  • take moses for example, he killed a man but did he ever turn himself in?

  • Christian karma

  • this kicks ya right where you dont wanna be kicked...

  • @RagingInverno . Oh yeah, btw we were all catholics at on point in time!

  • @RagingInverno . You think I would have a list of names available? com on now let's be realistic. I would say that you should by "faith" trust that I'm right!

  • @99minerkc care to name a few? You're likely referring to Catholics.

  • Before I became a Christian, I used to lie to my math teacher about doing my homework assignments.

    But when I became a Christian, I called my teacher and told him I lied and apologized, and it all worked out between me and him, and the Lord.

    Amen.

  • i did all sorts of drugs and plenty of illegal things before i was a christian....do i go back and turn myself in for all of it? of course not. i think it has to do with personal revelation. has God put it on your heart to turn yourself in for something. is it something u did, or is it a case thats still open? if its not a case.....just something u know u did, that may be different. or if it is severe and God has put it on your heart to turn yourself in. like a murder. case by case

  • You wouldn't happen to have any biblical references you wouldn't mind providing for this would you?

  • Depends on the crime! If it's smoking marijuana for pain relief for a nerve disease-NO-you shouldn't turn yourself in! If you murdered an innocent person, well, there could be a case not to turn yourself in given the GREAT number of CHRISTIANS who have murdered and still murder in the name of God! I say be better than that though!
