Only problem was that they thought Pharaoh was god.

Not to mention the fact that Joseph was sold into slavery and took the ONE true GOD to Egypt with him (in faith) to only be followed by his brethern and family during th time of drought......The Egyptians did not worship the one true God as their gods are many including HORUS which would end up being BEL, Marduke, Jupiter, Zeus and ultimatey Allah............
 
good , i'm glad you can say that directly. i'm not angry at the persons -- i'd like to see them healed... but when they post information directly heretical or lies or soul-destroying and so forth,
i just have been very direct (it seemed when i tried to be more 'gentle' , they compounded their sin then by defending it more... even if others already had 'gently' with scripture shown them jesus' way in and by HIS WORD. )
some have very clearly been defending a false doctrine, which i 'know' or realize they cannot let go of too easily - it's part of their 'safety net' / 'support system'....
and
i've been praying over time to proceed with better approach IF THERE IS ONE.

thank you.

I concur with Willie. Good show man
 
Exodus 20:3 "You shall have no other gods before me. - Bible Hub

biblehub.com/exodus/20-3.htm‎

Thou shalt have no other gods before me. This is the first command, and is
opposed to the polytheism of the Gentiles, the Egyptians, from whom Israel was
just ...

and the one true creator commanded his people to NEVER seek out the false gods of other nations,
to never follow them,
to not even marry their wives because the wives would lead them into pagan worship(false, heathen).

there is ONE CREATOR, "I AM WHO I AM" , YAHWEH.
and
there is SALVATION ONLY IN "JESUS" and in no other.


ALL other gods are dead, lifeless, unable to give life, and they are all LIES with no truth in them.

I've talked to people in each of those religions. They told me they worship one God. I don't think they had any reason to lye to me because I didn't tell them I was a Christian for the reason you give. There is no tolerance for other religious believes in most Christians. Why is that?

Pharoah "a" god, not just one. Pharoah one god of many, and of many pharoahs. one particular pharoah, Akhenaten, forced Egypt to worship only his family's god, Aten, but even under Akhenaten, the priests of Egypts hundreds of other gods rebelled, and after Akhenaten, they went right back to worshiping cows, frogs, insects, and everything else you can imagine, along with their traditional pantheon.

Michael, how much do you actually know about Egyptology?

you know you can't trust Oprah, right?
 
I know that we all wish Jesus would come and this madness would stop, but the reality is that we don't know when Jesus will come as in the day or the hour. For some of us He will come sooner than His second coming in that we don't know when our time is up meaning we should always have our hearts ready to meet the Lord as we don't know when we will take our next breath.

It is our life to live for and with Jesus allowing the Holy Spirit to live in our hearts and listening and obeying God as He directs our lives. Jesus has saved us and we allow Him to change us from the inside out becoming more and more like Jesus every day sanctification is the work of a life time and it is us allowing the Holy Spirit to make the changes needed in our lives as God makes us new creations.....I always liked this song.......

I want to be ready when Jesus comes,
I want to be ready when Jesus comes.
Earth's pleasures grow dim
While I'm waiting for Him;
Lord, keep me till Jesus comes.

Lmbo. I did say they were wrong!!!! You don't need to explain that to me. The Greeks were just as screwed up. I know that!!!
 
if one's only source of information about world religions is "ancient aliens" on the history channel, one is sure to be completely in error.

Michael,
I think God can, and does, touch each and every person on the planet, no matter what their "religion". And I do not believe that He cannot give them an understanding of what He wants for us all. Nor do I accept that they have to hear the actual English pronunciation, of the word, "Jesus", for them to be given an understanding of Christ's ways.

But...... just like millions of us here in America, following what we have been taught of an old, white haired man, wielding a flaming sword, just itching to make the Earth run red with the blood of unbelievers, we are ALL going to have to accept JESUS CHRIST into our hearts, and begin living the love He taught... no matter what we each may call Him in our esoteric language and understanding of His being.

The right and wrong of men's traditions (no matter WHAT the religion) has to be seen by each of our hearts.... and we have to repent of the kind of skewed worship we have been practicing, and turn to only the kind of life and love for all people, everywhere that our "Jesus" modeled for us. Even if we have never heard (nor ever will hear) the particular word another culture uses to express that Spirit of Eternal Love.

could it be that ancient aliens told Michael that every religion on earth is monotheistic?
:rolleyes:

dude, it's not that Egypt's pantheism (read: not monotheistic) is wrong. it's that you're apparently not as knowledgeable about world religions as you purport to be. Egypt was wrong, Greece was wrong, Michael was wrong.

that is all. i'm going to bed now, k k ?

peace.

I am a Chritian. If I agreed with their faith I would convert. I don't!!!

I don't know jack about Moslems. I don't really want to either!!!
 
I think we do it with love (like Jesus did), since "today's world" is not our goal, but rather The Kingdom of God.

Love is a very complicated word!!! That's why I didn't use it. It just means so many different things. It means something different to almost anyone you talk to about it. Just didn't think I could get my point a crossed using it.

Well, a very intensive study of the world empires will reveal an ongoing attempt by Satan to bring about the worship of himself in a man which has been continually hindered by God as it was not yet time...the empires being....

Egypt-->Assyria-->Babylon-->Persia-->Greece-->Rome-->what Rome devolves into which is the 10 horned beast of Revelation, of the which the LITTLE HORN subdues 3 of the 10 unto himself which results in the 8th and final kindgom to rule over the Middle East<--the kingdom of the beast under the Little Horn..so called (anti-Christ)....What I have found is the names of the gods change, but it is one and the same...Satan

Horus-->Bel-->Marduke--->Jupiter-->Zeus-->ALLAH.......I dont have my chart with me so I skipped the one for Persia but this is what I have found.....When the Lord writes to the churches in ASIA in Revelation he tells the church at Pergamos that He knows they dwell where SATAN'S seat is.....the throne of ZEUS was located at Pergamos.........and the men of the kingdoms were worshipped as God......with Alexander the Great we see the concept of the SON of a god (ZEUS) coming online as Satan attempts to mimic Jesus and the Father.....

sigh.... or ???

scripture clearly says the world is getting worse and worse, and will be like constaqntine was - forcing everyone to comply - get the real id/ mark/ number/ whatever it works out to be
to be
able to buy or sell anything..... and
all the people of the world will continue to refuse worshiping demons - even when 1/3 of mankind or however many is dead --- the 2/3 remaining do not even think of turning to GOD.

and many other sure things in these end days (1 day or hundreds of more years) as the world
wickedness increases,
and the righteous continue to be righteous, even unto death/
until
yahshua returns.


Interesting. And, I see Jesus teaching just the opposite. I think when mankind learns not to hate his neighbor, Jesus will come. The bride will finally be ready.
 
It's called thinking out of the box. Jeff. I know for a fact that Jew's, Hondo's and bidist's all worship one God.The same God we worship. They just do it a little differently. One positive thing about both Hindo's and Botist's is that they are taulerent (so) of other religions. Obviously you aren't even taoleremt in your own. Get a grib man!!!!!

Stop right there, Michael! This is totally unbiblical and shows limited understanding of what Hindus and Buddhists actually believe. I would go so far as to say you have never met a Hindu or a Buddhist.

Fact - In India, your "tolerant" Hindus are killing Christians, burning down their villages and throwing acid on their children. There are laws in many Hindu dominated states which do not allow people to convert from Hinduism to Christianity, with threat of jail or death.

Fact - Buddhists in countries such as Burma are killing and persecuting Christians. NOT the ordinary people, but the monks! I have a Buddhist friend, and she has tried to convert me on numerous occasions, because I am going to "Buddhist hell." So much for the myth of Buddhist tolerance.

It was Jesus who clearly said of himself:

"Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." John 14:6

So if you don't want to believe Jesus, that is your perogative. But please do not patronize us with your unbiblical and uninformed nonsense! As for worshiping the same God, Hindus worship 300 million gods and most Buddhists do not worship ANY gods, because they do not believe in God, but focus everything on themselves and getting off the wheel of karma.

Jews are mostly atheistic, and their rejection of Christ speaks for itself as to which god they worship. Not Jesus!

You tube Walid Shoebat anti-Christ, the man gives a very interesting take on the antichrist.....if you haven't seen it at least give it a look...I know OT prophecy, Egypt assyria,babylon, all these are middle eastern countries, he's from palestine, a former terrorist, converted to Christianity, very bright and has a very interesting understanding on things....

This is Universalism by any name!

The God of Muslims says kill the jews, My God says he's their king.
The God of Muslims says Christ is gonna speak on behalf of the Mahdi, (mohammad when he returns), and tell every one that Christianity was really wrong, that we should convert to muslims and follow the Mahdi.

THIS IS WHAT THEY BELIEVE MAN!
They deny Christ was actually crucified or that God has any son.....all this from Mohammed and what Allah told him,........so it doesn't sound like they are serving the same God man.

In fact their MAHDI, who is returning to cut off all these heads, and their version of Christ being his prophet, sound a WHOLE LOT like our Christian anti Christ and the false prophet.

You tube Muslim converts to Christianity, I had no idea what they thought either......Walid Shoebat breaks it down the best....
