Christians. Why does the Bible confuse the Unbeliever?

"F.O.G.....On the night I became a Christian I was reading a book written by other Christians and at the time it was not helping. I felt God nudging me to open a little bible which was given to me 10 years before by a Christian. I had it in my bedside drawer for 10 years. I opened it and the words from God made all the differance. That night my new life started."
AMEN brother!
I myself had some misguided opinions concerning God until a friend challenged me and I decided to actually read the gospels for myself. My intention was to read them and then go back to my friend and tell him how wrong he was. But after reading through Matthew, then Mark, then Luke, I hit John and the Holy Spirit hit me!
I called up my friend and thanked him for his witnessing to me and we prayed together and cried together as the H.S. began His work of washing me clean!
I have been told many times, and by christians, to stop the bible quoting and just "show" them the love of Jesus. But God's word is clear, the Word must be heard. It is God's word that is quick and penetrating. Those who oppose God hate to hear it and some Christians are misguided about not preaching it.
Faith cometh by HEARING. The SHOWING comes from truly believing.
God Bless!

If the bible is not a literal missive then what does Paul mean by saying this....
2Ti 3:16 All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
2Ti 3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

Let's look at some examples.
Jhn 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Jhn 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Jhn 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.
Is this a literal missive? If not, then explain.

Greetings Sam,
If you have given your life to Jesus Christ (born again) you will have nothing to fear. And I certainly would not fear any unproven self proclaiming prophets.

Statements like this is what made the Pharisees so angry with Jesus. When you read this statement the first thing that pops into your mind is this person is equating themselves with God.
"Jhn 10:32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
Jhn 10:33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God."
The Jews clearly understood that the things Jesus was saying were equating Himself with God.

What is the purpose/goal in KARMA?

(Colleen) "I never said, a last lifetime meant perfection. One does not have to be completely perfect to remain in heaven. Perfection can be achieved there. Some karma does not need a lifetime to pay for. "
I gathered from your prior comments that one must pay for bad karma through reincarnation and cannot reach heaven until ALL debt is paid.
Here is your quote....
(Colleen) " Once all the accumulated karma is paid off Soul can reach Self-realization in it's present life, thus breaking the cycle of reincarnation.”

I have learned here that the goal/purpose of KARMA is heaven. The process is reincarnation until the person reaches a perfect life with no bad karma. Then and only then may they stop the reincarnation process and rest in heaven.
Does anyone know of anyone who is presently living that perfect life and by doing so are on their last life here on earth? Anyone?

"Hording. Having more of something than you actually need and could ever use on your own. "
How do we know where the bad karma line is so that we may avoid it?
I have many things I do not need. Cell phones, DVD's, TV's, CD's, way too many dishes, pots and pans. And clothes!!! And shoes!!! How many clothes and shoes do you have that you do not need?
This karma thing really sounds hopeless!

Colleen had said, "Bad karma is also created through attachment to any of the five passions: anger, greed, lust, undue attachment to the physical world (the over collecting of material things) and vanity."
My question is, what is "over collecting"?
The belief in karma seems to be that one who understands karma would avoid all things associated with bad karma. Yet I see those who say they believe in this system stacking up the bad karma almost daily as though they don't believe what they preach.
Seeing how just one bad karma day must be paid for in another life no matter how much good karma is done seems pretty hopeless to me.
Maybe since Colleen hates christian preachers so much in this life she might have to be one in her next!
