GreenApple, I rejected your friend request because you are unsaved trash.
What did you expect? It would never work. Unless of course you are willing to accept the tenets of TRUE Christianity™ (which includes everything in the Bible).
Let me know when you are ready to accept the conditional love and forgiveness of Jesus.

Lots of people claim to be Christians but they only follow the bits of the Bible that they like. When True Christian™ follows the Bible (KJV1611) it get followed to the letter: all of it. Not just the bits that fit with the so called modern world 
Fair weather Christians who pick and chose from the Bibile (KJV1611) make me sick with rage!!!

The point, sinner, is that you are walking a knife edge between living forever in the bosom of Jesus or burning forever impaled on the barbed member of Satan.
And you choose to bandy words and act like it's all such a big old joke.

What verse in the Bible most fufills your needs as a Christian?
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 don't believe there is one verse in particular that describes precisely what I need, however since you have asked I will give you my best attempt at it.
I believe that Luke 14:25-35 is a good set of verses that accurately describes what you are asking. It does a really good job of referencing what was mentioned earlier; many people claim to be Christians but only looking at the pieces of the Bible that they like.

Can you tell me which part of Luke that you selected you interpret as referencing "only looking at the pieces of the Bible that they like" ?

Upon further inspection you can see that Luke 14:33, it is written "So likewise, whosoever he be of you that oforsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple." This can be interpreted to say that Jesus will not accept those that aren't willing to give up absolutely everything for Him, are unworthy to be His disciple. In other words, those that only view the pieces of the Bible that they can follow without much additional effort, are not worthy to be His disciple.

Interesting interpretation . . . and demonstrative of the danger of interpreting instead of reading.
The statement is very clear -- if you won't give up everything for Him, you are not worthy of Jesus.
Perhaps James 2:10 would be a better selection:
For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
Now, getting back to your introduction (and I do hope a Moderator will split this off into a thread for you) -- Who are you? Why are you here? And what does it mean for someone to "green apple" you, as you so vigorously demand?
It brings many images to mind, precious few of them appropriate to a Christian church's discussion forum. 
Bible boring? Nonsense!
Try Bible in a Year with Brother V, or join Shirlee and the kids as they discuss Real Bible Stories!
You can't be a Christian if you don't know God's Word!

GreenAppleMe is an alias and nothing more. Think nothing of it. I am just a person who is here because I want to be a part of the Christian community here. Is any more information necessary at this point?

I beg your pardon? What kind of fools do you take us for, just believing any old story?
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.

uh...you should tell us your favorite verse from the bible, what church you attend, what your sins are.
Exodus 21:20-21
20And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely punished. 21Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money.

Already did that. I don't currently attend a church. My sin is not coming here earlier. (answers are in the order of your questions)

Yes, and everyone who is not saved is walking a fine line etc... did you think that makes you special?
It's time to live your life by scripture! Do so or burn.

I always teach the children that they should not behave like uppity whores if they don't want to burn in Hell. When a Christian tells you to use more scripture, you need to use more scripture, not talk back to them. As talking back to them makes you their enemy and thereby Jesus' enemy (Matthew 12:30). So next time you talk to someone, stop wasting time with your insignificant opinions, and tell everyone how they should please Jesus! And use scripture since your own words don't matter at all.
2nd Timothy 4:1-2 "I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine."

I was never told to use more scripture. I was told to do the same thing twice but I didn't want to seem like I was spamming so I refrained. I have yet to state any opinions and have been doing nothing except quoting the Bible. I am only doing what you people ask of me. I apologize if you find my answers unsatisfactory.
