Re: Scripture Challenge

Well, that is a mystery to me sir. But I have known Jesus these past 17 years, and I hear His voice. Sometimes it accords with scripture, sometimes it does not. But a personal relationship with Christ is the only way to get to know Him. You will not find Him in the pages of a book.

But again we ask, how do you know it's Jesus? Satan himself can appear as an angel of light.

2 Corinthians 11:13-15 13For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

Now we know when Jesus is speaking because Jesus has given us this wonderful Book that tells us what he thinks. So if someone comes to us and says the LORD told me homosexualism is okay, all we have to do is look up what the Bible says. If the Bible says differently, you are either a liar or being lied to by Satan whom you have mistaken for the Angel of light.

Psalm 12:6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

1st Peter 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God which liveth and abideth forever.

When even the atheists that lurk this board are telling you that you're wrong, you have to wonder exactly where your message is coming from. What makes you so special that God would speak to you? Are you one of the prophets of old? Are you one of the apostles? Or are you a man who is disparately trying to convince himself that his lifestyle is not sinful? Should we believe a person who says God sent him to kill people (although that is more in line with the Bible). Should we believe a Christian Chicken raper that all of the stuff against bestiality (and there is less condemning bestiality than there is condemning homosexuality) is mistranslated? I went to the site you posted to at the beginning. I saw bright lights and flashing sales pitch and absolutely nothing to back it up. Well I can find books that tell me God was an alien, God isn't real, and God is a flying spaghetti monster. Just because it's written in a book doesn't make it right. The Bible has withstood 2,000 years of scrutiny and is still standing.

Re: Scripture Challenge

Have you noticed this homer does not reply to womens post. Christian Rover must hate women, but pretends to be one.

Very true and observant, Sister Lisa.

Have you also noticed how he is everywhere on these forums all of the time? I wonder how he's doing that...do you think he could be possesed?
Maybe he's a witch or a sorcerer or something of the like?!
He's beginning to frighten me a little; I'm so glad I have my Lord to turn to for comfort in these situations.

Nonsense. I talk to Jesus every day and he doesn't say anything like what you make up.

Historical accounts are truly remarkable things. Voltaire described them aptly when he described them as a series of accumulated imaginative inventions.

Hey, it's alright if you lost the debate. Don't feel too bad about it

Yes it does scare me how s/he is fluttering about on these forums. I thought I saw it checking out the womens swim wear and cooking threads. He might be a witch, I am more inclined to lead towards a fairy. Fairy's are known to have magical powers by waving their wands around.

Like you, I am glad the Lord will protect us and we are able to turn to Him.

Christian Rover is probably a fairy, but I don't think he's clever enough to wield magical powers.

Then of what use is the Bible, other than steadying a wobbly table? If we take what you're saying to its logical conclusion, then you might as well just ignore the Bible altogether, listen to your "Jesus," and hope fervently that your "Jesus" actually is Jesus and not just your own imagination or, worse, a demon sent to deceive you.

And still you're opening all sorts of threads after being asked not to.

Re: Scripture Challenge

Guys,

You've got it all the wrong way around. Get to know Jesus FIRST, then - and only then - open the Bible. Read it prayerfully, AFTER having got to know Jesus, and it can be a wonderful aid to getting to know the Lord.

But you can't do things the other way around - Bible first, Jesus second. That way you end up with a very skewed view of Christianity, and you don't get to know the Lord personally.

Do you call your boyfriend Jesus? Otherwise this just doesn't make any sense.

Well since you are absolutely phobic about even speaking to a woman, let alone answering one of her questions, my wife has asked me to step in and ask you this.

If you don't read the Bible, how do you know where the spirit that you have received comes from?

We know that our spirit comes from the Lord because the Lord does not change and the Holy Spirit would not tell us to go against the Bible.

You come on here and basically preach a new scripture based on things that go directly against the Bible.

Your post raises some interesting questions, but I object to being called a "chicken raper". So I'm afraid our conversation ends here

Re: Christian Rover's own special thread

How to Post Like Christian Rover

1. Start a new topic.
2. Make a claim that goes against established True Christianity(tm).
3. When Bible verses are presented to you that show you are wrong, ignore them or say that they are no longer applicable. (Of course, the Bible verses that support your argument are completely valid and right!)
4. Get demolished further by True Christians(tm) who know more about the Bible than you do.
5. Don't admit your loss. Ignore and sidestep the issue altogether.
6. Go back to Rule #1.

Re: Christian Rover's own special thread

You are being so juvenile.

The fact is that the Bible can be used and abused to argue for or against a hell of a lot of positions.

The question is whether you have met the author first, or whether you want to mould the author into your preconceived world view.

I know the Lord. I talk with Him. He sends His Holy Spirit to counsel me. 90% of scripture accords with what He says, but I would never, ever ask an unsaved person to open the Bible lest they become confused about the remaining 10%. Alas - as I have said before - it strikes me that a lot of posters here have religion about Christ without Christ. It is a [false] religion you have learned from a book, and not from the Master Himself.

I don't say this likely to people, but I think I need to say it now. You must be born again. Almighty God is intolerant of all religions, except that which He has instituted in His Son, Christ Jesus. You must drop your preconceptions of the Lord, and leave behind what you think you know about Him. Then repent, and ask Him into your life, and He will teach you how to use His Word. Not to abuse it for your own ends.

Yet again, how do you know it's the Lord?
