Re: Gentlemen.

I read through some of those threads Bob4God, found many of them very interesting. I found mention of one discussing that Halo 3, a game i have played often, is a recruiting tool for pagans and muslims so we are not to play it. But according to his site, http://www.sexisforfags.com/no-sex.asp, Pastor E. linked in a separate thread I can still play halo 2. I would just like to make sure that this is still in effect.

I am not entirely sure if I am going about salvation the right way, I have admitted my sins, and I am now fully geared up got God. I have slowly started reading the Bible from that link you provided. What else should I do?

Re: Gentlemen.

Oh ok. I can easily give up tennis, I only play it once a month or so. I don't compete so thats easily dropped. I shall read through the thread, thank you for your support.

Personally, I prefer my body to remain a trim, highly tuned fighting machine. It's where I keep my soul, after all!

Re: Gentlemen.

Well that's where you're wrong. You should be concerned about glorifying GOD, not yourself. As a True Christian, you will have no need to be physically active or staying fit. You will have the confidence of the Holy Spirit and the Love of GOD to give you esteem.

Let me be blunt: If you are to be a True Christian, all things in your life except for GOD are to be as poop to you.

“Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of JESUS CHRIST my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win CHRIST." -Philippians 3:8

I will tell you right now that this is an excellent time to sit down and study the amazing wisdom of Landover Baptist in my Christian Advice and Messages of Hope thread. It's an exhaustive collection of some of our finest Bible studies, listed by topic.

American sports like football and wrasslin' are most certainly not gay, but things like soccer and tennis are very iffy and are best avoided by the spiritually weak.

It's ironic about sports, that the activities that require the least amount of physical effort and strength require the greatest amount of spiritual fortitude in order to avoid being turned queer by them.

If you find that you are having manly problems, please contact Pastor Zeke or myself immediately! We will keep you on the straight and narrow!

Re: Gentlemen.

I suppose vanity is part of it as well. Not so much to attract ladies, but to give me confidence and self esteem.

To attract the fellas?

[Blakeyoung]

Re: Gentlemen.

Do you obtain any pleasure out of them? Are you trying to keep your body fit, or are you doing it out of pride and vanity, all the better to lure sex partners? Do you relish the sweaty, physical man-on-man contact that comes with these sports? Do you look forward to the steamy group showers and boyish pranks of the locker room?

Step back and make an honest assessment of your motivations. Jesus is watching at all times, friend. And He can read your mind too.

Well apart from water polo there is no man-on-man contact and it certainly isn't sweaty as we are in the water. It is more violent contact, I once broke two fingers during a water polo match, and as for locker rooms they aren't used so much here. Certainly not for showers or pranks, we just dry off, get changed and thats it. The only time I shower is after the gym, but locker room showers in Australia are private. They are large stalls with a segment for placing your bag and hanging your towel, and another segment where the shower is kept. You don't see anyone else.

My main aim is keeping fit, but I suppose vanity is part of it as well. Not so much to attract ladies, but to give me confidence and self esteem.

Re: Gentlemen.

What should I do with my lifestyle of sports? Are sports considered gay? I swim, row, surf, play tennis, cycle so on and so forth. Should I stop these?

Re: Gentlemen.

Chin Han Lo, and Rev. Moonfloss I have many times on the forum assured everyone that I am not homosexual, nor have I ever participated, or shown, any homosexual tendencies. I understand that there could be some sort of language barrier making you unable to understand so I shall tolerate your constant incorrect assumptions.

Bob4God, I thank you for your prayers. God must have finally answered them by showing just how risky my behaviour is. I do indeed have many sinful friends, I shall endeavor to talk to a few of them about Church. If they chose to not listen I will cut them off.

Re: Gentlemen.

They're more likely to go after little boys than grown men, I'd think.

Well the problem is that all Mexicans have extremely thick facial hair (including women and children) and so a drunk Mexican has no idea what it is he's trying to molest.

Brother Avatar: The gook is trying hard to make himelf understood. I'm sure he'll eventually get up to speed on our Godly American™ language.

In the meantime I think he was trying to make a point that drinking tequila can result in homo tendencies. And worse, if one drinks it in the presence of a beaner, the odds rise dramatically.

Is that about right, chink?

Thanks for the translation, I can't make out gook. Not sure I fully agree with him though, aren't beaners Catlicks? They're more likely to go after little boys than grown men, I'd think.

Re: Gentlemen.

What bloody language are you speaking Pingpong? You're incomprehensible. I suggest you get a KJV Bible and read it to learn how to speak proper english like Jesus spoke!

Re: Gentlemen.

Blake, I can't tell you how happy I am that you are finally coming to JESUS! I have prayed for you for so long and now I see the LORD has finally made an impact, even if He did have to rip a hole in your condom!

An important part of being a True Christian is letting sinners know that they are going to hell, and that you are too Holy to abide with them.

And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. -Ephesians 5:11

I'm sure you have a lot of sinful friends, but either they're going to have to convert or you're going to have to cut off all contact with them, except for witnessing of course.

Keep hounding your friends to go to church with you or to read the Bible. Remember, "no" actually means "I desperately need the love of CHRIST, please help me!" and they will thank you for it once they are True Christians.

GOD bless you, young Blake! PM me any time if you have any needs!
