I guess most everyone in the world has had a phychotic episode by your logic, since most every person on earth has had supernatural experiences at some point in their life. Use common sense. It's real.

Off-Topic thread has more views than Jesus thread

Is your version of christianity faith or works? If it is faith, then is your faith dead by the omission of good works? Then how is it faith if the faith is works. How many good works do I need to do then? How much do I need to change? I repent everyday, but that doesnt stop the sinning, there is always something I could have done better.

The way I see it, even though sinning is not encouraged, it is not really sin anymore because of grace through Jesus Christ, having faith in Him will of course make us want to do better personally but if we do sin, although the act is not encouraged, we are covered by the grace of Jesus Christ.


Ephesians 2
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Gotta sin to win.

I take this back it was wrong. I just read this.

Faith Without Works Is Dead
14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without [a]your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is [c]dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made [d]perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was [e]accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. 24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

25 Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

good works show that your heart has been changed.
Ezekiel 36:26-27 KJV
A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.

Judging by the poll everyone is getting ready for hell. 😆

isnt it odd. a story about a dude that feed and healed people is hated?

Matthew 7:13-14 KJV
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
