So now that im alittle more grown up, I realize that those childish storys were nothing more than that, storys.

So you would sacrifice your life for him? I mean you would do anything, right? But isn't taking your own life, considered a sin?

If there is proof of it once existing, than why question it? Unlike Jesus, there hasn't been any proof to his existence, nothing but a few fictional storys here and there.

If you pray for something you truely desire, I mean REALLY pray. And you never receive it, what happens then? Do you stop praying and move on, or do you continue wasting your time begging a man made figure til you receive it?

Of course He is a good leader.. he leads us into plenty of good things.. Even the fruit of the spirit is full of great things, gentleness, meekness, forgiveness, love, kindness, etc....

I would give my life for Jesus!! in a heart beat!! but I wouldn't take my life.. Thats for idiots.. No one needs to give there life but, if someone said I'll shoot you if you believe in Jesus or If you say you don't believe in him I'll let you live.. I would be dead! And proud to be. I would never say i don't believe in my SAVIOR!!

Praying.. its not a magic lamp that you wish with and get all your desires.. other wise I would be rich... There are three responses to your prayers.. YES, NO, and WAIT.. God knows whats best for you and if what you desire is what you really need. I prayed for a new acura cl when they first came out but I never got one.. reason probably being - I coudn't afford it and I would of probably gotten it repossed..
