Was just to dynamic of a question. Everyday is different and untelling what might happen. And what's it matter which teachings i fail at or accomplish greatly? What does that have to do with anything? That's getting personal, that's not a biblical discussion or any other type of religious discussion.

Geesh I'm saying there not really true christians. The Bible warns us of these hypocrites, and your right they will use fear. Greedy people they were jealous of the Jews.

Egads, I hear that all the time...so they're only "true" Christians until they're caught then?

The bottom line with me is that no one needs a religion to be moral...and blind faith leads to a place we don't want to go to again.

why you always bring up the subject then try to hide behind something getting personal...you made it personal claiming to be a Christian...besides all you are doing is making excuses why you as a Christian don't follow "ALL" the teachings of Jesus .....a clear lack of faith in Jesus and yourself

1. Only in recent years has science discovered that everything we see is composed of invisible atoms. Here, Scripture tells us that the "things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."

2. Medical science has only recently discovered that blood-clotting in a newborn reaches its peak on the eighth day, then drops. The Bible consistently says that a baby must be circumcised on the eighth day.

3. At a time when it was believed that the earth sat on a large animal or a giant (1500 B.C.), the Bible spoke of the earth’s free float in space: "He...hangs the earth upon nothing" (Job 26:7).

4. The prophet Isaiah also tells us that the earth is round: "It is he that sits upon the circle of the earth" (Isaiah 40:22). This is not a reference to a flat disk, as some skeptic maintain, but to a sphere. Secular man discovered this 2,400 years later. At a time when science believed that the earth was flat, is was the Scriptures that inspired Christopher Columbus to sail around the world (see Proverbs 3:6 footnote).

5. God told Job in 1500 B.C.: "Can you send lightnings, that they may go, and say to you, Here we are?" (Job 38:35). The Bible here is making what appears to be a scientifically ludicrous statement—that light can be sent, and then manifest itself in speech. But did you know that radio waves travel at the speed of light? This is why you can have instantaneous wireless communication with someone on the other side of the earth. Science didn’t discover this until 1864 when "British scientist James Clerk Maxwell suggested that electricity and light waves were two forms of the same thing" (Modern Century Illustrated Encyclopedia).

6. Job 38:19 asks, "Where is the way where light dwells?" Modern man has only recently discovered that light (electromagnetic radiation) has a "way," traveling at 186,000 miles per second.

7. Science has discovered that stars emit radio waves, which are received on earth as a high pitch. God mentioned this in Job 38:7: "When the morning stars sang together..."

8. "Most cosmologists (scientists who study the structures and evolution of the universe) agree that the Genesis account of creation, in imagining an initial void, may be uncannily close to the truth" (Time, Dec. 1976).

9. Solomon described a "cycle" of air currents two thousand years before scientists "discovered" them. "The wind goes toward the south, and turns about unto the north; it whirls about continually, and the wind returns again according to his circuits" (Ecclesiastes 1:6).

10. Science expresses the universe in five terms: time, space, matter, power, and motion. Genesis 1:1,2 revealed such truths to the Hebrews in 1450 B.C.: "In the beginning [time] God created [power] the heaven [space] and the earth [matter] . . . And the Spirit of God moved [motion] upon the face of the waters." The first thing God tells man is that He controls of all aspects of the universe.

11. The great biological truth concerning the importance of blood in our body’s mechanism has been fully comprehended only in recent years. Up until 120 years ago, sick people were "bled," and many died because of the practice. If you lose your blood, you lose your life. Yet Leviticus 17:11, written 3,000 years ago, declared that blood is the source of life: "For the life of the flesh is in the blood."

12. All things were made by Him (see John 1:3), including dinosaurs. Why then did the dinosaur disappear? The answer may be in Job 40:15–24. In this passage, God speaks about a great creature called "behemoth." Some commentators think this was a hippopotamus. However, the hippo’s tail isn’t like a large tree, but a small twig. Following are the characteristics of this huge animal: It was the largest of all the creatures God made; was plant-eating (herbivorous); had its strength in its hips and a tail like a large tree. It had very strong bones, lived among the trees, drank massive amounts of water, and was not disturbed by a raging river. He appears impervious to attack because his nose could pierce through snares, but Scripture says, "He that made him can make his sword to approach unto him." In other words, God caused this, the largest of all the creatures He had made, to become extinct.

13. Encyclopedia Britannica documents that in 1845, a young doctor in Vienna named Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis was horrified at the terrible death rate of women who gave birth in hospitals. As many as 30 percent died after giving birth. Semmelweis noted that doctors would examine the bodies of patients who died, then, without washing their hands, go straight to the next ward and examine expectant mothers. This was their normal practice, because the presence of microscopic diseases was unknown. Semmelweis insisted that doctors wash their hands before examinations, and the death rate immediately dropped to 2 percent. Look at the specific instructions God gave His people for when they encounter disease: "And when he that has an issue is cleansed of his issue; then he shall number to himself even days for his cleansing, and wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in running water, and shall be clean" (Leviticus 15:13). Until recent years, doctors washed their hands in a bowl of water, leaving invisible germs on their hands. However, the Bible says specifically to wash hands under "running water."

14. Luke 17:34–36 says the Second Coming of Jesus Christ will occur while some are asleep at night and others are working at daytime activities in the field. This is a clear indication of a revolving earth, with day and night at the same time.

15. "During the devastating Black Death of the fourteenth century, patients who were sick or dead were kept in the same rooms as the rest of the family. People often wondered why the disease was affecting so many people at one time. They attributed these epidemics to ‘bad air’ or ‘evil spirits.’ However, careful attention to the medical commands of God as revealed in Leviticus would have saved untold millions of lives. Arturo Castiglione wrote about the overwhelming importance of this biblical medical law: ‘The laws against leprosyin Leviticus 13 may be regarded as the first model of sanitary legislation’ (A History of Medicine)." Grant R. Jeffery, The Signature of God With all these truths revealed in Scripture,how could a thinking person deny that the Bible is supernatural in origin? There is no other book in any of the world’s religions (Vedas, Bhagavad-Gita, Koran, Book of Mormon, etc.) that contains scientific truth. In fact, they contain statements that are clearly unscientific. Hank Hanegraaff said, "Faith in Christ is not some blind leap into a dark chasm, but a faith based on established evidence." (11:3 continued)

you are right some can do this and some go out on faith.
That wasn't just christianity that was a politcal machine that turned into a monster. With satan backing it all the way. He can be very deceptive.
I'm not going to turn from my belief because of people being used to do wrong in the name of christianity.

It is and should be use to teach people to seek God not Man. There is crazy out there and history proves it.

Uh, where's there ANY proof that satanism had anything to do with the rise of Hitler? Do you also blame "satan" for The Dippic's horrible deeds? Why not then? Remember, up to a million Arabs have been killed in his quest that was again, like Hitler, gained from the Christian's support.

Does not show a lack of faith in Jesus. I have total faith that i will be judged for the sins i've committed.

Where ever something evil is done, Satan is their causing. Now it's not totally Satan's fault, for it is still the individual that did the action. ALL Satan can do is tempt us to do certain things, he is the reason for evil things, but not the direct cause.

if you don't follow all the teachings of Jesus it is clearly a lack of faith in his teachings ...first believers use Jesus so that they wouldn't have to follow the laws of the God in the Old Testament but now fail to follow all the teachings of Jesus in the New Testament ....how will this place them in the grace of God

Yes I blame satan for the evil in the world and of course Man will let him use them. I believe in good and evil and good comes from God and evil comes from Satan. I hear both I take the way of the good most the time.I've been swayed a few times myself in making choices. But I made the choice and have to live with it. Live and learn.

i can't really agree with that... seems like Satan is a way to put the blame on mans wrong doings... man has unique way of trying to justify everything around him. so when something bad happens, man wants to put a label on and call it the devil, or evil. things just happen, it's the way life is. when a male lion kills the females cubs because they are not his, people don't call that evil. but if a human male was to do that, it would be "just evil"....

Following God is a growing process. Yes we stumble from time to time, we just get up brush the dirt off our knees and continue on. We always keep in mind that stumble so that we don't repeat that same action. It's about where your heart is, is your heart with God and trying your hardest to follow all his teachings, or is your heart in a state of it doesn't matter, or is your heart in a state of ah, the bible isn't true anyways.

We will be judged on our intentions and where we placed our hearts.

why do people blame evil things on Satan and not on God...I don't remember the bible saying that Satan was the one that drown everyone on the planet but believers consider that to be good ....but if Satan did it ...it would be evil?

God created Satan for a reason...to be an angel ..nothing can exist or continue to exist unless God creates it or allow it...this is why evil exist only due to God

Animals don't have souls, they won't be judged. They were put here for our use, food, plow the fields, pull carriages ect.

But yes i agree, Satan shouldn't be given the blame, for it is still our own free will that does these discusting actions.

so is this an indication that when you get married you will stumble from time to time and cheat on your wife because marriage is a growing process ....or are you going to make the decision to not cheat on your wife

this is the same with Jesus..either you are going to make the decision to follow all his teachings or you're not ....which is why if you don't follow all his teachings you are cheating on Jesus with Satan

i think it was more that man got smart enough to understand to help and not kill each other, rather than a soul. If man was to live, they needed each others support to make it back in the early days...if souls exist, why would animals not have them?
