What is considered sin? Is smoking a sin? Is getting angry from time to time to sin? Is divorce a sin even if you're married to someone wicked?

no i dnt think smoking is a sin afterall some pastors do smoke, it deals more with your health not with your spirituality
i do think not controling your anger can be a sin, cause when one is angry all sorts of thoughts run through their minds and sometimes it may lead them to commit other sins out of anger. so it is a bad not to control your anger
as for divorces depending on the marriage, some divorces are justified so it wouldnt be considered a sin

davidylan:
It took a review of a transcript to "realize" a pastor wasnt clear on the very foundation of Christianity? Unbelievable.

yea very unbelievable, he calls himself a pastor, and i wonder why he hasnt come across the following verses in the bible. i mean seriously why did he find it hard to say Jesus is the only to heaven as clearly stated in the bible.

John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Acts 4:12
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

John 3:36
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

1 Timothy 2:5-6
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.


On the December 23, 2007 edition of Fox News Sunday, host Chris Wallace brought up criticisms of Osteen's lack of Scripture reference in his sermons, as well as his hesitancy to discuss sin as an integral part of life. Osteen responded: "And I am ultimately trying to do that, but I'm trying to teach people how to live their everyday lives, and so I do focus on it, probably not as much as some people would like." and His sermons and writings are sometimes reproached for their use of the concept of the prosperity gospel, a belief that wealth and power are rewards for pious Christians, by some people.

and when Larry asked him his stances on gay and abortion here was what he said.

KING: How about issues that the church has feelings about? Abortion? Same-sex marriages?

OSTEEN: Yeah. You know what, Larry? I don't go there. I just ,

KING: You have thoughts, though.

OSTEEN: I have thoughts. I just, you know, I don't think that a same-sex marriage is the way God intended it to be. I don't think abortion is the best. I think there are other, you know, a better way to live your life. But I'm not going to condemn those people. I tell them all the time our church is open for everybody.

i definitely would listen to them, cox sometimes when some pple are in love, they choose to be blinded by it, and b4 they regain their sight the damage is already done.

KINGS WEALTH FOUNDATION IN COLLABORATION WITH BLUE GATE COMPUTERS TECHNOLOGY.U.S
PRESENTS TO YOU THE EASIEST AND THE QUICKIEST MONEY MAKING ON THE INTERNET!THE BLUE CHIPS "DISCOVER HOW YOU CAN EASILY MAKE OVER $4000/WEEKLY ONLINE WITHOUT SELLING, ADVERTISING, REFERRING OR OWNING A WEBSITE"
Dear Fellow Nigerians, I'm going to keep this short and sweet - I'm not going to bore you with the usual "rags-to-riches" story because I'm pretty sure you don't want to hear it. What I will say though, is this,  If you're tired of all the so-called "systems" and business opportunities that require you to sell affiliate products, run pay per click advertising campaigns, operate websites or recruit new members then I have excellent news for you. Keep reading because I guarantee that this will be the most important piece of information you will ever read about making money online,  or in general for that matter. I have discovered an amazingly simple income system that will allow you and anyone else to earn an incredible income from home, just by using your computer and the Internet. This system is called "The BLUE CHIPS:
* No building websites * No selling products - in any way shape or form * No advertising * No data entry * No Adsense * No mailing lists * No rebate processing * No recruiting new members - this is not MLM * No uplines or downlines * No currency trading * No chain letters * No surveys or "paid to read" programs
Recent Comment "I subscribed to your BLUE CHIPS yesterday. Wow! So simple and yet brilliant. Congratulations and many thanks!" Omoye.Benin City
  I have been using this simple,1 step system for the past couple of years to generate a mind-blowing income,  and now I'm going to show you EXACTLY how. Now I have absolutely no doubt that you've heard claims like that a thousand times before and you may have even tried a few programs already? If you have tried then I can guarantee that you would have been required to do at least one of the following in order for you to make a profit: 1) Run a "pay per click" advertising campaign 2) Join affiliate programs 3) Recruit new members 4) Build websites Sure, all of the above may be effective ways of making money, but are they for everyone? Of course not! Here's why: 1) "Pay per click" advertising costs have shot through the roof. Getting a decent ranking means paying more per click - most people end up losing money instead of making it. 2) Affiliate links and programs can be very confusing and overwhelming if you've never used them before. 3) Recruiting new members can be a waste of both time and money. 4) Building websites is time consuming, costly and too complicated for most people.
Forget about all of the above. In fact, forget EVERYTHING you think you know about making money online because I'm going to show you exactly how to make thousands of dollars by using methods that are so simple, so incredibly obvious, it still amazes me that they actually do exist. For the past few months I have not had to sell one product, join one affiliate program or build a single website and I easily make $4000 per week without fail. For most days I only have to work for around 1-2 hours. Not only is the work incredibly simple, but it's even entertaining! I simply wake up whenever I feel, check my online accounts - where there is ALWAYS money waiting to be collected, perform the necessary tasks, switch off my computer and enjoy the rest of my day. No commute to work and no worries. I just relax and make piles of money, day after day and week after week. I now dread all those days I spent slaving at my old job for minimum wage!
Recent Comment "I tried this for a joke but what you showed me was amazing. I made $200 last night just by using step! Thanks for sharing this with me." David Adayemi 'Lagos,

THE PAY IS VIRTUALLY INSTANT That's right, as soon as money goes into my online accounts, I am free to spend it! I simply use a special debit card which allows me to withdraw my earnings at anytime of the day from any ATM anywhere in the world - no waiting for commission checks at the end of each month. And since I don't have to rely on making sales I can just sit back, run the system and make a steady, GUARANTEED PROFIT each and everyday.
SOME MORE FACTS: * Anyone in any country can make money with this * This does not involve promoting affiliate products * You will never have to run a pay per click advertising campaign * You will not be applying for government grants * This has nothing to do with MySpace, YouTube or anything else similar * You will never need to work long hours * This is not cash gifting * This has nothing to do with investing in Real Estate * This is not some "chain letter" scheme * This is not "rebate processing" * This is not a mail from home system * You will never have to recruit anyone * This is not a currency trading system * You will never need to build or maintain websites * This does not involve paid surveys or emails * This is not envelope stuffing
Recent Comment "I've paid more than 10 times as much for other programs that never worked. The BLUE CHIPS System was a very nice change. I've already made more from this than all the other programs combined!" Pastor Henry Adogame.Ogun State.
THIS WILL NEVER BECOME SATURATED - EVER This system is not based around selling or advertising - therefore competition means nothing. It doesn't matter if one or one million people do this - everyone can still earn as much as they want, whenever they want. Market saturation is no issue. Some income systems are simply brilliant when they come out, but once everyone starts catching on, the competition increases and your earnings decrease. This will never happen with BLUE CHIPS - guaranteed. Everyone in your street or suburb could run this at the same time and you could all make just as much money - competition means nothing! BLUE CHIPS is an incredibly simple system - so simple, I bet that even a 12 year old could run this and make money. There is absolutely nothing complicated about it - 1 step, that's all. This is not a 500 page ebook and this is not some complicated money making course. This is a short, straight-to-the-point money making system that works without fail each and every time.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS BLUE CHIPS looks very similar to other ATM card money making systems that I have previously seen. Is your program just a cheaper version? No - definitely not. The BLUE CHIPS System has absolutely nothing to do with any other ATM card system. This is not affiliated or related to any other system in any way shape or form. The BLUE CHIPS is completely unique - there is nothing else like it. Does this really involve no selling, advertising, recruiting or websites? There is absolutely NONE of the above involved. Does this involve filling out online surveys or getting paid to read email? No, there is no way that you could make $4000/week by filling out surveys or reading email. Clickbank or PayPal is not available in my country, can I still make money? Yes - There is no selling involved, therefore you don't need to create a Clickbank or PayPal account.  Does this involve adult related material or anything else unethical? No, absolutely not. Is this one of those programs where the only way to make money is by referring it to other people? No, there is absolutely no selling, advertising or referring involved - of any kind. Is there any support provided for BLUE CHIPS members? Yes, of course. Fast and reliable support is provided for all members. Can this be used worldwide? Yes, this can be used from any computer, anywhere in the world.
Recent Comment "Thanks for the tips. I'm on day 2 and I've already made $300. Good stuff!"  John Abidemi(Lagos)
  SO WHY AM I SHARING THIS WITH YOU? Well firstly, as I mentioned above - competition is no issue. It doesn't matter how many people do this along with me because it will have absolutely no effect on my personal earnings. Also, instead of saying something like "I just want to help people" or "I want to put an end to Internet scams" I'll simply be honest and say this,  Anything useful is worth selling for a price - plain and simple. People want to know how to make money and I'll gladly show them - Please this is for Nigerians only!and it is to support the Vision 2020. I show you how to make $4000 every week by doing virtually nothing and you give me a small fee for that knowledge - that's a pretty fair transaction don't you think?
OK, HOW MUCH IS THIS PACKAGE GOING TO COST?  Yes, a measly 2,500 Naira is all it takes. There are no hidden or monthly costs. You pay the small fee just once and you receive instant access to the system that earns me $4000/week, it's that simpleI could easily be like everyone else and charge 8,000 Naira or more for it but what's the point? I make the REAL money by actually using this system - not selling it. You will not find a system like this anywhere else online. This is not one of those programs that hundreds of people are selling on success digest extra magazine or any others news paper,magazines, etc, this is 100% original content!
THIS WILL MAKE YOU MONEY BLUE CHIPS is a foolproof system that will make you money - no matter your previous level of experience.Due to high popular demands from Nigerians the package is now 2,500 naira only,pay to account no-4244446271590,Name-Edison Ehimen,Bank-GT Bank,please Note this is use to reach out for more helping hands for Quick delivery,thanks for your understanding,for those who got the package free earlier,if you have been blessed,please share your blessings and testimonies to others,the package is not for secret people,and for those who still assumed that package is a scam,i laugh at them because they have not seen my package and they have been left behind,i hate scammers with a passion.Let us think positively and act responsibly to make Nigeria a great Nation,please call and send your payment details,and your e-mail to this no-08039568803 for your package,thanks and God bless you.

DaPhoenix:
When a girl refuses to give in to your advances, she's a fronting, unromantic, closeted lesbian and when she, for Heaven know why, does give in to your advances, she is a greedy, immoral, [insert other degrading words here], cheap slut.

Seems like you lot suffer more crises than just mid-life crisis.

[quote author=~Lady~ link=topic=227582.msg3431945#msg3431945 date=1233876125]Can you wholeheartedly decide who will go to heaven and who won't? Because when Larry asked him that question that is what Larry was initially saying.
So are you or Joel the determiners of who will go to hell or heaven?[/quote]it serves me no need starting an argument or long explanation with you. all i have to say is that it is very surprising that someone who calls himself a pastor of Christ, cannot wholeheartedly state that Jesus is the only way to heaven, which is clearly stated throughout the bible. nobody determines who go to heaven, but at least tell it as it is written in the bible. Larry gave him a chance to clarify his message but he went on rumbling around the question, which i found very unusual of  any pastor and a christian pastor for that. and even when a listener called in to the show to ask him to clarify his statement he couldn't. it was after the interview that his church members and other followers was furious with his answers that he offered them this statement (below). again like i said, people should only listen to him only when they are depressed and want someone to give them earthly motivation.

here is his apology after the show

"Dear Friend,

Many of you have called, written or e-mailed regarding my recent appearance on Larry King Live.  I appreciate your comments and value your words of correction and encouragement.

It was never my desire or intention to leave any doubt as to what I believe and Whom I serve.  I believe with all my heart that it is only through Christ that we have hope in eternal life.  I regret and sincerely apologize that I was unclear on the very thing in which I have dedicated my life.

Jesus declared in John 14; I am the way, the truth and the life.  No one comes to the Father but by me.   I believe that Jesus Christ alone is the only way to salvation.  However, it wasn’t until I had the opportunity to review the transcript of the interview that I realize I had not clearly stated that having a personal relationship with Jesus is the only way to heaven. It’s about the individual’s choice to follow Him.

God has given me a platform to present the Gospel to a very diverse audience.  In my desire not to alienate the people that Jesus came to save, I did not clearly communicate the convictions that I hold so precious.

I will use this as a learning experience and believe that God will ultimately use it for my good and His glory. I am comforted by the fact that He sees my heart and knows my intentions.  I am so thankful that I have friends, like you, who are willing to share their concerns with me.

Thank you again to those who have written. I hope that you accept my deepest apology and see it in your heart to extend to me grace and forgiveness.

As always, I covet your prayers and I am believing for God’s best in your life".




then again i wonder why it would take his members to write in to him, for him to admit that Jesus is the only to heaven.

the bible said it all, Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Matthew 7:15

davidylan:
The bible is very plain - He that believeth not is CONDEMNED ALREADY.

Go and argue with that verse and leave me in peace.

thank you Jare .
