Praying for God to take care of an economic crisis is pointless. I mean, the guy can't manage money, every time I've been to church they tell me he's broke and needs to borrow some from me.

only ten sentences in

I think the most objectionable part is trying to tie americas 'immorality' with their choosing this president

americans voted on many issues, same sex marriage was barely one of them, being that is still a 'state' decided issue,,

the president must represent the people, I would much rather he supported civil unions that afford the same cIVIL right to same sex couples without making them the SAME as heterosexual

but in the end, acceptance of homosexuality is but one of the many sins becoming more rampant in america decade after decade

I can understand the dissapointment, I cant understand trying to link it to one mans election,,,,

The only disappointment I see happens to be represented in the topic of this thread.

Many have turned their backs on God.

Some have even equated The God of the bible with the god of the koran.

Truth-be-told a "falling away" has been foretold. {2Thes 2:3}


"I agree that Franklin Graham jumped the shark with his "last four years" remark."


Anything a Bible-believing Christian says is a "jump[] in shark infested waters".

He owns "the cattle on a thousand hills".

"For every beast of the forest is mine,
and the cattle upon a thousand hills."
Psalms 50:10


"And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground,
and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;
and man became a living soul." Genesis 2:7

The air you breathe is His!
Enjoy!

Sigh, another religion post in the politics forum.

Bah... All he did was create gravity. Since then all he's been doing is taking credit for the works of others.

Our nations economic woes are caused by greed, not by invisible men but tangible ones.

many people confuse the bible with God, although the bible is God inspired, it is also written by man,,,,like all other books are

it is a book with great knowledge and wisdom on many things

Be careful what you pray for.

I know a woman whom I though would never ever quit smoking. She was hopeless addicted. So she prayed to God to help her quit. Shortly afterwards, she was smoking while on oxygen and lit up a cigarette and her face caught on fire. She was badly burned. If she would have been inhaling, it would have burned her lungs.

She healed. I still did not think she would quit smoking, but she did.
She kept a supply of cigarettes in her house for a full year. She never smoked again. She eventually gave all the cigarettes away.

Prayers are answered. I call it the law of attraction. The universe responds to thoughts, belief and faith no matter if you believe in a God or not.

Any this explains prayer how?

andrewzooms,


Prayer is basically thought forms.

We live in a universe controlled and created by thought.

Esther and Jerry Hicks wrote books on how to use this to your advantage in detail. They call it the "law of attraction." One book is called "Ask and it is given."

If you want a more scientific view on this look to David Bohmm, an American quantum physicist. He wrote a book called: Thought as a System.

from wiki:

"Bohm views physical processes as determined by information of more and more subtle levels which interact, and does not limit this consideration to matter alone. In an article of 1990, A new theory of the relationship of mind and matter, he resumes his view that there exists a close link to mental processes: "the whole notion of active information suggests a rudimentary mind-like behaviour of matter". In his view, mental processes as well can be understood as representing levels of activity of increasing subtlety which act upon each other. He recalls that thought is intricately connected with physical reactions, as is known from everyday experience. Yet on the mental side, action as response to information need not be immediate; rather, in some cases at least, it can be mediated by "suspension" of physical action and the resulting train of thought. Bohm suggests that the mental and the physical sides, which he sees as two "poles" of a unified whole, are closely interlinked and that "at each level, information is the bridge or link between the two sides". A relationship between the mental and matter may exist at indefinitely great levels of subtlety, while nonetheless each kind and level of mind may have a relative autonomy and stability. His article concludes with the statement that "knowledge of matter (as well as of mind) has changed in such a way as to support the approach that has been described here. To pursue this approach further might perhaps enable us to extend our knowledge of both poles into new domains"

Oh, so now you want people to believe what a Wikipedia article says . . .

It had become the popular version in England, but was detested by James because it had footnotes strongly opposed to the divine right of kings, to which James was committed. James cried that he would have a new Bible.
