Bob,

Very well said. Sam is a good friend of mine from a stock trading thread and we have gone round and round about this. He's a pretty tough character, but a heck of a nice guy, so good luck to you....ggg

Sam...you are in my prayers buddy.

Paul

Sorry you took so much time to type the bible quotes to me. I expect I have studied the scriptures about as much as as any other. I can excuse your telling me I am the anti christ. There is no anti christ except in the minds of people. Doesn't exist in reality.

Your religion sickens me because it ruined my life. There is more harm in Christianity as it is taught today than other other evil. More people were murdered in the name of Christ than died in all the wars thru eternity. The beginning of the Christian era was the birth of the "Dark Ages."

I do not have to believe in God. I know God and he dwells in me.
You have no historical proof of the miracles, or the facts concerning Jesus. Get on the internet and search for Piso. It will take you to a site that shows how the Romanswrote it to control a conquered world who was rebelling at slavery.

Nobody likes to admit they are wrong. Speaking as a believing Christian for 40 years, who attended a bible college, and went to Church if the doors were open, I do not need to hear the bible quoted.
The big difference is I read this great book with my own realization and not what someone else tells me it means. Like any good parable it is for your individual understanding.

For example: consider God is electricty. (powr) We are light bulbs. (depending on God's power to exist as light. Without God flowing thru us we could not exist. If we die or our bulb burns out, all the other bulbs will continue burning. God is. All other things just seem to be.

On quoting Jesus you failed to get the point of God the Father in him speaking and doing the good works. Not Jesus the Man but the Christ Spirit in Jesus the man.
