		<description><![CDATA[Jeffy #113, so why is it that you are so special? Why doesn&#039;t your imaginary saviour appear to me? Surely it would be a much greater coup for jesus to &quot;save&quot; a fallen rather than a believer? I guess that your jesus is too busy ignoring the starving children, the cancer victims, earthquake and tsunami victims and all the others who die violently to bother about me, but of course your jesus had time for you.

Totally and utterly unconvincing. The bible makes it clear that it was written by ignorant but imaginative (depraved) humans. The universe does not work as described in the bible. Spend more time studying how things work and less time reading your bible.

You may want to click on &lt;a href=&quot;http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/contra/by_name.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this list of biblical contradictions&lt;/a&gt; to understand why some people reject the fiction commonly called the bible.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wow I am sad that so many have given up, and I have no answer to why Jesus did not make Himself real to you...He did to me and so now I actually get more upset at God then anyone of you ever did or before you stopped believing...because NOW I know that I know He is real

See Jesus made it very clear to me with my own physical eyes to know He is real....

So for me I can&#039;t have your ability not to believe...it would be like one of you to deny that you yourself exist..

I still get mad at Jesus I don&#039;t understand why I have to suffer so much...

But the bible does make it clear this world and the small amount of time our lives are and the suffering we experience....is not even worthy to be compared to what is ahead for us ..

Some of you need to grow up and stop asking for ponies and ask for wisdom, ask for mercy, ask for Jesus to take over and realize Jesus bought you, paid in full He owns you ..your body and soul.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God because God is love. (1 John 4: 7-9) . Even if you arn&#039;t sure what you believe....if you love...than I believe that you know God.!!! whether in our little minds it makes since or not..i think its that simplistic and easy! How wonderful!!! The devil just wants us to complicate it all and jumble it all up...but believing in God is as simple as feeling and believing in Love because they are the same spirit!! YAY]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mr. Anonymous, go read the posts linked by the BIG RED EXCLAMATION POINT at the right hand side of this page.  Please do not post again until you have done this.  This is our &quot;church&quot; and you walked in here spouting your delusions.  You would not take it kindly if we walked into your church and began proclaiming that everything that everybody there thought was wrong.

Then kindly buzz off if you have nothing to offer but preaching.  We&#039;ve heard it all before and it is not welcome here.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[pj11 You had some really annointed answers to some very difficult questions...it was really awesome to read!! I am sure that it sometimes feel exhausting to banter but just remember that you can&#039;t save everyone...and don&#039;t allow their views to change your own!! You are right!! Be at peace knowing that!!!  

Matthew 7:21-23
Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

Proverbs 3:5-7 
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
6 In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.
7 Be not wise in your own eyes;
fear the Lord, and turn away from evil.

---I  see alot ALOT of &quot;leaning on your own understanding&quot; going on in here!!!! hmm this must be why its a bad idea ...look at all the confusion...and look how quickly you are lead astray!



&quot;the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one (1 John 5:19 NKJV)&quot; ( Satan loves confusion and even more he truly loves when someone stops believing!)
