Re: My Introduction

...What do you actually mean by "hands off" ?

And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

Certainly you are not advocating amputation of body parts here.

I have never known of anyone taking this literally.

You've never met a True Christian™ before.

Where did you ever get the idea that God is okay with you continuing to sin? That's NOT in the Bible.

Oh, I know where (not exactly, but go with me for a bit here): it was someone who tried to convince you (knowing that you'd never read the Bible and couldn't call them on their bullshit) that Jesus is some sandal-wearing peace freak who loves everyone and everything and all dogs go to heaven and the world would be absolutely perfect if we all just showed slavish devotion to some Neolithic tribal war god. And then they asked for money, amirite?

Whereas the True Christians™ actually believe that the Bible says what it means and means what it says. And this is in there:

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

And they haven't asked you for money, and never will. Because that's also in the Bible:

Deuteronomy 23:18 "Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of the LORD thy God for any vow: for even both these are abomination unto the LORD thy God."

You might be a pimp (or a dog breeder *shudder*), after all.

So who do you think is telling the truth about what the Bible says and what being a Christian entails?

Re: My Introduction

You seem to be suggesting that God is a stone age predator substitute. I've heard these ideas before how as a former prey species turned apex predator we retain mental characteristics that prevented our ancestors from being eaten.

Well, they were probably still eaten, just not in their infancy.

But now we don't have to worry much about getting eaten so we've invented an imaginary ogre to fill in the void. And just as we were ever vigilant against predators so this ogre crouches ever ready to pounce.

But how could such a thing create the world itself, the sun or moon or anything at all??

Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

Re: My Introduction

"Judge Not and he shall not be judged forgive and ye shall be forgiven."

I never judge anyone and I always forgive everyone. I am basically a very nice person.

So you think it is fine to judge yourself? You’re basically a nice person? That’s arrogant. I bet you irrationally HATE poor people.

Satan level arrogance.

Psalm 10:2-3 The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined. For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the Lord abhorreth.

Re: My Introduction

I have 7 infractions, none of which I understand.



I am an intelligent and well educated person and none of this makes absolutely any sense to me at all.


Did I come to the right place for help?

Re: My Introduction

Yes.

The Bible is our source for information about God. In it the lies of humanistic secularism are refuted. ALL humans are 100% EVIL and there's nothing we can do about that. GOD on the other hand has CHOSEN a small number (compared to the population of the world across millennia) to be REDEEMED. Are you one of those?

Most people are not. Say if you were one of The Elect but were struck by a boulder before you heard The Good News. What would happen next? It's important to get right with God RIGHT NOW so if that boulder, or lightning, or mental collapse, even spontaneous combustion or brain embolism should strike today you'd know your eternity was secure. Obviously if you haven't been chosen your eternity is pretty bleak. Well, torment is described BY GOD who created everything so DEFINITELY knows all about it including what you think and which mental images you prefer during the self pollution is this really necessary? Well, yes - so that you'd know. But futile if you weren't chosen by God in the first place.

Perhaps in your reply you could suggest a Scripture reading to confirm what I've posted.

Thank you.

I think Sister Mitza's posts are clear enough, as always do. Please refrain from asking rhetoric questions.

Re: My Introduction

What the F&#+


You gave me an infraction for this!!!


What is that now? 8 infractions, for what?


I consider this an open, clear and honest question that deserves an answer.



And please take that stupid "Homer" Award off my profile. It marks me as a homosexual and says that I am a "Sodomite" which is totally and completely false. I am not!!!


All these awards are stupid, so are your infractions.


Please leave my profile alone, please.


And please take these stupid and humiliating awards off my profile. The Pervert Award and the Homer Award, please.


Please, I beg you, please remove them, please.

It will be done, I promise, as soon as you stop being a pervert.

Re: My Introduction

How will you know? How will the group know?


How will anyone know that I AM NOT A PERVERT!!!


Damn it, you people are driving me insane.


I don't know what to do.


I am branded with these humiliating tags on this forum.

It will be done, I promise, as soon as you stop being a pervert.

Re: My Introduction

I've mentioned before how all babies ever born (Eve's first child was conceived after the fall in Genesis 3 so inherited sin from Adam) other than Jesus (who did NOT have a human father) are revolting to God. There are a number of Scriptures explaining this but for now the consequences meted out to Adam and Eve are plain enough.

Which means that prior to accepting The Truth about Jesus we were all revolting too. Many ideas were unattractive to me when I first heard them. Being 100% revolting obviously I rebelled to the maximum extent possible. Studying what The Bible actually says leads doubters into a knowledge of Reality denied to wretches, as The Bible explains, who prefer lurking around the docks at night or bouncing up and down on little trampolines at warehouse parties, where provided. So I have not given you any infractions and will encourage you to read The Bible.

Wailing, tooth gnashing, torment in molten brimstone, all these are promised to those who've not been chosen for Salvation.

Ephesians 1:3-7 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace.

All sin is equal to God, none more or less revolting. The Bible explains how, even at our fallen best, from God's point of view we are just as filthy and disgusting as when we were tiny babies. The Bible teaches that torment forever is what we all deserve but also explains that in Christ Jesus the miracle of Redemption has been made possible.

In Heaven there will be no more sordid attractions of the libido, wives and husbands will praise Jesus with no interruption for ever and ever! Hallelujah!

Mark 12:24-25 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God? For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

..Thank you Jesus

Thank you Lord

You'd think, after all these years, that I'd be getting invites to that kind of shit, but no. Just who's in charge around here, anyway?

Just like to every other question, the answer to yours is Jesus.

Re: My Introduction

The activity was included as an example of precursors to wailing, tooth gnashing and torment in molten brimstone as described in The Bible. I do not endorse bouncing, especially wearing luminous spandex as is the fashion in some quarters, but it may be an environment familiar to some.

Although there is a ministry to seamen bringing the message of Christ where it might otherwise never have reached, for any other purpose it's best to avoid the docks at night.

We are all praying for you.

Of all things, what I fear the most is the tooth gnashing. That alone keeps me away from sin.
