Where is the love of God in this web site?

some history....

THE OLDEST SECULAR ACCOUNTS & HISTORICAL EVIDENCE ON THE EXISTANCE OF JESUS OF NAZARETH

1. Cornelius Tacitus (AD55-120) Roman historian: Most acclaimed works are the Annals and the Histories. The Annals cover the period from Augustus Caesar's death in AD14 to the death of the Emperor Nero in AD68, while the Histories begin after Nero's death and proceed to the reign of Domitian in AD96. In the Annals, Tacitus alludes to the death of Christ and to the existence of Christians at Rome. See Annals XV,44: But not all the relief that could come from man, not all the bounties that the prince could bestow nor all the atonements which could be presented to the gods, availed to relieve Nero from the infamy of being believed to have ordered the conflagration, the fire of Rome. Hence to suppress the rumor, he falsely charged with the guilt, and punished with most exquisite tortures, the persons commonly called Christians, who were hated for their enormities. Christus, the founder of the name, was put to death by Pontius Pilate, procurator of Judea in the reign of Tiberius: but the pernicious superstition, repressed for a time, broke out again, not only through Judea, where the mischief originated, but through the city of Rome also." (The misspelling of Christ as "Christus" was a common error made by pagan writers). It is interesting that Pilate is not mentioned in any other pagan document which has survived. It is an irony of history that the only surviving reference to him in a pagan document mentions him because of the sentence of death he passed on Jesus the Messiah.

2. Suetonius: Roman historian and court official during the reign of the Emperor Hadrian. Suetonius wrote in his Life of Claudius: "As the Jews were making constant disturbances at the instigation of Chrestus, he expelled them from Rome." (Life of Claudius 25.4). Chrestus is a misspelling of Christus; the spelling probably assumes that the spelling of Jesus' title "Christos" was the same as ate ChiRho symbol which was also a literary device which indicated a quote worthy of note = the 'chrestus" symbol. Claudius' expulsion of the Christians form Rome is mentioned in Acts 18:2. This event took place in 49AD. In his work Lives of the Caesars, Suetonius also wrote: "Punishment by Nero was inflicted on the Christians, a class of men given to a new and mischievous superstition." Assuming Jesus was crucified in the early thirties, Suetonius places Christians in the Roman capital less than 20 years later and he reports that they were suffering for their faith and dying for their conviction that Jesus had really lived, died and that He had risen from the dead!

Friend..Dont lose heart..I like your post..Dont have to look far..Hee Hee, some who share your light and hope..visit here often:). Dont think its missing entirely..Some seek it..even though they have a funny way of showing it..Chin up! Forward!

No OP the name of the website does not pertain to CHRISTIANITY.

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Hey, should I tell him how we handle the fags around here? I could toss up at least 10 bible verses on that subject, but it's usually much quicker, easier, and more effected to just whip out the ole Pastor of Disaster who can quickly quote them all from memory!

The new atheism

IT appears that triple n yc may not just be whistling Dixie
or maybe he is...let us reason some of it out.

Jesus Saves, are you familiar with the history of "the" church?

I assume you agree that there is plenty of evidence that Yeshu was a Nazorean from Mt. Carmel who reportedly did many things that were written about him. And that after his death a church was formed in Jerusalem around his memory and teachings by Mary Magdalene, disciples, and others who walked with him?

Mighty God is a living man. You can fool some people sometimes, But you can not fool all the people all the time.

This site will open your eyes...there is also anti-chick tracks

You are infected with the redeemer complex and salvationist virus . Wake up to your own beliefs. Why would a God who has conceived and borne intimate witness to all manifestation and life throughout the vast multi-dimensional realms of ineffable splendor – over countless aeons and through infinite iterations of mind-boggling dynamic evolution – really care what individual human beings choose to eat, drink, wear, say or believe? the ill-tempered God who demands we follow his rulebook to have even the slightest chance of a pleasant afterlife. The embedded ideas of sin, submission and redemption don’t fit at all. Any God who is totally externalized, who is wrathful, vengeful and jealous, who requires us to wear certain clothes, observe special rituals, avoid particular foods and who thinks it’s a good idea that we fear him – is no God that I would acknowledge. Any such entities, however much fire and brimstone they can conjure, are in actuality, just the deceptive bunch of alien chancers known as the Archons.

Yeah, but kind of scary knowing that there are people out there who think like this.

oh you're really far gone. No turning back for you, a true brainwashed one.

Fr. Barron comments on Stephen Hawking & more tired atheism

For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world--Faith. Who is he that overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

we're letting you live for now, sometimes with suffering added in if you deserve it, what else do you want?

Wow! That's not very INCLUSIVE!
True Christianity is very EXCLUSIVE.
Many so-called christians have been taught that you
say a prayer, walk down the aisle, come to the altar,
and then you're "IN".

They then go home and their lives are indistinguishable
from their pagan neighbor's lives. Sometimes worse.

Jesus said:

MATTHEW 7

21 Not every one that saith unto me,
Lord, Lord,
shall enter into the kingdom of heaven;
but he that doeth the will of my Father
which is in heaven.

22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord,
have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name
have cast out devils? and in thy name done many
wonderful works?

23 And then will I profess unto them,
I never knew you: depart from me,
ye that work iniquity.

Can We All Agree that God is Love?

God's love keeps us alive so there is a God, if we simply came from matter and now we are intelligent reasoning beings, then at what point in time did the particles before the big bang acquire reason? the particles from the beginning had to be reasoning and intelligent for us humans to be reasoning and intelligent, but what made them intelligent? God was the first mover or the intelligent being that is the beginning and end, which is why we can't comprehend in our finite lives the existence of an infinite God. So God as an infinite and intelligent being created us 'humans' in his own image to be reasoning and intelligent. If we came to be humans from evolution, which is a great lie- then we'd be all living in planet of the apes, where other animals are at a similar intelligence level as us 'humans'.

God exists and God is Love. Through the fall of mankind with sin- which keeps man separated from God, God sent Jesus and he died for us, which was the greatest act of love. Through this act anyone who wants salvation will get it by choosing with their free will to repent, follow Jesus, and God's commandments, while living from the example of a life that Jesus showed us how to live...

Thread: Can We All Agree that God is Love?

Anybody?
True enough so far?

Why do we need to overcome the world? The world is beautiful and sacred.

Why would God care if we believe Jesus is his son? Why, just WHY???

just like everything else, divided straight down the middle, sheeps to the right, goats to the left

read the new testament - esp the 4 gospels of Jesus & you will see

There are a handful of us that do this every single day. Where have you been? We are here every day.

Fuck that, You think i'm going to indoctrinate myself. I Don't need to read it because I already know the Earth is sacred and we are a human family that should love each other unconditionally. I will not see if I read the Bible, I will just be blind. I will say this one again. Christians, Jews and Muslims are being deceived by the Archons.

Read a book called Not In His Image buy John Lash

we simply live in the world but can not be of the world- attachments that separate us from God

John 14:6
Jesus saith to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No man cometh to the Father, but by me

Understand Jesus suffering on the cross

Nearly right Merry ... If you are allegedly a Christian, and Christ is allegedly your saviour... It is his words that are represented in the 4 gospels that you should study.
Shouldn't you? Christian = Christ = Jesus?

Paul and the rest were JUST HUMANS... so there is a fair potential risk of them getting it wrong.

eg. 1 Corinthians 14:34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but to be under obedience, as also saith the law.

UNLESS of course you are happy for women to be silent on religious matters.

But when you study what Jesus said precisely... you will find that Christianity has it wrong.

But do the Churches preach Jesus' word?

A little example for you

Jesus on prayer ... Matthew 6 5-8

And when thou prayest, thou shalt NOT be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

Does your Church follow these simple rules? If not why not?

Did a lil research..OP new to GLP battlefield! welcome:) Better be ready..Ive seen good run down like mire in the streets here! know your facts! no half hearted advance on the WALL!!!

Here is The Love of God in Isaiah chapter17,verse1.....................1The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.

Bullshit, You may believe that you cannot be of this world but I see that there can not be any other possibility. God is not separate from this world therefore I am not separate from God. Why do I need to understand a man being tortured to understand divinity?

This site is like a mirrow. People here show what they are. If The Father is a strong being they show that, if not they show a God out of them.

En este lugar se muestra lo que cada uno lleva por dentro. A través de sus palabras e intereses cada ser muestra cuan evolucionado su Dios interior se encuentra.

En todo caso, quien busca encuentra, y no cabe duda de que algunos pocos seres que visitan GLP buscan.

Un abrazo y que la LUZ esté contigo y con todos.
