So, He was killed and then nailed to a cross?  Kinda useless there, eh?

Cute. Of course, in school they taught us more along the lines of this, than

In the beginning, there was God; and God made man to have a relationship
with Him, and they were to live forever together. Because God loved man,
He gave him a free will.....

       man


But man chose to disobey God and to do things his own way, because of
this, man was cast away from God, and SIN (disobedience to God) became
a barrier that prevented man from coming close to the Holy God.  No
longer could man enjoy the close and joyful relationship he once had
with God.

source of all life, man's way was leading him to eternal death.

Because men need God, they try in many different ways to restore their
relationship with God. They try other religions, human relationships, or
doing good works.  None of man's efforts can get to God - we are still
separated from Him by our sin.

Death


Because God loves us so much He was not willing to see us die, even
though
we deserve it.  So God did the most amazing miracle, something only God
could have thought of.  He sent His one and only Son Jesus Christ to
become
a man, like us.

Jesus, who had no sin, died on a cross for our sins. He has made the way
for us to return to God. On the third day after He was buried, He rose
from the dead, and has returned to Heaven and is now Lord over
everything
that exists. He commands now that all men turn away from our sin and 
learn to obey Him completely. If we give our life to Him, we will have
eternal life.

There was a time in my life (marked by X) where I had to decide -
whether
to continue living life my way (toward death), or accept God's gift and
have
eternal life with Him.  I had to stop pretending that I didn't need God;
I had to accept the truth and submit to God, who is greater than I. "God
resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."  (1 Peter chapter 5
verse 5)

I decided to make Jesus my Lord and Saviour, and Jesus removed my sin
and provided me the way to get back to God.

This is summarised by these words of the Bible : John chapter 3
verse 16 :
          "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son,
        That whoever believes in Him, will not perish but have eternal
life."


Is there any reason for you not to accept for yourself what God has
done???

This may be a little off ascii-art, but oh well.  Here's the way I see it.
A long time ago, people wrote down the Bible, right?  Well, I imagine they
didn't understand alot of it, so they just wrote it in a way that made sense
to them.  For example, they said that God created everything in 6 days.  No
one really specified how long a day was back then.  Maybe God created the
Big Bang and used evolution to create us.  I think we can't really take the
Bible word for word, because we are different than the people who wrote it.
Also, have you ever read Revelation?  That's pretty weird, and I imagine
that the author just wrote down things in a way that made the best sense to
him.  If you witnessed something that was totally beyond all comprehension,
you would probably describe it by relating it to things that you know about
today.

Nice story!, but kinda off-topic.  If you add more pictures.....


If we want to argue religion, we should move to alt.religion.babbleing,
but this is for ascii art.


Just because I think your story is kinda right, it doesn't make it
on-topic.  Now I've been here long enough to know that VK and some
others will aggree with me on the off-topic bit, so add more pictures!



Now, let's remember what came out of that 'big bang' stated above:


                    ()
    ,S.            (__)              __ 
    XXX           (____)           (____)      (X)
                                              (XXX)
      ,xHXXX      _          (XxXXXX)        (XXXXX)
     XXXX;"      |_|
          ,XX     T       ,X.
         ,XI'            ,XXX.
         XX'             XXXXX

What are you talking about? 

First : this was an 'amusing' answer to an offensive off-topic 
post, no matter if the bible or science is actually telling
some truth. Second : There were pictures and I liked them, 
found them funny in fact. Third : Why do you -
Mr. 'Whatdda ya mean' - complain about 'not enough pictures' ? ;)
What's 'enough' anyway? There won't be too many or even enough
pictures in any post. Give me moooooooore!! :)

Yep. Veronica likes to be the off-topic police sometimes
too but that doesn't mean that she stays on-topic all the 
time. ;) Right?

At least Krogg's story-replies are funnier than these
useless 'go-away' one-liners. From my point of view he 
should go on with it if he likes. Some spice in our Ascii
soup. (Now we're all waiting for me to include an Ascii soup,
but I won't. No, no, no.)

Colin, this is not bad.  As for the atheistic slant to this thread, I will hesitate to comment; that is simple naivete'.  But this
is not too bad of a cartoon.

I just got a response from RemarQ, which runs another archive-type usenet webpage.
RemarQ works a LOT faster than Dejanoose, and it usually picks up new posts, faster
than any other news server around.

Anyway, I've been informed that sometime this fall, they will add a new feature to
their site, allowing folks to view messages in PLAIN TEXT, with NO html formatting.


Sorry I can't post the URL to RemarQ, but I can't post a URL through my ISP's news
server, for some ridiculous reason. However, if you would like to thank RemarQ for
responding to suggestions to add a plain text option, and it might be a good idea
to do so, to encourage them not to change their minds, or forget about it, you can
write Bill Onderdonk at RemarQ, here:

                     bil...@remarq.com

I also updated my silly webpage, but since I can't post that URL either, you'll
just have to find it, if you care to look at it, which I don't, because I've
already seen it.

Be good..... JRO
