A terrible thing is that radical islam has committed itself to doing satans work, and they don't even know it.
IRONGLOW. I don't have a dictionary and am not as well versed as you so just what does ESCHATOLOGY mean? POWDERMAN.  :grin:  :grin:  :grin:  :grin:

Someone, in an earlier post said that God does have a middle initial in his name.
  I expect they are not familiar with Jewish belief ....
   They believe that God's name is too holy to be spoken so simply, so familiarly...somewhat like "using his name in vain"..
  I am not so sure but that we born-again Christians should be reserving such awe and wonder for him, and follow the same practice!
   
Sir
 I am the someone you eluded to. First of all let me point out that I am not of the Jewish faith and am not familiar with all of there beliefs nor do I attempt to practice them. I am Christian. My Bible tells me that when Christ died on the cross that the vail in the temple was rent in twain.
 Hebrews 4:16 tells us "Let us therefore come BOLDLY unto the throne of grace". Jesus is my advocate. I do not need a rabbi or a priest to represent me with God. I speak with my God daily. I have a personal relationship with Him. In my Church and my home we speak often of God and call Him by His name. Perhaps in your church you do not. I have a living God and a risen Savior and I will worship Him and proclaim His name proudly and thankfully all the days of my life. If some dont want to hear or disagree with me....so be it.
The Lord didnt create anything without a purpose, but mosquitoes come close. :D

Oops!...
   I have two apologies to make...

  1) Twodollar...I didn't recall who had said that about God's name..
   Being a born-again believer, I have no quarrel with you...If I were rude or too abrupt...I apologize..
  My explanation of the way Jewish people use God's name was meant to be informative, and in no way critical of another believer.
  Incidentally; the Hebrew scriptures often referred to God by the letters JHVH...along about 1400 A.D. someone decided to fill in the vowels...thus Jehovah...we cannot be sure that the correct vowels were filled in!
 The Jews used only the consonants because they hesitated from calling God by his "first name".
   Again; no offense intended..

  2) Powderman; Sorry for the unnecessary use of five-dollar words..
Eschatology...the study of the final days and end time events...today that is actually the study of prophecy.
   Yes; the radical Islamists are starting to look more and more like servants of the fallen one.
  Have you noticed how willing they are to lie? They make treaties and immediately break them..they call an "honorable truce", only to regather their strength or escape a difficult situation...no honor in their given WORD..
   Now...who is the "father of liars"?   Hmmmm...
If you don't want the truth, don't ask me.  If you want something sugar coated...go eat a donut !  (anon)

Kevin;
  The hollow points filled with pig fat should give any terrorists "second thoughts" before they try anything where they may encounter such "bad medicine"...although the hollow points should be filled and ready..just to avoid being a liar, the threat of having one popped with one, last thing before death, should be a deterrent.
   Only terrorists engaged in terrorism would be shot..
 
  As far as the rest of the muslim populace, why should they become irate?
 
 I am a Christian...if some ugly terrorists called themselves Christians and ran around bombing and beheading innocent folks...why should I care WHAT they get shot with...I would simply be pleased if they were shot!
  I would expect if the "regular populace" of Muslims have some kind of sympathy with the terrorists and what they may be shot with....that may raise my suspicions about where the regular Muslim populace are at?

   Seems like simple logic to me!

Mr ironglow
 No offense taken or apology required Sir.. Im just very staunch in my beliefs, and try to miss no opportunity to shout it out. Just ask my wife. She has to tell me to shut up quite often. I do realize I didnt write the book and everybody does not see things exactly as I do, and I have nothing but respect for those that have different faiths and beliefs. That is all between them and there God. He loves us all. I also hope that I have offended no one. :D

IW, we all know her position in politics.  She is a waste of bandwidth.

Ironglow, thanks again for clearing up the missing letter thing.

Just to clear the air, I will never apologize or allow anyone to attempt to make me feel wrong, stupid, doomed, unsaved, blind, or ignorant for NOT choosing Jesus as my "living G-d, Lord, or Savior", just as I would never expect anyone who does to apologize for believing so.

I think most enlightened Christians of all denominations have come to realize that the Hebrews / Jews were never the "enemy".  I also think that in these times, it is painfully obvious who and what the enemy really is.
We are not just fighting Islamic radical terrorists, we are now actually fighting satans' manifestation on earth.  These are the endtimes.  They are starting out slowly, but will build rapidly until all prophecies have come to pass.  And the meek shall inherit the earth.

    Selah...simply means....."pause; think about that".

well ironglow it does make a kind of sense but i think it would if you where to that in a country where you had troops deployed the populace would view it as you trying to use their religion against them. this might cause an increase in suicide and terrorist attacks. remember, one of the main reasons for FMJ ammo being introduced was because it would not leave a giant wound and you couldn't get an infection. seems strange to care about your enemys well being so much :?

I do feel in a way that I should appoligise formaly to Powder as I felt he was referring to me on the ataginitstic thing and I do so Sir...As far as the religious aspect goes its to each his own...I feel like this...If you lead a good life trying to harm no others and protecting the weak and securing the honor of mankind then you will (if there is an afterlife) be rewarded as such....Think about it fellas...If there is a God...And if he is all knowing and knows your heart...Why would he condem you to "Hell" because you didnt fall to your knees on sunday praising him??? To me that would be vanity in that he HAS to have your praise to make him happy...Its a topic that will be argued untill time itself ends and I personally dont feel like arguing it...The main topic that im sorry pissed me straight the hell off was the blow them all up concept...Granted I do believe the guilty should be punished but not at the expence of innocent lives...Sorry if all you believers and christians see it different but that my perspective on it...Life is a precious thing and shouldent be wasted for any means or goals
You want a divorce if I go hunting today??? Well sorry ta see ya go...Was nice knowin ya..Dont let tha door hit ya where tha good lord split ya :D

Cam,

If I can comment here, briefly.
The fact is we don't know about the true nature of God.  That's why it's called faith, "the belief in things not seen and not known."

Regarding a few of your statements.  God MAY choose to let in those who live a good life, but that does not mean He WILL.  In the Bible, there is only one guaranteed way to achieve salvation and that is through Jesus, the risen savior.  Does that mean everyone else burns in Hell?  I truly don't know, but I do own insurance on my house and haven't ever had a fire.. but I am sure to die.  

Remember also that faith is about the heart.  There will be many who have acted and looked like God's people who will be turned away.  So it is up to each of us to live our life, following God's will and not our own, as best we can.

Praising God is really a priviledge and an outgrowth of the incredible warmth and passion and thankfulness that I find inside myself.  Again, everybody can do it differently, as long as their hearts are obedient to God and humble, knowing their brokeness and unworthiness.  It would be like writing a thank you note after getting a great, great present.. do you want to write it or do you have to write it?  

Finally, regarding hostilities, Iraq and innocent people.  It is my belief that as a Christian, I can lay my life down for my God or my fellow man.  However, I also believe that we, as Christians and Americans and men, have a duty to protect the innocent people, expecially those who may not have had a chance to hear truth.  I believe our duty is to protect our family, our community, our country and our world, in that order.  Unfortunately, when those who would harm us hide amongst the innocent (or at least non-combatants) then we must do what we must, as carefully as possible.  

While I do not speak for all Christians, I hope my words are clear to you.
Adios all,
But what is liberty without wisdom, and without virtue? It is the greatest of all possible evils; for it is folly, vice, and madness, without tuition or restraint.  - Edmund Burke

A funny, pseudo story;

     The high Imam of all Iran calls Pres. Bush:...

    Imam: Mr president; last night I had a vivid dream.

    Pres. Bush: Oh!...What was that dream about?

    Imam: Well..I dreamed that I saw the United States...New York, Chicago, San Francisco and allthe small towns in between.
  Each building of any size  had a flag flying over it, and on those flags was written, " Allah is God, God is Allah"...

    Pres. Bush: Oh, I see...say, I am glad you called...because I had a dream last night also..

    Imam:  "Yes..and what was that dream about?"

    Pres. Bush: " Well, you see, in my dream, I saw all of Iran...all the cities and towns, including teheran...the capitol city.
   The streets were cleaned up and the people were employed, not lounging around the streets.
   They were free, contented, smiling and happy.

   And oh yes; There were banners with words written on them , flying above any building of any consequence."...

   Imam: "Oh yes;..and just what was it the banners said?"

   Pres. Bush;  " I don't know, I can't read Hebrew!".
