Prayer Requests

This is a place to place prayer requests. I have known prayer to be very powerful when praying through Jesus. 2 or more people praying is even more powerful.:d

I see prayer as a personal moment between man and God.

Why would you want to post your payer in a public forum?

My prayer request is that people find their way out of the illusion that God is out side of us.

Can I place a request without believing in God or praying myself?

Go for it. Praying is a much older idea then Christianity.

Meh. I'm sure he would too...it's a decent book. Heinlein's theories on religion are highly derivative of religious practices that are much more fleshed out in real life religions, so it's not exactly revolutionary material. But he presents in an interesting manner, and considering that the majority of his audience is probably orthodox christian, his way of looking at things is certainly a change of pace.

I got it handed to me too years ago by a new-age religious friend who thought it was his new Bible. It can certainly be a profound read, but getting religious philosophies from fiction writers is still a tenuous position to be in, at best.

I quite liked it. For the ideas as well as for the general story ...he is a rather good Author in my opinion. I wouldn't take it as Bible, although the ideas he portrays are certainly as probable as the Bible. Many ofhis other theories portrayed in this book are very likable and reasonable though. That it has fantasy elements to it was for me not even the major part.

I pray that God well send me an email saying "Dude, I'm real" 😛

Amen. We should all be praying.

For our country, for our elected officials, for a victory for values in the coming elections, and obiviously for all of the people who post at KMC that don't believe in Jesus.

Believe in Jesus or believe in Christianity? There is a difference.

That's very considerate of you, but you do know your prayers wont make a difference for those who do not beleive in your religion, right ?

You can pray all you want for Athiests/Agnostics/Buddhists/Liberals/Gays...whoever...to see things you way, but that will never happen.

All you can pray for is who obtains more power....

Jesus.

I could care less about a religion.

What I have is a relationship with the very real God and his son who died for me.

The Holy Spirit resides within me, giving me wisdom and strength and a connection with God.

That's what's important, and I guess you would call those things Christianity, but my focus is on praying for folks to have a relationship with God.

I am a Buddhist and I believe in the teaching of Jesus. Does that count?

This sounds extremely noble...

But you cannot blame people for not beleiving. Sadly, Christianity is not only represented by good people, but also by hateful people. The Bible itself is also filled with contradictions....

Believing in a monotheistic God and in the text that aims to represent him IS NOT EASY....trust me, I've been there. After 18 years of being a Christian, I turned away...sorry, but it is not for me.

If it works for you then GREAT ! I hope you are happy in your religion, and I hope many wondors arise.

But as for me....I don't need it.
