What is a clone? Its a cell, group of cells, or organism that is descended from and genetically identical to a single common ancestor; to make multiple identical copies of a DNA sequence; to make or create an identical copy of a human being.
Now, suppose a scientist made a clone of you. The clone is identical in every way. God gave you a soul at birth and a spirit. They are embedded into you. You, before you were cloned were created in the image of God. Your clone would also be in the image of God. Your soul would be the same, your spirit [two of you now], and you'd both return to God when you died, or would just one of you? What happens to the clone? Which of you goes to heaven? What if the clone accepts Jesus as its personal Savior or is that already implanted in you before the clone was created?

Is your name in it? Not everyone has his or her name written in the Lamb's Book of Life. Its not put in at birth. You have to ask God to put your name in it! How? When you accept Jesus as your Savior, He will write your name in that book.
The Bible offers 3 reasons for having one's name blotted out: 1]. For sinning against God, 2]. For not being clothed in the righteousness of Christ through the new birth, and 3]. For taking away from the words of the book of this prophecy.
[Revelation 20:15] establishes the importance of the Book of Life, for it tells us, "If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire." First of all, you stand before God, you will be judged by the book of law, by the Book of Life, and by the deeds done in the flesh taken from the books of human works.
Then, just before that person is cast into the lake of fire, he or she is given a double check. The recording angel will look through the Book of Life, and "if anyone's name was not found written in the Book of Life, he or she was thrown into the lake of fire!"

An untold number of people have tried to predict the Lord's return by using elaberate time tables. Most date setters do not realize mankind has not kept an unwavering record of time. Anyone wanting to chart for example 100 BC to 2000 AD would have contend with the fact 46 BC was 445 days long, there was no 0 BC, and in 1582 we switched from Julian Years [360 days] to Gregorian [365 days]. Because most prognosticators are not aware of all these errors, from the get fo there math is already off by several years. There's 242 predictions, some years have more than one prediction. I shall give the dates only.

Starting with the time of Theuday in the year 44. The others that followed are: 53, 80, 100-200, 130, 381, 400, 435, 470, 500, 950, 964, 965, 968, and dozens more.
Let's move forward to the 1900s and onward. The years: 1910, [1914, 1918, 1920, 1925, 1941, 1975, and 1994 all predicted by Jehovah's Witnesses.

To get into heaven, you will need a passport. Read on....
What is the purpose of a Kingdom of Heaven passport? The purpose is to identify you as a citizen/resident of Heaven...God's home! You are eligible for this passport if you renounce your allegiance to Satan and to the governments of this world, AND, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and His government. This is what the passport looks like:

You get there by taking the Glory Train. If you miss the train, there's another one coming during your lifetime. Once you get to heaven and St. Peter allows you through the white heavenly gates, you will receive the following:

The above includes the title to your mansion as the Scriptures promised, and your Heaven ID card, plus your Driver's License to drive the car of your dreams upon the highways of heaven and the universe.

Area 51 - does it exist? You won't find it on any road map, the military will deny its existence, if you trespass on that area, you'll be shot to death.
Area 51 is considered a military base where aliens and their spacecraft are stored after being captured by the military. As an employee there, you need a pass to get in [secretely, of course]:
a

   
Its been said by many military personnel that aliens are already walking the earth and living normal lives. Sure they are...if you want to believe them...feel free to do so. They are called The Grays or The Greys. If they exist, the government allowed them to live here in exchange for valuable information. They may even have a valid drivers license like this one:

This is interesting to know. DO NOT accept this as fact!!
The term Gnostic means-to know, the acquiring of knowledge. Gnostics believe they receive salvation through their knowledge. The Gnostics believe that Adam and Eve are not actual people but merely representatives of whom we are inside, our soul or spirit.
The Gnostics state the Genesis account is not a historically factual account. The Gnostics embrace the mythological sense of this thought through an acquiescence of knowledge. They also believe that Adam and Eve were not the ones from whom all other life came, but merely representatives of two intrapsychic principles found inside every human being.
The Gnostic creation myth believes that the name Adam deals more with knowledge, psyche comprehension that each person has, and the term Eve relates more to our emotional, feeling, and sensing knowledge base.
The Gnostic creatic myth which had been disregarded for centuries...[now check this out]...has resurfaced in our modern era in the form of New Age thinking. In other words, the New Age religion evidently has incorporated the Gnostic creation myth into its religious beliefs. Be careful...you are being deceived!!

The Apocalypse of Peter, aka The Revelation of Peter, is an example of a simple, popular early Christian text of the 2nd century. There was a Greek version that had been deposited in the grave of a Christian monk of the 8th or 9th century, but now is in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Certain quotes were mentioned in the Apocalypse of Esdras, the Vision of Paul, & the Pasion of Saint Perpetua.
Peter's Apocalypse deals with the Risen Christ to his faithful, offering a vision first of heaven, and then of hell, granted to Peter. In this Apocalypse it mentions the punishments for the sinful actions of the Jewish notion of 'lex talionic' and "eye for an eye," that the punishment may fit the crime. Some gasly punishments in hell include, among others, blasphemers are hung by the tongue; murders are set in a pit of creeping things that torment them; those who lend money & demand "usury upon usury" stand up to their knees in a lake of foul matter & blood; women who have abortions are set in a lake formed from the blood and gore from all the other punishments, up to their necks. They're also tormented by the spirits of their unborn children, who shoot a "flash of fire" into their eyes.

What if Maricon's canon which consisted only of Luke's Gospel & Paul's Letters, entirely omitting the OT, had become Christianity's canon? What if the Ebionites, who believed Jesus was completely human & not devine, had ruled the day as the Orthodox Christian party?
What if various early Christian writings, such as the Gospel of Thomas or the Secret Gospel of Mark had been allowed into the canonical NT? Back when the Christian movement began, there were scholarly tales of forgies, burned books, doctrinal feuds, & other episodes in the making of the NT & theearly churches?
The Secret Gospel of Mark is interesting to note since I've never heard of it, tells of a letter of Clement of Alexandria [2nd century] which quotes the supposed secret gospel. It tells of Jesus raising a man from the dead, & then insinuates a homosexual encounter between the two. How sick can a person get!!! The letter was never found in the Israeli monastery where Morton Smith supposedly discovered it. Most likely he forged the letter himself.
Back to the Marcionities, the foundere-Marcion viewed the God of the OT as fundamentally flawed, & viewed Jesus as an emissary from the true God who would liberate humanity. As for the Docetists, they thought that Jesus' suffering was illusory since the real Jesus did not have a real body.

In the first centuries after Christ, there was no "official" NT. Early Christians read fervently followed many more scriptures than we have today. SUCH AS: The Acts of John; The 2nd Gospel of Mark; The Acts of Paul & Thecla; The Coptic Godpel of Thomas; Infancy Gospels; The Epistle of Banabas; The Apocalypse of Petere; and, The Gnostic Gospel of Truth.
Relying on these writings, some Christians believed that there were 2, 12, times or as many as 30 gods, that a malicious deity created the world, that Christ's resurrection had nothing to do with salvation, that Christ never died at all!
What did these other scriptures say? If such beliefs were once common, why do they no longer exist?
