Anything that I state without scripture to back it would only be in my opinion. The basis of the beginning of faith is the word of God, the bible and belief is based on the promises which he made in the word.

you know you are forgive because it say so in the bible" ask and you shall receive". as far as faith it is something that is not taught but is an act of the heart

And,... And,... Silence....

Is it? because that's not what the Bible teaches....

You want something tangible to base something that can only be accepted by faith.

very well put Im glad thats how you manage to go throught life.

I wanted to reply simply to those that complained about the post... HELLO get a clue. THe title was clear as day... there was no hidden text that called your name and said read me.... it said "MY GOSPEL" YOU MADE THE CHOICE TO READ IT.It is Christmas and a time many share their beliefs with others. Maybe he felt the need to say what was in his heart.... If we can talk about sinful things then there is no harm in talking of those that arent. Maybe its part of his BP??? We get hyper sexual, but we also get hyper religious. If you dont like it dont read!!!!! Heck I feel so passionant about this I may make a post to make sure those who bitched and left read it....

Make clear cut titles about your post and you should have no bitching as they asked to read it....

If you have the Holy Spirit with you Megatron , you will feel the burdon of guilt lifted from you.

All I can say is my rapist is a Born Again Christian he professed that his rape against me was my doing!! i was 6.

You still type is caps and by dear you should realize that this is not a church but a support group for BiPolar disorder.

This Christian God Shyte is truly starting to tick me off.

Goodness does not come from a bible but from your heart.

I believe that the people who must profess God are truly the ones with mental illness as you can not see that someone elses path maybe as good as another one. A path is just that a way to get from one point to another.

You chose yours now lets the rest of us choose our own.

amen. i am with buggy

I spelled burden wrong. spelled it like Eric Burdon of the Animals, lol

we had a choice to read this post and trun our heads but you decide to write if you don't want to read it then trun the other check and walk out of this conversation. thank you come again

Um Buggy this is a discussion, no one is angry accept you... I hold no ill will toward anyone, and was discussing this issue... I apologize on behalf of some people who are unable to have a discussion without getting upset, but I do not believe anyone is upset here....

IT'S DIFFERENT FOR EVERYONE, WHEN SOMETHING IN YOUR HEAD AND HEART "CLICKS" AND YOU REALIZE THAT THIS IS TRUE THEN YOU SIMPLY PRAY AND RECEIVE. SOME NEVER DO, AND THAT'S COMPLETELY COOL WITH ME, BUT THERE ARE MANY THAT DO.

Hey Megatron, did I ever tell you I met the Dali Lama? He shines! He said hello to me, I was almost too stunned to say hello back.

I am a PK, and have little use for organized religion anymore, just thought I would stir the pot a little...
