Hi

[Floridian Christian]

This is my introduction to landover baptist. I've been going to church 3 times a week for as long as I can remember so I decided why not join a baptist forum.

You guys seem to be a bit rough but you're only following the bible I see

Dear Friend,

Welcome. Have you ever rubbed Gov. Rick Scott's shiny bald head for luck? I sat next to him at a fundraiser once and the glare was intolerable.

Yours in Him,

No? That is...

Strange.

Never been to Tallahassee actually so never had a chance I guess but I wouldn't even if I had the chance.

OK, but you know what I mean about the glare, right?

Look at this lady squint in this picture!

Re: Hi

for luck?

I dont want to burn my bridges but it has been well instilled in me that the Bible is against luck.

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

we can deduce from this that only resisting sinful acts may we be in Gods grace, certainly not rubbing any heads for luck! there is no such thing as luck only Gods will.

Oh, pish. The apostles cast lots when they wanted to decide who to take the place of Judas among the apostles. Acts 1:26. They trusted in a game of luck to reveal the will of God. Go teach your grandma to suck eggs (and completely mark her ballot).

we can deduce from this that only resisting sinful acts may we be in Gods grace...

Actually, the converse. Only by the grace of God can we resist sinful acts. Our resisting sinful acts does not somehow entitle us to God's grace. Ephesians 2:8. Are you sure you've been to church before? Maybe it was a Universalist Unitarian prayer yurt?

Yours in Him,

Re: Hi

What a great verse. I just love Isaiah 45.

You seem like the good sort. How many future Republicans has your wife borne you?

Oh?

(Ecclesiastes 9:11) "I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all."

Dear Brother,

Actually, this "Christian" is a woman. Who has somehow missed 1 Timothy 2:12.

I do not take with any political parties, there is no point because by the time I am old enough to vote the America we know is going to be not a democracy, but a theocracy under God.

I don't quite understand what that verse is trying to say, it's pretty confusing. What chance happeneth to them all?

Amen. I like you. That's a nice sentiment, but we need God's Own Party to accomplish that.

You see, we believe the constitution is a sacred document second only to the Bible. Since the days of Reagan we have wholeheartedly supported the Republican Party. They mention Jesus a lot more than those demoncrats.

By us controlling the GOP primaries, we can move this once great nation to theocracy through (probably) peaceful means.

I hope that makes sense to you.

A hearty welcome to you, young lady! Why don't you post a picture of yourself so we'll be able to put a name to the face.

I like being able to visualize a person when I'm praying for her!

Yeah it makes perfect sense.

Well thats hardly reasonable, it'd be like me showing you my ASL homework and saying eventually you will understand it ( but you never will...)

There is one on my account I believe.

Re: Hi

me showing you my ASL...

Please keep your ASL to yourself.
