"Sex" is only not a sin if a married man and woman are doing sex. Most Catholics never heard something about. Take me as an example: Never heard something about.
But let me say also: To love someone is always allowed including all forms of tenderness. We are not only spiritual beings. We need our bodies - and if the prophecies I heard are right, then we will arise one day with our souls in a new created form of body made of pure fire.
I'm very happy for you. You sound content.
I, on the other hand, am never content.
When you come to Jesus Christ and are born again according to Romans 10:9,10 and leave the Roman Catholic Institution you shall find contentment and the peace that passes all understanding. That has been the testimony of all ex-Catholics who have found salvation in Jesus Christ alone - including myself!
Jeremiah –
Since you are so “content” I am sure you can handle anyone’s criticisms.
But based on your own words I find you to be the most misguided and judgmental of anyone who calls themselves a Christian. You pride yourself in the verses you can quote but you also have no answer for another 50 verses that call you out and lay waste to your definitive positions. Your whole approach is in error and quite harmful. IMO
Strictly speaking, all Christians (and derivitives like Mormons) are commiting the more serious of sins - worshipping any but God. If you think the man Jesus is God, you're basicly commiting the no. 1 most serious sin.
in theory....all mankind are the sons/daughters of god. Those who believe in god would sit next to jesus in heaven.
in science....all life was created through the spark, god particle
in philosophy...most cultures have had their own version of the golden rule. We are all taught to live good lives and care about others. That is the basis of our religions as well.
If there is a godhead, I can't imagine that only those of a particular faith are blessed. It does not matter how you bend the knee if you are a good person. In the final days of apocalyptic beliefs say all souls will be forgiven.
Jesus was supposed to have come and died to show people that god forgives the sins of man.
