How can prayer be powerful and effective, if said upon the right heart strings?

“Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.”- James 5:16

Karmageddon, I think you said it all correctly. That is what I believe it to be.

How have you experienced the power of prayer in your life?

In an increasingly stress-ridden world with growing religiosity, more and more people are turning to prayer. Often when you are grateful or helpless you turn to prayer. How have you experienced the power of prayer?

Oh wow I don’t even know where to begin regarding how many times I’ve experienced the power of prayer in my life. By praying to Jehovah God, I am able to endure the daily trials I have to face no matter what they are or how serious they are due to his Holy spirit. I’m also able to do many things that I could never do on my own such as talk to a random stranger about the Bible and God’s Kingdom knowing that they will probably act ruthlessly. I am also able to look past the current state of the world and not be depressed by it knowing a better future is to come, all thanks to endurance by means of prayer and bible study. =)

Soteriology – Q 2 – How did Christ, being the Son of God, become man?

I have a paper due, over what I believe about Soteriology, or the study of salvation. The questions are drawn from a catechism. There are 24 total questions within this paper that I will answer. On executive decision, I chose to post each of these on Answers! but…. I am going to do them about once each day. They will be titled "Soteriology – Q # ______ . " I am going to poast them, one each day, because I am hoping to get as many different people to answer these questions as possible. If you would like to answer all 24, search them through my name, and answer as many as you would like to. PLEASE back up your answers with Scriptural references, theologian quotes, your opinions, etc. I want you to be as creative as possible, and I want as many people to participate as possible. Thank you for your participation! I do not want you to do my research. I want more opinions than just people I can find on my own. In a sense, think of it mor

Anglican Episcopal and ELCA Lutherans; how can we acommodate you better in our Confessional Lutheran Churches?

What are we doing wrong? Ever since the Anglican Communion, and the ELCA (Methodists too) started defying Scripture with female ordination, liberal views on Scriptural interperetation, homosexuality, and secular humanism, most of those whom I know have been complaining. Our doctrine seems to be what you want, yet when invited to Church and/or Bible Study, there is no interest.

What more should we be doing?

Mark
… Please read my notes. I am not talking about those who are happy, but those who are not.

Also, we can not change Scripture, or the doctrine that comes from Scripture.

How can we help?
f o:

If you want to get technical, we are Catholic. The Chruch of Rome left the "Catholic" fold when they walked away from the Church at the time of the Reformation. We did not leave Rome. Read the Lutheran Confessions, called The Book of Concord. Concord, in this case means unity of doctrine. We did not split the Church, Rome did. Your previous Pope said as much: http://www.leaderu.com/ftissues/ft9612/opinion/pannenberg.html

there is nothing you can do but love the people where they are at

What is your opinion of eclectic spirituality?

All the main faiths seem to have a lot in common, But someone may agree with one aspect of one religion and another aspect of a different religion and mix them together and it could work for them well and better than following one religion completely and some people say all religions are different paths to the same truth anyway.

I think eclectic spirituality is common in Wicca and Paganism.

I think there are forms of "eclectic" Christianity too… perhaps these paths arn’t so much eclectic as mystic… meaning that instead of "picking and choosing" their favorite bits like from a buffet of religions at the cafeteria, people seek personal gnosis, seek a personal way of relating to God or the cosmos and use methods and ideas from various religions to inspire them on their path.

Sufism is a mystic path of Islam that seeks a personal relationship with Allah… as far as I know, they are a very peaceful and tolerant sect that teaches love along with the typical message of submission to Allah that characterizes all muslim sects. While they may not be "eclectic" per se, their mystic approach may help describe what eclectics within Wicca and paganism attempt to do and why they may be somewhat more peaceful and tolerant then other groups.

Judgement Day Is very near

The Last Judgment, Final Judgment, Judgment Day, or Day of the Lord in Christian theology, is the final and eternal judgement by God of all nations.[1] It will take place after the resurrection of the dead and the Second Coming (Revelation 20:12–15). This belief has inspired numerous artistic depictions. There is little agreement among Christian denominations in Christian eschatology as to what happens after death and before the Last Judgment.

The doctrine and iconographic depiction of the “Last Judgment” are drawn from many passages from the apocalyptic sections of the Bible. It appears most directly in The Sheep and the Goats section of the Gospel of Matthew where the judgment is entirely based on help given or refused to “the least of these”:[citation needed]
When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, and He will put the sheep at his right hand and the goats at the left. Then the king will say to those at His right hand, “Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.” … “Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.”
Then He will say to those at His left hand, “You that are accursed, depart from me into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not give me clothing, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.” … “Truly I tell you, just as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.” And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life. (Matthew 25:31-36, 40-43, 45-46 NRSV)
The doctrine is further supported by passages in Daniel, Isaiah and the Revelation of Saint John the Divine..Click Here to read the rest of the story

WENDELL BERRY –“Men may dam it and say that they have made a lake, but it will still be a river. It will keep its nature and bide its time, like a caged animal alert for the slightest opening. In time, it will have its way; the dam, like the ancient cliffs, will be carried away piecemeal in the currents.”

WENDELL BERRY –“We are far more concerned about the desecration of the flag than we are about the desecration of our land.”

WHITE –“In antiquity, every tree, every spring, every stream, every hill had its own genius loci, its guardian spirit… Before one cut a tree, mined a mountain, or a brook, it was important to placate the spirit in charge of that particular situation, and to keep it placated. By destroying animism, we have only ended up exploiting nature in a mood of indifference to the feelings of natural objects.”

WHOOPI GOLDBERG –“It never occurs to me that there are things I can’t do.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Researchers reason that all living humans descend from Africans, some of whom migrated out of Africa and populated the rest of the world. If the mitochondrial analysis is correct, then because mitochondrial Eve represents the root of the mitochondrial family tree, she must have predated the exodus and lived in Africa. Therefore many researchers take the mitochondrial evidence as support for the “single-origin” or Out-of-Africa model.”

While, Brahmn has only to be cognised, Parashakti can be worshipped with name and form. She is Divine Will personified. She isconscious power beyond everything. She is the invisible and constant presence that sustains the world, linking form and name, holding them in interdependence. There is nothing impossible for Her She is the Universal Goddess. She is all knowledge, all strength, all triumph and all victory she is the Goddess Supreme, Maheshvari, who brings to us the total state of illumination.”

WIKIPAEDIA “Shakti is Mother of the universe. She creates, preserves, dissolves. She is the sat and so creates. She is chit, so she is life. She is ananda or bliss. He is also possessor and controller of opposite qualities: Destruction, death and terror as Mahakali, Goddess of Supreme Strength.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Space-time entails a new concept of distance. Whereas distances are always positive in Euclidean spaces, the distance between any two events in space-time — called an “interval” — may be real, zero, or even imaginary.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“The real purpose of the Paryushan is to purify our soul by staying closer to our own soul, to look at our faults, to ask for forgiveness for the mistakes we have committed, and take vows to minimise our faults. We try to forget about the needs of our body and our business so that we can concentrate on our-self. Swetambers celebrate eight days of Paryushan and the last day is called Samvastsari. In these eight days most of Jains keep fast in many ways and all Jains keep fast on Last day of Paryushan. The process of shedding our KARMAS really begins by asking for forgiveness with true feelings and to vow not to repeat mistakes. The quality of the forgiveness requires humility and suppression of anger.”

WILCOX AND MUMFORD –““I don’t care how poor a man is; if he has family, he’s rich.”

WILFRED B L TROTTER –“The dispassionate intellect, the open mind, the unprejudiced observer, exist in an exact sense only in a sort of intellectualist folklore; states even approaching them cannot be reached without a moral and emotional effort most of us cannot or will not make.”

WILFRED PETERSON –“The best leaders are very often the best listeners. They have an open mind. They are not interested in having their own way but in finding the best way.”

WILILAM JAMES –“There is only one thing a philosopher can be truly relied upon to do, and that is to contradict other philosophers.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“Ancient poets animated all sensible objects with gods or geniuses… choosing forms of worship from poetic tales. And at length they pronounced that the gods had ordered such things. Thus men forgot that all deities reside in the human breast.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“Excess of sorrow laughs. Excess of joy weeps.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“He who binds himself to a joy Doth the winged life destroy; But he who kisses the joy as it flies Lives in Eternity’s sun rise.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“I care not whether a man is good or evil; all that I care/ Is whether he is a wise man or a fool. Go! put off holiness,/And put on intellect… Men are admitted into Heaven not because they have curbed and governed their passions or have no passions, but because they have cultivated their understandings. The treasures of Heaven are not negations of passion, but realities of intellect, from which all the passions emanate uncurbed in their eternal glory. The fool shall not enter into Heaven let him be ever so holy.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“I have mental joys and mental health, Mental friends and mental wealth, I’ve a wife that I love and that loves me; have all but riches bodily.”

WILLIAM BUTLERYEATS –“Education is not filling a bucket but lighting a fire.”

WILLIAM CHANNING –“To live content with small means, to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion, to be worthy not respectable, and wealthy, not rich, to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly, to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart, to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never, in a word to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common, this is to be my symphony.”

WILLIAM GARTNER –“What separates the entrepreneur from others is that entrepreneurs act on what they see.”

WILLIAM L. SHIRER –“Most true happiness comes from one’s inner life, from the disposition of the mind and soul.”

WILLIAM LANDBURG –“Modern portfolio theory allows for the fact that financial markets are by their nature unpredictable. An infinite array of events that are, impossible to foresee or control affect returns — currency meltdowns, earthquakes, terrorist attacks and 100-year storms (which have a way of occurring every five years!). Logic and rational thinking rarely factor into the mix. As was seen in the dot corn era, a company’s underlying strength, reflected by such variables as profitability, earning prospects and market share, may have far less effect on share price than mindless exuberance. How else can we account for the swings and gyrations in the stock market in recent years?”

WILLIAM LANGLAND –“We should be low and love like and lean each man to the other And patient as pilgrims, for pilgrims are we all.”

WILLIAM LANGLAND –“We should be low and love like and lean each man to the other And patient as pilgrims, for pilgrims are we all.”

WILLIAM LAW –“A life devoted to the interests and enjoyments of this world, spent and wasted in the slavery of earthly desires, may be truly called a dream, as having all the shortness, vanity, and delusion of a dream; only with this great difference, that when a dream is over nothing is lost but fictions and fancies; but when the dream of life is ended only by death, all that eternity is lost, for which we were brought into being.”

WILLIAM LAW –“All other sacrifices that we make whether of worldly goods, honours, or pleasures, are but small matters compared to that sacrifice and destruction of all selfishness, as well spiritual as natural, that must be made before our regeneration hath its perfect work.”

WILLIAM LAW –“For Heaven is as near to our souls as this world is to our bodies.”

WILLIAM LAW –“Love and pity and wish well to every soul in the world; dwell in love, and then you dwell in God; hate nothing but the evil that stirs in your own heart.”

WILLIAM LONDON –“To insure good health: eat lightly, breathe deeply, live moderately, cultivate cheerfulness, and maintain an interest in life.”

WILLIAM M THACKERAY –“Mother is the name of God in the lips and hearts of children.”

WILLIAM Mc FEE –“The world belongs to the enthusiast who keeps cool.”

WILLIAM MCDONOUGH –“Don’t get me wrong: love nuclear energy! It’s just that i prefer fusion to fission. And it just so happens that there’s an enormous fusion reactor safely banked a few million miles from us. It delivers more than we could ever use in just about eight minutes. And it’s wireless!”

WILLIAM PITT –“Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom: it is the argument of tyrants.”

WILLIAM PURKEY –“Dance like no one is watching, love like you’ll never be hurt, sing like no one is listening and live like it’s heaven on earth.

WILLIAM R INGE –“We have enslaved the rest of the animal creation, and have treated our distant cousins in fur and feathers so badly that beyond doubt, if they were able to formulate a religion, they would depict the Devil in human form.”

WILLIAM RANDOLPH –“A politician will do anything to his job –even become a patriot.”

William S. Burroughs- “Be just, and if can’t be just, be arbitrary.”

WILLIAM S. GILBERT- “And whether you’re an honest man, or whether you’re a thief, depends up on whose solicitor has given me my brief.”

WILLIAM SAFIRE –“Never assume the obvious is true.”

WILLIAM SAROYAN –“Every man in the world is better than someone else and not as good as someone else.”

WILLIAM SAROYAN –“No man’s guilt is not yours, nor is any man’s innocence a thing apart.”

WILLIAM WORDSWORTH –“The World is too much with us; late and soon, Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers; little we see in Nature that is ours; we have given our hearts away, a sordid boon! This sea that bares her bosom to the moon; The winds that will be howling at all hours, And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers; For this, for everything, we are out of tune; It moves us not — Great God! I’d rather be A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn; so might I, standing on this pleasant lea, have glimpses that would make me less forlorn; Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea, or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.”

Everyone lets the present moment slip by then looks for it as though he thought it were somewhere else. No one seems to have noticed this fact.

Online Dating And Religion

Personal ads used to be considered something dark, sinister and pathetic. Dating sites used to be a place to visit only when you are bored and want to browse over desperadoes and undesirables. There was an undeniable stigma to online dating that had been affecting its effectiveness as a social networking tool. Thank goodness those days are over.

Online dating has had a slow start but it has now been propelled to the mainstream of the singles dating scene. It has outgrown its negative image of catering only to people who have no other chance of succeeding in dating. Now, you’ll find scores of people using the online dating route to meet friends and long-term partners.

Just as the number of online daters and the number of online dating sites have increased, so did the specialization of these sites. There are now online dating sites for people of a specific religious faith. There are Jewish dating sites, Christian dating sites, Catholic dating sites, and variations of these sites.

The Appeal of Online Dating

You may very well wonder why Catholics or Jews or Christians are flocking to online dating sites. There are many reasons for this development and the two most important reasons are the following:

1) Friends and Networking Online dating has given people of a certain religious faith a way to communicate with others who have the same spiritual beliefs. Online dating is a convenient way to connect with other people whom you know will welcome talk about religion. Through online chatting, you can discuss and debate dogma with other people. Through online dating, you can seek help for your church and spread awareness about your missionary work or your religious seminars and other events.

Online dating is specifically helpful if you are new to a certain town, city or state. If you wish to immediately have new friends, you can visit an online dating site that specifically provides networking services for people of your religion. This way, you can gain entry to the local chapter of your church, you will have people to help introduce you around your new community, and you will gain instant friends and acquaintances.

2) Lifetime Partners Some people believe that to coexist and have a happy marriage or relationship, two persons have to believe the same things. More importantly, some people believe that having the same spiritual values can give a relationship better odds of survival.

Online dating removes religion from the picture. Joining an online dating site that caters to your specific faith is an assurance that you will only date people who hold the same spiritual convictions that you do. You can even narrow your search further to believers in your immediate locality. You can also limit your choice to a certain sect or denomination. You have ultimate control about whom you will meet and whom you’ll date. Moreover, through online dating, you can get to know the other person through emailing and chatting so that you can be sure that the other person really does believe what he or she professes to believe.

Runescape 2 High Alchemizing
In Runescape 2 to use the High Alchemy magic spell, you need at least 55 Magic. Firstly, decide what you think may be the quickest for you to make. If you have a high enough Mining and Smithing level, you can smith Steel Platemail. Someone who has a high Fletching level can make Yew or Magic bows.

Runescape 2 Mining
Mining is one of the most vital skills in RuneScape 2. You should have at least 40 Mining. At a 40 Mining it is easier to mine Coal. Even though you only need 30 Mining for Coal, it would be much more difficult to mine it at that level in Runescape 2. You should also buy either an Adamantite or Rune pick.

For Members, a great place to mine coal is near Ardougne, and a bank is nearby. Free-Players can mine in the Dwarven mines, but in Runescape 2 there is no bank close to the mine.

• Mine 4,731 coal and sell for around 100-150gp each
• You should be at level 60 Mining to enter the Miner’s Guild. Mine 59,598 coal and sell for around 100-150gp each
• Now that you’re level 85 Mining, you can mine Rune in the Wilderness, or from the Heroes Guild. Each ore sells for around 10,000-15,000gp!

Runescape 2 Smithing
Smithing in Runescape 2 is quite a good way to make money, but you need patience as it takes a while. As non-members, steel plate bodies (at 48 Smithing) is a good item to make. They high alchemy for 1,200gp each, and can sell to other players for 900 to 1,000gp each. Rune axes, scimitars, battle axes and kites are the better items to make and sell in Runescape 2 as they are high in demand. As members, an extra bonus is the well-known Cannonball. After doing the Dwarf Cannon quest, you can get your hands on what is known as an ‘Ammo Mould’. Cannonballs are worth 150gp to 200gp each, and one Steel Bar makes four. That’s 600 to 800gp per bar.

Runescape 2 Herblore
It is a very hard skill and requires a lot of time, effort and if you do not have Runescape 2 money to start with. The potions which sell well are prayer, fishing, agility, ranged, anti-fire and Super sets (Super Attack, Super Strength and Super Defence) and the rest are slightly harder to sell.

At 25 Herblore in Runescape 2, there is a herb you can identify called Ranarr Weed. This is a very popular, in-demand herb. When IDed, these herbs sell for 3k to 4k each. Once you reach 38 herblore, you can make one of the most popular potions is the Prayer Potion. Prayer potions in Runescape 2 sell for 5k each, so you could buy ranarrs, and then sell the potions at 1k to 2k profit.
