Doesn't it seem a little silly to be discussing the features of a specific religion when there isn't the slightest hint of proof of anything supernatural? We wouldn't debate the specifics of a Martian legal system as if it were a real thing, especially not when NASA's rovers have yet to discover even the simplest forms of life.

Who cares? For something so silly, you seem to give it so much importance that you just had to post about it.

He probably went internet-broke the moment you said that. :roll:
I went totally into encouragement and prayer mode ! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! ! : )

Not surprising ... ask some Christians for spare change and they start mumbling at the sky.

Bum: "Help ... me ... please ... uhhn ..."

Mike: "Oh, you poor thing! Be of good cheer! The Day of the Lord is at hand!"

Dave: "I think he needs a doctor, Mike."

Mike: "All he really needs is a little encouragement in the Name of our Lord!"

Dave: "Uh, Mike? Maybe we should call 911 ... ?"

Mike: "Great idea! I'll bet those paramedics would love to hear the Good News, too!"

:wall:


I pray to God in Jesus' name
in his mighty awesome holy name
to never pass up a chance to help someone in a practical way!! !! !! !! !! !! !!
yes God!! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !!
Yes!! !! !! !! !


Sell all you have and give to the poor. Have you done that already?


Jesus was speaking to that young man in particular ------
testing him in particular with that command - because that young man in particular
was allowing his money to get between him and God
though!! !! !! !!
YES!! !! !! !! !!
serving the poor IS DEMANDED!! !! !! !
in love!! ! : )

Where were you when I was homeless, penniless, jobless, and friendless?

Rhetorical question ... I meant "you" in the collective sense; not "you" as an individual.

Step 1: He/She keeps the money to stay alive....

Step 2: He/She continues to help others...

Step 3: ?(or God blesses him/her with money.) (Whichever you prefer.)

Step 4: YOUR PROFIT!
