Christians: Do you believe Jesus is the only way?
by sabastious ini was walking around town and a guy on a bike comes up to and shoves a cardboard bum sign in my face with "jesus is the only way" written in classy sharpy marker.. check out this scripture:.
john 14: 6 - jesus answered, "i am the way and the truth and the life.
no one comes to the father except through me.. according to this scripture the guy's sharpy message was correct.. do you believe this message?.

This is not an occult science. This is not one of those crazy systems of divination and astrology. That stuff's hooey, and you've got to have a screw loose to go in for that sort of thing. Our beliefs are fairly commonplace and simple to understand. Humankind is simply materialized color operating on the 49th vibration. You would make that conclusion walking down the street or going to the store.

Mainly, how awesome I am. I have noticed several threads that are NOT about how awesome I am and, frankly, it's a little disturbing. I might also be drunk. That, however, only increases my awesomeness.

The Issue is Not that God WANTS Us to Suffer...
by AGuest indear ones.
rather, it is our adversary who says we will do anything... anything... to avoid it.
a-n-y-t-h-i-n-g. even curse god to his face.

It is you, dear NVL... who lives in fear.
I am it in fear of any particular thing, my dear. And peace to you. Try again :)
what is there to FEAR?
Nothing....
That is why I responded as I did to your perception of "falsifiability." You have already drawn your conclusion
What do you think falsifiability means? It's clear you miss what it means since it means you CANNOT draw conclusions, but rather must test and provide conditions, test criteria, evidence, etc.
without ever even bothering to run a test
I will happily run one. Give me a hyothesis, conditions, observations, criteria and expected results and I will absolutely run a rest. I promise.
and because they ARE stories and so unproven... you reject the entire premise. Not very "scientific,' IMHO.
See above. Stories are unscientific. Give me above and we can easily prove you true.
Think "dog whistle," dear NVL... but 'oh so much more advanced'... as is the hearing that such a "whistle" calls to. Peace.
Oh, like a really high pitched dog whistle that only certain dogs can hear, but they can't agree on exactly what the noise is? Perfect analogy!

Nations are nations.
Any other suggestions?
I think we are asking. Who are they?

Read Luke chapter 12 verrrrry carefully.
Noteably that chapter says that Jesus is not an arbiter and to not worry. Is there something else you had in mind?

Throughout the Book, depending upon translation, Christ's followers are referred to as saints, servants, or slaves, never as nations.
Soooo, nations are ???
The nation of Israel was often a follower of god and, since christ is the reflection of god, of christ too. Since Israel was a nation, were they not a follower or christ? or was christ not a reflection of god? Or does "nations" mean "Jews"?

Were you backed into a corner, dear one (and, of course, peace to you!)? You? By little old me? Seriously?
Of course not. I've been here the entire time waiting for for you :)
Ummm... about half the post...
Be specific :)
Well, see, that's another difference between you and I. I think you... and your opinions... are worth my time.
I think both yours and Tec's are too. The reason I don't respond to everything is that the answer is the same to so many thing. Answered once is enough, my dear.
Truthfully, I think all of the points were salient and most of them "too hard" for you (because they're too "elementary"). I believe you did read it all, but simply couldn't comprehend
Feel free to point one out. Something I have noticed is that those in the"you don't get it" camp, such as you and Zannahdoll, do, is claim that and then NEVER EVER back it up with anything except "GOD told me" or "let's agree to disagree". I have yet to back down and find something I don't understand that you folks have said.
If there is something you feel I am not getting, please please please point it out.
you aren't the first and most probably won't be the last to find themself in this position. (And for those who believe I am being "condescending" toward dear NVL, I ask that you kindly withhold your opinions, as I believe he and I have now formed a "relationship" wherein WE know what we can and cannot say to one another at this point...)
My darling, of COURSE you can tell me this. We, you, me, tec, Zannah, we should be able to be completely honest and loving at this point. And I know I am not the first nor shall I be the last to find myself debating with people that change the rules and goalposts as it suits them :)
All "scripture" is inspired. "Scripture" is those parts of [the Book of] Moses, the Psalms, the Prophets, and the Revelation... that have not been tampered with but remain as they were when given to men while they were in spirit.
Now, the word of my Lord to you is that if you want even more detail you have two choices: (1) you can... and should... go directly to him as to which books, parts, or verses you are concerned about... and put FAITH in what he tells you; or (2) if you are still unable to hear him, you can ask any one of his servants and they will be permitted to answer you. Problem is, WHO is his servant... and how will YOU know? Which takes you back to choice one.
I am asking you. If you are his servant, this should be easy for you. It's a simple list :)
Not pointing fingers, dear one, not at all. Just pointing OUT truths. That you can't receive them is on you. Again, we hear what we WANT to hear with regard to things of the spirit... and don't hear what we don't want to. Even if it's the truth.
Of course you are. You blame the receiver when the transmitter is all powerful, all knowing and should be able to overcome any receiver problems as he has done many times in the past. And you just did with the "on you" part. That's almost the best part, that you all blame everyone else for not hearing even as you cannot defend what you say with logic, reason or the Bible and you don't even see it.
Of course, my love, peace

NVL - And even though we do that we will still form our own point of view. Everybody does, even you.
Of course we do. However, suggesting that all POVs are equal is silly at best.
