Jesus Christ - all things are possible for one who believes.

My daughter has very religious cousins who took her to kids Bible study for a while. My daughter excitedly started saying "All things are possible for one who beliefs".

"Oh really! I said. So you can pick up that building on your own and move it to the other side of the street? Let's see it!" So she changed it to "Everything, within reason, is possible for one who believes."

That made it better, I thought, but it kind of defeated the purpose of that quote.

For those who follow the words of the Bible, faith can move mountains.
1st Corinthians, chapter 13, verse 2 "...and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing." - King James Version .
Moving a building would be a breeze.


Some versions of the Bible are written as "move mountains" rather than " remove" and in many versions, the word "charity" has been replaced by " love"


Bottom line, if a person has a belief and isn't forcing it on me or hurting anybody, let them enjoy.

No, the Lord Jesus means what He said. It's just not commonly done.

Here's another passage that I think of as mountain moving faith. Miracles literally can be done for one with enough faith.
Mark 11:23 (ESV)
Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.

They just don't make prophets like they used to.

Dead right !
This is one of those recent lazy forum infestation/proliferation types who prefer their armchairs to getting out on a winter street to do their business !
No celestial brownie points for them !

When you move a building, for example, does it travel from point A to point B, or is it a form of teleportation?

Can you move a building while keeping the electrical, plumbing and sewer connections intact? (Because that would be very useful). I suppose if anything is possible than that would be possible too.

Cool.

This extreme form of magical religion is not harmless. It is highly profitable, irrational and it has the ability to hurt people. When people reject medicine for example, or blame themselves for their cancer (because people with faith never die of cancer)... it does literal harm.

NB. For those wishing to speak with the author of this thread, he issues the following conditions on his website.

My shape shifts somewhat nervously as I wonder why I like hearing the thoughts of others.

And I realise it is because if I truly believe that an alertchristian is an oxymoronic dvandva then it shall be so.

Yikes

I think everyone that don t believe in that a religion can change your life for good you have to try it first before you come out with conclusion.
But be sure you practice it with heart and believness .
I bet you will have the results and you will understand the what a person mean that a religious life is better . Just be patient
Good luck
