  i am interested to know what you know about jesus and what you really think of his teachings.. the bible says there is only one way to heaven.. jesus said: "i am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the father but by me.

  " (john 14:6) .

  the lord jesus was crucified and shed his precious blood to wipe away our sins (revelation 1:5).

  Terry: Jesus, a sinless man, did NOT DESERVE to be put to death at all?

  It was God's PLAN OF SALVATION!

  Yes Terry it was God's plan. That was the only way to help us - throught the blood of Jesus. His blood to cleanse us. The people were very wicked and the devil was so overjoyed that he was getting his way. Ahhhhh but God is smarter than that, He turned it around. Have you ever had been in a bad situation and somehow or the other it turned out right in the end.? Well that is just what happened. Jesus is alive and well. But don't you just feel to cry when you know what those wicked people did to Jesus for no reason? Tell me.

  eclipse:Just feel happy in your belief that you are going to heaven to be with your savior, and the rest of sinners/ non-believers are going to hell.

  You must not talk like that eclipse. I can't judge you. Only God can judge us and He will judge me too.Why would I feel happy at this point when you say that the rest of sinners/ non-believers are going to hell. (John 3:16)

  Wouldn't it be thier choice to go there? That is not what Jesus taught or what He wants at all. But ofcourse I would feel happy that I am promised to go live in heaven and enjoy things beyond my imagination. They say heaven is on earth but can you really say that? Wouldn't you like to go in heaven and be happy forever too? What if it is really true as Jesus taught? Wouldn't it be better to take that chance than to give it up completely? What do you got to lose?

  Terry what we can "know" about Jesus is next to everything.

  We can trust the information we have as long as it comes from the true source. (ofcourse some of you may roll your eyes at this but the historical basis for his existence was revealed a long, long time ago.

  Jesus was in the flesh when He was born. When He went up into Heaven, His fleshly body had been changed after he died on the cross. He is a Spirit.

  Jesus is Divine most definitely.

  Jesus, a sinless man, did not deserve to be put to death at all. What valid reason was he put to death?

  But, absolutely everything asserted about Him has been proved to be correct and verifiable.

  Thousands of perfectly sincere and intelligent people for two thousand years have would have known about who Jesus was. I am sure your great grandparents know Him.

  This seems pretty solid proof that there is a "there" there.

  White Dove: But, like I said, I never met him nor have I seen anywhere any evidence for his existence the way the Bible tells it.

  Hi White Dove in response to this did you know that many various religions of the world recognises Jesus in some way or the other? There are lots of evidence. The only thing is some people find it way to difficult to believe. Why? It may definitely be true what you have said that you have never met Him. Did you ask to meet Him? Why don't you? Would you like to know how? Somehow I think you already know how, but maybe you feel others would ridicule you or something like that.

  Hi Sad emo btw-your comment on where I got my material shouldn't bother you. (And btw I did not get it from that site). How many times have you read something and did not understand it? How many times have you read the bible and did not understand it? So why are you watching everything I am doing and saying? Maybe I cut and paste this too emo? But this is not the point to argue about. This is not an arguement anyway. Why should it be? That would be absurd right. Ranting and raving is pointless you know. Stop worrying about all that sad emo and tell me WHAT do YOU know about JESUS... and His teachings? I heard or I cut and paste that He is Lord! HE IS THE GREAT I AM. Ponder. love hibie

  i think that's just a tad too arrogant for me.

  Why do you think it is arrogant? Think of a work chart.

  eclipse:

  While Our Eternal Home Is Not this Earth, We Have Two Types of Promises Regarding the Earth

  What are they?

  Eclipse, they are:

  1. The unrighteous will not prosper for ever in this life on earth because God will step in, eliminate them, and give their land to the just. Wouldn't you be happy to be around to see this come to pass? Or do you prefer that it continues. The just will pass it down as an inheritance to their children after them. If you read Psalm 37 and Matthew 5:5 you find these are examples.

  2. Do you know that there will be a period in the future when Christ will reign on the earth for 1000 years (Rev. 20:1-6; Isa. 11:1-10). Do not think that the promise of a period when Christ reigns on earth eliminates the many promises of heaven. A place in heaven has been and is reserved for the saved in general, not for just a few of them. In addition, later, after Christ has ruled as king until God has subjected all things under His feet, He will hand the kingdom over to His Father (1 Cor. 15:24-25).

  And if that is the case, why make humans on earth in the first place, seems redundant and cruel and unusual punishment to me.

  Eclipse, God made us to live on earth to love, prosper and have the best of everything. He gave us our own minds, but people choose to do bad things. Again it's our own fault. Doing the right things is not always easy. No one is perfect but God is mercyful. That doesn't mean we should do wrong things just to be forgiven. It doesn't work that way. Do we ask forgiveness?

  Hi. I am interested to know what you know about Jesus and what you really think of His teachings.

  The Bible says there is only one way to Heaven.

  Jesus said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6)

  The Lord Jesus was crucified and shed His precious blood to wipe away our sins (Revelation 1:5). If you really think about this you may consider that the function of human blood in the body is to keep it healthy and alive. Well the same is true of the blood of Jesus. His blood keeps the body of Christ healthy and alive.

  Another of the main functions of the blood in the human body is to facilitate cleansing of the system. This is also one of the main purposes the blood of Jesus does for us. As members of the body of Christ, we are in need of cleansing when we come to the Lord. This cleansing process is an ongoing operation, as we walk in the Lord, so that we will remain free from sin.

  Have you ever thought about Jesus this way? Or does it sound to easy to believe? Jesus taught so many things and forever it will be implanted in our hearts. Is it too difficult to understand that He taught only good things to us? He was sinless.

  Lavendar: According to the WTS, when the big A comes, God will destroy everything & everyone (with the exception of good JWs).....correct? And the earth will turn magically into a paradise.

  How is this supposed to be acheived? How will the 6,000,000 JWs bury BILLIONS of decaying bodies; prevent the spread of decease; build back city infrastructures; restore power; find clean water & food; etc. etc.??

  How do they explain this?

  Hi Lavendar. Jehovah's Witnesses have usually been convinced that only the 144,000 will go to heaven. This is the opposite of what the Bible teaches.

  Do you like reading? Try these.

  Matt. 8:11, Pet. 1:3-4, 2 Cor. 4:18-5:2, Phil. 3:20, Matt. 18:3, Matt. 5:3, Matt. 5:10, Matt. 5:12.

  Believers in Christ Go To Be With Him and His Father

  Where are Christ and His Father?

  One day Jesus will return from heaven.
