The docs may say youre gonna die, but its your choice. He says you can live forever and never truly die.

Whats it cost you to ask Christ to come into your heart and make you a believer? Nothing ventured, nothing gained. You dont have to give up smoking, drinking or cussin and you prolly already gave up the good stuff.

All you then gotta do is ask Him to forgive your sorry sinning hide and mean you are sorry for having done it your way.

Good fortune and God bless as your needs may be.


jag, i can sense that you truly believe that the greek & egyptian ideology did not dilute or change the hebrew theology.

others disagree. but the many who walk among us buy into the greek & egyptian dilution. the age of the intellect, the ego, and reasoning.

and perhaps they are correct. possibly overall it would be better for the rank & file if it turned out they are correct.

in the final summation, those who helped gain success are rewarded, those who didn't help such achievement are punished?


Yup it's another skeptic's illusion that leads to revisionist history. People like the ideas of novel concepts even if they cannot be substantiated with the facts. The ancient pagans of the world and the Jews/Christians understood their areas of commonality and stark differences. However, the Jews and Christians never borrowed from paganism for their scriptures--and their scriptures warned against that.The greatest proof of this is the complete rejection of polytheism and its practices.
