Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

We do not "damn" anyone here. No one has the power to damn, save God.


However, the Bible explicitly gives us the power to condemn those who ignore Jesus and His teachings. (Isaiah 54:14-17) We have not yet condemned you as far as I can tell, but rather we have reached out in True Christian(TM) love, speaking only the truth that is the Word of God. Hallelujah! Glory! Praise God!


I am not sure why you are so skeptical of my words, since I am definitely not skeptical of them. I live that of which I speak. Being washed in the Blood of the Lamb, I no longer sin (1 John 3:9), which means Christ liveth within me, giving me authority and wisdom. He asks me to be perfect (Matthew 5:48), and I am.


Perhaps you have envy of the fact that I am a handsome, intelligent, well-built, muscular and tall certified equine gnathologist soon to hold a PhD in Creation Science. Perhaps you are just ignorant of what being a Christian truly means. Either way, I want to warm the cockles of your heart and the bowels of your being by informing you that GOD IS ON THE THRONE. He will hear and answer prayer and bring you to His Fullness if you surrender to His will.

Don't close yourself off to those of us who are trying to shew unto you the special gifts of knowledge with which we've been blessed.


Yours,

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

Basilissa,

yes I do believe some members on this site our taking the scriptures out of context, But I am willing to discuss this, because as a believer in Jesus Christ, I believe it is important to stand firm together in truth without division.

I am looking forward to you pointing out specific examples rather than just throwing accusations without proof.

As to my fine opinion of man's authority, first it was not an opinion, by following John 3:16-17 I am saved by Christ, I made that statement of man's authority, to clarify that only the person who accepts Christ and Jesus Christ will know if you are actually saved, no third party can make that judgement, that was all I wanted to imply.

Are you implying that faith is the sole condition to be Saved?

If so, the Holy Bible says you are mistaken:

Matthew 16:26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Matthew 16:27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

Matthew 25:34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
Matthew 25:35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
Matthew 25:36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Matthew 25:37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
Matthew 25:38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
Matthew 25:39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
Matthew 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

Revelation 20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
Revelation 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

James 2:14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
[. . .]
James 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
[. . .]
James 2:20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
[. . .]
James 2:24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
[. . .]
James 2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

As you should know, not everyone who professes to be a servant of the Lord will be Saved:

Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Matthew 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

In addition to believing and doing good works, you have to keep all Commandments:

Matthew 19:17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

A single slip and you're on your way to Hell:

James 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

I'm not judging you (even though Jesus wants me to judge using righteous judgment, John 7:24), I'm just merely stating that your confidence that you are going to Heaven seems a bit exaggerated.

Now, to your statement of abandoning worldly belongings, that would be a difficult task, because your car, your house, your clothing are also worldly belonging, but it would make no sense to get rid of all these thing,

And I do not believe I said that.

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

Mary,


Why bother, you people will just twist it around, show me a true Christian on this site, and maybe I would be concerned, I have been nothing but kind and polite, while your members have been taking pot shots at my character, you are no friend of Jesus Christ, and you are no friend of me either, so why don't you just ban me, because the truth is unwelcome here, and if you don't, I will continue to speak the truth, and if you or any of the other member don't like what I say, well tough. And I am still waiting for my 1000 infraction points.


Sincerely,
Farrier88

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

Frankly there are more profitable conversation to have, then what can be find on this site.

Friend, there is nothing more profitable than Salvation! If you are concerned that a True Christian(tm) has misquoted the Word of God, kindly point out where and we'll fix it right away in addition to contributing a small financial gift to the anti-homosexual/revisionist history advocacy organization of your choice!

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

Didymus Much,


Thanks for the advice, but no I will continue to post my way, if that is to difficult for you, oh well, I stopped caring what anyone on this site thought a while ago. And continue to act superior, I am almost impressed. Also if these good people want to ban me, go right ahead, I don't give a damn at all. Frankly there are more profitable conversation to have, then what can be find on this site.

Luke 9:5 And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

...if you want a scripture or two to match the occasion, here you go...

Couple things should be covered right about now:

1) Please clear the "waaaaaah" from your KJV search terms and find something relevant. No one is interested in a "no, I'm more persecuted" fight with you.

2) This is their forum, to which they have been kind enough to invite you to participate, as a guest. Tantrums will not be tolerated.

3) Please use the "Quote" function (little button, lower right corner of every post) when replying to make things clearer.

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

Mr. Farrier, why do you hate Jesus so much? Why do you refuse to listen to Him? Why are you so offended when He reaches out to you. It is not cold sweaty palms, it is His Blood on them. Don't you care what He sacrificed for you?

[Farrier88]

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

Didymus Much,


As much as I enjoy the violin, and appreciate your offer of assistance, I believe that I am good, alright if you want a scripture or two to match the occasion, here you go


2Ti 2:24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, (yes they have definitely follow this scripture)


Pro_3:30 Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done thee no harm. (And this as well, they clearly have not just been attacking all this time, for no reason)

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

...me being hostile??, wow ok, well if you want to pervert the truth and see me as a villain...

Pervert the truth? They're the ones offering it (Scripture, that is), not you. I see no Scripture supporting your points quoted in your posts.

... as for my infractions, I feel I deserve more then 25 points, lets make 1000 points.

Want me to show you how to link some Youtube violins to go along with that?

[Farrier88]

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

Mary,


I am not sure if I should even take this site seriously anymore, it is very clear to me, that attacking and belittling is an acceptable action for your members, me being hostile??, wow ok, well if you want to pervert the truth and see me as a villain, be my guest, as for my infractions, I feel I deserve more then 25 points, lets make 1000 points.

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

And where exactly did I call anyone a liar?.

You see, Jesus Christ promises that he who abides in Him, will in turn be abiden in by Him. That person will bear much fruit. Furthermore, he who does not abide in Christ will be cut off, pruned, tossed in the fire, so long ding-dong, good riddance to bad garbage (John 15:4-6). As our dear, esteemed OP has not been tossed into the fire but has instead been continually blessed by Christ, you are accusing Christ to be a liar, or else the Holy Ghost is for having guided Bob4God maliciously and taught him falsehoods (John 14:26).

Although I suppose, in order to give you the benefit of the doubt, you might simply believe Jesus is ignorant or incapable of doing what He said He would do. Is that it, dear? You believe Jesus doesn't really mean what He says in the Holy Bible?

Please show me where I disrespected or was bearing false witness against anyone or anything. My faith is to Jesus Christ and only him, I am curious as to why I am reprimanded and BrotherLarry can say what ever he feels like, regardless if it is Christ like or not. And to be clear you are not my betters, that is extremely prideful thing to say, and I do not regret anything I said at all, give me 1000 infractions, it will not change the truth.

You have already illustrated yourself to be ignorant of the mind and will of the very God you profess to have faith in, despite his thoughts having been painstakingly yet conveniently written down in a collection of letters, poems, histories, legal documents, called The Holy Bible. You'll be patient while we discern just what you do believe. Don't be hostile, friend, this is for your own good. You'll thank us later. I promise.

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

Greetings and Salutation to everyone,
I have been reading what been written on this site and those commenting in this forum, so to gain an understanding of both sides. Now I am a believer in Jesus Christ, I am saved by faith in him, and his blood washed away my sins, so I have read the information provided by both side, and looked them all up in the king James bible, and am a little lost as to how you all have come to the conclusions you wrote, I agree that there are demonic music out and I would not be surprised to learn that is some rap and rock a roll, but I am curious as to how you know that all things you are saying are true and not just an opinion. Evil and sin are usually a lot more obvious to a believer in Christ, because it can be fun, I won't lie, but I am having a difficult time agreeing with you all, the scriptures provided by this site are not a definite proof, because the only way to know if something is a actual fact in scriptures, is by correlating it with other scriptures, else you may fall prey to having an false impression of the true meaning, I honestly see an opinion more then an actual fact. And just because I know that most words will be taken out of context, I will add this, nothing anyone says will change my salvation in Jesus Christ, point in fact no one man has the true authority to make that judgement. I am not for or against this site as of yet, I have seen the evil of this world and know of the power that sin has over us, I am not oblivious to the effects of music, but I a little curious as to where exactly in scripture you find your evidence to back up your statements.

Hello dear, and welcome to our friendly forums! How interesting you accuse the Holy Ghost of lying to the OP, Bob4God as an introductory post to a church community. As you can see, his Salvation has been confirmed by the only church that can guarantee such a thing, rendering his opinion about the matters of faith and morals particularly trustworthy. The Lord thy God has shaped Bob4God's opinions through the special relationship he has with the Holy Ghost and Jesus, who are the same but not really, which is kind of a double whammy with regards to being right, but I digress. If Bob4God was wrong, Jesus would have pruned him from His Vine/Self as He threatens (and He makes good on His threats), but that has not happened and so the evidence speaks against you. Tell us, does this often work, whatever it is you're trying to do by accusing good people of being foolish enough to believe a lying ghost, holy as this one is?

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

Didymus Much,


I am sorry for the confusion, my second reply was for basilissa, not the first, that was for BrotherLarry. And your are indeed correct she did not insult me, your response was polite.

[Farrier88]

Re: The Christian's Guide To Detecting Demonic Music

Basilissa,


My first reply was to BrotherLarry, and I will now reply you to your message.


First and Foremost, thank you for your polite response, in answer to your question,

yes I do believe some members on this site our taking the scriptures out of context, But I am willing to discuss this, because as a believer in Jesus Christ, I believe it is important to stand firm together in truth without division.


As to my fine opinion of man's authority, first it was not an opinion, by following John 3:16-17 I am saved by Christ, I made that statement of man's authority, to clarify that only the person who accepts Christ and Jesus Christ will know if you are actually saved, no third party can make that judgement, that was all I wanted to imply.


Now, to your statement of abandoning worldly belongings, that would be a difficult task, because your car, your house, your clothing are also worldly belonging, but it would make no sense to get rid of all these thing, as it would impact your ability to live and discuss Jesus Christ with others, but for clarity, I do not loves the things of this world more then Christ, but I do enjoy living in this world to some degree lol. Thank you for taking the time to answer my message, and if you want to continue I look forward to your response.


Sincerely,
Farrier88
