If James Bond decided to receive Christ, does he have to give up killing people and sleeping with women?

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.

No the bible says thou shalt not kill..who cares about the verse that says to stone them to death. Seams to me even God dosnet know what he wants\n\nLeviticus\n20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.\n\nlike i said even he can't make up his mind on what he wants us to do.

Hello Hugo.. :)\n\nNo..Jesus told us we are to Love our enemies..we are not to repay evil for evil..\n\nIf this was so, then Paul (Saul) would have been killed and not forgiven..for he advocated the killing of hundreds of Christians, before Christ appeared unto him..\n\n\nIn Jesus Most Precious Name..\nWith Love..In Christ.. :)

This is a question that is very hard to answer and the answer that i am about to give is only speculation or a calculated guess and can be wrong. Firstly, i would presume that you are a Christian. \n\nIn order to make a guess who the anti- Christ or the nationality of him, we need to understand, how far would his rule goes? Would he rule the world or only the major parts. Lets presume he is going to rule the world for the 7 years. Then the people of this world has to choose him and believe that he is capable. Some might even go on to say he is the messiah. In order for that to happen, the anti-christ must appease 4 major groups of people.\nThey are the jews, the muslims, the christians and the rest of the world. This is an almost impossible task but is it possible?\n\n1) He must appease the jews, if he is going to be accepted by the jews. In the later part of the anti-christ ministry , we find that jews discover that thy were duped and fled to the mountains but at its earlier stage, the jews or israelites have to accept him and therefore he can have full access into the temple(which later part would play a significant role). However the jews will only accept him if he is also born a jew because the messiah has to be an isrealite. So He has to be an Isrealite.\n\n2) But the majority of the middle east are muslims. And if the muslims are going to accept him and listen to him, he has to be muslim. If he is going to bring peace in the middle east and also somewhat be a messiah. To the muslims, he has to be a muslim\n\n3) To the rest of he world, If he can bring peace and probably win the nobel peace prize, he would probably be worthy to sit in that position.\n\n4)Now the christians reads a lot and probably are prepared for all sorts of scenerios. However the bible did say that if possible, he will decieve even the elect. So how to decieve the christians? when does a Christian be lieve  that the person is the messiah. He has to do miracles, signs and wonders. Prominent ministries has to promote him. That is what is happening today around the world. doesnt matter if they speak wrong doctrine aslong as prophets afirm and they can perform signs and wonders. Justifying themselves by saying modern day prophets dun need to get all their prophecies a 100 percent correct.\n\nSo i put forth to you\n\nTo be a jew, the mother has to be a jew. So maybe the mother of the antichrist is jew married to a father who is muslim promoted  by prominent Christian ministries and modern day prohets(a trusted prophet that went astray in his later ministries and became a false prophet) as the messiah and able to do false sins and wonders.He would be smart able to come up with a peace proposal and give peace and thereby acknowlege by the rest of the world as their leader.

Yeah, peaceful religion, as long as you join it!  Why would he say it?  Well, the antichrist has to basically take over the world, by force, the antichrist will behead christians, sound familiar?  Know of any other group in the world who has a thing for cutting off heads?  Mohammed was just clearing to way for the AC, islam.

A little clarification regarding snakes and poisons... \n\nTo willfully do such things is testing God. However, if you look in Acts when Paul was bitten by the incredibly venemous viper, he did not die. In fact, the people of Malta wanted to worship him as a god. Paul set them straight--it was just a sign that what he was saying is true.\nWhat this scripture is saying is that when you are working for Him, you are invincible until it is time for you to come home. The movie End of the Spear will show you how God can use one brother's death to save an entire people. Other times, like Paul, saving from death can do wonders for faith. So be careful with such verses and don't go drinking Draino to prove your saved. You might see God quicker than you anticipate.

He wouldn't . . . but what I don't understand is why people who do believe in Christ . . . invalidate his sacrifice by saying that Jesus is God.\n\nBy doing that . . . people who believe . . . can not be saved.  Because it would not a fulfilled the law . . . to make it possible for believers to be redeemed.

I believe that he would.  Jesus was a definite  liberal of his time.  In my opinion, the introduction of the words sin, hell, and satan did not come from the man, Jesus.

Depends on power you give to them or of power you believe in them. Also, it depends of the way you read and interpret the Bible or Koran. But speaking of today's conflicts, seems that these are not about Jesus or Mohamed, but about people who decided to get involved in it and refuse to resolve it in a political way. And, I agree with reichman2007: both care about men. But who cares about women?

Nope.  When you decide to take a life you give up any human rights.  Read the Book of Instructions.  It's one of the Ten Basic Rules for living.\n\nRape...just cut off the parts that performed the task and throw him in a cell with Bubba who hasn't seen a female in years.

NOT by will power.  If you are in a eral relationship with Christ, the Holy Spirit will convict you to be humble, and then you decide

i would want to, b/c of the fact that it is a noble gesture as Jesus had sacraficed his life for us...but if i were to be honest i prob. wouldn't do that. in my heart i would want to say yes i would, but we all have a will to live. if you are a truly loving and noble person you would most likely sacrafice yourself, but unfortunately not many are that willing to risk their life (unless of course the person they're trying to save is part of their family).

Priory of Sion and Da Vinci notwithstanding, of course it is possible. Remember that there are many years in the life of Jesus not accounted for in the Bible. Anyone who thinks that he did not have relations during this time period is being a little naive. I'm not saying that there is a conspiracy, just that we need to look at him as a man. Now...what would Jesus do?

Probably. But somebody is lying about Mr Haggard who is incharge of the NAE, calling him a homosexual. Watch this story in the news. \nThese I believe are the last days !!!!\n\n2 Timothy read the following.\n\nChapter 3\n1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.\n\n2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,\n\n3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, FALSE ACCUSERS, incontinent, fierce, DESPISERS OF THOSE THAT ARE GOOD, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;\n\n5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.\n\n6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,\n\n7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.\n\n8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.\n\n9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was.\n\n13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.\n\nTHERE IS HOPE FOR EVERYONE.\n\n"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" Romans 3:23 \n\n"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23 \n\n"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8 \n\n"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16 \n\n"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Romans 10:9-10

Better take him seriously.  He probably plans to be the anti-christ.in his next incarnation.

you mean accept Jesus Christ as their savior and TRULY repent from their perverted ways, yes?\n\nThen I WOULD forgive them.\nI'm not saying right away.. but I'll try as hard as I can to let go. \n\nJesus said, "If you cannot forgive people that have wronged you, then how you expect God to forgive your sin?"\n\nYou see, if we view everything from our own eyes, it is very hard to do the will of Christ.\nWe feel that we are better than the murderer or rapist.\nbut, the fact is we are not.\nSin is equal in the eye of God...\n\nWhen we lie, cheat, steal, commit an adultery, we are all accounted as sinner in front of God.\n\nIf you expect to be forgiven by God of ALL your sin, then you should be able to forgive those so called murderer and rapist.\n\nSaying that you won't forgive them is basically repeating the role of Pharisee in the bible.\n\nThe so called "holy" men refused to pardon a tax collector, a whore, and so on.\n\nDo you know God gave christ to us so that we can follow His ways? Do you realize that Christ forgave a criminal on the day of His death?\n\nIn human ways, I, too cannot forgive murderers and Rapists.\nBut, I have the Holy spirit in me that enable me to do so.\n\n\nPlease be warned though "Forgiveness" is thru grace (as we received forgiveness from the Lord thru His mercy).\n\n"Trust," however, is something that we need to earn.\nSo, after I forgive those, they need to earn my trust be4 I will allow them to be near me and my family.

Simple answer. Lo.\n\nOK, reasons why not.\nThe beast is not human. The antichrist is the one who gets the wound to the head. He will be DEAD and then rise up and regain power. It will be a pseudo miracle. Putting him in a coma does not count. He will make a peace agreement and allow Israel to rebuild their temple. Sharon is no where NEAR that kind of power or trust.\n\nMatt,\nSorry bro. It's actually Roy Horn of "Siegfried & Roy". All the people love him. He has no love for women. He was wounded in the head, yet lived. He is called the little "horn". There is three, and one is a beast. (OK, now, don't go nuts... I'm KIDDING!)
