    Hello

    Hello, I'm Steven. I've attended a Presbyterian church from the small town I live in, but I follow the Bible more than anything else. I've read the Bible hundreds of times and I live my life as it requires me to do. My favorite Bible verse is matthew 6:33 "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." I found Jesus as a kid when I started reading the Bible as soon as I could read. I hope to learn to become an even better Christian and make an example for other people to follow.

    Ah... Matthew 6... good times.
    Matthew 6:5,6
    5And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 6But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

    John 5:46,47 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me. But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

      Good boy! God needs more salesmen who are unafraid of offering the Real Deal Christian faith.
      Hello, my name is Mary. I hope to fellowship with you! That is, unless you don't listen to church authority (Deuteronomy 17:12); are a witch (Exodus 22:17); are a homosexual (Leviticus 20:13; Romans 1:24-32); or fortuneteller (Leviticus 20:27) or a snotty kid who hits their dad (Exodus 21:15); or curses their parents (Proverbs 20:20; Leviticus 20:9); an adulterer (Leviticus 20:10); a non-Christian (Exodus 22:19; Deuteronomy 13:7-12; Deuteronomy 17:2-5;Romans 1:24-32); an atheist (2 Chronicles 15:12-13); or false prophet (Zechariah 13:3); from the town of one who worships another, false god (Deuteronomy 13:13-19); were a non-virgin bride (Deuteronomy 22:20-21); or blasphemer (Leviticus 24:10-16), as God calls for your execution and will no doubt send you to Hell, and I have no interest developing a friendship with the Spiritually Walking Dead.

        It is such a good chapter, but Matthew 6:33 will always be my favorite.

          Matthew 6:7,8
          7But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. 8Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

            That is a good point, I shall do my best not to do that. Of course, should we have a favorite verse? Or should our favorite verse be the entire Bible?

              Of course you can have a favourite verse but being all puffed up about it would be a sin.

                I think it's good to have a favorite verse. Mine changes all the time. Right now, I really like Matthew 15:26.

                But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
                Christians are superior because we possess an understanding that unbelievers lack. It is through the Power of Jesus only the converted mind is able to understand what is going on in the world; what the Communists are really up to; what Satan's intentions are. Most unbelievers do not even believe in Satan and cannot understand his tactics.

                  What kind of Bible are you reading that has the entire text contained in one verse?

                    Having read the whole Bible so well you will, of course, know who it was who had a talking donkey and be able to give us chapter and verse pointing us to this wondrous tale.

                        Ah I really meant is it better to just not have a favorite verse. That would be interesting to have a Bible with only one verse. I know God could have done it if he wanted to.

                          Well answered!

                          So, how do you promote God in your daily life? For example, when your science teacher starts talking about the Big Bang, or when you find out that a neighbor has the AIDS?
                          Bible boring? Nonsense!
                          Try Bible in a Year with Brother V, or join Shirlee and the kids as they discuss Real Bible Stories!
                          You can't be a Christian if you don't know God's Word!

                            I quickly deny it and cite the Bible as proof otherwise and when I have neighbor who has AIDS, I would tell them their sin and hope they repent. If I am wrong to do that, I beg that you would help me realize what would be the right thing to do.

                              You seem to have the right idea. Genesis obviously destroys big bangs.
