An Introduction -
04-29-2015, 07:18 AM
Hi. I'm kasmsarojam, or rather, that's the alias I've chosen to use on this forum. I took a quick glance at some of the other threads, and you don't seem to be the biggest fans of aliases, so you can call me Ben. I'd rather not disclose anything else, but an administrator can easily check my age themselves if they're curious. I haven't done any worshipping since before I can remember, and the holiest thing I've done in the past 13 years (before signing up for this forum, of course) is watch a baseball game. Though, it was a Red Sox game, and I noticed that you're not fond of that team for whatever reason. Those reasons are probably why I still haven't started believing in your God and praising Jesus Christ, though, my favorite bible quote out of the ones I went and bothered to find is in my signature. I've always hated my father.
I'm rather interested in your backwards way of thinking, and just how badly you've been deluding yourselves. It's rather amusing to see, especially this mentality going on that being a woman, disabled, black, lgbt+, or whatever other groups you decide you don't like are a choice. Woman can of course, transition to men by becoming transgender if they feel that fits them, but you seem to hate those people even MORE intensely. God has no loopholes, I see.
In my spare time, I usually either play video games, or use the Internet. Does your God say anything about those, I wonder...?
Have a nice day.

Dear friend:
What matters is not our way of thinking, but God's way of thinking, as He has revealed it to us in the King James Bible. If we're wrong about anything, prove us wrong, using Scripture.
Have a blessed day.
This church is dedicated to preaching True Christianity™ and the King James Bible exactly as they are, with no alterations to make them more politically correct for modern liberals. If you think that we've misquoted or twisted Scripture or quoted any verse out of context, please explain in detail how we've done so. Otherwise, if what you read on this site offends you, then you're offended by Almighty God and His Word, not by us.

Yes, but you realize you don't have to believe in God's way, don't you? You chose yourself that you'd believe in a God that would send you to hell for being born a certain way, or living in a certain place. You could easily free yourself by deciding to believe in something else, deciding that maybe, just maybe, the laws of the world wouldn't reasonably be that awful. But no, you have to believe that God is probably an asshole and go on your twisted journey to try and "free" everyone from his supposed wrath with excessive, unnecessary hatred.
I'm not sure if you realize this, but to everyone else, this forum looks like a bunch of idiots. The only reason I even know of this place is because I found a blog post making fun of it.
And, thank you. You too.

Dear Friend,
Of course no-one has to believe in Jesus. Of course we have chosen to do so. You should also ask "why"? The answer in obvious.
Matthew 6:20
But lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

Dear Friend,
We also know that our lot in life is ridicule and persecution. God has explained all this to us in detail:
Matthew 5:12
Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in Heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
The more we are persecuted, the better our future will be in the eternal Bliss of Heaven with Jesus. Yes, it is a choice. You can make the same choice. Jesus is calling you!
It is going to be so nice in heaven. I can't wait!
Yours in Christ,
Elmer

Dear friend,
I don't think you understand what I'm trying to say.
You only have to follow God's words because you have chosen to believe that Heaven and Hell exist. You could just switch to some other religion, some other philosophy to follow that's less harmful to people, and still get the same sense of gratification and false sense of accomplishment without making people feel like dirt all the time. Or, you could just not follow one at all and not have to worry about it. You can decide what the truth is, so why make it a bad one?
Consider for a moment that the KJV Bible doesn't have all the answers in it. Consider that maybe it's wrong, and you don't have to do all that. What then?
Sure, heaven is theoretically a nice place. You have to do so much to get there, after all. But...:
"Better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heaven."
Sincerely,
Ben

Re: An Introduction -

Oh, you're looking for proof! There is lots of evidence for the accuracy of the Bible and, consequently, for the truth value™ of True Christianity™.
Of course, we have the Bible! The Bible tells us it can be trusted.
Psalms 12:6
The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
The verse above tells us that we can rely on the Word of God, the Bible. Unfortunately, this is not enough for many sinners. They require extra-Biblical evidence. While I personally think that it is unnecessary, I have here for you some items to consider:
1. Eyewitness testimony. There are the words of those people who actually lived and witnessed the events during Biblical times. Furthermore, lots of archeological evidence supports the Bible. For instance, there are descriptions of cities that have been confirmed with archeology. See also Genesis 10:11.
2. There is the testimony of us True Christians™. Our lives have been changed and these wonderful, awesome changes are consistent with SCRIPTURE! See also Luke 1:47.
3. Look at the prophecies in the Bible. They HAVE BEEN FULFILLED!! Daniel Chapter 2 predicted the Roman empire and much more. For reference, see Daniel 2:34.
4. There is a unique and miraculously consistent nature of manuscripts of the Bible during a time when there was only illiteracy, unreliable greedy scribes and slow methods of communication. See also Psalms 12:6.
5. There is a prerequisite of God for secular logic and science. In science, the satanic concept of evolution embraced by atheists, catholics and false Christians gives absolutely no possibility of a mind that could be trusted at all. How could quantum fluctuations in the alleged space-time produce a mind that could RELIABLY examine anything?! If evolution were true, we would not be able to trust anything. The same for human, mundane logic. See also Ruth 2:12.
Yours in Christ,
Elmer

You can't just choose your view of reality like you can choose your sexuality. The Bible talks at length about God and what God wants. There is nothing strange about following God's Word. That is why America is God's favorite country. God made sure to dictate the Bible (like a boss to a secretary) in easy to read form.
Maybe you didn't get the Memo?

That's an utterly self-centered thing to say. Just because you do not acknowledge reality for what it is doesn't mean that we have to just imagine another one. Reality cannot be changed and God is part of that reality. Or, if you will, reality is part of God.
I take my orders from Jesus H. Christ, supernatural born US citizen
Be wary of false Kumbaya Christians who use a highlighter and scissors to read the Bible. God wants us to read the lines, not between the lines. False Christians will go to Hell:
Matthew 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Asking a Christian to prove God exists is like asking him to prove his phone rings because yours doesn't. Make that call yourself! Dial 0800-get-on-your-knees-and-pray.

Not really, no. I could care less about the straws you grab on to to convince yourself that your God is the only real God, and that everyone else's is illegitimate. There's also “proof” that The Doctor from a Science Fiction series is real, ( http://whatculture.com/tv/10-things-...ally-exist.php) but that doesn't mean that just because of these ten things I'm going to start believing that robots will try to enslave the human race and that by the year 5,000,000,053, Earth will have imploded and there will be a city called New New York built in space.
1. Source? I don't mean the biblical source, since you guys appear to be at least decent at that, but the Internet source where I can see all of this apparent archeological proof.
2.Of course it did. Deluding yourself into a religious lifestyle will do that to you. ( http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-deception)
3. “Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out ||fwithout hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and gbrake them to pieces.”
What am I supposed to be getting from this, exactly? I'm confused on how those two things are related.
4. “The words of the Lord are pure words:
As silver gtried in a furnace of earth, hpurified iseven times.”
There's a miraculously consistent nature about how everything is about God? Gee, yeah. Wonder why.
I apologize, but I'm not seeing the point you're trying to make here.
5. When did I say anything about science? I agree with you, not everything in the universe can be figured out by making up equations and solving them. However, a good portion of it isn't just creating a theory and saying that it's true, they try and prove it with multiple experiments before deciding that it's the truth, rather than in religion where if you claim that God's talking to you and scream it in the streets, and/or have it written down in your Holy Book, it's suddenly The Truth, making one a bit more credible than the other.
Also, this statement is incredibly contradictory. "All science requires God as a prerequisite, but damn, that SATANIC concept of evolution..."
Sincerely,
Ben

Except that you can. Actually, it would probably be easier to change religions than sexualities for most people if another became suitable, depending on how spiritual you are and what religion you're following. You guys, however, might be a lost cause, since you appear to have believed in the same thing for a long, long time, maybe even your entire lives. Hard to reconfigure mental programming that goes that deep.
You simply just stop believing in one thing, and start believing in another. It's that easy to free yourselves from the ties of God. He only has power over you when you believe in that power.
I like how you call me arrogant after you ask me "Did you not get the memo? ". This was exactly the True Christian™ experience I came here for, keep up the wonderful work.
That's what you believe. You've tied God down to every aspect of your life, even your sense of reality, which is a bit sad. And boring. Why live like that when there's so many other religions to choose from?

A Small Question -
04-29-2015, 10:52 PM
Since, you know, I'm most likely permanently Unsaved Trash, or will be within a few days, and can't start forums anywhere else.
Are other things besides bible quotes allowed in my signature? I want to keep the quote I have now, of course, but if I add something else to it, I won't get an infraction, right?

I think it is right to say that a signature represents the purity of the soul, advice to the fallen and/or an inspiration from Jesus. I'm sure your attempt will reflect one of these.

Amen, Brother! Why, no where else can you find real-life stories of deception and speed the likes of which inspire stories thousands of years later! Ehud is one of my children's favorite heroes!
The story of Ehud (while the foundation of the popular movie The Matrix -Hollywood predictably got it all wrong) is the story of sin, spies, revenge, and liberation. The Israelites were under the illusion that they were under the protection of free will, but what they didn't know was that God had given Eglon, king of Moab, power over Israel. When they realized their fate was not their own, they cried out to God to help.
God sent Ehud, an ancient version of Neo but far cooler than Keanu Reeves could ever hope to portray, to fight the antagonist (Eglon) who was far fatter but no less dastardly than Agent Smith. Getting past King Eglon's crack security was accomplished by making Ehud crafty enough with his left hand to inspire him to hide his sword in his right hip. Getting permission to see the king privately to deliver a message was no problem with the appearance of being unarmed.
In a singular move of stealth, deception, and ninja-like reflexes, Ehud delivered his "message" to the king. Stabbing King Eglon right in the fat belly, emptying his bowels all over the floor, where he then fell, pushing the sword so far deep into his gluttonous mass that it was hidden from view. Ehud made a clean get away as the king's security team thought the king was busy with his afternoon constitutional and didn't go check on him for a long time. Needless to say, his constitutional had been taken care of with an 18 inch blade and the Wrath of God!
(Judges 3:12-30)
Hello, my name is Mary. I hope to fellowship with you! That is, unless you don't listen to church authority (Deuteronomy 17:12); are a witch (Exodus 22:17); are a homosexual (Leviticus 20:13; Romans 1:24-32); or fortuneteller (Leviticus 20:27) or a snotty kid who hits their dad (Exodus 21:15); or curses their parents (Proverbs 20:20; Leviticus 20:9); an adulterer (Leviticus 20:10); a non-Christian (Exodus 22:19; Deuteronomy 13:7-12; Deuteronomy 17:2-5;Romans 1:24-32); an atheist (2 Chronicles 15:12-13); or false prophet (Zechariah 13:3); from the town of one who worships another, false god (Deuteronomy 13:13-19); were a non-virgin bride (Deuteronomy 22:20-21); or blasphemer (Leviticus 24:10-16), as God calls for your execution and will no doubt send you to Hell, and I have no interest developing a friendship with the Spiritually Walking Dead.

Welcome friend! You know, you do not have to be gaywise. You can be Christian instead. Wouldn't you rather have Jesus be you BFF instead of some sweaty leather clad muscular youth?
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

I know you think women are treated badly here. However, we get what we deserve, and are treated well. All we have to do is simple, obey the Bible and thus obey our husbands. As long as we do those two things, we get treated like queens. My husband gives me a large allowance in order for me to go shopping and do as I see fit (withing Biblical parameters). He's a kind, generous man who will make sure I go to Heaven, no matter what!

I'd like to take a moment and thank the True Christans for the icon. While I preferred my old one, I actually used to have one a bit like this on a different forum. Reminds me of old times.

Are you sure? You sound like someone who hasn't went and seen either of those movies. This is exactly what I mean. You hole yourselves up and read the bible all day, and don't let yourself consume any media that isn't Christian-related. Which means you're missing out on things like enjoying this wonderful piece of art, as well as other perfectly fine pieces of media. which is my favorite game in the entire world. Please play it.

The Israelites were under the illusion that they were under the protection of free will, but what they didn't know was that God had given Eglon, king of Moab, power over Israel. When they realized their fate was not their own, they cried out to God to help.
God sent Ehud, an ancient version of Neo but far cooler than Keanu Reeves could ever hope to portray, to fight the antagonist (Eglon) who was far fatter but no less dastardly than Agent Smith. Getting past King Eglon's crack security was accomplished by making Ehud crafty enough with his left hand to inspire him to hide his sword in his right hip. Getting permission to see the king privately to deliver a message was no problem with the appearance of being unarmed.
In a singular move of stealth, deception, and ninja-like reflexes, Ehud delivered his "message" to the king. Stabbing King Eglon right in the fat belly, emptying his bowels all over the floor, where he then fell, pushing the sword so far deep into his gluttonous mass that it was hidden from view. Ehud made a clean get away as the king's security team thought the king was busy with his afternoon constitutional and didn't go check on him for a long time. Needless to say, his constitutional had been taken care of with an 18 inch blade and the Wrath of God!

Yeah, but that's only one part of the bible, and it's also filled with unnecessary drivel about how God made the world and whatnot. Why go read the bible, filled with more old, dated philosophies than action, when I can go read the Hunger Games or something like that, where I get a consistent, action-filled plot?
The Matrix isn't based off of that story anyways, it's based off of the concept of lucid dreaming. ( Source, scroll down to #9)

A sweaty, leather clad muscular youth wouldn't just watch me suffer in hellfire just for not obeying his father's word. And they'd probably have a motorcycle.

He's a kind, generous man who will make sure I go to Heaven, no matter what!

When did I say that? You guys sure do make a lot of assumptions. This one's true, though. The things said on here from and about women are really concerning.
That leads to horribly unhealthy possibilities, though. A lot of the men act like they could get less of a damn about you if you're not married to them, Pastor Ekeizel especially. I'm half-convinced he hates women and is really bad at hiding it, I swear. Would you seriously let your husband, the one you're supposed to be tied down to for the rest of your life, treat you like nothing? Are you even allowed to disagree with them? Is your only criteria for marriage to be that they are a True Christian, or that your dad decides he wants you to? What if he tells you to kill yourself, what would you do?
You've dedicated your lives to endlessly pleasing people, and it's not healthy. You have more purpose to your life than having kids and getting married. Before you're a woman, you're a human being, and deserve to be treated as such.

Of course I'm a human being! I have dominion over the animals, since I'm created better. Don't you understand that I'm third in command here? First it's God, then my husband, then me? Thus, I have control, and it's like the military. There's a first, second, third, forth, ect. order that obeys each other for the success of all. God created an order, and I need to be obedient and follow it!
I'm not treated like nothing. I have nice clothes to wear, a nice house, servants to boss around, and a loving husband. I would happily do whatever my husband asks me to do; however committing suicide is against God's law and thus, my godly husband would never ask me to do so. I have standards, and they were created by me, my father, and the Bible. And I can disagree, but I don't have to voice it. My husband is the head of the household. Traditional marriage has worked for eons, throughout all sorts of change, and it shouldn't and won't change with the 21st Century. I'm happy and fulfilled in my marriage and isn't that what all of us want?
Yours in Christ,
Elizabeth
