I said no such thing, and your presumption is incorrect. Exactly who are you to presume to tell me what I believe and who I am? Over the years I know that I have had, at one time or another, Christians (Catholic, Protestant, Fundamentalist, Charismatic, and "other"), Jews, Muslims, Buddhists (who recognize no deity), Hindus, Sikhs, and American Indians pray on my behalf, and I'm OK with that as long as it's sincere and not for show. There are many valid paths to spiritual enlightenment other than your own.

You may, however, correctly conclude that I am generally turned off by evangelism in all its forms, Christian, secular, or otherwise.


 
quote

So where does that place you?



It places me in the position of exercising the wisdom, free will, and self-determination with which the Creator has endowed me.

As a consequence, it also places me believing that there are valid sources of knowledge and enlightenment other than religion and The Church. I'm in good company; Galileo Galilei was brought before The Inquisition for arguing essentially the same ideas almost 400 years ago (see: Dialogo, 1632).




 
quote

I am unaware of this "christian" tradition. Which scriptures teach this? None that I'm aware of.



Do you dispute the passage I cited from the Gospel of Matthew? ("And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. ... But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret.") Personal prayer was one of the central ideas of the Christian Reformation. My own tradition is mainstream Presbyterian, and to a lesser extent Methodist, both of which emphasize the personal nature prayer. My paternal grandfather was an ordained Presbyterian minister ... which certainly does not make me a better person ... and I met my wife at a Presbyterian church. We were married by a friend who is an ordained Lutheran minister. Who are you to question my own religious experience?


 
quote

It is neither [proud, nor arrogant, nor self-righteous].



Q.E.D. To repeat myself, there are many valid paths to spiritual enlightenment other than your own, and even many equally valid interpretations and expressions of Christianity other than your own.


 
quote

You can have your own way of thinking and believing without being disrespectful.



You first.

I'm extremely sincere in my assessment of the prayer group idea!

You make a public call, you get a public response...

I was going to be done with this thread, but wondered if you would clarify.

I agree we each have different lives. But would you agree with this?

You completely lost me here. Are you saying that I've been trolling other threads? That I've somehow disrespected other members here? Please show me and I will promptly apologise.

I'm all for humor. I got a plus in another thread for making someone laugh. This, however, is a serious topic. The place someones soul will spend eternity isn't a joke.

It's not a matter subject to agreement or disagreement ... as if Jesus were a political candidate ... either it's true or it's not, but I have no reason to doubt it. But I am not a biblical scholar, either, and there is no universally agreed interpretation of the New Testament even within Christianity. Anticipating the next question ... no, I am not a biblical literalist. I do, however, observe that many people live rich lives, are benevolent to their fellow man, and achieve satisfying spirituality by way of religious or philosophical systems other than [insert your preferred Christian denomination here]. My personal opinion is that there is no One True Way, but rather that God chooses to reveal Himself to various people in different ways, ways that they personally are most likely to understand. It strikes me as supreme hubris that mere humans so often seek to limit how God may choose to reveal Himself to us.

I chose this as a place to collect encouraging messages for Wichita. Please see my original post if you have any doubt. I don't understand why this had to be turned into another debate about who belives what. Did we REALLY need another one of those threads? This is a rhetorical question. Please don't answer.

I would appreciate it if everyone from here forward would respect the original intention of this thread. If anyone has a problem with the intent of this thread or my intentions to care about someone, please feel free to PM me.

Another thread would be more appropriate then hiding discussions that started out as public in the first place. - just my 2 cents.

No. The whole concept that includes heaven and hell is.

EDIT: Just read your plea for the people that don't share your religious worldview and your attempts of summoning supernatural powers to influence another person to shut up. Will do, sorry...

Sad when your belief is so unstable that you cant allow criticism, or that if others don't believe the same it somehow diminishes your belief . ( not you, just making the statement.. )

I'd love to hear your response here...So because he doesn't practice religion the same way you do it's automatically wrong?


As far as keeping on topic...Didn't all the Christians already pray for him? Whats there to talk about there?

Apparently we cannot have a Christian thread here. As my Mom would say, "This is why we can't have nice things!"

It is my understanding that "the greater portion of participating formum members" would like this to be a thread about what I believe, what I mean by my posts, and an outlet for everyone who wants to make fun of whatever. I suppose I'll oblige you.

Please bear with me while I go back and try to pick up your questions. I don't have all the answers but I'll do my best and let you know when you've stumped me. Please, everyone continue to read this thread. Who knows, maybe it will have a bigger impact than was ever planned.

Been on the road for a few days. I didn't really give much of any thought about Jesus in those days. Even forgetting the Gideon Bible are available along side a 3-pack condoms in the end table drawer beside the hotel bed.

Didn't hear any voices, dream of anything and the only message I saw was a lonely billboard with a Christian message that I forgot what it was.

I was with co-worker of mine, for which are conversation was ripe of sin, because it was all about our past conquest of copulations and fantasy lust of women. Many curse words were spoken even the Lord's name in vain.

I may be slipping more into hell. I think the power of prayer for my salvation was working on day-1, but I think many of the Christians only said a prayer once and I have dropped of their prayer list and have been forgotten. Maybe one or two Christians left praying for my salvation. I'm not for sure if it is enough to save me from damnation.

Christians! Please help my soul! Don't forget about me.

Not much being prayed for his general well being, although he might need that as little as he needs the other. Just odd that everyone seems to be praying for him to come back to their preferred religion, not much else.



Scripture - Please read out loud.
Mark 8:36
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

There is not an absense of concern about his health, etc. This thread was started as a focus on one thing. The idea was discussed with Wichita and that is what he agreed to. I, unlike most here, have done my best to use this thread as designed.

Been on the road for a few days. I didn't really give much of any thought about Jesus in those days. Even forgetting the Gideon Bible are available along side a 3-pack condoms in the end table drawer beside the hotel bed.

Didn't hear any voices, dream of anything and the only message I saw was a lonely billboard with a Christian message that I forgot what it was.

I was with co-worker of mine, for which are conversation was ripe of sin, because it was all about our past conquest of copulations and fantasy lust of women. Many curse words were spoken even the Lord's name in vain.

I may be slipping more into hell. I think the power of prayer for my salvation was working on day-1, but I think many of the Christians only said a prayer once and I have dropped of their prayer list and have been forgotten. Maybe one or two Christians left praying for my salvation. I'm not for sure if it is enough to save me from damnation.

Christians! Please help my soul! Don't forget about me.


Nobody ever said it would happen over night. Thank you for your post! I'd rather see you jesting about your experience than not particpating at all.

Have a blessed day!

I believe the thread title and first post were fairly clear. I do realize that there is a reading comprehension problem in the world. However, to answer your question, you should discuss your proposal with Wichita.

I for one hope the Hindu's have it right, and Witchy gets up three days's afer he dies, puts his arm around Zombie Jesus, and they both point at your graves and say "Ha-Ha"!

(Not that I want to see you in your graves, mind you)



Isn't it interesting how the nay-sayers NEVER get up in arms about "sending good vibes"? Isn't it interesting how they MUST try so hard to convince everyone that God doesn't exist? Read the posts, they can't stop and they can't help themsleves! I'll be happy for anyone who can say "ha ha" after their death!

I propose a challenge, start a thread about something like the tooth fairy or the Easter Bunny and show us how well you can REALLY debate something that 90+% of the people on the planet don't belive in. I want everyone that doesn't believe in it to spell out why they don't. That should be easy and VERY interesting. This is not a joke. Please try it.

Maybe you guys can pretend you aren't mocking--you're just having fun.

I don't believe in God, and I don't believe in the power of prayer. I don't desire anyone wasting their time praying for me, but if someone told me they were going to, and they were going to tell other Christians to as well, I would be thankful that they care for my well-being. Wouldn't do much... but I'd be thankful. No sense in making a joke out of something very important to other people.


Well said and very relevant! Plus for you, Sir!

You might as well ask people why they believe they have the right to be kind to others. We don't have power over anyone else's soul. We don't pretend to. Humanity is prayed for in general. There is no reason to not mention the names of the people we are focused on, too.

That actually is deep.
It is all a matter of taste, if nothing is real, what satisfies at this hour might seem enough, if there is no truth.
Maybe it is seen as more of a choice of which cake pleases my tongue more..when over on the side out of view of the sweet distractions, part way down the narrow path is a pomegranate tree, food much healthier than cake.
