If yes, how come he became 007 again? \nCan he repent and receive Christ but still killing people in the line of duty?\nCan he repent and receive Christ but still sleeping with women for the sake of her majesty the queen?

You know of course that James Bond is not a real person.If a person like James Bond killed people in the service of his country or some other line of duty, that is not considered murder.  I guess the same could be said for sleeping with the women, but I am not sure of that because I am sure he takes great pleasure from it.

I'd smile and say hello. Not because I agree with the horrible things he did, but because he was human. If he truly repented and was saved, and he truly went to heaven, that is a wonderful thing. It's wonderful if anyone does. And if God is able to forgive him, imagine how loving God must be!

Yes he did, and the result was a bit of a backlash by British citizens who do not like their political leaders to rationalize actions or to try to avoid being held accountable for them by citing scripture or passing the buck to the Almighty.\n\nI only wish my fellow Americans were half as wary of politicians who invoke the name of God to veil or excuse their own actions.\n\nSee editorial below.

Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the world. And, that by killing an infidel, which is a command to all Muslims, they are assured of a place in heaven. According to the Quoran, An infidel is a Non-Believer. So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of their faith so they can go to Heaven. Is that correct? I have a real problem trying to imagine Pope Benedict commanding all Catholics to kill those of other faiths, or leaders of Protestant, Baptist, etc. to do the same in order to go to Heaven! I also have a problem with being a friend to a Muslim when they and their fellow Believers are telling their followers to kill me. Let me ask you a question. Would you rather have Allah who tells you to kill me in order to go to Heaven or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to Heaven and He wants you to be with me?"\n\nJust curious.

Those who are in Christ love as Christ loves! Who would Jesus bomb? What kingdom would Jesus support with his actions: the kingdom of darkness or the Kingdom of God? There is no excuse nor justification for ANY action EVER that goes against goodness and against God. And these guys are choosing MONEY and WORLDLY POWER over Christ and then lying and saying they are in Christ!!\n\nPeople support Bush because they are still attached to the Beast; but just like Bush they can't even see where the cord from the Beast plugs right into them. They wear its mark, not the mark of the Lamb: which is PROVEN in those who love as Christ loves!! With Agape!\n\nAgape for everyone, everywhere -- In Christ\n\nPeople choose patriotism at the expense of righteousness! That is the work of the Beast in action right there.

ok, i hate to tell you this, but the Bible clearly states there is no forgiveness or repentance after death. Zarqawi hated christians, and all that we stood for. at this point, theres not a lot we can do.

Trust me. He is not a wimp. He is the False Prophet of the Beast.\n He's trying to be a "peace-maker", and untie all religions under the control of the Vatican.\n It's all a facade. One day soon he'll show his true motives.\n Remember, the Vatican is a political-relgious entity. It is not Christianity. It's the tool of the devil to unite an army against Jerusalem. You will see it come to pass soon. You will also see Russia drop a nuke on Rome. Mark my words, it will happen.\n To know why, click here...\nhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/bibletruths_forbelievers/

Why don't you Pray and meditate on that question and see if the Lord will reveal the truth to you.  The Book was written and categorized as Fiction.  The first line in the book says, "This is a book of Fiction"\n\nI am overjoyed for the fact that this book/movie has sparked such a great interest in my savior.  Can you imagine how many have picked up a Bible to read more about the Christ, that would have never touched it otherwise? Until this Movie came out, only about 10% of the population knew who Mary Magdalene was? I saw a blip on CNN News the other day that People are taking Bibles right and left out of hotel rooms since the release of the Movie.  I truly think that the Authors intention when writing this book was to promote Christianity.

I think you're right. The reason He's waiting is so that more people have an opportunity to come to repentance.\nDid you know that there are more people alive today than have died in all the time between Jesus and the year 2000?\nIn the year 100 AD, the (worldwide) ratio of Christians to non-Christians was about 1:300\nToday, that ratio is about 1:7

intelligence isnt faith.\n\nyep he was a sinner.

Actually, the real question is, why would he have to rest on the 7th day?\nWhy would he have to communicate via a burning bush.\nWhy would he have to kill over and over (floods, plagues)\nWhy would he be upset at us for gaining knowledge of good and evil?\nWhy would he want us to be mindless sheep?\n\nThese are not things that, by definition, any god would ever have to do.

I looked at your links, and I went to the home page of the first and looked at more of the articles. I'm sorry, but it did not change my mind. Much of what he said made good sense, and in coming to his conclusions, I think he felt what we refer to as "red flags" in his religion that caused him to doubt its logic. But, I find red flags in the fact that like many, including Christians, his understanding of Christianity seems to be in parts of the the concept rather than the whole. \n\nCase in point... The "contradiction" he mentions as a very serious one: salvation by faith vs. works/law\n\nQuoted are:\nJohn 5:24 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life. \n\nJohn 6:47 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal life. \n\nJohn 6:28-29Therefore they said to Him, "What shall we do, so that we may work the works of God?"  Jesus answered and said to them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent." \n\nversus\n\nMatt 19:16-21  16 And someone came to Him and said, "Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may obtain eternal life?" 17 And He said to him, "Why are you asking Me about what is good? There is only One who is good; but if you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments." 18 Then he said to Him, "Which ones?" And Jesus said, " YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT MURDER; YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY; YOU SHALL NOT STEAL; YOU SHALL NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS; 19 HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER; and YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF." 20 The young man said to Him, "All these things I have kept; what am I still lacking?" 21 Jesus said to him, "If you wish to be complete, go and sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me." \n\n\nFor my answer to this supposed contradiction, please see the link where I have already answered the same question.\n\nP.S. - I do agree with you that the asker should have been able to look at the info provided and form his own opinion rather than immediately dismissing it, apparently w/o reading it. I would, however, be careful in claiming evidence as proof - even the writer of the articles in the first link admits he cannot disprove God.

'fly your fla...' was almost right, the Koran does say that Jesus was only a Prophet, and not the Son of God, it also says that Mohammad was a Prophet, not that Mohammed was God!\nApart from that I agree it is a load of cr**!\nAs to your question, if Jesus is "still alive" why does he need to return, where has he been if he is still alive?\nWho took his place on the cross? I really don't know and it's not as if Crucifixion was anything unusual in those times, hundreds of people (not only followers of Christ) were crucified daily, for all sorts of crimes, people were crucified and set alight to illuminate the Roman arenas at night, it was really no big deal. (unless you were the one being lit up!!  \nI can understand your interest, it's all a great story, but don't get carried away, it is actually only a story!!

He has killed two men about two months prior. He grew out two dreads in his beard to remind him... one for each man. Their deaths were on his conscience. \n\nBut when he confessed his sin, the guilt was then released. It was more of a Catholic confession / forgiveness analogy. So he could remove the reminder because he was freed from the guilt after confession.\n\nDoes this make sense?

I've read his post 3 times and can't see any mention of his religion. \nDo you think he doesn't know the laws in his country? Why do people feel compelled to point it out?\nIf he was Irish, would you all be saying "Catholics don't allow homosexuality"?\nLeave you preaching where it belongs, and that's not here!!!!

a person who did what he did.... how can he ever become a real christian? this would take a miracle first, and then, perhaps, everything else would be possible, including realizing the evil he did... and luckily, God forgives more than humans...

NO, LEAVE THE MOVIE ALONE!\n\nIt's 007, just leave it at that. His finese and style overshadows what was done in the past. It is what it is.
