Re: Touched
No, what I am saying is that the song that John Lennon wrote was through his fustration in the church (not God) and how he feels it screws up the world. He thinks that it is the cause blocking us from being one.
I know if you take God out of the picture, we will never be as one.
Both John Lennon and I share in the fustration of the world not being one. The difference is he blames it on a bunch of things, but man.
I blame it on man, and know that God is the only way to bring it together.
His desire in his heart was for the good. Of course it was, God put it there.

Re: Touched
Remember in the bible of how the temples were made from gold and the finest things?
Who was it that spoke at a fish fry, a bath house, a wedding, beneath the trees, on a roadside?

Re: Touched
Whether you believe in Christ or not is not important for us to get along is it?
But that does not mean that I do not want you to have a relationship with Christ like I do. It should be problem free and bring peace in your life, not cause you trouble.
We could get along, just for the sake of getting along couldn't we? Or is that impossible because of to much deversity. I guess its just a pipe dream.
Christ had noproblem getting along with people everywhere he went, and he went into all aspects of life. It was the selfish ones that didn't want to know him, because if they did, they would loose all there worldly power. That was bad enough, now we have people who actually use the name Christ to gain worldly powers. How pathetic.
This vision of world peace is not so ascwed anyway, I believe its going to happen one day before Christ comes back

Re: Touched
I agree jar, but Jesus did not come to change the law right?
I think those things you mentioned should be first priority. How do we do that? there people who have had to learn hard lessons trying to achieve those goals, and the reality of it is, a $200,000 sound system, kind of disgusting huh?
