.... and righteous) tell about God's righteousness. God is a spiritual God. Romans 12:1 (Give your bodies to God) and 1 Corinthians 2:13 (his words were given to us by the Holy Spirit) tells of God's spirituality. God is very just. He judges all that sin with eternal punishment. But God is also a fair God and allows us to repent and trust in him to get forgiveness and eternal life. Psalm 9:16 (The Lord punishes the wicked justly) and 101:1 (I will sing about your kindness and justness) tell of how God is just. God is very truthful. He never lies or breaks his promises to us. 1 Kings 17:24 (Everything from the Lord is truthful) and Isa .....

.... that worshipped lots of gods and that was very ritualistic. At first, the simple head of the household could perform the rituals; however, they became increasingly complex as the centuries passed. Consequently, it became necessary to create a priestly class and to train those priests to perform the rituals correctly. During this time, the Vedas were written to give the priests instructions as how to perform the rituals (Halverson 87-88). Dean C. Halverson quotes: According to Hindu tradition, Ishvarn became known to humanity through Trimurti (literally, “three manifestations�) of Brohman. Those manifestations include Brah .....

.... the home but in the schools as well. To reach the heart of the problem is to face the problem head on. As a social drinker myself (I put my self in this classification) I don't feel I have an alcohol problem just because I enjoy a drink now and then. I do not abuse it and would never put myself behind the wheel of a car to take the risk of taking someone else's life. You don't need to be drunk to cause an accident, it's been proven in many cases only a few drinks can impair someone's stability. If more thought of this there would be less tragedies on our highways. When it comes to food and there are people starving in the world, when we .....

.... what time of year it is, many creatures would be hibernating (it's always winter somewhere on the globe). Many creatures are only found on one continent, indeed some are limited to a small island, forest, and/or mountain. How could the ark cope with all the specialized requirements of food and environments for millions of creatures? 320 different species of hummingbird alone, for example, have very high metabolic rates and have to consume large amounts of nectar throughout the day. The Ark would have had to cater for 640 hummingbirds, requiring a constant supply of insects and nectar. How could the ark cope with disposing of the wast .....

.... do not support school prayer and feel it is unconstitutional. The constitution neither mandates nor prohibits prayer in schools. It does not say that is unconstitutional, therefore, it is not unconstitutional. One may argue that school prayer is unfair, divisive, or just plain dumb, but it is not unconstitutional, and apparently it will take an amendment to make that clear. Finally, there is the issue of church and state. Some people feel that religious beliefs have flourished in this country, not in spite of, but because of the constitutional separation of church and state. The first amendment does not separate God and government, .....

.... the native Irish, who were forced to accept an unfamiliar culture, rebelled (Lewis 9). In 1649, Oliver Cromwell, leader of the Parliamentarians in the English Civil war, lead the Puritans into a bloodbath against the Catholics (Lewis 9). "He did it brutally, massacring the Irish without mercy and called the large scale killing ‘the righteous judgements and mighty works of God'" (Meyer 78). Thousands of Catholics preferred to suffer and die than deny their faith (Firth 10). By the middle of the seventeenth century, the Protestants settled on the land they seized from the Catholics and the Catholics were forced to colonize in towns wh .....

.... who are also spirits that we are told about in The Bible. We have to make the distinction that God is a Spirit apart from other beings. So, how do we make the distinction? There is only one place to get that knowledge. Within the God’s Written word. �For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? Even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.� That spirit can be compared with God for man was made in His image. Man’s spirit can not be seen, or felt, weighed or measured. We really can’t explain what a spirit is, in all honesty, because it is mystery that eludes precise definition .....

.... to Kent. They encouraged the King to allow Christian missionaries to come to Kent (Wakeman, 2-9). In the year 585, Gregory, a missionary, saw some white skinned, blue-eyed, blonde haired slaves for sale in Italy. He then sought permission to leave Rome and devote himself to missionary work among the heathen English. He was not allowed to leave until years later when he became pope. He then chose his friend, Augustine, a monk, to be the one to go to England. Augustine and his group met the King of Kent and were allowed to make converts. Eventually, the King even allowed himself to be baptized, and Kent became an independent branch .....

.... Another would be drinking of each other's blood to become one. Unlike many other religions, ns' ceremonies are usually conducted by women, called Priesteses, but their men who perform these ceremonies as well. The media makes n's look bad. For example, the movie the Craft is over exaggerated. n's do not use their powers, or do magic to harm other people. They use the magic they have to either heal themselves or heal others. There are many movies out there that make the public think that ns are devil worshipers. There is another movie titled Little Witches that totally blows out of proportion. In the movie, spells are done to try to bring .....

.... Each religion has a different way of applying this concept to its beliefs. Ignorance of these beliefs is a sign of weakness in the mind. To truly understand ones own religion, one must also understand those concepts of the other religions of the world. Hopefully this will be an enlightenment on the reincarnation concepts as they apply to and Buddhism. The goal in is to achieve tao, to find the way. Tao is the ultimate reality, a presence that existed before the universe was formed and which continues to guide the world and everything in it. Tao is sometimes identified as the Mother, or the source of all things. That source is not a g .....
