Friend, if not wanting your self genital mutilation to stop and have you give it all to Jesus is an 'attitude' then yes, we have an attitude about God!
Why do you hate Jesus so very much?

Re: Some questions

I will take that as a yes.


Seems everyone around here has an ATTITUDE.

Hi! .. I don't have an attitude.

How's the introduction going? There doesn't seem to be a reference to self-pollution in Mary's signature (I looked up the references to check) (you could have done that too) but God is very clear about which people should be executed. Adults. Children. Babies. Without a moral compass the Godliness of these facts would elude you. But in Christ we have all our doubts dispelled. The babies God commanded to be killed deserved to die because of what their parents and grandparents had done. Over and over again. God explains how even as yet unborn babies will deserve death followed by torment (once they are born) because of actions back in Queen Victoria's day or even earlier, according to the sin, are you suggesting God was mistaken?

Because if He were mistaken, that would make Him a murderer (according to you) wouldn't it. Yes. It would. As Dana pointed out, the rules of the forum are presented clearly so I'm sure you know what they are. When the urge comes over you (you've told us about this so I feel free to respond) DO NOT whistle up the ferret or rummage about for electrodes or whatever you do INSTEAD pick up your Bible and read out loud. As loud as you like. Demons cannot endure the living Word Of God but of course if you think God got it wrong, about creation or about babies or sacrificing one's daughter or trussing up one's son or nailing Him to the cross for no reason just so His blood could run out or Jesus promising to kill all those billions quite soon in these last days then you're probably on the side of the demons and no decent person would look twice at you.

Is that what you think, Bchas?

Tell me, what do you really think of Christians?

Re: Some questions

So what do I really think of Christians.


In reality I love Christians and I love people.



It's just the totally insane and absurd beliefs of everyone in this forum that I have problems with right now!!!


I admit that I might have a nasty habit, but you folks are totally insane in some of the things that you believe.

Thank you for replying. We know that Christians are incapable of sin because God tells us. Others are so less endearing that we have no reason to associate with them at all, except when showing them The Gospel. Far from thinking it's Good News most people don't think it's news at all. Either it's "nonsense" or an "outrage" or even a "criminal extortion racket" yes we get all this. So when they say oh why don't you come over for a glass of fruit punch or even more idiot proposals it's best to smile (but not nod) and then go home.

In your case maybe even the smile would be misconstrued but perhaps I'm not a suitable species for your mental imagery? You didn't say. If I can help in any way please let me know.

In Christ.

Re: Some questions

You say that "Christians are incapable of sin" and I don't find that anywhere in the Bible.



My case in point is that I am very sinful and commit sins on a daily basis.



Is there no hope for me?

1 John 3:9
Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

Interestingly, this also suggests that keeping your seed in you is one of the prerequisites. What does this tell you about self-abuse?

There is hope for you, but you are still trying to cheat God, keep sinning and go to Heaven.


All God demands is you to change your lifestyle, give up everything the gives you pleasure and adore Him all day. Is it too much for an Eternity of joy? I DO NOT THINK SO.

Re: Some questions

Many people describe their earthly relationships as fulfilling. But Jesus requires us to hate our loved ones. He is very explicit on this topic using direct speech NOT with a parable, illustrating a more nuanced commandment, such as The Good Samaritan.

Luke 14:25-26

Jesus had used the parable of a man preparing a banquet (whose friends refused to turn up so he invited all the waifs and strays instead) to illustrate how His own kingdom would be denied to those for whom it was prepared and passed on to a different group instead, who actually do read and follow His commandments. Luke 14:16-24

And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said unto them: If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.

I am aware that people make stuff up, essentially ideas they've come up with on their own, and then attribute their idea to Jesus. Certainly, as Jesus has promised, The Holy Spirit can communicate ideas from God but in that case the idea would not contradict something spelled out so clearly. God would never communicate the idea that The Ten Commandments should be disobeyed for example, and that we should now all run around looting and perjuring ourselves.

On the other hand, a different version of a parable may well be appropriate to illustrate something such as the use of digital media to facilitate adultery. "There was this non-binary," one may suggest "who logged on to its preferred social media platform and who do you think was on-line? Yes! Another non-binary demonstrating connubial options (for non-binaries) and inviting audience participation! There was broided hair, excessive bling in the most unexpected places and when the non-binary's cis partner walked into the room an air of awkwardness developed rapidly. 'What on earth do you think you're doing?' the cis partner hissed. 'Nothing,' the patent leather stilettos looking quite out of place now not to mention a latex zentai suit crumpled on the floor. The partner points with a seemingly infinite finger: 'Get out.'" Although the parable is different the principle remains the same. There may or may not be an actual non-binary in that situation (probably there is) but after the story I could go on to something important for my audience to know. What Jesus explains in the passage from Luke is more than just important. It is critical. People who refuse to hate their loved ones cannot be disciples of Jesus.

In the same way it's been pointed out that Christians cannot sin. Jesus is quite specific in His commandment here. He is not commanding something impossible, that would be ridiculous. He is commanding perfection:

Matthew 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

Christians are perfect. Incapable of sin and commanded by Jesus to be perfect. He spells out the standard of perfection required: God's standard. When people announce their latest theological ponderings and what they've come up with contradicts God, we can be certain they're not Christians. They can say they are till they sprout gills but by contradicting God they are calling Him a liar. Often it's helpful to ask them for their source. It could be I'm mistaken and when Jesus told us to be perfect He really meant not to keep ferrets; when He told us about hating our loved ones He really meant to buy them an ice-cream (which was quite a luxury in Roman times) and if so it would be easy for someone to show me where I'd got it wrong.

Can you show me that, Bchas?

[biatch77]

Re: Some questions

I can not show you anything, I am afraid.



came here looking for hope and trying to find counsel that might be helpful.


My confession is that I am not perfect.


I confess that I am a sinner with nasty habits and evil desires.



No I don't have an answer for you, only that perfection seems impossible for me.

[MitzaLizalor]

Re: Some questions

I've decided to accept your friendship request. We only have one source for the teachings of Jesus: The Bible. It was always impossible for everyone to attain perfection. Some cults invented the idea of "making merit" but all we merit is everlasting torment. Vile from birth, what perfect God could even look at us?

Deuteronomy 6:13-15 Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his name. Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people which are round about you; (For the LORD thy God is a jealous God among you) lest the anger of the LORD thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth.

Clearly it was necessary for God to impregnate Mary and then kill His only begotten child. Making Eve pregnant and killing that child wouldn't work. Now I don't know why it wouldn't work but God did something else which is all the information we need on the subject. Perfection then became possible for humans: perfection in Christ.

Here's a link to a study Bible I've found helpful; there's a little ? icon top right corner with a "how to use" that's useful too.

it's implied, if you put all you love and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ you won't have time to wanky wanky, in short read more because and you will understand that the Bible is very clear on sin and how not to commit it.
