Hi, I saw a comment you left in the profile of oregondani, and particularly this question (talking about Jesus): "If his dying goes both backwards and forwards in time as far as effects go, then why is it stated that he opened the gates to heaven, which before had been closed?". May I try to give a possible answer? Take a look to a story that I added in my profile. Well, obviously I'm not trying to convince you: it is not the truth, it is just a possible scenario, to know what would you think about that. Bye!

I know what you mean, they amaze you every day. My lil girl told me the other day that I needed to be patient! Then she told me that saying no was the "wrong response" and I should have said no maam. Crazy!

Hi horrible person, thanks for the positive comment: I am not here for being rated, but to share some thoughts. I think that you do the same, that's why I appreciated your note.
On February 17th 2007 oregondani Said :

Thanks for a very intelligent debate. It's hard to find on here. I'll look into those books you recommended when I get a chance. I love books, and I really love to study what others believe. I try to respect other's beliefs as I want them to respect mine...do unto others and all that! Well, I had fun hearing what you had to say on the matter of religion. Later!

I wasn't trying to impress you. I was just disputing what you called contradictions. They weren't, obviously. I do consider myself open minded, and have always been interested in religion. I do know quite a bit about other religions, and would agree with you that a lot of them teach similar morals and ideas. The bible is historical, and nothing in it has ever been disproved, which makes me comfortable. I enjoy a personal relationship with Jesus, and am not looking to convert. I have not read the book you referenced, and haven't even heard of it. Is it at all related to Hinduism? It looked like some sort of Sanskrit name. And to answer your question about what happened to people before Jesus: if they upheld the law as described in Leviticus, then His blood covered them also. If they did not, then sadly, they are screwed. I'm glad I was born after Christ died, because I'm no good at following all the rules, and I would especially suck at blood sacrifice, since I really like animals. I'm sorry that you were turned against Christianity by bad experiences with it. But I hope you find your way through this life, and that you dwell in truth. I believe you are an intelligent person, otherwise I wouldn't have wasted my time debating with you. Good luck to you!

Well, what is it you would like to know? You gotta gimme somewhere to start!
On February 15th 2007 oregondani Said :

Okay...still didn't show me any contradictions. You showed me the original law of the old Testament. Since Christ died to make atonement for us, we are no longer bound by this. Romans chapter 4 is a good place to read. Romans 4:5- But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness. Romans 4:7- "Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, And whose sins are covered;(8) Blessed is the man to whom the Lord shall not impute sin." Romans 4:16- Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all. Romans 5:18-Therefore, as through one man's offense judgement came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man's righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in the justification of life. So that verse says we were condemned because of Adam's sin, but justified because of Jesus's sacrifice on our behalf. Notice the words "free gift," meaning we don't have to do anything more than accept it. We don't and can't earn it. We are saved by grace through faith! That's good news! We are freed from the law that the Jews (God's chosen people) had to uphold. So Leviticus really just gives us more to be grateful for because we were made free (if you accept Jesus as your personal saviour). Before you write back and say "what about homosexuality," let me address that right now. If God says something is an abomination...that holds yesterday, today, and forever. Something being an abomination has nothing to do with the law. An abomination is something that is contrary to God, and something that you will be damned for, unless you turn to Jesus and repent. You will see that this is repeated in the New Testament, meaning it still applies. Check out 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, and Romans 1:26-28. You will find that in the Bible, God repeats Himself when He really wants to drive a point home. You can bet that since it is said both in the old and new testaments, that God means business! I hope that this answers your questions, and I pray that you will seek Him. He wants to share a relationship with you. He's a personal God, and He offers you freedom. God bless you!
