    Is being a good person enough to give you eternal life? Is God pleased that you are a good person?

    Take this quiz and find out!

    Glad you enjoyed it.

    What interested me was when I posted it up on a non christian board that has a spirituality type section, My PM box began to light up with hate mail. This encouraged me alot, if it provokes that type of reaction, then it proves that the message of it hits home in exactly the right way.

    One fellow then posted a link about how Jesus being the Only way to heaven is not modern thinking any more. Now that is quite ok by everyone on the board. Yet to a Christian that is offensive. Yet I dont bother with being offended, what it shows me is that we are preaching the right thing that Jesus the resurrected Christ is the one true way to heaven.

    It really has lifted my heart in some ways even though it was meant as animosity. People hate us for whose Name we bear on our hearts. And if this presentation gets the word out then I will link it to everwhere that I can think of!

    You are right. When sharing the word of God, there will be challenges! Love those who would challenge you. Pray for them with all your heart. We will offend those whose religions are questioned.
    So are you from Queensland area? I have a friend who attends Uni there, somewhere.

    That is an excellent presentation. I'm going to explore the site and use that presentation with some of my non christian friends.

    I wish I lived in Queensland, that is where Steve Irwin has his "Australia Zoo". I am from Adelaide which is in the state of South Australia. It is where the Pontiac GTO is made! [​IMG]

    NO way! I had no idea that GTO's came from Aussie land! How cool! My colleague and friend is in social work courses in Australia and was so excited when she was given a pass to visit the Aboriginal tribes people there. I believe she would like to have stayed with them in ministry. Do you go to Queensland much? Is Adelaide not one of the dryer and cooler areas?

    Actually I have never been to Queensland! Yet I will be going there this year. Australia is one of few countries in the word that is divided into states under a federal government.

    Adelaide is a place that has cool winters, yet very hot summers, Queensland has humid heat wheras South Australia has dry heat.

    Adelaide sounds like Texas! I hope you enjoy your journey.
