Has anyone noticed that when Christians say "God wants (X)", they really mean "I want (X)?"

And this is why I stopped going to Church. Because of people trying to run modern day crusades.

Whoa. That's a pretty broad statement that you make there. As Christians, it is our goal to allign our wants with God's will. Quite frequently, that requires real sacrifice.

"That goes for everyone from the Pope to Falwell to Graham tp Popoff". Really? What was Mother Theresa in it for?

i think of that a lot of human beings use God to forward thier own ends. yet i understand some people who say that God needs such and such, and that they pick the perfect opposite. own adventure: i wanted to kick the residing sh!t out of somebody, in spite of if (for the main section) i'm a pacifist. i wanted to try this, yet i understand that violence is incorrect. I listened to God, and remorseful approximately that i could no longer injury him like he deserved. yet i'm chuffed that I did the suitable ingredient. he's now suffering his own own hell.

That could be , esp in china , christianity still quiet new relgion , and i found out that most christians here will use ' god ' s name of saying whats they want actually might not saying what " god " want .

i am christian..but i never say' God wants " .. cuz i am not a represtative of GOD.. i am just one kid from his Garden of Love .. this is why i never believe who has baptized are truly christian faith in their hearts .. i think China just trying to make a standard of being a christian ..

Has anyone heard the Roger Waters song that goes "What God wants/ God gets?"...

GOD DOSE NOT SUPPLY OUR WANTS ONLY OUR NEEDS BUT EVEN THEN YOU MUST WORK FOR IT YOU GET NOTHING FOR NOTHING IN THIS LIFE THATS WHY THE BIBLE STATES THAT THE LAZY SHALL STARVE

amen :) I, oops I mean God, thinks the same thing.
