Well, these are good things to believe in.. essential to any Christian.. i think you probably already know that Christians belive that it is through faith in Jesus that we are saved eternally.. but i'm not going to lecture you :-)) i'm glad you are thinking about the issue. i would just say LISTEN. Maybe i'm weird or something, (well i guess you could say that is a given, LOL) but i have always known right away whenit was God talking to me. I hope you find what you are looking for :-)
blessings,

Oh, I'm not necessarily speaking personally...LOL...I'm just being hypothetical...Thanks though!
I just want to get some good discussion going.

I'm pretty firm in my own convictions, but I don't go into them much because I'm the moderator and think it's better that I preserve an air of neutrality.
I am a Quaker, but, that really doesn't tell you anything...LOL

okay...i believe in a lot of things jesus taught, most in fact. however, i do ~~~not~~~ believe he was the son of g-d anymore than my dh is, nor any less...

i see him as a good man who did some great things...and miracles? i believe he did some magic...turning water to wine to save the party...sounds like magic to me...

i do not believe that the bible (esp what christians call the new testament) is the word of g-d...i believe it is a combination of works written during an era of political unrest...

my opinion of paul...let's just say jew's jew would NOT be an accurate description...no matter what he says. there are right wing rifle-toting-living-in-the-hills-protecting-our-white-race brethren who claim to be VERY american...i see a lot of similarities...

jenny, i cannot believe i am getting sucked into this thread...i KNOW betterhttp://www.amitymama.com/images/icons/wink.gif!

so, these are just my opinions, how i see it from my little corner of the world painted by my experiences, yada, yada...
