    It’s unbelievable that you don’t have any quotes from the most popular person ever, Jesus. On of my favorites:

    “With GOD all things are possible” Matthew 19:26

    Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and it will be done.
    Matthew 21:20-22 (in Context) Matthew 21 (Whole Chapter)

  7. Vincent Says:

    Its really surprising there are no quotes taken from the bible. The bible has everything more than you ask for. And anyone says no God will know when he dies weather god is there or not.

    Shaun Anderson and the lot.

    Being a former chrisitian and now a beleiver in the torah and laws of God, I can tell you Chrisitianity or more specific the new testament is NOT of god.

    Go read in hebrew, (yes its meant for the jews to inform us, not the romans or anglo-saxons,) who with their paganised ways corrupted the scriptures both old and new testament through changing alot of the hebrew words into pagan jesus who if u ead carefully never fulfill some of the laws or prohecy.

    Dont ask me why. ask god. I still beleive in god.

  11. Nunya Says:

    It’s always amazes me how those with the least knowledge of the Bible are the ones who misinterpret it the most.

    It’s best to keep your mouth shut and let people presume you ignorant, than to open your mouth and prove it

  12. Su Says:

    an inbred is one descended from a close relative – of which hopefully none of us are anymore – still better to be an inbred than from an ape or a freak of nature – (how does that work anyway – you can throw all the ingredients you like into an oven and turn it on and you will never end up with a birthday cake)

  13. Boots Says:

    The Buddha
    He said all religions are streams flowing into the same river.

  14. Boots Says:

    “Love One Another As `I’ Have Loved You” – Loving one another is all empowering – Loving One Another Releases Us All From The Bondages Of All Other Things That Are Not Of Love – Loving One Another Is The Total Essence Of All Truth.

  15. Boots Says:

    Jesus Christ was NOT a Christian – He was here for every-one – all peoples – All Man made religious doctrines have much to answer for when He returns.

  16. Al Says:

    “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom…” Proverbs 9:10

    “Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.” Psalm 100:3

    Jesus said, “I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.” John 10:11

    “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

    Lastly, here is some wisdom from me, “It’s better to believe and find out later that you were right; than not
    to believe and find out later that you were wrong.”

    After death there is no second chance: “And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment.” Hebrews 9:27
