Ok I understand now and I really think you've got me wrong though there were no word games. I honestly wanted nothing other than a clarification on what you meant. At the moment I'm really taking offence to such claims so you know what maybe you need to take a little lesson from you own...

Alright man. I just want to say I didn't mean to act as Judge over you. Honestly I never thought until now that anything I ever said to you pissed you off. With the volunteer work you suggested are you saying that by doing such things God will touch me as you say and I won't be able to forget...

Wow sorry. I didn't mean to offend you. Show me what you mean. I'll shut up and listen. I was just trying to clarify that I didn't mean to say that we need to earn the grace but that we could separate from and reject it through our action. Is that not what Mortal Sin is? I guess I'm wrong...

Yes if they were a better candidate than the other guy.

Situations are different. Like I said it's more of a rejection of Christ. The man on there death bed would receive salvation for he hasn't rejected Christ by he actions. However a person can accept Christ as God and absolutely mean it but if 2 days later they go kill someone without any remorse...

If someone did this we would never no because after a certian amount of time it is impossible to learn language.

I think one is Saved through Grace which is achieved by the acceptance of Christ. Or I guess better it would be better phrased as a lack of a rejection of Christ. However one can reject Christ by both belief and action (or lack a there of), so one needs both Faith and Works to achieve...

There are different types because different groups believe different things. As Pope Benedict said before the conclave "In Christ, truth and love coincide. To the extent that we draw near to Christ, in our own life, truth and love merge. Love without truth would be blind; truth without love...

Re: Praying to the wrong god.... Yes some do fortunately for us they are wrong I think that nearly all Christians believe this except for those who think demons are metaphors of our evil

This is exactly why I believe that if a God exists that wishes us to know the truth he would have created a way of guiding us. This is why I think the existence of a divine institution is so necessary and one of the biggest reasons why I'm Catholic. I agree though that we must be ready to...

I don't mean to sound like a smart a** here but if I understand it correctly Muslim is the person and maybe an adjective. Islam is the religion. to put it into something you maybe more familiar with. If you would use the term Jew you say Muslim. If you would say Judaism you would say Islam...

Hello Salim Judgment day is one of the most controversial issues in Christianity so you won't get one answer. I'm defiantly no expert but from the way I understand it Satan Bound 1000 Years happened at he crucifixion and resurrection it symbolizes Satan’s defeat. The Saints Reign with Christ...

However if I understand correctly Muslims don't view demons as being evil angels but a completely different creation.

Just to note I think that Angels have free will they are just so overwhelmed by the grace of God by experiencing heaven that they will that God's will be their own as we will in heaven. (wow! that was a lot of wills and they aren't all the same will either ) I think I understand the Muslim...

hi Salim I think that I feel closer to Judaism. This is because in general Christians (or at least I as a Christian) view Judaism as a precursor to the teaching of Jesus. That as humanity grew as a race He gave more and more revelation culminating in Christ himself. In actuality, a Christian...

But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds." Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do. You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that-and shudder. -James 2:18-9

it doesn't mean it's not funny

Stupidity is also a gift of God, but one mustn't misuse it. ~John Paul II

It depends what you mean by Mainstream. If you mean the majority then I think this would be hard to know for sure because they didn't take opinion polls. But the majority of Christians at the time were Catholics and the Catholic Church teaches that angels had free will but after the fall their...
