Trigger, you cannot expect a reasoned answer from a xtian because they
rely heavily on "faith". This leaves a much lower emphasis on reason
which results in great big holes in xtianity that you could drive a
freight train through. I went through this process of examining
xtianity 3 years ago (being a xtian myself at the time) and I came
away with the realisation that it is inconsistant, contradictory and
incomplete in its message. Basically, a primitive fear based
religion. I'm afraid Trigger has summarised the answers that you are
likely to get very well and in fact if you do hear anything
different, I would like to know about it as well.

Chucks!!! Your fell out of love, because your beloved didn't live up to
your exalted expectations. Either that or you were dumped because you are
unable to show love and caring, only logic and reason, the latter being the
foundation of head-games. Logic and reason only kills love, not generates
it.
Christ is all about love, and ONLY love, and there is nothing in Christ
that's "fear-based".

You must be thinking of Judaism.

THE MANDATE OF JESUS
**Jesus in Lk:4:18: The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath
anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the
broken-hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of
sight to the blind.
**Jesus in Mk:2:17: When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are
whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to
call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
**Jesus in Lk:9:56: For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives,
but to save them.
**Jesus Mt:18:11: For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.
**Jesus in Jn:12:47: And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge
him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
**Jesus in Mt:11:28-30 "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened,
and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am
gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my
yoke is easy and my burden is light."
