Seems the thing to do. Here are a couple verses that are interesting. From the 19th chapter of Matthew.: Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them. But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven. And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence. And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet? Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions. Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved? But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Is it coincidence these two stories about the children, and the rich young ruler seemed to be placed together in scripture? Or is Jesus turning the Israelites world upside down because of the lack of regard for children then, and also the high regard then for anyone who seemed to have been blessed by riches and the status it gave them? What do you think Colleen? dan

RE>>I wish more people would consider the teachings of Jesus Christ.<< Why? Do you wish the whole world would get saved? Do you wish that someone you care much about get saved? Do you just hate the thought of people going to hell? God will save exactly who He wants to the rest will be left to their own devices. We can not fight God we can only try to tell men the truth. That is LOVE. Here is a very big AND 2 Peter 2:9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, ===== AND ===== to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished: We, by the grace of God, can be the godly whom He delivers from this ungodly world. We are called OUT of the world and unclean religions of the world. 2Cor 6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, 18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. The name of Christ is not to be taken into the vanity of the Roman Mass ! X-Mass is unclean - Be ye separate.
