1 Corinthians 9-11

[wolfpurplemoon]

Paul talks about whether he and the other preachers deserve a reward for leading the people to their salvation.

Paul warns his followers to avoid idol worship and states that pagan's are sacrificing to demons, and you shouldn't do that because then you may provoke God to his famous jealousy.

So yesterday I was reading that married men and women have equal rights to each other's bodies, but now Paul says that Christ is the head of every man and man is the head of a woman. And that a man should always worship with his head uncovered as he is the image and gory of God, but if a woman worships with her head uncovered then she might as well shave all her hair off. Also it is a disgrace to a man for him to have long hair but long hair is a woman's glory, thanks for the fashion tips Paul.

He's a guy who said pretty much what you did, that it is better to believe in God because if you don't there's a big penalty (hell), it's a wager because you're trying to beat the odds. Christian's love to bring it out in debates, but wouldn't your God know if you were only believing 'just in case'?

well with believing being a choice then wouldnt you just chose to believe insted of questioning? So then its not so much a wager as it is you made your decicion on what you were going to do? Or do you look at your choice as not so much a choice? And he says that the only way to heaven is threw Jesus so you already are told by him that if you chose not to belive then you go to hell and that your just banking on that right? dose that make sence?

No it doesn't make sense because there is no afterlife so we don't need saving so in the end it doesn't matter what Jesus promised.
