    hi everyone

    I've gone to church about 2 yrs ago but that was only for my job. The last time I've been to a church service must've been around 6-7 years ago when somebody dragged me over there. My favorite bible verse is

    Matthew 5:28 ESV "But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart."

    Re: hi everyone

    Welcome, friend. It is truly fortuitous that the LORD has brought you here, that you may be instructed in sound True Christian™ doctrine.

    Has wallowing in iniquity lost its luster for your? Are you prepared to accept Jesus Christ as your personal LORD and Savior?
    II Thessalonians 1:7-9
    And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
    In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
    Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power



    The man who is being progressively sanctified will inescapably sanctify his home, school, politics, economics, science, and all things else by understanding and interpreting all things in terms of the Word of God and by bringing all things under the Dominion of Christ the King. -R.J. Rushdoony

      Your job required you to go to church?

      Are you a man or a woman?
      Christians are superior because we possess an understanding that unbelievers lack. It is through the Power of Jesus only the converted mind is able to understand what is going on in the world; what the Communists are really up to; what Satan's intentions are. Most unbelievers do not even believe in Satan and cannot understand his tactics.

        Praise the LORD you found us.

        You were obvious on a train heading straight for HELL. What's going on in your life right now, since you have decided to find JESUS here at God's favourite forum?
        How old are you son?
        Please tell us why Matthew 5:28 is your favourite Bible verse. Unless you, yourself have many filthy and sinful thougts, it seems a bit odd to favor this particular verse. Unless of course you are a True Christian™ who doesn't have a perverted mind. But to be honest I doubt that very much, since you haven't been in church for 6 or 7 years. Please explain yourself.

          What kind of job makes you go to church? As for your friend dragging you there, it's nice that you have friends who are concerned about your eternal soul. So are you here to learn more about Jesus? If you want a basic rundown of our church, please read this. I pray that you will open your heart to Jesus.

          Matthew 5:28 ESV "But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart."
          Well first of all you're going to have to get the right Bible. You can go to any Independent Baptist church and ask for an Authorized King James Version Bible, or you can read it here.

          That seems like a strange favorite quote for someone who doesn't go to church. Can you explain what significance it has to you?
          PROOF: Atheists are too stupid to understand the Bible!

          Proverbs 13:24(KJV): "He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes."

              Okey dokey. I do hope you can explain this verse a bit more. I had to have sexual intercourse with my wife 8 times to produce our three sons. Some say I am lucky. Some of my True Christian(tm) brothers had to do the deed many more times before God granted them a child.

              Sadly my wife, Sarah, passed away in childbirth with our last little fella. That was now 8 months ago. I am due to remarry ten ten twenty ten. But I already have three great sons.

              Do I have to have sexual intercourse with my new bride? I can care financially very comfortably for my new lady and my three sons. They will wont for nothing. But .... well you know .... do I have to "perform" on the wedding night?

                  You and I are in a similar situation. I have just recently remarried, having already generated three Soldiers for Christ(tm) with my now deceased ex-wife.

                  I, for one, plan on propogating my seed yet further. We True Christians(tm) have a duty to breed as much as possible.

                  If you are worried that you might have a daughter, just remember you can always give her up for adoption. I had four daughters with Ethel and did just that.

                    Re: hi everyone

                    I do not care at all about the sin of adultery but instead that desires that you have are sinful. Whats the difference between having a very small desire to not sin like me and having a big desire? All I need to do is say that I'm a sinner and I'll still make it in heaven.

                    "Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. (20) For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven" Matthew 5:19-20

                    "You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.' 22But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, 'You fool!' will be liable to the hell of fire. Matthew 5:21-22

                    So why are people trying to not sin again? To get in heaven or something? Everything you do here will be forgotten, the earth will pass away. Desires/wants also aren't an excuse to sin either, so pretty much every sin you do is "willfull." In fact, it seems that loving/desiring anything in this Earth is evil (sinful).

                    And about me not being at church, I believe that no where in the bible does it say that you need to be at service every week. It is a human tradition, much like folding your hands to pray, or wearing a cross.

                      I'm afraid not, friend. The Bible says that Christians are perfect.

                      1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

                      How could we not be perfect if Jesus himself admonishes us to be perfect?

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

                      In the Book of Luke, Jesus tells us that in becoming perfect, we are like God.

                      Luke 6:40
                      The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.

                      That is the exact point. God will judge you for what you have done and your words.

                      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.

                        You can't rely on your righteous works to get into heaven. Either you rely/trust jesus or believe that your righteous deeds good enough. How much good must you do to get the holy spirit in you?

                        "But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison." James 3:8 KJV

                        "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." 1 John 1:8

                        So, are you saying that you have no sin? How can you repent of your evil desires? As I posted in my intro, if you even have any lust with a woman, then you've committed adultery. If you desire anything in this world such as money or even food (no wonder why he fasted). You have desires that rival your desire of showing love to god by obeying the commandments, since you can't infinitely desire something.

                        That is the exact point. God will judge you for what you have done and your words.

                        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.
                        Let's quote more of revelations.

                        revelations 20:11-15
                        "Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. From his presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them. 12And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to what they had done. 13And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them, and they were judged, each one of them, according to what they had done. 14Then were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death Death and Hades, the lake of fire. 15And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire."

                        This means that people who have not rejected (spoke evil in their hearts) about the holy spirit, aren't even immediately sent to the lake of fire when they die! It does say in the bible that there is judgment after death but it does not say that it happens immediately after death. This does NOT refer to believers.

                        No, I meant regular people. God still remembers people in the back of his mind.

                        The bible says that the will of the father is to believe in him & look upon him, that's it! And it is directly said in the bible. In fact, jesus said that nobody will enter heaven if they do not do the will of the father.

                        I don't know, I only read about 10%-15% of the bible.

                          I'm going to do this in multiple posts. 1 John 1:8 is prior to salvation. Why would John write that we are all sinners if he goes on later to write in his epistle concerning both works and perfection the following.

                          Christians are superior because we possess an understanding that unbelievers lack. It is through the Power of Jesus only the converted mind is able to understand what is going on in the world; what the Communists are really up to; what Satan's intentions are. Most unbelievers do not even believe in Satan and cannot understand his tactics.

                            I do not look at women with lust ever. I have a great wife who keeps me very satisfied.

                            Money, I don't care about. I make enough as an associate Pastor and the church provides me a very nice apartment. I know that it is more difficult for a rich man to pass through the eye of a needle than to get to Heaven.

                            As far as food goes, it's a basic human need. God told us to eat, silly.

                            29And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

                            This means that people who have not rejected (spoke evil in their hearts) about the holy spirit, aren't even immediately sent to the lake of fire when they die! It does say in the bible that there is judgment after death but it does not say that it happens immediately after death. This does NOT refer to believers.
                            BZZZZTTT

                            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.

                            The sheep and the goats.. Matthew 25:31-46

                            Luke 8:21 And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.

                            John 5:29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

                            Romans 2:5-6 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;
                            Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

                            James 2:24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.

                            Revelation 22:12
                            And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
