Below are three biblical scriptures that speak of God having a fore-knowledge of us before we are born. 1. Because we are His workmanship. Because He loves us even in the womb: "For You created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's womb. I Praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from You when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, Your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in Your book before one of them came to be." Psalm 139:13-16 2. Because He knew us even before we were formed in the womb: "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart..." Jeremiah 1:5 3. Because even before we're born we are important to Him: "...Before I was born the Lord called me..." Isaiah 49:1b

How can god love someone when that someone has even come into existence (been born) ? It is almost like telling..hey I love that new Nikon camera model..when Nikon Corporation has not even brought the idea of making a new Nikon camera model.

what the hell is wrong with you dalli. do you think you are the only one who have read bible. i have read bible so many times. it is not science. it is just something some people wrote long time ago so that they can influence people to follow them. it was okay at that time. but time has now changed you can't just quote bible and think that i will believe that or back your argument. it is not a sound argument. you see if someone says hydrogen and oxygen combine to form water and energy i will go check in the literature published from different institutions and if i am not convinced i will go into a lab put H and O in a container and ignite it sure enough a pop is heard and heat and water is formed. citing bible doesn't prove anything. it's like reading harry potter and believing in magic and telling people look it is true and quoting paragraphs from harry potter. see i don't have any problem if you believe in something but if you are in a public domain and claiming something you have to prove it. otherwise what is your purpose.? obviously you can't convert people like me. if reading beblke several times did not impress me i doubt that you would have any extraordinary talent to paraphrase bible for me. thank you

Birbhadra, Thaha Panyen and Khaobaadi, etc As I have said in a previous post God has given everyone a talent or ability that they are really good at. Sometimes mulitple talents. Not everyone who is Christian has a talent for teaching or even understanding scripture. Sometimes we have to be trained into our talents. Most Christians don't have the talent for teaching nor understanding scripture otherwise we wouldn't need preachers and pastors to lead us in church and even among those who do have a talent for it there is many times disagreement for what scripture means. However, for you I would say you are clinging too tight to your own belief system. I'm not saying convert to Chrisitianity or anything for that matter. This world needs people like you because you remind us that even God wants us to question our beliefs otherwise why would he tell us to pursue wisdom.

"god made day and night first and then sun and moon how is that possible?" Is it for real??? This is laughable..... I don't like this particular annoying attitude of human beings irrespective of what religion they follow - they don't use the brain that their God has given to them and instead follow books that have been written by a human just like them thousands of years ago... I can understand that people then unarguably followed them because they were neither scientifically nor mentally advanced enough to see it otherwise. But some people still do that in the 21st century???? Unbelievable!!! I also don't like it when people don't admit that their religion is not flawless - instead keep iterating some idiotic blunt lies like an enegizer bunny on a run just to make their religion look good. In fact, they go as far as claiming that their holy book is very accurate and those who say something against it are complete morons. What the use of such religion if it cannot give people the ability to diffrerentiate between right and wrong *shrugs*... I better be an atheist, if making someone stupid is all that a religion does....

Camilla recentlyu fell i n india.

Dally wrote, "world needs people like you because you remind us that even God wants us to question our beliefs otherwise why would he tell us to pursue wisdom" He questions to only on your belief, nothing else? Otherwise, how come he forgives you even for your wrong deeds? So, belief is everything that takes you to heaven and good or bad deeds have no weight while judging your suitability in to heaven? Does He send you back to earth or hell, if there exists any if He finds you not suitable for the post in heaven after some times?

Some people said knowledge changes everything. Galileo changed the Bible because of his theory. It's a proven fact that a virgin can't give birth unless she is cloned. So you either have to accept cloning or else you have to accept that Mary wasn't a virgin. Both cases, you morons lose. Your arguments are baseless. So the day when cloning humans is achieved, they either have to change the bible or throw it in the trash. Blocking truth in the name of religion is futile and eventually truth will come out. Religion will and should change when humans decide to change it. Make your own religion and change it as many times as you want. Make the rules, break the rules, be logical like Birbhadra. I think he's the only person with sound arguments here. Jesus = Son of god. So who is god?? Yeah that's a good question. You would have to ask Mary on who screwed her. Don't be surprized if she says fountaindew lol.. I'M GOD I RULE!! YEAH!!!

Gosh: Look at all these people who say they do not believe in any religion and mock my religion at the same time. Who is telling you to convert or even believe in Jesus? But those of us who believe we believe for our own reasons. I have no interest in telling you how i converted. Gosh, what is wrong if we believe in certain things. Is anyone is Sajha telling you to convert or trying to say anything ? All we were talking about was about us - Nepali Christians and then lunatics like Bathroomcoffee comes in and start asking questions and i was actually trying to explain my point of view. I really do not care if anyone believe in me or my explanations because i did not became a Christian for you. And oh yes i am a great fan of Tom Hanks and so might watch the movie for that purpose. Why do you Nepalis have so much prejudiced judgement towards Christians? And i really do not know where other religious people go after death (there are lots of theories and i am sure it is written in your own books) but i know that Christians go to Heaven, it is written in the Bible and that is what i am concerned. You can read you own stuff and do what you want but i really have no interest in your religion.

Why is it that whenever one of us Nepali Christians start a thread to get in touch with one another or seek one another's opinion, we have to come under attack and a debate has to be started? Where is the religious tolerance ("dharmik sahishnuta") that we were supposed to be proud of according our primary/middle school textbooks in Nepal? Does that apply to only minorities like us who are supposed to be tolerant towards Hindus and Buddhists? When sambhai started this thread I did not think it would go to this extent. Look at the original thread by sambhai. It only addresses us Nepali Christians. He did not ask for anyone else's opinion about Christianity. To all non-Christians, let this be clear: - we believe in the Holy Trinity, and thus, Christianity - we are not trying to convert you or anyone else - we don't think you are wrong and we are right or vice versa - we just want to reach out to other Nepalese who share our religious views so: sabialai chetana bhayaa

Bathroom Coffee: It is called "free will" my friend and we all have it. What use is existance without the ability to decide for yourself? God did not make us robots because he wants us to love him because we want to. Also, The Vatican does what the Vatican does that is why not everyone who is Chrisitian have the same beliefs. By the way there are many Christian organizations that are doing charitable work in Africa. What is free will Dalli ? Free will with out logic and reasoning is Stupidity too. YEAH YOU ARE ULTIMATELY THE ONE MAKING DECISIONS THEN WHERE DOES YOUR GOD STAND ? GOD DOES NOT TELL YOU WHEN YOU ARE HUNGRY YOU STOMACH AND YOUR BODY AND YOU BRAIN DOES. YEah Vatican does what Vatican does BUT THEY REPRESENT YOUR COLLECTIVE AS AN ORGANIZATION. Its just like people hold those Mulla's and Islamic radical schhols for all the Jihadists. He he Many Christiian Organizations doing Charitable work in Africa ? he he Please DO NOT MAKE ME LAUGH !! ha ha ha Thats why there is a GENOCIDE taking place in Darfur as we speak right ? Thats why your fellow christian are dying of famine in western Africa right ? Bathroom Coffee: I think you are misunderstanding faith. Faith is merely confidence in God's love for you. Many people think faith is some power but it is not it is not that complicated. It can be powerful though just like having faith that your car will start for work in the morning otherwise you'd not even try starting your car. Faith is confidence of God's love for me ? he he NO I don't think faith is POWER ! It can be poweerful like it was in WACO TEXAS ? right ? You example for a car is a big blunder right there. The car starts every moring because I MAINTAIN IT EVERY DAY by putting gas, taking it for tune up, changing oil etc. etc. NOT BECAUSE I HAVE FAITH IN GOD. CAN GOD START MY CAR WITH HIS MAGIC WAND ? NOPE. Bathroom Coffee: I could be wrong but I think Catholics are the single largest denomination in the U.S. Born again denominations are just way more vocal. YEah Catholics are the largest on paper. BUt its the Born agains who tilt all the scales in American Judicial system. Like Terry Schiavo, Roe Vs Wade, 10 commandments in court house, Tax Cuts. As a matter of fact Catholics are big but are still considered minors cause they are not as well organized like the Pat Robertsons, or Jimmy Swagerts. Bathroom Coffee: As far as thousands of people dying in Africa God never promised there would not be misery or suffering. From my understanding he is saving that promise for after the judgement and subsequent renewing of the earth. If god is not going to help in aiding misery and suffering then why even pray for him ? After death ? WHERE NOBODY HAS EVER BEEN ? HOW DO YOU KNOW WHERE WE WILL GO AFTER YOU DIE ? ITS JUST MERE SPECULATION. THERE IS NO PROOF OF WHAT HAPPENS AFTER WE DIE. CHRISTIANS USE IT AS THEIR LOTTERY TICKET. he he forgiven: ditto. Bathroom Coffee: I talk to God but I have to admit the conversation is very one sided. YEAH ONE SIDED. And it will always be that way, and if he does start talking back to you you might just end up in the Psyward too.

Sheetalb, "Gosh: Look at all these people who say they do not believe in any religion and mock my religion at the same time. Who is telling you to convert or even believe in Jesus? But those of us who believe we believe for our own reasons." Dude DO NOT GET PARANOID ! he he All we are doing is starting a dailog which has turned into a debate. Tell me how the hell are we supposed to understand your belief if you don't tell us why ? Its called explanation, till you do people will descrimiinate you. Man use your brain believer. And if you keep responding saying our own reasons then people will keep making you feel like an you do now. "I have no interest in telling you how i converted. Gosh, what is wrong if we believe in certain things. Is anyone is Sajha telling you to convert or trying to say anything ? All we were talking about was about us - Nepali Christians and then lunatics like Bathroomcoffee comes in and start asking questions and i was actually trying to explain my point of view. I really do not care if anyone believe in me or my explanations because i did not became a Christian for you." Fine you don't want to tell me why you converted. THEN I WILL KEEP LOOKING AT YOU LIKE A SOCIAL OUTCAST TOO THEN. I TOLD YOU WHAT I BELIEVE IN . WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOURS ? he he Unless you are in it for the bebefits(we all are aware of how the missioneries bribe tribal people to convert). Ha ha ha I AM A LUNATIC NOW ? Just for asking about your fath and belief ? hehe YEAH YOU DID NOT BECOME CHRISTIAN FOR US YOU BECAME CHRISTIANS TO BENEFIT YOURSELF. he he Why do you Nepalis have so much prejudiced judgement towards Christians? And i really do not know where other religious people go after death (there are lots of theories and i am sure it is written in your own books) but i know that Christians go to Heaven, it is written in the Bible and that is what i am concerned. Wanna know why Nepali people are prejudiced towards Christianity ? ha ha ha YOU OF ALL THE PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW BEING A NEPALI. If you don't ... I SUGGEST YOU GO READ THE HISTORY OF NEPAL. They came as Padres and tried to take over the fuggin country thats why !!!!! IS THAT A GOOD ENOUGH REASON FOR YOU ? YOU WILL GOTO HEAVEN CAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS SO ? ha ha ha BIBLE TELLS YOU TO GO JUMP OFF A BRIDGE TOO. WILL YOU JUMP ? he he I ain't cause some book written 2 thousand yrs ago says so. All I am telling you Christians is to think ! Use your Brain, Don't go just because Bible says so, or some preacher says so. YOU ALWAYS GOTTA QUESSTION ..BE IT POPE ... BE IT BIBLE BE IT BRAMIN. If something does not make sense---> ask------> do not accept anything----->cause its just because ---->WHAT is the answer . In Christ I do not trust BATHROOMCOFFEE

Someone sent it to me today. I like one point very much: yes, that's "arguments--baseless" mainly about the God. Whatever one wish, he can believe on anything and argue that their faith takes them to heaven. 21 century. How true is this??? ================================= Communication ------- Wireless Dress --------------- Topless Telephone ----------- Cordless Cooking ------------- Fireless Youth --------------- Jobless Religion ------------ Creedless Food ---------------- Fatless Faith --------------- Godless Labour -------------- Effortless Conduct ------------- Worthless Relation ------------ Loveless Attitude ------------ Careless Feelings ------------ Heartless Politics ------------ Shameless Education ----------- Valueless Follies ------------- Countless Arguments ----------- Baseless Boss ------------ Brainless Job ------------- Thankless Salary ---------- Very less

Bathroom Coffee: We Nepali Christians are so used to people like you who are so jobless and want to reason out on our religion so there is no question of being PARANOID. I am sure every Chrsitian who spent time in Nepal are used to the reaction people give when we say we are Christians. So you are not new and it is not a new thing. And dude, it is the Britishers who tried to invade not Christians OK. that is your history lesson for the day!!!!
