I am a christian. Being a christian was first an insult the roman empire gave to the followers of Christ. It became the name of the believers. The christian faith has devided in time in many cults:
- Orthodox
- Catholic
- Lutheran
- Protestant
- Calvinistic
- Methodist
- Bapthist
- Penticostal
- Covenant
- Neoprotestant
- Jehova's Whitnesses
I personally am a penticostal, and believ that only by receiving the sacrifice of Jesus as the remedy of our sinfull lives you can go to Heaven, which I believe it exists. Hell also exists, but it is not necesarely a place with fire. Satan is not a two horned red beast with a triton in his hands. He was the mightiest of all angels and now he comes as an angel of light in order to decieve people and make them follow in his suffering since Hell was made for him and his angels that followed him and not for humans. But all those that follow Satan are to go where he is going.
From the discussion I see here I want to clear something for my faith and you go search if I'm telling the truth or not.
The Bible has no contradictions!
What Almansurah posted is very hard to follow if you don't know the Bible. But if you read all 4 gospels, you will see that they don't argue of who was at the tomb, how the stone was moved, but they look from different perspectives. One only follows Maria Magdalene, the others follow two or more of the women that went that Sunday morning. And even though it was told 4 different ways, it was dawn. And I can go on about all the things that were posted and show you how it's just a different perspective on the same thing.
The Qu'raan was written by more than one person but since it was something memorized word by word, they all knew the same exact thing.
The Bible was also written by more persons, but they each wrote the way they saw or heared (Luke) the things (in the Gospels). But there is no contradiction anywhere in the bible, where it is said something about an event and being contradicted in another place. It is the same thing happening the same way, viewed from a different perspective.
