Hey all!

Hey, I'm a 27 year old believer of Christ and found him by attending the Catholic church for as long as I can remember and joined to say hi to my fellow brothers in Christ. My parents are strict Church goers who think not going to Church should be made a crime.

Welcome to our Little Church in the woods. Why do you hate Jesus? I don't want to sound harsh but Mary worshipers are not Christian now are they? Jesus wants you to love Him, not His mother.

You are half way there Mr Michael. You say you believe in Christ. Good on you. So why do you not quit your false religion and become a Christian? What is stopping you? Are you gay? Are you a youth worker in the catlick church and thus in to young boys? All can be forgiven you know. We can help you convert from your life of sin.

Re: Hey all!

What place does Mother Mary hold in the Baptist Church? We basically believe through her "Fiat" in accepting being the mother of our saviour and making God made flesh that she holds an important part in all this because which God fearing son wouldn't listen to his mother? I do help out in the Church and now have to carry a card saying that I have never had given into damnation by God forbid having gross unnatural acts with anything remotely male. I'm waiting to meet the right lady and marry. For some reason not many people follow my zeal. I was the only one my class to not lose my virginity at some ridiculous age such as 16 or younger. I mean I saw a bumper sticker that said at your age I was watching Noddy not a s** channel or something equally obscene. I do know a few Baptists because where I live they now have one Baptist, one Catholic and one Heathen (true cesspit of evil that was! Thank the Lord my saviour I am no longer working there. Worked a year and nearly lost my mind) High school. Seriously I pray Jesus sends the Holy Spirit to change the heathens here or do a Sodom and Gomorrah if they won't. As to being a Baptist well don't know much about it do I?

Dear Papist Dog;

This is a Christian forum, and we love you despite the fact that you aren't a Christian. We're willing to do whatever it takes to get you Saved(c).

Whatever it takes.

Re: Hey all!

"Teacher," said John, "we saw a man driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of us." "Do not stop him," Jesus said. "No one who does a miracle in my name can in the next moment say anything bad about me, for whoever is not against us is for us" (Mk. 9:38-40)

Whoever loves Jesus is for him because by faith in him you can do the above. He came to save ALL.

Matthew 7:7-12 (NIV) "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. 9 "Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! 12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets."

I come with kindness and respect and love if I say something foolish or perhaps wrong to you then rebuke me with love not insults.

Matthew 11:25-30 (NIV) At that time Jesus said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. 26 Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure. 27 "All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. 28 "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."

Jesus wisely said this because children don't judge anybody. Jesus didn't come to rule he came to serve through humbleness and love.

Re: Hey all!

Fiat is the latin word for "Do unto me according to you word." In other words Mary submitted to God in the most humblest way to be a true example for all women.

[James Hutchins]

Re: Hey all!

To me, it means 'Fix It Again, Tony".

Odd...... conception was immaculate and therefore no submission was needed.

Re: Hey all!

Well I hate to break it to you but God has given us free will to follow him or choose our own path which more than likely mean for many HELL because they follow the easy path of the modern world taking comfort in modern goods instead of following Jesus's call to follow him by carrying our cross with love and humbleness. The road is narrow that we must follow. He is a loving God who sent the Archangel. The same goes for Mary she could have said no but she said yes and conceived the Lord our Savior. God was made man through Jesus so he knows our temptation because he went through it but unlike most of us he humbly accepted that he was to die for our sins on the cross. A most excruciating pain don't you think to save us all from our sins? That is where Fiat comes from because those so entwined in God and Jesus have accepted through humbleness and faith become to become one in Christ, is to submit to God's divine will and providence. Sin came into the world and forced humans to leave Eden where we were meant to live in union with God.

Matthew 12:30 He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.

Haven't you ever read the letter of Paul to the Romans? Jesus did not come to save ALL.

11(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth
12It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.
13As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
14What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.
15For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
16So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
17For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
18Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.

Matthew 7:7-12 (NIV) "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. 9 "Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! 12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets."

Look later in that chapter. I think this part applies specifically to you.

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.
22Many 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?
23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Now, let's look at 2 John:10-11

If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

I come with kindness and respect and love if I say something foolish or perhaps wrong to you then rebuke me with love not insults.

1 Timothy 5:20 Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.

Jesus wisely said this because children don't judge anybody.

Children don't judge? Tell that to my youngest boy who pointed and laughed at a one armed man the other day. Tell that to the nerd kids who get beat up daily by their fellow children.

Jesus didn't come to rule he came to serve through humbleness and love.

Jesus doesn’t always appear to want people to understand His parables (Matthew 13). So far from trying desperately to help people understand that He is the Savior of their souls, Jesus obscures the truth. He predicts quick death and destruction for people who won’t believe the disciples’ preaching (Matthew 10). He cries out against the cities that don’t repent after He performs miracles (Matthew 11).

Re: Hey all!

The same goes for Mary she could have said no but she said yes and conceived the Lord our Savior.

Where in the Bible does it say Mary had a choice?

Perhaps the sinner was referring to an illegal abortion.

What makes you think God is all loving. The Lord is a jealous God

Exodus 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

He is also destroys things he has created because of man

Genesis 7
1 The LORD then said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and your whole family, because I have found you righteous in this generation.
2 Take with you seven [a] of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate, and two of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate,
3 and also seven of every kind of bird, male and female, to keep their various kinds alive throughout the earth.
4 Seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the earth every living creature I have made."

Re: Hey all!

Look go through the Bible and find the word compassion, love, faith or respect. It far outweighs the negative words because "God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God and God lives in them." "God so loved the World he gave his only son." Need I go on? Yes he is jealous (First Commandment is Love your God with all your heart with all your soul and with all your mind. Jesus said the second one follows on from this that you must love your neighbor as yourself. "Who is my neighbor? was a person's response to Jesus who said it was everyone.")but he loves those who recognize his son as the true way. Sorry I will find where these all are. I tend to remember the quote but not where they came from. "Matthew Chapter 18: 5. In vs. 21 Peter had asked Jesus, "How often should I forgive my brother who sins against me?" Jesus' answer says: "There should be no limit to your forgiveness." In vs. 21 Jesus is speaking about a repentant sinner, a person who commits many sins of weakness. In vss. 15-18 Jesus had spoken of an impenitent sinner. Neither God nor the Christian should forgive an impenitent sinner. His impenitence keeps an impenitent sinner from being forgiven. In vss. 26-27 the wicked servant at first is penitent, confessing and begging for mercy. But in vss. 28-34 the wicked servant became impenitent. His fellow servants grieved over his impenitence. And the Lord refused to forgive his debt." Jesus is the true and humble judge who forgives with compassion but you must first repent. http://www.iclnet.org/pub/resources/...l/trin-22.html
