6precious102 No, it is not right to impose any religious ideology on anyone, but there's nothing wrong with trying to convince others of your position. Unless a person is persuaded to abandon their worldly habits, it's a waste of time to expect that they will give up what...

6precious102 Because of Revelation 13:8 which says in part, "...the Lamb (Jesus Christ) who was slain from the creation of the world," I believe the tree was put into the Garden to test Adam and Eve, but God knew they would fail the test.

What according to you is Salvation ?

juniorance @juniorance (250) • India 31 Mar 13

Often I hear from my Christian Brothers that Salvation lies in the cross, i.e believing that the Son of God died in the cross our sins. Is that so ? If Salvation really lies in the Cross, what about the people who came before...
