I have recently made peace with all the negativity in my Life and accepted Jesus into my life

Well to put it shortly, life has put me threw the pases and it's been a bumpy ride the last few months, and through this whole experience i discovered God through prayer and he gave me strength to move on and not give up

I will never preach to people to confess ect, or throw down religion onto some1 - that's just not me, every1 can do their own thing as long as it makes them happy :)

And what made you think there was something to pray to in the first place?

Fair enough. Like I said, I don't want to ridicule you or anything, I am just interested in your experience. If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine.

I don't know how many of you know Flyleaf. It's a very metalish(punkish in a way also) Christian band with a lead female vocalist.
This song is really powerfull in the sense that this song truly changed a lot of non-believers hearts.


Now David Crowder Band(which reminds me somewhat of linkin park) did a cover on "All around me -Flyleaf " and it's really one of the best covers that I've heard.



The lyrics
My hands are searching for you
My arms are outstretched towards you
I feel you on my fingertips
My tongue dances behind my lips for you

This fire rising through my being
Burning I’m not used to seeing you

I’m alive, I’m alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I’m breathing
Holding on to what I’m feeling
Savoring this heart that’s healing

My hands float up above me
And you whisper you love me
And I begin to fade
Into our secret place

The music makes me sway
The angels singing say we are alone with you
I am alone and they are too with you

I’m alive, I’m alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I’m breathing
Holding on to what I’m feeling
Savoring this heart that’s healing

And so I cry
The light is white
And I see you

I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I’m breathing
Holding on to what I’m feeling
Savoring this heart that’s healing

Take my hand
I give it to you
Now you own me
All I am
You said you would never leave me
I believe you
I believe

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I’m breathing
Holding on to what I’m feeling
Savoring this heart that’s healed

I don't know what is worse; that this guy believes himself, or that he has followers that believe him? :shock:

He should perhaps forget all his fancy numerology and just go and read the Bible, starting with Matthew 24:36.

If it is 21 May then it means I can relax now knowing that I dont have to worry out IRP5s or IT3s but I cant count on it. The other problem is that I am really looking forward to the witcher 2. And if that is delayed then I wont finish it. And if it is on time I only have 3 days to complete it D:

You know you have your priorities straight when your biggest worry is that the impending apocalypse is going to mess up your gaming schedule... :lol:

The 21st is the SO's birthday, so I may not have to get a present. :o

What can I say? Heaven doesnt have any pcs and I want to achieve something before my life ends. But if you knew the world ends tomorrow what would you do differently? I'd probably go to someone and tell her I want to love her and spend the night. The problem then would be it doesnt end the night and that there is no love.

So yeah, married to my games :P

"So I believe The Rapture is here on Saturday. Does anybody know where they're performing and if there are tickets left?"

The worthy dead will first rise up to heaven, followed shortly thereafter by about 200 million faithful followers saved by God.
Um, last I checked Camping said that every church on the planet has been corrupted by Satan and that only his own followers would be raptured. I'm happy that he thinks he has 200 million followers.
