I believe what I believe and I believe that all others are right in their beliefs for themselves. When I feel preached to, which is an insult to me, I then strike out at the perpetrator of this insult. Saving me is not an option available to any human and/or god/s. So if we can discuss Christianity as if it is the same as all other religions, which it is, then we can have a good discussion. There is no TRUE(meaning absolute) religion as all religions have some element of crossover(values, morals, concepts, which they share) there is one true Christ and through him we recieve the blessings of the one true God Ok then explain to me how Christianity can somehow be the only place where this one true God resides, if by your own admission there is no TRUE religion? I dont know as I have never thought of christianity as a place, but rather a label for shared belief in christ |

So the bible is not the base of Christianity?  how could it be when it involves those who existed BEFORE Christ came as well as after....at least in my eyes, Christianity has the base of CHRIST the bible is God inspired history of human history before, during, and after Christ walked the earth |

So the bible is not the base of Christianity? No, it is merely a tool to learn about our father. The bible is not needed to tell others about God, it is not needed to find God, it is not needed to know about God in general. Someone can tell another of how we are suppose to live, what is right with our father and what is wrong without using the bible. I can tell you God loves you without using the bible, God has set up a paradise just for you, will help you in any problem and struggle in life you'll ever have, all again without using the "bible". So where do you get this information that doesn't come from the Bible? Where did you get the information that God has set up a paradise just for me? |

Unless you don't really subscribe to it. God is present everywhere. God isn't worshiped everywhere, but nevertheless God is present everywhere. One doesn't "bring" God somewhere, he is omnipotent. Take for instance an area in the world they don't worship any "religion". God is still there, God isn't a belief that can be handed around, taken away, put away, thrown away, or anything of such. God is omnipresent and just as real as you and I. |

God is everywhere, he is omnipresent. God is in heaven and on earth at the same time. God isn't like you and I where we're here or there, God is EVERYWHERE at once. Also keep the verses on the subject they are talking about, Matthew 7:14 Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it, which you referred to is specifically talking about getting to heaven, not specifically to our father. |

It's like being omnipresent, but without actually being there. God is no more a part of this universe than an architect is a part of the house he builds. That's why God is in three persons. So that one person of the Godhead can always exist separate from the universe and the universe could be constructed around Jesus. |

If you measure the universe you will find that it is constructe around YOU... as You are. for to you I am is your reality. |

It limits the unlimited being. If God is everywhere, then it would have to be assumed there are multiple paths one can take and still find Him. In any case, if all religions are not absolutely true, then Christianity cannot be exempt from that statement can it? |

In any case, if all religions are not absolutely true, then Christianity cannot be exempt from that statement can it? There is one path to God, yes. Because we are not omniscient. We are only in one place at a time. We can not be here and there at the same time. So we have to take a "path". Weather that path is to the store, to the restroom, to anywhere we may be heading at the moment, thus we can only take one route to heaven. Our father which art in heaven is omniscient. He can be here and there at the same time, he is everyone at once. |

You gotta show me how to build a body. I would like to have been just a tad bit taller and a bit more broad at the shoulders. So since for some reason you feel the temple is "built" by you, inquiring minds want to know how this can be done. |

Im not understanding the question. God is present everywhere, whatever labels or cultures men decide upon Right that's my point, which goes against what Christianity teaches, and seeing as you are Christian I do believe goes against your own belief system doesn't it? Unless you don't really subscribe to it. what does 'christianity' teach that contradicts the statement that God is everywhere? Simple, there is only one path to God, and it's through that. It limits the unlimited being. If God is everywhere, then it would have to be assumed there are multiple paths one can take and still find Him. In any case, if all religions are not absolutely true, then Christianity cannot be exempt from that statement can it? There is one path to God, yes. Because we are not omniscient. We are only in one place at a time. We can not be here and there at the same time. So we have to take a "path". Weather that path is to the store, to the restroom, to anywhere we may be heading at the moment, thus we can only take one route to heaven. Our father which art in heaven is omniscient. He can be here and there at the same time, he is everyone at once. But if God can't reach you in say Buddhism, or in any other faith, does that not limit God? |
