I know many Christians don't believe it but God has the FINAL WORD! And the GOOD NEWS is the triumph of grace. Sorry free will, you don't get the last say after the transition. While here in the third dimension, our free will can do just about anything it wants- subject to the karmic laws of the universe (on this side). But there will come a time later when we truly see the LOVE of the Father and every knee will bow and every tongue confess- the absolute goodness of God!

Christianity is about FAITH, not doctrine, dogma, or denominational determination. Love is the one and only plan and justice is not the fall back or back up plan in case were really, really bad

My FAITH in the resurrected Jesus, who became the Christ, is not validated or authenticated on on any physical object, nor the inerrancy of the Bible. I know for many the Bible is an idol and to prove one thing as not true seems to destroy their faith. I have "experienced" God, am experiencing Him, and I am ONE with Him and Jesus prayed that we would all be.

I sit in the right hand seat of the cockpit.

God is not my co-pilot, like a lot of bumper stickers like to proclaim.

In the crucifixion, mankind that lived in that day basically said NO and REJECTED God in favor of their LAWS and RITUALS (like washing hands before you eat and not healing on a Sabbath day). But the GOOD NEWS is that God REJECTED our REJECTION! Can you see that, accept that?No matter what you think, no matter how deviant your free will is or becomes, God says I LOVE YOU and I will REDEEM you- restore you.

Jesus was an is our MODEL- Follow Him!

And with the resurrection and ascension, Jesus proved to us that God is truly our SAVIOR. Death cannot keep us from the love of God- only reacquaint us with that reality. As II Timothy 1:9-10 says, the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus destroyed the eternal concept of death.

Now let us LIVE as we were purposed- for Him!

Does Anything Exist Like Islamic Terrorism?
By: Nawaz | 11/10/2008
Islam has nothing to do with those who commit acts of terrorism. Therefore, it is wise to differentiate Muslims (who are exercising this) and Islam. Just as acts of terrorism committed by Christians cannot be attributed to Christianity (like in bosnia & india), acts of terrorism committed by Muslims must not be attributed to Islam or its teachings.
