Well, hello there!

[Arrogant 1]

First off, let me be sure to use my "shift" key since God was so kind to supply my keyboard with one.

Hello, stumbled onto this site after a friend on the internet posted a link to it.
Im a sinner, I admit it. Here from Upstate, Ny.
With that out of the way - can you save me?

Re: Well, hello there!

You do that, yourself, friend. All you have to do is let Jesus into your heart and dedicate your life to Him.

Re: Well, hello there!

I wouldn't know where to start.
Up to now, I have had no guidance.

Do you have a King James V bible?

Re: Well, hello there!

If you're here to mock Jesus, then no.

If you are ready to open your heart to Him and shed your arrogance and hatred, then there is a slight chance that you might find Salvation(r).

What makes you think that you are "enlightened?"

You guys are so worried about being mocked. I see it in a lot of the threads. I don't think you guys understand why.
Anyways, by definition, I am enlightened:
adjective
Having an education: educated, informed, lettered, literate.

Well, wanting to repent is the first step! Remember that Jesus loves us all very very much and that we can aspire to be like him. Perfect and white and not a bigot, chink, jap, homosexual, Catholic, Hindu, Mooslim, Anglican...(Look to Pastor Ezekiel's sig for further guidance). We are all Blessed in His Holy name! What a privilege!

We aren't worried about anything. We are simply passing along the Biblical admonition on mocking God.

Jude 1:17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
1:18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
1:19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

Don't twist our words.

I think you meet the definition of arrogant. Enlightened is another word for Saved(c), which you clearly are not.

It's not that we are mocked that upsets us, it's when sinners mock God, now we get very up set if you do that.

The questions is are you ready to accept Jesus? Will you offer your life to
Jesus, your soul are you ready to be washed in the blood of the lamb?

I think you meet the definition of arrogant. Enlightened is another word for Saved©, which you clearly are not.

Hmm, I must have missed that definition, because I didn't see it when I looked it up. I have a degree, I am literate and I keep myself informed - Enlightened.
Had I known those same things meant arrogant, I'd have used that name instead. Sorry.

So, by your statement, is it mocking you or the bible if someone doesn't understand something that the bible claims, and asks questions about it?
As soon as someone doesn't agree with the context of a subject, the "are you here to mock us" flag gets raised immediately.
Just an observation, don't kill me!

Another person who thinks that because he can read, he can understand.

You ask to be enlightened, yet you say you are already enlightened. Then why come here?

A cup that is already full cannot be filled.

Re: Well, hello there!

There is no socalled "context" in the Bible. That is just a liberal left-wing idea Satan instilled in the brains of all those heretics and wickers. There is only the literal word of God by which we must abide - it is not open to context or subjective interpretation.

I am enlightened - not saved. Big difference.

And yes oh yes there is context. There is context everywhere you look. Because something is written, it doesn't mean that someone understands the meaning behind it. This is the context. Instead of pointing out that people may be stupid for not taking the word of God literally like you do now, why not help them understand the "context"? What a concept!

[James Dewitt]

Re: Well, hello there!

The Bible, the only bible, KJV1611, is the word of God. Now that is a concept you need to understand my friend. It is not full of suggestions, just facts that you should be able to grasp!

Re: Well, hello there!

The ability to comprehend context is one of the key things that makes man superior. Failure to understand context then is self explanatory.
