How many Christians here under estimated the pain and difficulty of the Christian life?
Q. I never thought being a Christian would be a walk in the park, but I never ever came close to anticipating the level of pain and suffering I have experienced as a Christian. It's been constantly heart ache and pain for me. And even at that level, it's nothing compared to what some Christian missionaries and martyrs over sea's have experienced. Thanks in advance for your answers. God bless.

A. Interesting.. I'm sorry it feels that way. =( You have my sympathy. *Hugs*. ..Personally I'm an atheist + a former Christian, but I never really had to suffer through *that* much heartbreak. (Christianity-related heartbreak, that is.) I guess it depends on WHAT exactly one believes, how much emphasis one places on things such as hell and one's own innate "sinfulness", etc.. May I ask WHY it is that you find it so difficult? You won't have to answer if you don't want to, but you got me somewhat curious, so..

How should a Christian view other religions ?
Q. I have seen many books in Christian bookstores condemning other religions as cults/demonic. How should Christians view temples, mosques etc - as being inhabited by Satan and devils that draws people away from their only true god (Jesus) ? Or should Christians view other religions as equally helpful to people with different faiths ?

A. A: Love them and be salt and light to them as the Spirit of God gives ability and words. While Christians cannot endorse or recommend any religious community or institution that does not recognize Jesus Christ as both Lord and Savior... as far as we may the Bible also teaches us to live peaceably with all men. Romans 12:18 - If possible, so far as it depends on you, be at peace with all men. Whenever I have nagging questions like these I goto FIJC Ministries website and online chat. They always seem to have scripturally sound advice and answers and they have awesome audio sermons on their website! Chatroom: Website:

However, there are several Catholic institutions that offer PT such as Marquette, Northwestern, Creighton University. Yet, here is a list of all the accredited PT programs in the US: However, one thing to consider is that you can do your undergraduate work almost anywhere and then transfer to a PT program for your graduate education.

How could a Christian justify the Bible saying that the earth is flat?
Q. I'm a fairly new Christian, but I've never considered this before: The Bible does not specifically claim that "the earth is flat" but it is strongly hinted in several places. It is also rarely hinted at that the earth is round, or a sphere, etc. So if the Bible is God's word, how could a Christian justify the Bible's claims of our earth being flat, when God created earth? Surely God should know that the earth is round, and so this should be said in the Bible?
Asked by anonymous - Sun Sep 6 08:49:32 2009 - - 28 Answers - 1 Comments

A. The Bible states that the earth is spherical, but the word spherical doesn't exist in the ancient Hebrew language that the Old Testament was written in, so "spherical" is described using terminology that could only have been revealed by God at that time. I should start by pointing out that in Isaiah 40:22, the Hebrew word for circle is "chug" , and its Strong's translation may be "circle:" H2329 chu g khoog From H2328; a circle: - circle, circuit, compassive Likewise, the Hebrew word used in Isaiah 22:18 may mean circle, the english translators just chose to use "ball", here is Strong's definition of the ambigous Hebrew word used: H1754 du r dure From H1752; a circle, ball or pile: - ball, turn, round about.

Is exposure to Christian dogma itself a form of suffering to be endured by Christians?
Q. I just asked about why chairs in Christian churches are so uncomfortable and most answers seemed to suggest they have been designed this way to make people sit up and pay attention to the dogma being provided by the church leader and not fall asleep. This sounds plausible and even Christians themselves answered this way, but of course, this means that the dogma itself is boring and sleep inducing, right? So if it s boring and sleep inducing then exposure to it is a form of suffering right? Christian dogma is something that Christians force themselves to endure like the dentists drill?

They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them. "Men of Galilee," they said, "why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven." Then they returned to Jerusalem from the hill called the Mount of Olives, a Sabbath day's walk from the city." Acts 1:9-12 I believe the angels were right, and it shall be exactly as they said.

A. I have been a sponsor with CCF for 20 years and they DO NOT try and convert. Those who said that they do simply do not know what they are talking about. I would not give CCF money if they were evangelizing. CCF was originally formed by Christian missionaries in 1938 and that is where the name originates. However, they are now a private nonsectarian organization. Christian Children's Fund provides help to children regardless of race, religion, or gender. They respect the cultural heritage, personal pride and dignity of the families that they assist. Another great organization that allows you to sponsors kids is Save the Children, which works both in the U.S. and internationally -

They even want to remove "in God we trust" from our money and would have if it were not for us Americans that voiced up against them. The Democrats, including Obama, are in favor of late term abortions and if the baby survives it should not be treated but left to die. This is what Obama said and we have the tape to prove it.

How did the Democratic party become hostage to atheists and anti-Christian bigots?
Q. The Democratic party used to be home to the vast majority of Catholic voters. 2004 was the first time that a Republican (Bush), against Kerry (nominal Catholic) got the majority of the Catholic vote. Atheists and anti-Christian bigots now dominate the Democratic Party. They say they aren't religous but public schools are their temples used to indoctrinate children via their secularist, anti-Christian views. America has had a long Judeo-Christian tradition. What is the cause of the big backlash against it? Why is the Democratic party willing to lose Christian voters like it has in the last 30 years, especially of late?

As for what they talk about I guess that would be different for each person since each needs to be held accountable for the things that are the hardest for them.

All is God and God is all. God is Spirit-Mind. They don't think that God is a Trinity. Matter does not exist, it is illusion. Therefore, sin does not exist, and disease does not exist. Death does not exist, and evil does not exist. The solution to sin, sickness, disease and death is to realize they do not exist. They are illusions. Man is spiritual and perfect.
