Who is god's father and mother?
I'm not talking about Jesus. I'm talking about the almighty "God" ......"Him... "That guy/ girl?" Who was his grandparents? Who taught him? Who raised him? Who was his grandparents? Who was his ancestors? If god is the only "one" Why did not he have Parents? Family who raised him? Was god a girl? What race was he or she? Was he/she an animal of some sort? With wings? I look up to the sky. Why is there so much hatred in the world? What can I do to change that? Even if so much hatred, how do I fix that. Why are people so upset? I don't deny, nor do I believe. I do not use reference. Nor do I assume such harsh words. I am in the middle of it all. I only care about the universe I live in. I do not hate, I help humanity in need and nature. Humanity does not deserve war. Someday, We will reach the sky and when we do. We will have changed.
Will god eventually save everyone on earth?
i wanna hear your guys view. upon reading from many websites and all , i am very disturbed by one person post. he said something like whats the point of going to heaven when everyone you loved , be it your parent , your friends , your wife , your child all go to hell? some religions state that other religion other than it will go hell . so for example , if i am this religion call xyz, but my wife ,my parents who arent , and will never convert , goes to hell becos my religion says so . i would be very sad even though i may or may not recall them after i died and its disturbing to know that . they might be stubborn or wadsoeva in your eyes but they are the very person who fed me , protect me , who love me for what i am and due to different religion they arent with me? for this reason , thats the purpose i am not converting to other religion and i am sticking with my parent religion , so wherever they go , i will follow . it may be naive to u guys , but still i wanna hear ur view
Should I allow my godchild to call me mom after his mother has passed away?
I totally agree with you , the child should be able to call you whatever he/she feels comfortable with...Right now the child is so young and he only sees you and your husband now in his life and not his parents, so its only natural that he is gonna see you as mama now...But I would deff. make sure to keep his parents alive in his memory and heart as he grows up... My younger brothers mom died of cancer when he was only 2 yrs old and my dad and step sister took over raising him and he for yrs called her mom, but also knew of his mom, had pics of her growing up and a tape she made him, ( she knew she was dieing so she made him a tape and wrote him a letter ).... Good luck on him and may God bless you
Why did Christ say, "I have come not to unite, but to separate...father will turn against son, daughter against mother...etc.," as seen in Luke chapter 12, verse 51-53?
This is one of the "hard sayings" of Jesus. It must have shocked some of his hearers, and it is shocking to us when we discover it in Scripture. But it is in the Bible and we have to deal with it. Indeed, I think it states a profound and necessary truth.Jesus never sought to be "politically correct." He did not say what people wanted to hear, but what was true. He did not adapt to people; he expected people to adapt to God's truth as he spoke it. He said that his words, which were given to him by his Father (John 12:49), spoke a universal truth that would outlast the physical universe. "Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away" (Matthew 24:35). He said that his words would be the test by which men would ultimately be judged (John 12:48). I think we need to take all of his words very seriously.It appears in stark contrast to other promises that the Savior would bring peace. However, if we read this passage in the context of the prophetic tradition — which Luke draws on throughout his gospel — we realize that Jesus is challenging his listeners just like the prophets of old did before him. He denounces all manners of injustice and wrongdoing, calling for repentance and conversion. By calling his listeners to consciously and explicitly choose to walk in God’s ways and turn from injustice, he points out the human reality that the peace will be disturbed because there are others who will not repent of their evil doings. When prophets issue challenges, they always disturb the peace. The division is not created by the prophets or by Jesus, it is a natural outcome of listeners making different decisions about whether to follow Jesus or not. Just so, Jesus declared “Whoever is not with me is against me” (Luke 11:23).
Did Adam and Eve have sex with their children?
Adam and Even were married as told in Genesis 2:23–24.And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.So they would have remained faithful to one another and would not have had any sexual relations with anyone else but themselves. God asked them to go forth and multiply and plenish the earth. And they did. Incest would have taken place between their offspring. Abraham was married to his half-sister Sarah. However, by the time of the children of Israel the earth was plenished and God instructed Moses as a ordinance to outlaw incest. By this time, there were enough people on the earth and so was not necessary for sexual relations to occur within families. However, God still encouraged intermarriage between families and tribes of Israel as not to be spiritually led astray by other pagan nations.
Religion: If Jesus is the son of God, who is his mother? If Mary is his mother, his father is Joseph. How can it be God?
Mary herself agrees with you. Luke Chapter 1:30 And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31 And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.”34 And Mary said to the angel, “How will this be, since I am a virgin?”[d]35 And the angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born[e] will be called holy—the Son of God.Mary herself knew enough about the birds and the bees that there was no way for her to have a baby without having some sperm inside her.Scientifically speaking, a virgin conceiving is not possible by any natural means. That’s why Mary’s being pregnant is considered to be a miracle from God. If God can fashion a full grown human man and woman from the dust of the earth (Adam and Eve) then forming a zygote is no problem. If God can create a point of singularity and then cause it to explode and organize into the finely tuned universe we have now, then a zygote is really no big deal to Him.Joseph is considered by Christians to be a sort of step-father to Jesus or more accurately Jesus’ earthly father. I know James and Jude were considered to be “half-brothers” of Jesus (Mary was their mother but Joseph was their father).
Why would anyone disagree with being a single parent?
Storyinthephoto - Thumbs up to you, because you are allowed to have your opinion. And I do see your point in some cases, I really do. However, not all single parents fall into the groups you were talking about. I'm not going to go into my personal life here, but let's just say my son's father turned out to have a double life that I knew nothing about after knowing him for over 10 years. Anyways, I just wanted to thank you, because yes, my question was directed at an answer you left on a different question (you know which one). I do appreciate you answering.
