What would you do if you had been born this way?

[CaseySilva]

Good day everyone, my name is Casey, and I've been struggling through life for a couple decades now, I've always been a firm believer that someone up there is watching over us and taking care of us, I've been what you'd call celibate, my whole life, never really been able to please anyone enough that they would consider sharing their life with me, the last time i've told a lie, no matter how small along the lines of making an excuse to not go to a social engagement was on my teenage years, and that was a LONG time ago.

I've been laughed at, ridiculed at school, struggled through grades for never being the smartest person around, but never had i doubted that He has a bigger plan for all of us, that we should trust Him to what is going to happen, never ask and beg as if he owed us something or ask for insignificant material possessions because they won't matter in the afterlife.

I've followed the Ten Commandments ever since I stopped lying on my young teenage years ( couple decades ago ), I've never accumulated wealth, always lived my life through simplicity and respect for everyone I know, if you wish to know what's wrong with me, just ask and I will tell you, but from what I've said so far, would you say I was an evil person to begin with?

Friend

First you must understand we are all evil. That is the central message of The Bible; only God is truly generous because He has nothing to gain. However, you have done the right thing, taken personal responsibility and turned your life over to Jesus on an act of Blind Faith(r) that He will reward you in Heaven. So the answer to your question is; yes you are evil, but Christ has redeemed you.

Welcome to our forum friend.

I've followed the Ten Commandments

That is very good, it really is. But the KJV1611 Bible contains much more than just these. Do you follow the entire Bible or just parts of it?

True words Bobby-Joe, true words!

I was evil until I was Saved©. Every day, trying to take for myself. Living the high life. Thinking I had it made. But the hole eaten in my soul by the evil within eventually came to large to ignore, I was on the brink of despair. I gave my entire life to Jesus and have been blessed ever since. These last 47 years have been wonderful.

Following the Ten Commandments is a great start toward your life as a Saved(c) True Christian. Also, TITHING to your church is important.

Lemme guess, you're a negro? Or maybe a messicant? I think we have programs that can help you.

Don't worry, Brother, there have been more hopeless people than you who have accepted Christ and gone to Heaven to the company of God and his fellow Saints. At least, I think so...
The only thing you need to do to fill that gaping hole in your life is to accept Christ as well, and live a True Christian(tm) life from now on, even when this includes things like hunting witches and converting atheists by pelting them with Bibles. Be welcome in our True Christian(tm) community!

I'm not sure what your problem is here, friend. What church do you attend?

Good intentions are not enough to achieve Salvation(r).
