God sounds kind of selfish, he makes all these people the way he wants, then he will punish us if we dont pray to him daily and worship him?
man you got it all wrong
You got that right

I believed the same exact thing. God preaches forgiveness but is unforgiving... I continually told myself that, until you realize that God never punishes anyone.

God has a plan for everyone's life. That doesn't mean that is how it will in an "Earthly" manner.

In every situation that one is presented with, one can make many different decisions that will promote multiple outcomes (both positive or negative).

An example of this can be sexual impurity. Most know that all sexual activity is prohibited before marriage. When in a difficult situation, God will present one with many opportunities to get out of the situation and turn it into a positive.



God is extremely forgiving, and unpunishing. He will love every person, no matter the details.

To know that God has a plan for us all, and counted each number of hair on our head is incredible isn't it?

yeah God is pretty much THEE s***
For some reason, i don't think God is going to like the props you just gave him I don't believe that anyone who isn't religious is going to hell. I use to be catholic but i feel the Catholic church is alienating itself from its parishioners. Some of the things they have said and done in the last 5 years has really turned me off of them along with my grandparents who are devout Catholics. Not standing up for the extremist Muslims but Mossy you ever heard of the Crusades? Catholic extremism, just like radical muslims

mossbergman11/OH: Small word of advice, it's really hard for people to understand where another side is coming from when you go and just tell them they are plain wrong, but give no advice and/or guidance/feelings about it. As you stated, "Man you got it all wrong" or something to that matter, you tell him nothing about what you believe is right?

Then coming back with a joke about religion? Come on...

Did they not kill non believers for the sole purpose of ridding them from their land? Hmmm think about that for a second

I am a strong believer in the higher power. He, and only He is the way to get into Heaven. I am the first to come from a Nazarene Church .

It does not matter what religion you are, there is not point in putting others down. The single and onlyway to get into heaven is to have an incredible and intimate relationship with the Lord. This means praying to Him, reading His word, and often times, fellowship. A Baptist is the same as a Catholic is the same as a Methodist.

Some may or may not believe that you need to go to church to get into heaven. I do not believe you do, based on what I have said previously. Meeting with a body of believers that you are close with is exteremly helpful (thus a church).

Love the Lord and spread His word. Don't be affraid to stand up for what you believe in, and be open to others.



bayou_buckslayer, Thank-you very much for starting this thread. I used to come here alot, and now not so much, but it is really great to see your commitment!
I'm from the nazarene church too! Born and raised. I go to mount vernon nazarene university now as well! I believe that God loves us all and wants the best for us. But it is our choice to follow him. And if we don't then yes, I believe hell is the punishment for that. But it is our choice. God does not choose for us, we choose. Christ died for our sins, and we just have to accept his invitation of forgiveness and then try to live for him. We will mess up, but his grace covers all. and as long as we are honestly trying and honestly repentant than we are doing the right thing.
