Let me introduce myself...

[The Truest Spammer]

My name is Dallas VanSolkema. I live in Byron Center, Michigan.
I attend Woodward Baptist Church every Sunday, and my favorite verse is Leviticus 18:22 also known as the "fag verse" Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

Since getting to Heaven is a competition, I wish you all the best. Maybe you can one day be as true a Christian as I.

Re: Let me introduce myself...

I think you're being a bit judgmental and hypocritical, don't you?

To say you're a truer Christian or more saved than your Brothers in Christ is a bit arrogant.

Why can't you be more like Jesus? I would ask you to reflect on Matthew 20.

20 For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.
2 And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace,
4 And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way.
5 Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.
6 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?
7 They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive.
8 So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first.
9 And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.
10 But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny.
11 And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house,
12 Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.
13 But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny?
14 Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee.
15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?
16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.

Mainly I am referring to the "Christians" who claim to live for Jesus. And even some of the "True Christians™" who are here have imperfections. God made us in His image, so if we have imperfections, we are directly insulting God's work. God is perfect, so we must make all attempts to embody His perfection.

Greetings Dallas

You must know Lance Laker then, a Godly man if ever there was one. How does your statement that 'getting to Heaven is a competition' fit in with his thoughts? As far as I remember he preached that no believer born into the family of God would ever be lost.

Indeed, but not through more Saved than thou contests. Though if it was a competition, I would say the residents of our community are by far the most Saved of anyone, but that's not important!

The important thing is to be humble like I am and follow the entire Word of God.

Please cite the Scripture that supports this assertion.

Chapter and verse.

Thank you.

How inflammatory: I doubt many will rise to your bait.

I think you are right there Brother Niles. I don't understand what he means - there is absolutely no competition to get to Heaven in our Church.
