense.
Again, you just afraid that you might be wrong.
And stop saying that you have a right to believe in what you believe in. I never said you didn't. It's just painfully clear that you can't even explain why you believe in what you do.
One last time redzero, I am going to ask you one-more-time....
What am I afraid of being wrong of? I have clearly stated that I believe in God and his doings. I BELIEVE.
Explain in what I do? What is that? That makes no sense none whatsoever.
Faith in God is "something I do"?. That's a new one.
Faith is just that.......Faith. Not to be explained, just lived.
GOD bless you redzero. He will you know.
You keep saying that God exists, yet you fail time and time again to defend your claim.
If you can't prove that he exists, don't say that he is watching over me. I could say that the Flying Spaghetti Monster is watching over you and it would be just as likely.
Good luck to you redzero
God is alpha and omega.
I apologize for not being able to conjure up a mathematical equation for Gods existence.
Your a piece of work zero, truly you are.
I didn't ask for a mathematical equation as evidence for the existence of God. I asked for any evidence at all, and I have yet to see one.
So, why don't you believe in Zeus, Shiva, Ra and so on?
Would that make it more logical if he believed in Zeus? Since we're talking about logic here, why do you see the world so black and white? Either something is or something isn't yet something can't be if you don't have it slap you in the face. Nice logic there buddy.
I never said that something doesn't exist if I have never seen.
If you believe in God without any evidence, why don't you believe in all of the other gods, too? It doesn't make sense to exclude them when they have just as much evidence supporting their existence.
here's a new concept for you redzero.......Free will
