ROMANS 5:6-8 NKJ
6 For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die.
8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

God gave a demonstration to prove He loves you at Calvary -- where Jesus died a cruel death on a cross. He died, in your place, to set you free. Christ died for the ungodly. He took your place, suffering punishment you deserved.

By dying for you, God proved He loved you supremely. There is no way He could have loved you more. Jesus proved that He loves you more than He loves Himself.

JOHN 15:13 NKJ
13 "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.

Jesus gave His life. What more could He do?

1 JOHN 3:16a NKJ
16 By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us.

Many people have had a distorted view of God. The true picture of God's nature is that He loves all the people of the world so much, He was willing to suffer for their freedom.

Many people have had a distorted view of God.

Yes, people who ignore parts of His Holy Bible. People like you.

The true picture of God's nature is that He loves all the people of the world so much, He was willing to suffer for their freedom.

No.

People God hates:
Proverbs 6:16-19 "These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren."
Deuteronomy 12:31 "You must not worship the LORD your God in their way, because in worshiping their gods, they do all kinds of detestable things the LORD hates. They even burn their sons and daughters in the fire as sacrifices to their gods."
Hosea 9:15 "All their wickedness is in Gilgal: for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of mine house, I will love them no more: all their princes are revolters."
Matthew 13:41-42 "The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth."
Matthew 5:43 "Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy."

God kills those who do not believe in Him and then sends them to hell:
2nd Chronicles 15:13 "That whosoever would not seek the LORD God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman."
Mark 16:16 "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned."
Revelation 21:8 "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."
John 15:6 "If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned."

Re: How does one deactivate profile

Yes, Jesus temporarily died so that those who believe in Him could go to heaven.

So how are we being hateful by pointing out all the ways you are failing to believe in Him?

I say your "friend" (for if he is an atheist you're going to have to reject him) was guided by God in bringing you here because you simply can't stay away. Is that not telling you something of your soul's ache for the actual message of God in the King James Bible to guide you in what True Christianity really means?

Re: How does one deactivate profile

Jesus Is The Savior
JOHN 3:16-18 NKJ
16 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
17 "For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
18 "He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

God loved you so much He went into action to set you free. God does not condemn you.

JOHN 12:46-48 NKJ
46 "I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness.
47 "And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.
48 "He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him -- the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day.

Jesus came to deliver you, not to judge you or condemn you. He loves you and desires the best for you.

Do not reject Jesus Christ. If you do, you are rejecting God's only provision for you to have eternal life.

1 JOHN 4:9-10 NKJ
9 In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.
10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

God loved you and sent His only Son to die for you, so you may live -- not because you loved Him -- or even asked Him to. He suffered for you because He loved you.

He has not changed. God still loves you now.

When Jesus Was On Earth
MATTHEW 11:19 NKJ
19 "The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, `Look, a gluttonous man and a winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!'. . . .

Jesus had trouble with the religious leaders when He walked the earth, because He was a friend of sinners. Jesus is the same today. He never changes. Jesus is your friend.

LUKE 19:7 NKJ
7 But when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, "He has gone to be a guest with a man who is a sinner."

Religious people could not understand how Jesus could love and care for a sinner -- they certainly did not. But Jesus did, and He still does.

JOHN 8:11 NKJ
11 She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more."

Jesus does not condemn you for your sin. He understands. He came to earth and lived in a human body just as you do. He knows the pressure. He knows the pain. And Jesus cares. He cares enough to help you be free of the sin; because He knows that sin will destroy you. Sin may give a temporary pleasure, but in the end sin always destroys. Jesus loves you too much to want you to be destroyed.

You Can Be Saved
1 TIMOTHY 1:15 NKJ
15 This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners . . . .

There would be no need to help perfect people. Jesus came to help sinners. The only ones He does not help are those who think they can make it on their own, and therefore ask no help from Him.

JOHN 1:12 NKJ
12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name:

No matter how terrible a person may be, they have the right to receive Jesus and become a true child of Almighty God.

You Can Have A New Start
2 CORINTHIANS 5:17-21 NKJ
17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation,
19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
20 Therefore we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God.
21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

By receiving Jesus you get a fresh start. You become a new creation. You can have another chance.

Sins you have committed will not be held against you. Jesus took your place, suffering the punishment you deserved for your sins, so you could be right with God.

God is pleading with you right now to be reconciled with Him. He loves you and desires the best for your life.

Call On Jesus Now
ROMANS 10:12-13 NKJ
12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.
13 For "whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

Any person who will call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ will be heard. Jesus will help you if you turn to Him.

1 TIMOTHY 2:4 NKJ
4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

God excludes no one. He loves all people so much that He desires them to be in His family, living with Him for all eternity.

Love To Last Forever
1 JOHN 3:1 NKJ
1 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! . . . .

God does not just forgive us, then leave us out in the cold. He makes us part of His very own family.

EPHESIANS 2:4-10 NKJ
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,
5 even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),
6 and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
7 that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.
10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

Don't any of you dare tell me otherwise. Now please keep your end of the deal and delete this account

Re: How does one deactivate profile

You're even cherrypicking from your own quotes!

but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

How can you miss that bit?

[Cranky Old Man]

Re: How does one deactivate profile

Jesus came to deliver you, not to judge you or condemn you. He loves you and desires the best for you.

You are missing the entire point. God only saves those who choose Him! Everyone else will go to Hell!

Mark 16:16 "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned."

John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."

Re: How does one deactivate profile

Jesus Is The Savior

All copied and pasted from other people's work.

It's clear you haven't read the Bible and studied it for yourself. If you had, you would know we are right with one of the verses you pasted.

John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

I like to think of us as a beacon to those who are already predestined and called.

Romans 8:29-30 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

This is your problem, in my opinion. You have already accepted it without reading the license agreement. You simply clicked "I agree."

Now it's up to you to get into compliance on what you agreed to. The only way it's going to happen for you is by actually reading the contract, son.

I'm sorry if the truth is uncomfortable, but it still has to be said.

[Redeemed Papist]

Re: How does one deactivate profile

God excludes no one. He loves all people so much that He desires them to be in His family, living with Him for all eternity.

2 Thessalonians 2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Romans 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Oddly enough we don't want to be on that road to being excluded from Heaven by God. You have the right to exclude yourself, that's your affair, but don't try to drag us down with you on your wishy washy way to damnation.

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

[Cranky Old Man]

Re: How does one deactivate profile

God excludes no one.

Even a child can figure out what is wrong with this sentence. If everyone goes to Heaven then why did God create Hell and why does the Bible contain so many warnings for Hell? Even without actually reading the Bible you could have figured that part out.

Mark 9:43 "And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched"

[Pastor William Nathaniel Sampson]

Re: How does one deactivate profile

God excludes no one. He loves all people so much that He desires them to be in His family, living with Him for all eternity.

Are you sure of this?

Deuteronomy 23:1-3 He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD.
A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.
An Ammonite or Moabite* shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of the LORD for ever:

* Because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt; and because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee.

This is why the Ammonites and Moabites were later slaughtered to the man, woman and male child, with the young girls to become wives later for the Chosen.

You would know these things if you actually read the Bible instead of making God in your own image.

I'm sorry if you find the Word of God to be foolish trifling nonsense, fellow Christian.

Until you read the Bible and can comment on it intelligently, the decision stands. Every minute you spend whining here could be spent reading the Word.

[Redeemed Papist]

Re: How does one deactivate profile

Ask yourself this, friend:

What force do you think is motivating you to steadily ignore the bits of the word of God that make you feel uneasy by telling you ways in which you're going to Hell if you don't stop being some sort of wishy washy fag-enabler? Have you had yourself checked for demons?

I think this "friend" of yours who directed you here wanted you to see the true face of what you claim to believe with your fake Christianity of "God loves everyone, even queers and fornicators" and be so repulsed by it so you finally fall into the clutches of his atheisticalness. This is classic homersexual seduction. Spite him and turn to love Jesus. God loves you so much He inspired your "friend" to twist his own satanic urgings to His almighty purpose by bringing you to people who could rebuke and warn you before it's too late.

Sing PRAISE!

Welcome friend! I have just awoken and am happy to see a new lifetime member here.

Tell me, when Jesus laid before you, which of His offereings 'sealed the deal' to make you commit to an eternity of being a Christian?
