God Exists.
If you question that God Exists, you go to hell A place of eternal suffering.
If you want proof that God exists you go to hell.
And now the kicker!
If you don't follow the people who are "Leaders" who "Know the way" and are "closer to god than you" You go to hell
Sounds rather Orwellian to me...

Blasphemy, sedition, and treason. As I've said before.....do some research, k?
Why is it that I know more about Christianity than many Christians?
In Marlowe's Faustus the playwright made clear that faith is not a concept to be rationalised. The protagonist was taken to Hell because he kept trying to think his predicament through in rational terms eg "I could repent but the devil will break my legs, will the godhead hear me despite my low self-esteem? etc."

Of following a religion that was outlawed in the Roman time? He broke a law, he died for it. I can traffic drugs into Bali, and claim its my religion to do so, and I will still die.

follow leaders? follow those who are closer to god? this is totally against gods wishes. you follow christ, not someone who claims to be closer to him than you. does the term antichrist mean anything to you?

I'm not losing Lana. It's called faith. Can't you at least pour your heart into something that's really unclear. One man made the earth and it's God
No. Because that is not at all what I believe happened. I don't follow things based on faith. Want me to think something is true? Give me cold hard evidence to support it.
You can't even answer where God came from or who made him.

Listen Lana
The view regarding God that is set forth consistently in the Bible is this: He did not come from anywhere. No one made the Creator of the universe. He had no beginning, and will have no ending. He is the eternal, self-existing Being. The testimony of the Scriptures is this:
God is “everlasting” in nature (Isa. 40:28), which is to say, he is “eternal” as to his very essence (Rom. 16:26; 1 Tim. 1:17). His existence is “from everlasting to everlasting.” Before the material creation was spoken into existence, he always was (Psa. 90:2).

You can do the same thing in the US
It is ruled illegal to do drugs even if they are part of your religion. it was a supreme Court Case!
Yeah, so if Jesus smuggled drugs, he would die. He broke a law, he died. Thats my point to whoever I quoted. 🙂

lets see. trafficking drugs vs. giving your life for all mankind. which is the bigger scarifice?
No, you missed what I was saying. Jesus didnt walk up to the Romans and say 'Hey, kill me, I want to die for everyone'
He broke a law, and was sentenced to death. Thats why he died. What would have happened if he was somewhere where it was accepted and not illegal?
