Re: Which is "worse"?

This is what I'm talking about, how can you say your even trying to be Christ-like putting yourself over people? Jesus Christ never shot down the people He came to save, He created them. So how are you showing the grace of God to this woman?

Friend,

I think you are obtuse here, as someone who is repented of my depravity and accepted Jesus Christ as my personal savior by definition everything I do is filled with the Grace of God. To suggest otherwise is to suggest God doesn't exist.

Now, if Christ doesn't take a firm (though loving) stand with sinners how do you explain Him attacking the money changers in the Temple? What you have in mind is incidents like the harlot He saved from stoning; someone called a sinner by society that Christ embraced. What you are missing is these people were labeled sinners by false believers like the Pharisees who were instructed by their true master Satan to persecute true believers. Christ was only unmasking this fraud.

Christ is going to send the vast majority of the world's population - nearly everyone who has ever lived, in fact - to eternal suffering in the Lake of Fire, and call His devoted followers home to live with Him. How is that not putting some people over others?

Re: Which is "worse"?

Does it really matter? Judging by your comments you have no interest in faith or the philosophical side of religion. Otherwise religion is suppose guide a person on how to behave in society. You constantly reject being part of the group. Good going, you're inDUHvidal now. Repent and accept Jesus as your savior before it's too late sinner.

Hey, the Harry Potter books are good reading; a bit low on the reading level, perhaps, but plenty imaginative and entertaining.

Well enjoy hell then.

No he's one of my favorite authors.

I'd have thought he'd be a bit wordy for you. Judging by the intellect and reading comprehension level displayed in your posts, I was guessing the H.P. stood for Harry Potter, not Howard Phillips.

Re: Which is "worse"?

No he's one of my favorite authors. I enjoy Crowley's works, as well, but I wouldn't use them in ritual. Both of these authors were in love with Victorian language, which is about 100 years out of date. They also had vivid imaginations, which Is a virtue in my book.

You do know what God thinks of witches, don't you?

Why don't you toddle on over to the Introduction section of the General Church Fellowship forum, and share with us your >ahem< "beliefs"?

We'll save the rebuking for there. This thread is a discussion of the relative merits of false religions, not a place to tell you repeatedly that you're on the fast train to Hell.

Thanks.

Re: Which is "worse"?

Yes, that explains your choice of name and subjects of conversation.

I imagine you also dislike H.P. Lovecraft, the other half of your pseudonym?

Sorry, but i'm not a Thelemic. Crowley was rather, um, wordy.

So, Sinister, your spirituality embraces aspects of Christianity, Paganism, and Eastern Philosophy. Have you considered Thelema?

This is a Baptist Church forum, not a place for you to recruit into your Satanic cult.

Get with the program, or get thee hence!

These are texts relating to the philosophy of Thelema, many of them written by the occultist Aleister Crowley who founded the organization A.'. A.'. (Argentium Astrum -- the Silver Star) as well as others by members of the OTO (Ordo Templi Orientis -- Order of the Eastern Temple) (founded by Theodor Reuss and Karl Kellner in 1895). These two organizations work together to promote Thelema.

Re: Which is "worse"?

I said don't harm others. Otherwise, pray to whoever you wish, or don't pray at all. I don't mind if someone wishes to pray to the Christian God, and I don't mind if someone choses to pray to their houseplant. Whichever religion someone choses, it should make them happy. peace. "If you harm none, then do as ye wish"...or something like that. Two separate religions make up quotes that I like, "Blessed are the merciful" (Christianity) and the one above, which is from the Wiccan Rede. All religions to me are both right, and wrong in some cases.

You are demented beyond belief. Does it really not bother you whether the Gods you pray to exists or not? Ultimately, there's a point in praying to Christ, because He can save you from eternal Hellfire, and your houseplant or "goddess" can't.

I didn't mean to set the link, I was just looking up how to spell his name, and when I copy-pasted it, it set my entire text to a link

Re: Which is "worse"?

There's loads of proof that he was once a real person. Where did "Buddhism" come from if there wasn't a man to start it all? Siddhartha Gautama was his given name, and he was born to a queen and king. I don't deny the existence if Jesus. They both walked this earth at some point. The question is whether they were "special" or not like Christianity and Buddhism says, but historically, they were both around. You can google it if you want to know more about his life.

Setting a link to a notorious satanic website and expecting us to accept that as definitive proof that your fat chinkgod actually existed is ridiculous. That is not proof. That same site also has sections on Zeus, so by your logic, Zeus was a real person too?
