Should christians be against an Unjust war?

cook4t7 @cook4t7 (202) • United States 10 Jul 07

Should Christians be against an unjust war, or should we be in any war, or what does the scriptures tell us?; and how do you feel about it?

olivagon Christians are people who follow the principles of Christ, and so we have to oppose any war, there is no just war. Jesus says to love our enemies, and war is the contrary of love.

so, i dont get it, is jesus god or a man?

fightingistheonlyway @fightingistheonlyway (2658) • Canada 8 Jul 07

if jesus is a man, then he would need a human sperm to get to the egg. if he is god then he is immortal and wouldnt have died.

olivagon Jesus is God, and Jesus is man, both. He was conceived by a human woman and the Holy Spirit. Because of this, the divine of Jesus is contained in the human form. But this belongs to faith and you want to understand it without faith.

vivienna @vivienna (582) • Venezuela 8 Jul 07

The right usage of GOD's words...to CONDEMN?

simbrialuis @simbrialuis (387) • Philippines 2 Jul 07

WORDS of GOD should be used to encourage people. I just wonder why others use GOD's WORDS to condemn others. DO you use GODs WORDS to condemn people? to condemn unholies? to condemn non-believers? Many mylotters DO this for...

olivagon We cannot condemn, not even God condemns people, they do it theiselves all alone. The Bible says that those who will not believe are already condemned, because they are sinners. But for everybody there is a way to salvation, and we should encourage people to...

If hell doesn't exist, would you still be a Christian?

Amstardam @Amstardam (1348) • United States 19 Jun 07

olivagon I love Jesus because of what he did for me: he saved me from sin and has changed my life. I never thought in hell before, so it is not for fear of hell. Christianity is the imitation of Jesus, that is so great because it gives us back the image of God. I...

Did you ever pay to enter a business in internet and what was the result?

vivienna @vivienna (582) • Venezuela 19 Jun 07

I'm very conscious that many of those "get rich while sleeping" sites in Internet simply want to catch people, and cash in between $5 to $1000, or even more. What I can't understand is that these sites may be still online, able to...

olivagon This is is ll fiction. The book is some entertainment because of the suspense, but has very foolish arguments. The movie is a third' class movie. I´m not catholic, but if I were I would protest. There is so much disrespect to the Church.
