Biblically speaking, you cant sell your soul, because it does not belong to you, it is given to you, and taken away. You are merely borrowing it.


Tell that to the Mormons!

Priests are not messengers sent by God, and nowhere in the bible does it say that you should remain celibate, in fact it says that it is better to marry, than it is to burn. Being a "celibate" priest goes against human nature, and biblical doctrine. It says in the bible for mankind to be fruitful and become many, how can this occur when you are living your life holed up in a room obsessing over "spirituality", or worse, altar boys!


FYI

New American Standard Bible (©1995)
"For the lips of a priest should preserve knowledge, and men should seek instruction from his mouth; for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.

GOD'S WORD® Translation (©1995)
"A priest's lips should preserve knowledge. Then, because he is the messenger for the LORD of Armies, people will seek instruction from his mouth.

King James Bible
For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.


To be frank, I'm not a Christian. but i do respect it as a religion. The word 'priest' need not be confined to a religion, but to the understanding. priests need not won a election or a campaign. Moderation!!! to me Bible or anything in equivalent to, is a set of principles which concerned one has to always follow in his life, the more strict you follow you may came across some questions at that time, you may clarify yours in church/religious gathering, you will be clarified by some one who practices it for life and totally devoted himself to it and he might be called as priest, messenger/herald/ambassador. For ex: St.Thomas.

Spiritual things are beliefs and i don't think one can ask for proof. you may follow it or not that holds to you and ...you alone and no one can have a influence over it..

Again! 'a priest can marry or not', this is a very controversial question and i would like to refrain from participating in that. Even i don't know if Lord Jesus had married some one or not, may be or may not be.

I have a opinion (its a opinion and not binding) in general if a person has a family then she/he is always forced, I have read in some books that people in their initial stage of life, married to some one and later they jump to spiritual life. but they renounce their family afterwards. wife/husband/kids becomes a commoner. She/he can never show any special considerations towards them. In the current world if some one can have a heart capable of living with such mind control, may be they are eligible to be considered. Ex: Buddha & Vishwa mithrar

hi jorge, (Recruitment) are u in to a professional activity or meant for any religious work. If former case, its your personal. If latter case, it doesn't sound to be normal, i can't figure out what do you mean by "my eye on" and "few lucky ....."

Selling something like soul, oh! really are.....? soul is something like, when you have authority you can do it, not you can always do it. after you, some one takes the clothing. soul is something which goes to heaven or comes back to earth to a another human being which we can say your rebirth, this happens when you commit lot of sins as against to benign. its always a form of god comes to earth to convey something.

hey guys! this is more in to a religious session which i fear that one point people will point at others, this should not happen. we are here for a discussion and not for any chair. remove this religious part at once. i dont think i'm eligible to talk about this.

Yet you chose to discuss it in great illogical length, thus confusing everyone further. FYI Catholics and Orthodox have priests, the rest of Christendom does not. But thank you for pointing out a prime example of false doctrine.

Hi jorge, pls read the message again thoroughly, I already mentioned that priest is not pertaining to a particular religion. Instead of clamanting your views, read it again, keep your prejudice away for sometime atleast untill you read it clearly and understand it. still if you feel not clear come back. when you make statement, you must substantiate yourself instead of expecting others to accept you blatantly.

Hi surfguy, please let me know where you got confused, please read it again. I hope you will be clear.

Well it was hard to follow what you wrote...and you went off on too many different tangents...and then you negated everything by saying this:

Also it is a toic where your beliefs are or will be different from others. Personally...we all are the messenger from God...are Catholic Priests who molest little boys...are they messengers? I think not. Religion is man made...and neither you nor I make the difference as to whether he exists or not. Fact is if we were never ever here...he still would ...for we do not matter. He controls us and we do not control him.

I am clear, it is you who is not clear! You are infact contradicting yourself right now, and attacking me for responding to something that you typed in an attempt to some how prove me wrong, which you failed to do. What prejudice are you speaking of? I do not feel compelled to make up lies or ramble on and on, baffling everyone in order to appear intelligent (and failing miserably), the way you do. I wonder if you even comprehend english? A couple of posts ago I realized that what another poster had typed, was irrelevant to the thread, I did not know that, and I apologized. You however have chosen to argue on a topic that you werent talking about to begin with, and are now trying to insult me on said topic. This makes no sense!

I agree with your views surfguy! when you say priest, they are there in many religions and in different parts of the world. but the person whom you are referring to is simply holding a post not truly by profession, he can be
ignored. he in the name of god is committing crime.

Hi jorge, I'm sorry if my verbose appears as a stinger to you. I'm explaining to your post because i feel till now both are responsible. we are here for information xchange not for worthless babbling. I have nothing to hide. i'm not here to prove you and others wrong, what am i going to get out of this. NOTHING! except your quarrel. so i would like to stop at this point. I'm not acting smart. I never said explicitly that you lied, rambled and baffled others. remove your complex out of you.
hey! relax, be cool!!!! have a cool drink with sugar. come back..

It is as I suspected, you do not understand english. You are fighting with yourself.
