Re: A power greater than ourselves.
Hi SC
 
YOU SAID
"Q Ok. That's cool. Who says it's the word of god.
A The bible."
 
MY RESPONSE
Actually, John says...
 
John 1:1-3
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was with God in the beginning.
3Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.
 
John 1:14
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
 
And Jesus says...
 
John 14:6-7
6Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him."
 
You are left with the following
1. Personal Testimony
2. Eyewitness Commentaries
3. Fullfilled Prophesies
4. Historical Documentation
5. And Faith
 
What is faith?
 
Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.
 
Believing God's Word does indeed take an element of faith, though much less than what would be necessary to believe Darwin's writtings.
 
Cultures have clung to their "gods" all through history. What has been the results of them clinging to these "gods" as compared to The True God (aka Christ). Even the children of Israel created a golden calf to worship when Moses delayed and we see where that got them.
 
Noah preached for 120 years about the coming flood while most everyone considered him a fool. Then Noah closed His 8 followers (family) in the ark with him for 7 days (imagine the odor). Everyone continued to make fun of him till they felt that first rain drop. The ark is open once again giving you a choice. Follow false "god's" or the one and only God of the universe. Choose wisely, the ark will not remain open forever.
 
Happy Sabbath

Re: A power greater than ourselves.
Yes Doorman quite so!
Those who worship a jug of milk are clearly heretics,
they should be creamed.....
(as the vampire-lover milks this for all it is worth...)
The 12th order convention in region 12 clearly set down
guidlines which must be followed....
Skim Milk worshipers beware!!!
p.s. In the spirit of brotherly love and tolerance the
San Fransico diocese (and ONLY the San Fransico diocese)
is allowed to worship half & half but only on Thursdays
Diggy
p.s. And a word about the Pope.For the Catholics he is a holy
man who communicates to God...To us worshipers of a carton
of milk,he is a man in a funny hat,riding in a weird shaped
truck.
