Why Would Anyone Want to have?
as Christians, when we are so divided and so full of gossip? I can understand why people … either an atheist or agnostic, or people of other religions besides Christianity and we are looking to ask the same question.
You know … my mother, a devout Catholic, went to confession for a long time after I left the Catholic church, because she thought I had sinned in some way and had failed! But I had grown closer to God when I left. However, my mother had faith as a child through a whole 78 years. Well, I'm not Catholic, but I have faith like a child too. Is not that what matters? And that should ultimately be looking for answers of "truth"? Only the Pope, or the Christ?
(Humbly) I honestly worked through the years to fill the gaps with the ecumenical participation in the type of functions, and once formed an ecumenical choir of children. Regardless of the reasons for the divisions within Christianity, should not we all be trying to bridge the gap and unite? Peace.
The story is told of the great Rabbi Hillel 1st century that it offers a gentle to convert to Judaism if Hillel could teach him the entire Torah while standing on one foot. The rabbi comes to stand on one foot and said: "What you do not find hurtful to the other. This is the whole Torah. Everything else is commentary. Go now and study. "
Jesus, quoting Deuteronomy, said there are two great commandments: First, to love God with all your heart, your soul and your strength, and the second is to love your neighbor as yourself. "On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets." As Hillel, I could have added "all the rest is commentary." We have become so concerned with the comment that we have forgotten the essential, and too often we have become more than Gd in question is on our side that we on the side of God. Because of this, religious disagreement, which is real and the impact of how we understand what we believe, but no less important, too often no longer be pursued with the idea that we can learn from each other and, instead, more concerned with scoring debate points.
The fact is that nobody has all the answers, because "now we see through a dark glass." I tend to think that the most confident that having the answers, I do not understand the question. Remember the remark of St. Augustine: "If we can understand, is not God."
Grace and peace be you.
Mark 9:40 "for those who are not against us is for us."
Why no one wants what we have? I can understand the question completely. Christianity has become so diversified that there is no peace between denominations. It is "believe or think is wrong and I do not think that is what God wants for us. We should be working together and working through our differences to achieve a common goal. Should be sufficiently strong in our belief that the small difference in the faith does not really matter. After all, look at the company Jesus keeps. He accepted people from all walks of life and all faiths. He tried to bridge the gaps in his life. I think this should be our goal as well.
Unity in the cost of sound biblical doctrine is not what God had in mind.
Truly, there is absolutely nothing interesting about what Christianity has to offer, through what is seen in R & S.
Goinpuru Just listen when he says "good biblical doctrine" what it really means is the good brand of biblical doctrine. It is people like this that make Christianity look ridiculous.
Jesus prayed for unity among his followers.
By joining the church, the Kingdom of God will be visible even better!
All theology (teaching) should lead to doxology (in honor of God)
Theology (teaching) is not more important, but Theophily (love God).
After the reverence for God, doing what God wants.
What About Christian Unity? See article by Keith Green: http://ezek27.truepath.com/unity.html
Um. I will go with the first answer. She is the point.
Impeccable.
Many questions! Well, that ultimately must rely on the truth must be God. He gave us prayer and the Holy Spirit for a purpose. You can learn many truths through different things in your life, and when one recognizes, is the Holy Spirit telling. Confused about something, ask God. I think there are a bunch of idiots "my church is true" type of thing. If you think about it, most of the names have the same basic beliefs, which is what is important. If you are someone who can understand that and can see more of the characteristics that make us all Christians, instead of noticing the differences, and which would be huge hurtle between people … that is important. I would like to think that spiritual growth.
I believe in God and his word, I believe that God gave His Son
for all that we can have faith and be with him, I do not like all the new religion to say, s the people, pursuing
your life as you want because God does not care and do not sin, that is a lie of Satan, I believe the Bible.
You need Jesus Christhttp: / / http://www.whateverycatholicshouldknow.c …
