[WeAreThePeopleOfGod]

Hello I'm Bob Joel i come from Mississippi, i think i am a modest guy. I live a nice life with my wife and kids; i constantly read them the bible. ESPECIALLY genesis because it tells them how the world was made by god. I read both the new and old testaments and live by the 10 commandments.

I hope to have a humble start here and to spread the word of god.

One thing i don't get is supporting the bible and be pro-war, but hey thats just me.

Isaiah 42:13 The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies.

Revelation 19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

Hope that helps.

Hello I'm Bob Joel

You're not related to that drunk, high-school dropout from the Bronx, William Joel, are you?

i come from Mississippi, i think i am a modest guy.

If you have to say it, you probably aren't. I say that not out of malice, but from many years of experience in ministering to people. Anyone who says that they are humble or modest is tooting their own horn.

I live a nice life with my wife and kids;

Praise God for your rich blessings! How many kids has the Lord blessed you with? Have they produced offspring themselves? What a happy man you must be, with an obedient and fertile wife and several kids running around!

i constantly read them the bible. ESPECIALLY genesis because it tells them how the world was made by god. I read both the new and old testaments and live by the 10 commandments.

Well that is a good start. Goodness knows that women & children need constant reminders of the Word to keep them in their respective places. Genesis is certainly a good book to read, since it reminds us of our place in the universe: one step above dirt. And it reminds women that it is their fault that there is pain & suffering in the world today.

I hope to have a humble start here and to spread the word of god.

So far so good! The only thing I must mention is that Jesus and I have noticed that you have a real problem with capitalizing His Name. You're not just pretending to be a Christian, are you? We have no time for people like that. Forgive my accusation, but we get so many false Christians coming in here, claiming to be such pious followers of Christ but then it turns out that they are simply here to mock us, with the goal of infiltrating us and being a cancer to our humble group here.

One thing i don't get is supporting the bible and be pro-war, but hey thats just me.

Well you've come to the right place! We here are masters at ministering and sharing God's Will with those who are unable or unwilling to read the Bible the way it was intended to be read.

As Brother Redeemed has already posted, the Lord has many, many instances where He has ordered the mass slaughter of those He was unwilling to Save from eternal damnation. Are you saying that you have a problem with the Bible, or simply that your feeble human brain simply cannot comprehend the Lord's Will?

Re: Introduction

Welcome Bob. How many sons has your wife birthed on the dinning room table?

Bob, I agree, war is a terrible thing. But if all the God haters would simply die, we would no longer have to wage battle. But until that happy day arrives, I as a all American and God loving True Christian(tm), will be eliminating the foes of Jesus every chance I get. Only though the death of those that are against me am I able to express my caring and deep love for all things good.

Tell me Bob, what passage in particular upsets you. I personally find every single scintillating word to be excruciatingly delightful.

Welcome to the forum 'WeAreThePeopleofGod',

Is that the royal 'We' or are you schizophrenic?

What is your favourite Bible verse, what inspires you?
The verse that inspires me today is:

Amos 4:9
I have smitten you with blasting and mildew: when your gardens and your vineyards and your fig trees and your olive trees increased, the palmerworm devoured them: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD.

I don't like capitalizing on his name because i feel that Jesus isn't the main protraganist in the book, the people within the story that Jesus is healing or giving hope to are the real protaganists. Although Jesus was a main focus of the New testiment i still prefer the old over new, being very conservative myself. Please don't use the term cancer, my grandmother is termaly ill with a cancer.

I mean we, as if you treated the bible as a government, God is the leader of all things great, small and living; we are just the people who are there to support and help him in his leadership.

Re: Introduction

Hi, Bob. A couple of things are confusing me:

...One thing i don't get is supporting the bible and be pro-war, but hey thats just me.

...Although Jesus was a main focus of the New testiment i still prefer the old over new, being very conservative myself...

But quite a bit of the Old Testament is dedicated to war, going into minute detail of the victories that God brought to the faithful, listing the hundreds of thousands of heathen dead and instructing the Israelis in disposal of the virgin daughters of the vanquished (non-virgins and male prisoners are easier to deal with, just kill 'em all).

... Please don't use the term cancer, my grandmother is termaly ill with a cancer...

What heinous sin did she commit that God would cause her to get cancer, and why haven't you prayed for her recovery?

Yes i know, and i agree with those wars; they were in the name of God our savior and for them not repenting their heinous sins. But going to war over oil, i disagree at that point.

My grandmother has skin cancer, she didn't enjoy the idea of sunscreen. Is that a sin no, now not to be disrespectful to your position see as mine is none, i do pray for her every night and she is dieing. It seems like your making fun of her.

OT: I go to church every day, and I'm blessed with 3 sons and 1 daughter. They all go to catholic schools with mandatory bible reading and visiting the church every day. I take my family to my local church every Sunday morning.

Hello Bob,

Why are you sending your children to a Catholic school? You are greatly increasing their chances of being molested, not to mention catholics aren't going to Heaven:

(Revelation 22:18-19) "For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book."

It is much better than the sin ridden public school nearby, one time driving past i saw 2 teenagers (opposite sex) walk into a toilet holding hands, teenagers smoking near it, obscenities being said everywhere and worst of all they don't make religion classes mandatory!
I know this and i teach my children the words of god and to read the words of the bible, not whats 'between the lines' and 'what its suppose to mean'. I would never let my children be deprived of what god has said, i think what these Christians do with this is horrible. But at least at the school they are made to read the bible and attend church.

Are you insinuating that the USA has ever gone to war for less than the most righteous of reasons, friend? That's dangerous talk in these parts. Of course Saddam had weapons of mass destruction; he hid them so well they still haven't found them. Entertaining any other possibility, well, that'd be implying that Dick Cheney sometimes didn't tell the whole truth.

...My grandmother has skin cancer, she didn't enjoy the idea of sunscreen. Is that a sin no, now not to be disrespectful to your position see as mine is none, i do pray for her every night and she is dieing. It seems like your making fun of her....

I would never make fun of someone dying of cancer. A self-proclaimed "Christian" who denies that God is the cause AND cure of all diseases, ailments and infirmities, on the other hand...

Isaiah 45:7 "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things"

2 Chronicles 16:12-13 "And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the physicians. 13 And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign. "

...OT: I go to church every day, and I'm blessed with 3 sons and 1 daughter. They all go to catholic schools with mandatory bible reading and visiting the church every day...

Danger, Will Robinson!! If it's a Catholic school, it won't be a King James Bible, and what's many times worse, they might make them pray to Mary (God doesn't like that).

1 Timothy 2:5 "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;"

... I take my family to my local church every Sunday morning...

Only once a week? I'm sure your pastor would like to see more of your wallet's contents in the collection plate.

...It is much better than the sin ridden public school nearby, one time driving past i saw 2 teenagers (opposite sex) walk into a toilet holding hands, teenagers smoking near it, obscenities being said everywhere...

The Catholics are better at hiding their perversion, I'll give you that.

...and worst of all they don't make religion classes mandatory! ...

I'd think that would be better, actually. Then your pastor doesn't have to get the bad ideas (idolatry, Mary worship, cannibalism, etc.) out of their heads before replacing it with God's Truth™ as contained in the eternal King James Bible (talking donkeys, unicorns, self-resurrecting Jewish zombies, etc.)

...I know this and i teach my children the words of god and to read the words of the bible, not whats 'between the lines' and 'what its suppose to mean'. I would never let my children be deprived of what god has said, i think what these Christians do with this is horrible. But at least at the school they are made to read the bible and attend church.

Wrong Bible (as discussed above). A True Christian™ church does not include cannibalism, worship of dead people, idolatry, and litanies.

Matthew 6:7 "But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking."

Really, and what do you mean by "you don't feel"? According to the Bible itself, it was written by Almighty God and given to us so that we could know His Truth without Him having to shout all the time or continually set bushes on fire. But you feel that the book is about humans--wouldn't that make you a humanist instead of a Christian?

Although Jesus was a main focus of the New testiment i still prefer the old over new, being very conservative myself.

Well, you get points for originality, at the very least. Most of the so-called Christians we get here seem to get worked up over practices and instructions detailed in the Old Testament that tread on their liberal ideals and delicate sensibilities. But for someone who calls himself conservative you sure shrug off a great many heretical tenets espoused and practiced by the Catholic Church. And sending your precious children into such a house of sin? Better to keep them home and school them yourself.

Please don't use the term cancer, my grandmother is termaly ill with a cancer.

So? My mother had cancer and when people use that word I don't fall apart. But my grandmother did die and I was very fond of her. So please don't use the word, "grandmother".

I mean we, as if you treated the bible as a government, God is the leader of all things great, small and living; we are just the people who are there to support and help him in his leadership.

Now, that explaination is as clear as mud. Frankly, I would say that you have Multiple Personality Disorder, but Bible believers know that's that just ignorant talk for demons.


Matter-of-factly Yours,
