If the first one made it to heaven the second one gets a free pass to hell.
He knew something has to exist outside of the material world in order for creation to take place.
The most religious person I have ever known also happened to be one of the nicest.
After her husband died in a RTC she met another man of her dreams. When she herself was diagnosed with terminal C her religious beliefs left her with a question ?
Basically, when she dies she's reunited with her first love, her dead husband.
But what happens when her second love dies?
Even the Pope can't answer that one . . . But, if you feel you can, please do.
27 Then came to him certain of the Sadducees, which deny that there is any resurrection; and they asked him,
28 Saying, Master, Moses wrote unto us, If any man's brother die, having a wife, and he die without children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
29 There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died without children.
30 And the second took her to wife, and he died childless.
31 And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: and they left no children, and died.
32 Last of all the woman died also.
33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.
34 And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:
35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
36 Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
37 Now that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
38 For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.
39 Then certain of the scribes answering said, Master, thou hast well said.
40 And after that they durst not ask him any question at all.
Is it OK to sin if you're sins are to be forgiven?
I'm only asking because I once had a catholic (spits) girlfriend, whose father used to cheat on his wife with prostitutes, then confess his sins to a priest who asked nothing more than 3x hail Mary's + £50 for the pot.
Is sinning this easy?
I want a one on one with your God.
You say he moves in mysterious ways, yet you cannot comprehend nor explain his viciousness in the act of killing an innocent.
but we know there is trillions of evil spirits
We do work for a scientology church , and a quaker meeting house/church & several members of the Plymoth Bretheren caper.
Also one of the happy clappy evangelical churches , worked around there one Christmas.
they were doing Christmas lunches for the local OAP's on one day , next day they did lunches for the down & outs/homeless. Never really twigged it at the time , but I got given a Christmas lunch was very nice.
Than some woman asked me what size shoes I took ?? thought it was a bit odd , but told her I took 10's next thing I got a pair of shoes given to me
went to leave the dining area to walk through the kitchen to get to the boiler house & got told that the exit was the other way . Told her I was working here.
They thought I was one of the down & outs hence the Christmas dinner . got to keep the shoes though
Sorry BnB, but as trillions of people have died, and you say that there are trillions of evils spirits, I feel I can rightfully infer that everyone that's died is an evil spirit. But if I'm wrong interpreting what you've said, then where did the trillions of evil spirits come from, and more importantly, why are there so damn many of them.
But I think it's a bit rich you happily telling me I'm wrong. I at least have tried and tested my beliefs, whilst all you've done, is read a book written by a lot of dead people that can't verify what they've written. I wonder if scientology will be taken as seriously as the bible in a thousand years; they've certainly got the bucks to make it as big.
