    Salvation vs. damnation

    Since you don't like abstract thinking, I'll keep this short and simple:

    Let's say there are two opinions;

    1) I'll become a devout follower of God

    2) I'll rot in Hell for getting on your nerves with my posts on this forum and spreading "blasphemy" in the form of protecting the ones you blindly accuse of being demons and such.

    So you chose the first one? Now did you choose it because it's what you truly wish for, or is it because it's how God advices you to do? Would you rather have a muslim terrorist be damned or saved, if only possible? Do you shred tears with pain when you see someone who's acted against God's Law, or do you laugh at their damnation to eternal torment?

    Everyone acts as they think is good, they all pursue good according to their own values. Those may be twisted and even in the wrong, but please let them have a chance.

    Sir, yours is a recipe or doing nothing! As the child reaches forward to put his hand in the fire, are we supposed to just shrug our shoulders and say, "Oh well, that's what he wants to do."?

    As the Catholic Church slaughtered and tortured millions in the name of Satan, should we have said, "OK, that's what they feel is right - let them make their own mistakes."?

    We have intelligence, and the Wisdom of Ages in the Bible - why would we want to live in your world where "ignorance is knowledge" when we have the freedom of obedience to God?

      You choose what is right for you. I follow the KJV1611 Bible. I believe in God and His teachings.
      I would love it if everyone was Saved©.

      If people make poor choices, it is too bad, but if by being made an example of, it Saves© someone else, then the mockery is good.
      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.
