  • What is the commandment/law/requirements of serving God?

    For instance, churches are known to have many graven images (or idols/statutes). However, Exodus 20:4,5 says, "you must not make for yourself a carved image or a form like anything that is in the heavens above or that is on the earth underneath or that is in the waters under the earth. You must not bow down to them nor be induced to serve them, because I Jehovah your God am a God exacting exclusive devotion, bringing punishment for the error of fathers upon sons, upon the third generation and upon the fourth generation, in the case of those who hate me."

    A scritpure true to form, yet, people wear jewelry of Jesus on the cross, bow down to idols in the churches (ex. Virgin Mary, Jesus on cross). Nevertheless, these people think they are serving God and/or Jesus. But these same people smoke, abuse alcohol, use profanity like a sailor and lead immoral lives. If Jesus were on earth today, would he be pleased with that kind of worship? Something to think about....The floor is yours...

  • Is Satan the Devil a god? If so, god of what? If not, why do you say so?

  • Are there any scriptures or principles in the Bible that says that you cannot smoke?

    Many people do not believe something unless they see it in writing, with the exact words to whatever the reference is. Many people say that the Bible does not specifically say that you cannot smoke. However, does that mean that there are not any principles regarding this? What do you think?

  • If you consider yourself a "religious person," then why do you smoke, curse, etc...?

    I have known many people who consider themselves spiritual, religious, churchgoers; yet, they smoke, curse like a sailor, lead immoral lives, committ crime and fornication. Does your God allow you to do these things? Are you one of those who put more $$$ into the basket, sing higher or "do more things to praise God," thinking that your amount of $$$ that you dropped in will cover your sins? Are you a "holy person" or a "holy-faker" leading a double life? Are you bold enough to confess? Go ahead, that is, if you dare! Give me some feedback here. I look forward to the responses...

  • If You Call Yourself A "Follower of Jesus," Why do You Involve Yourselves in Politics?

    There are many today who claim to "believe in Jesus," but why do you get involved in politics? Or, why don't you go door-to-door, city-to-city, village-to-village and preach like Jesus did? At the same time, you hate your fellowman. Can you really call yourself a believer of Christ if you get involved in politics? Hit me back with some responses. Oh yeah, I will pose some more questions that will expose some of the religions out there the world over and the world in general.

  • Christmas - Origin of Christmas Celebrated and Santa Claus. Should it be celebrated?

    It is understandable that people celebrate various holidays. However, there are certain holidays that people celebrate but do not know why they are celebrating it. Perhaps this is the case with you. Take Christmas for instance. If you knew the origin of Christmas, would you still celebrate it? These are the facts that people fail to know because the accurate questions are not asked. If you were to ask your family and friends why do they celebrate Christmas, what is their reaction? Are they too embarrassed to answer that question? Do they brush you off? Do they know? Do they care?

    What are your thoughts regarding the origin of Christmas? Even if you knew the origin of this holiday, would you still celebrate it? Hit me up with some answers.

    Thanks,
