Re: questions

thank you very much. I agree with much of what you have said. Also, I appreciate that you are willing to answer the question. Still, I would like to withhold my opinions until I have heard a few more.

Why not go to the closest store and buy a Bible?

Re: questions

It seems that my questions will not be answered. Because I have wished to remain neutral in a discussion, I have been deemed a "rabble rouser", and "a typical lazy toothless deviate brit sponging off the backs of people who work for a living.." I mean no offense in any of my words, but it seems that mere inquisition coupled with a wish to observe what others feel before I comment with my own feelings, is an offense in itself.

Yes, I have read some of the other posts on this site, but I have not found any that deal with the subjects that I have inquired about. That is why I have asked the question.

I am sorry if I have offended any of you.

Humbly,

Friend, you speak with the forked tongue of a snake. I never called you any of those things. I said a person who refuses to answer a question is often typified by those characteristics. If you feel those appropriately fit you, then you have earned them on your own with no coercion or undue influence.
I know for a fact, if you searched using any of those terms, you'd get many, many complete responses.
As Levi points out, they are well covered in the KJV Bible too, as that is where OUR answers all come from.

I am sorry if you feel I have misquoted you. I may have made your words seem as though they mean something that you did not wish them to.

"For all I know, you are a typical lazy toothless deviate brit sponging off the backs of people who work for a living.."

"I think you are a rabble rouser."

You are right, you have not accused me of any of these things, you have simple stated that the first is a possibility, and that the second is your opinion of me.

Alcohol:

Alcohol is bad (Proverbs 20:1), except when it's not. (1 Timothy 5:23)

(I'm not sure what "sign gifts" are so I will skip them)

Love:

Love is first and foremost for us to show GOD, in gratitude that He saved us from His judgment. Not loving GOD is dangerous. (Joshua 23:11)

Love is also between a man and a woman who are married (Ephesians 5:33), but never two men or two women, as that is unnatural and gross. (Romans 1:27)

Love is for us to show our enemies, and those who persecute us. (Matthew 5:44)

Love is what we have for our family. (1 John 3:15)

Hate:

Hate is what GOD does when He isn't loving us. GOD is not neutral on anything. (Proverbs 6:16-19)

Hate is also what we are to show our family. (Luke 14:26)

John 3:16:

It is every fluffy bunny Christian's favorite verse. It is also the only verse they know. They take it out of context to mean that only believing in JESUS is enough to get to Heaven, without realizing you have to do everything the Bible says.

What makes you think any of us are going to disagree? Pastor Levi gave you scripture to back up his position.

Brother you are so wise. The still small voice inside of me is telling me to be very wary, that this is a wolf in sheep's clothing getting ready to pounce when he feels that the time is right.

Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Re: questions

Sign gifts: THIS is about right.

I remember some deluded Pennycoastal jibbering away like he'd suffered brain damage and expecting that someone might understand the revelations he was getting by way of epileptic seizure. The police were called and we never heard of him again... I sometimes wonder what became of him.
