It makes me mad when I read that the Bible advocates bad things. When children and pets were sacrificed, it was for God. How can anyone criticize doing things for God?

I completely agree, anything done in the name of the ONE TRUE God cannot be bad .

[Daisy Mae Johnson]

This is true.

If everything is predestined, then I'm sure plenty of kids were born to be sacrificed.

I mean, gosh. Not all kids are adorable and sweet. Some are bad seeds from the moment of conception.

You people sicken me.

How could doing what God wants done possible "sicken" you? We read the Bible. We believe what it says.

Children were sacrificed in the Bible. It was done in a loving way for their own good.

See these right here are the things that are stopping me from becoming a "True Christian".

You, too, could become a True Christian™ and live without sin like those of us here. I can already tell why you have not crossed the line into our wonderful world of eternity in heaven.

It is ego. You will not be humble before God like us. Just too much me, me, me.

Would you like to have personal correspondence with Pastor Zeke? Most of us here were saved by him.

No not ego, I frequently donate to charities(yes even a few baptist ones too). I'll read abit more before I make a final decision . For now I am just going to continue to sip my martini and read some more of your posts . Even if you think it is my ego you should be able to say I am a tad more polite than some of the peopls I have seen here.

I would agree, we're not always polite. Why should we suffer fools? If people are not willing to read and belive the Bible, our patience runs thin.

We are sometimes blunt because people need to hear the truth.

Is quite simple, if people don't want to hear your "truth", then this is what they will get from you



So the world must convert and be "True Christians ©" or they will perish, isn't it? They must abandon their own faith, their culture, their families and their happiness to serve a God they don't even know to make happy people who they don't know neither. Women mus abandon their jobs and getting married with men who don't love them and who don't want wives but maids, they must have 10000000000 children to be "saved". Welcome to the happy and senseless life of a Landover member

In Hell, for all eternity, for our God is a Righteous God. (John 3:18; Revelation 20:15)

It's not to make people happy, dear, it's to prevent a righteous consequence for sin (Romans 6:23).

The True Christian™ need not worry. God will replace everything lost, just like He did for Job (Job 42:12-13; Matthew 19:29)

Landover Baptist Church didn't make the rules, dear. We're just sharing them in Christian Charity.

I appreciate it so much, Sister E, that you brought up the story of Job. That story is about how God replaced the money, wife and children Job had before God killed them to make His point. The story of Job helps enrich the message of this thread.

God has, as they would say in sports, a deep bench. When he kills for whatever reason serves his purpose, he has the ability to replace. He doesn't always, but He can.

It is only people who do not understand God that make the mistake of calling him cruel.

The story of Job is one of my favorite Bible stories. In fact, this is the story that made me really think about our LORD, and that was my first step towards Salvation.

At all times, we have to follow God's will, even if that includes sacrificing our own children, or other stuff like killing heathen babies (they're such sinners) or opening stomachs of pregnant women (Hosea 13:16). God knows why He commands such things, and we have to obey at all time.

What a hateful thing to say. There is no way a woman could have 10000000000 children.

Just how many women have gone insane trying to reach the standards you set?

Why do you hate women? I could understand if you hated someone who was despicable such as evil Michael Jackson but insisting that women have 10000000000 children is NOT biblical and just too much.

Too much.

God bless.

Ugh, I don't know if you're stupid or just try to piss me off, it was an exaggeration, an hyperbole, I used 100000000 as an hyperbolic number, to represent my affirmation that you want women to have many children, like five, ten or a little more. Hyperboles are not to be taken literally, you only must understand the idea behind one. God, don't you even know the speech figures? You always say women are stupid, but you just confirmed that ignorance is a choice, not a matter of gender

Well, you forgot to mention that you didn't mean it literally. I mean, a hundred thousand babies is just plain impossible (from a human standpoint - of course, God can make it possible, if He wants). Even at the rate of 16 babies every 3 years (assuming quadruplets every 9 months), between the ages of, let's say, 15 and 51, which is 36 years (or 9 periods of 3 years each), that gives us a grand total of 144 children.

With a little bit of God's help, extending the childbearing age to 87 (not an unreasonable number, as God gave Abraham a son when Sara was in her 90's), we can double this number to 188. (Feel free to check my math, I'm doing it all in my head, without a calculator).

You always say women are stupid, but you just confirmed that ignorance is a choice, not a matter of gender

1 Corinthians 3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.

Case closed.

The Bible is such a great book. Without it we would be left to our own standards, of ethics, or crime, or "holiness" if that would even be possible. Godless savages don't seem to be getting on so well do they.

The Bible is the book for me. In it I read about God's lovingkindness and rejoice. Thank You, Jesus

Psalm 17:7 Shew thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them which put their trust in thee from those that rise up against them. KJV

From earliest records the pattern had been established, atonement using blood. Only living blood is good enough. When the Author of Life itself Himself dies, all of Creation is purged, subject to various conditions set out in The Bible. Abraham understood this; he had beed educated in holiness and responded to God's Audible Voice without hesitation.

And God was faithful

Obedience led to King David and to Jesus. In the interim were The Judges, direct conduits from God but not actually kings or lawmakers; they enforced God's Just Law.

Satan doesn't like that. Satan's standard is warped and twisted and sick.

The Bible records how God indeed showed His Marvellous Lovingkindness, saving by His Right Hand them which put their trust in Him from those that rose up against them. Judges were the highest stratum of society, the supreme example. And according to their Trust In Him, so God rewarded their promises and their actions.

Judges 12:7 And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead. KJV

Satan was sending savage barbarians to rise up against Jephthah's Israel. They would be bloody and merciless, they would chop maim and kill. Jephthah was moved to respond. He talked to God.

Psalm 145: 8-10 The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy. The LORD is good to all: and his tendermercies are over all his works. All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless thee. KJV

God listened.

Judges 11:9-11…Jephthah said unto the elders of Gilead, If ye bring me home again to fight against the children of Ammon, and the LORD deliver them before me, shall I be your head? And the elders of Gilead said unto Jephthah, The LORD be witness between us, if we do not so according to thy words. Then Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and captain over them: and Jephthah uttered all his words before the LORD in Mizpeh.

OK, so the Ammonites were told "Back off you toerags" and did they back off? No. Of course not. Satan was so into them.

Such wisdom. Thank you.

Few atheists, or even luke warm "Christians", understand this. For God to show his love, it is necessary for many children and pets to be killed. Living blood is ground zero of His love for us and ours for Him.

The invitation to give up your young children for God is the path to heaven.
