  RC Church - Originated when ? Spiritually Strong Ones please.

  been doing a bit of research trying to tie in together a few different strands.. not too sure what happened to christianity and how organised religion took hold again after the apostles died off.. i know jerusalem was sacked 70 ce.

  but lots to fill in from that point onwards to bring us to where we are today.. if a few peeps could help to condense and simplify the info down into a few bite size pieces it would give us a starting point to begin to re-educate ourselves to the truth.

  and fill in the blanks.

  Are you going to heaven?

  greetings:are you convinced (with all due humility, of course) of your future destination according to religious beliefs?

  perhaps you'd simply like to journey through outer space, but return eventually to our beautiful planet, earth .

  I imagine either heaven or paradise, either way somewhere better, it's only a blink of an eye, even if in reality a long time has elapsed. If death is the just a "long form" of sleeping, then time will fast forward, and we wake up in the last day, we'll know then. Or maybe there is actually a soul that goes on after death, as believed by countless generations before us, and we'll see angels and Christ himself, again in an instant.

  All conjectures. No living knows, and the dead can't come back to tell us. (There are near-death experiences though) And it's not important at the moment. What's important is what we do and how we obey, if we profess ourselves as Christians.

  He Is Risen, the axial component of christianity

  by designs in

  sunday hundreds of millions and possibly up to two billion people will join in some service in observance of the resurrection of jesus.

  it is the central issue which takes the teachings of jesus from the philosophy of doing good to others to the ultimate truth which it claims.

  it was the axial argument of the apostle paul in 1 cor.

  yeah designs, but after that, he went blind because of that light for three days, then he saw a vision of Ananias coming to baptize him, another disciple of that sect. And indeed the vision came true, Ananias came and baptized him and became a brother. only then that his sight returned to him. Now here are proofs coming from two different person. One was the visions of Paul, the other is the instruction of the Spirit coming to Ananias. (With Ananias risking his neck for this man). But then again, we can always discount these as fabricated stories if we really don't want to believe it. Other than the new testament texts, the only proofs we have of the historicity of Paul is in the writing of the apostolic fathers.

  here's why I'm convinced with Christianity. Paul of Tarsus persecuted early Christians so much so that majority of Christians fled to Syria. Paul followed them there. Then he suddenly did a 360 degree turn in faith. He preached about Christ. What pushed him to do this? What caused his insanity? enduring enormous pain, denying himself family life, respect, prestige, and in the end death if all of this is BS?

  JWs Lack of Love and Feelings

  by jemba in

  i have noticed the extreme lack of love in this group of people who preach love, love, love.. we recently had serious floods come through our area and the jws couldnt have cared less.

  our 'worldly' friends did sooo much for us though.

  raising money, giving gifts, cards, accomodation and so much support and hard work.. i personally think jws are one of the most insensitive, uncaring religions around.. three religious groups were absolutely wonderful during the flooding of our area.

  Do You Believe In ANYTHING That The Witnesses Taught At This Point In Your Life?

  by minimus in

  for example, they pride themselves in what they don't believe such as immortal souls, the trinity, hellfire, etc.. some exjws still believe it is the "truth" and support the basics.. .

  the danger of worshipping idols/images/saints

  the Tetragrammaton (although I learned since then that the obeying His Will is infinitely more important than merely uttering His Name)

  acquired taste and discipline for Bible reading

  the enormous shock of realizing how prophecies can be fulfilled right in front of your nose unnoticed (e.g. antichrists, false prophets)
