In what do you believe???

The friendliest place on the web for anyone that follows U2.
If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
I believe in the soul, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curveball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sonntag are self-indulgent, over-rated crap. I believe that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a Constitutional amendment outlawing astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve, and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days.

I believe in me.
U???
Apart from Christ, I can do nothing, but "I can do all things through Christ Jesus, who strengthens me".
Christ is the one in whom I believe.
As far as believing in myself, no I don't. As a Christian, I believe the way Bono does in the song "Surrender", in which he says "And if I want to live, I've got to die to myself someday". That sums up what I believe. When someone accepts the Lord and becomes "born again", his old sinful nature is crucified with Christ and resurrected in him is the spirit of Christ; he now has the spirit of Christ dwelling within him. At that point, he becomes a "jar of clay", a "vessel" to contain Christ. From that point on, it is not hinmself ho lives, but Christ who lives in him. That's the point of surrender; to give control to Christ to live through you. The denial of your old nature so that Christ may do greta things through you. That is what my beliefs are. That is what I cling to in life. Jesus Christ is my rock.

I believe you just ripped off Kevin Costner!!
 
Here are lyrics from my favorite band to which U2 is second:

"I don't care if you lay your hands on me brother
I don't care if you baptize your babies in water
I don't care if you say you can prophecy
I don't care if you can see the light in my eye.

I don't care if you close your eyes to pray
Or lift your hands up, lift your hands up to the sky
And I don't know about wonders or of signs
All I know is the love of Jesus Christ.

I believe in one God
And I believe in the truth
I believe in one God above
I believe in You

I believe in deliverance
And I believe in a second chance
And I believe in faith and grace
And I believe in love

I believe in Mercy
And I believe You rose to save me
And I believe in the spirit of God above
And I believe that You believe that You believe in me."

--I believe, whirlpool ep: the prayer chain (c)1992

"Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on." - Stairway to Heaven, Zoso: Led Zeppelin
 
I believe in the Kingdom come
Then all the colors will bleed into one

and so forth.
 
what 80sU2isBest and Alcutura said. And:

"For God so loved the world he gave his only Son that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16)

I believe Christ died on the cross as atonement for my sins, setting me free and giving me a new life as a child of God.

I believe every good thing comes from God. Hallelujah!

Grace overcomes karma...
 
I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
the Creator of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord:

Who was conceived of the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.

He descended into hell.
The third day He arose again from the dead.

He ascended into heaven
and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty,
whence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.

Amen.

I believe that a preposition is a perfectly legimitate part of speech to end a sentence with.
