Don't twist the Bible to suite you

Submission! Submission! ! Submission! !! My grouse with this word whenever I hear it is, how small-minded men do mistakes it for servility and as such, expects servitude rather than loyalty, from their wives.

Submit to your conscience... We all know what is good and bad
By doing this, you have submitted to God

To anybody and everybody claiming to have seen God or spoke with Him, or even played with Him...

I wonder who told you that the bible is my standard. . . I'm too liberally conscientious to have the bible as my standard. Live and let live.

So worship God alone him and him alone. Jesus is just a messenger he sent to the people of Israel and he said in the bible JOHN 5:30 "By myself I can do nothing; I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just, for I seek not to please myself but him who sent me." Passages that say there is only one God:

"For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one [echad] flesh. " Genesis 2:24
"there is no one like Yahweh our God." Exodus 8:10
"Yahweh, He is God; there is no other besides Him." Deuteronomy 4:35
"Yahweh, He is God in heaven above and on the earth below; there is no other." Deuteronomy 4:39
"See now that I, I am He, And there is no god besides Me" Deuteronomy 32:39
"Hear, O Israel! Yahweh is our God, Yahweh is one [echad]!" Deuteronomy 6:4
"You are great, O Lord God; for there is none like You, and there is no God besides You" 2 Samuel 7:22
"For who is God, besides Yahweh? And who is a rock, besides our God?" 2 Samuel 22:32
"Yahweh is God; there is no one else." 1 Kings 8:60
"You are the God, You alone [bad], of all the kingdoms of the earth." 2 Kings 19:15
"O Lord, there is none like You, nor is there any God besides You" 1 Chronicles 17:20
"You alone [bad] are Yahweh." Nehemiah 9:6
"For who is God, but Yahweh? And who is a rock, except our God" Psalm 18:31
"You alone [bad], Lord, are God." Isaiah 37:20
"Before Me there was no God formed, And there will be none after Me." Isaiah 43:10
"'I am the first and I am the last, And there is no God besides Me." Isaiah 44:6
"Is there any God besides Me, Or is there any other Rock? I know of none." Isaiah 44:8
"I am Yahweh, and there is no other; Besides Me there is no God." Isaiah 45:5
"Surely, God is with you, and there is none else, No other God." Isaiah 45:14
"I am Yahweh, and there is none else." Isaiah 45:18
"Is it not I, Yahweh? And there is no other God besides Me, A righteous God and a Savior; There is none except Me." Isaiah 45:21
"I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like Me" Isaiah 46:9

Worship only one God and submit to him alone (which is the true meaning of Islam).

You have to submit to all authorities that submit themselves to God.Incase,u found urslf within the authories dat want to trap u e.g, bad parents,govt,etc submit but possibly make them know they are wrong as Jesus always did,telling ppl dat taxes(4 Caesar) n tithes can't lead to heaven,but if it bcoms difficult,get away from them(Babylon d Great).But most importantly,try n pray to stop such temptation.

Christianity does not preach submission, Christianity preaches humility, only slaves submit.
I think the OP is not a Christian.

Seun, people like this OP is one of the valid reason why Christians need to have a separate forum

if they had a separate forum, how do you expect them to show light to the unsaved?
