No man has the right to interpret Gods Word. God said what He meant. He never tells us it is OK to twist His words. The Holy Bible is not just some random collection of the Greatest Stories Ever Told. It is a precise guidebook for the management of man and all that there is.
Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.

Deuteronomy 12:32 What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.

Proverbs 30:5 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.
Proverbs 30:6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.

Matthew 4:4 Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

Romans 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

James 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

Revelation 22:18 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:
Revelation 22:19 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.

Re: Hello

Exactly, God is like the CEO of the "company" called Universe. I am nothing but a servent and when I am given orders I shall execute them, yesterday when I registered I could only do it in 5 minutes then I had some classes to attend to.

I don't "wake, masturbate, inject some pot and demand your mother make breakfast" I am an Informatic Engeneering student, I wake up, prepare, go to classes then I go home make lunch... etc...

I did not capitalized God and the Holy Bible because I was in a real rush and it was a massive typo.

But let's start over again.

My name is Rui
I am 22 years old
I am male

I currently don't belong to any Church, I was baptized in a Catholic one but I didn't fit in it.

Friend, God took the time to Create you. Show Him His due respect.
The day will come and trust me, it will come, when you need God. Do you think He should be there? Or do you think He'd be better off gazing down at Hell, giggling at the souls be tormented? What reason should he have for lifting a single finger for you?
Let me put this in a manner you people from third world countries can relate to. You spend your entire day, watching a meerkat, planning how to catch it. You ignore God, ignore the fact that He provides to those that give Him His due. Finally, you spring your trap to catch the creature. Nothing. Your neighbor has a fully belly of meerkat. You ask how did he get it. He tells you God gave it to him. He shows you the bloodied head. It was the head your were studying. You see friend, the time you spend studying would be better spent praising God. By praising God, He will provide.
You need to get your priorities straight friend, before you starve.

Amen to that!

Re: Hello

This is true, but somehow many false Christians only look at the positive part of that message. John 3:18 is more explicit which makes it much harder to misinterpret. Therefore many false Christians quote John 3:16 but ignore John 3:18.

Re: Hello

Exactly my point:

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

It may not add that everyone else is doomed, but we can clearly see that only those who believe shall not perish, it is only logical that the ones who don't believe will perish.

Re: Hello

The significant part of John 3:18, that isn't in John 3:16, is that unbelievers are doomed (will burn in Hell).

Many false Christians only focus on the fact that God is nice to those who believe in Him, worship Him and obey His every command. They ignore the parts of the Bible that teach us everyone else is doomed and will burn in Hell. Including unborn children, demented elders and Obama voters.

Re: Hello

I don't see how one contradicts other, I was asked for my favorite quote and I provided it. After all they both say the same thing, John 3:18 only gets in more detail

Re: Hello

Isn't it odd that people often quote John 3:16, but seem to have no understanding of John 3:18? After all, it's on the same page.

Odd.

Oh Rui is just like Roy

I am not fat, and even if I was the doors here are enought to get through
And no, English is not my main language

"What is your favorite Bible verse?"

God runs EVERYTHING.

He is not like you, where all you have to do is wake, masturbate, inject some pot and demand your mother make breakfast.

Hi, sweetie. Just a question: why do you call yourself "TheChristian?" You clearly aren't a Christian, otherwise you would have known the Bible, and that God and Bible should be capitalized.

You seem to know a lot about God for saying you claim to know little.

Are you making this stuff up?
