I admit that dragons would be cool but it just seems too good to be true. One thing that I've always wondered: Jehovah's Witnesses believe that there will be a new Heavens and a new earth. (Isaiah 65:17; 2 Peter 3:13) We believe that this is the "re-creation" that Jesus referred to. (Matthew 19:28 ...

The first time I repented was the first time that I knew Jesus Christ was real, and that He is the Savior. I felt a strong, peaceful feeling that I've never felt before. I cannot generate that feeling in myself-- I've tried. I know it came from the Spirit, just as one knows that the sun makes you wa...

Economy cashing in.
Ahhh, yes. Isn't living in a recession great? I've been gone a while since I was busy buying a house. (I still will probably be gone a lot, since I have a life now.) I probably would have just moved into an apartment and saved up my money for a bigger down payment, but with all the incentives right ...

So, if we assume God exists, and the Bible was inspired by him, but we want to know if what he is saying is right? In the Scriptures, there are several times that He tells us how. Matt. 16:13-17 tells us that truth about God must come from God. I'm really glad that someone finally mentioned that we ...

This will vary on the person. In my own opinion, I think it is God that leads to Truth. If we want Truth, it is only through God that we can receive truths that are beyond our own experience. But I wouldn't disagree with someone that says that they take the truths that they do understand with their ...

Two answers: A: Define God in such a way that the question is not a paradox. or B: Dismiss the question since it does not make sense. Yes, I believe that there are many things about God we don't understand with our imperfect, mortal minds. Both may be true, but I vote for B, since it doesn't depend ...

I find it interesting that sometimes when Jesus heals someone, he says "Go and sin no more." Does that mean the affliction they had came as a result of sin? But obviously from the story you quoted of the blind man, although sin may lead to disabilities, we can't say that disabilities come from sin. ...

I believe that death is when your spirit is separated from your body. In my own opinion, most people are afraid of death not because of pain, but because of the unknown. Even for those that believe we go on to a better place, it can still be frightening because we want more details. Like, will the l...

Sorry Jebus, I missed your posts. So, your question was, "How does someone reject God?"? In terms of what? In general anytime we sin. But rejecting God in terms of going to hell, not repenting of our sins. But then your next sentence seems to try and get at something more. If I understand you right,...

Yes, that's right. We believe that the fall was a good thing, and that they wouldn't have had children. There are other things I could say, but that's a big one.
