1. Grace...you can't earn grace. Grace is given to you. What have we done to earn it??? The Bible says not to do works for Salvation, but to do works in the name of God.
2. ONLY Jesus was concieved without sin. What's the significance of Jesus dying on the cross is his mother was without sin as well??? other than the fact that it was for our salvation, but it wouldn't be so if Mary was perfect.
3. You're still praying to Mary, you're asking someone that didn't play much of a role in Christianity except giving birth to the Son of God, which He could have chosen anyone else for that matter. Giving birth WAS a big deal, but not something that makes them a saint. again...she was the SURROGATE mother.
And I agree with Crimson with that post (although that has nothing to do with what I'm posting about now). If Bush runs again...he's got my vote. I'm a Republican and not afraid to say so. Even if he wasn't a Republican or I wasn't, I would still respect the President's decision on things, it's a thing called respect. Which many people have forgotten about because they think slandering the President's reasonings for war is in the 1st Ammendment. Tell me...where does it say that you can create lies because you're opposed to what the President is doing????
Speak your opinion, you have the right, but don't say shit u don't know. Like war for the oil...where the hell did u protestors get that??? You may have gotten the idea...but where in the war is there been that we've captured the oil fields for ourselves??? We're protecting them from being set on fire again...but we are not using the oil for ourselves. If you're gonna use the 1st Ammendment to your ability...don't abuse it.
And just one more thing...remember how we got the right to voice our opinion. We had to claim our independance from Britain, which led us into war. Now...you're gonna say that you don't see how war helped us there. And I bet you don't see that the THREAT of war stopped Communism from controling the world. And you'll probably tell me that trying to help Europe in WW2 was in vain. War solves ALOT of issues. YES...it WOULD be better if we could solve them without war...but we can't. War is apart of life...there will still be more to come. And also...if you're a believer and yet a anti-war pacifist...then tell me that God didn't tell the Isrealites to engage in WARS with countries. Like the City of Jerhico...true...they didn't use violence...but it still was war. And many other times. He told the Isrealites to raise up against their captors and etc... War is what needs to be done. That's all there is to it.
whoa.
