I Respect Honesty and Integrity

Repent of your sins and believe the Gospel! Surely, if you believe in your heart that Jesus died for you & confess with your mouth that He is Lord, you will be saved! Christ chose death that you might have life! He laid His life down that you might live! He became poor that you might be rich! He became a curse, that you might be sons and daughters of the Most High, Princes and princesses of the Heavenly King!
Hell is no joke! It is no place to be! It is the reward of the wicked! Repent and your sin would not have power over you that you should be labelled as one of these lots - "wicked". It is prepared for the devil & His angels, along with all manner of unrighteousness.
Broad is the way & wide is the gate that leads to destruction, and many follow it; narrow is the way that leads to life and, sad but true, few take it.

The day of judgement shall come! The day ALL your 'good' works - which do not even equate to half your bad works - will come to noth. One shall be considered righteous before God BY FAITH IN THE SON OF GOD ALONE & OBEDIENCE OF GOD'S LAW.
Yes, by faith, and faith alone, is the Christian saved; however, a christian who has nothing to show as proof for His salvation is no saved individual at all. A good tree bears good fruit & a bad tree bears bad fruit! So also, a saved Christian begins striving to be more like Christ, & his/her works, which are godly, are automatically shown - as they then are a 'everyday life' activity - which in themselves are an evidence of a change in Him - a soul which indeed has been saved.

On that day of judgement, it shall be either of 2 prevalent things. It is either you shall be part of the lots whom Christ shall address saying: "I came for you; I suffered for you; I was wounded, persecuted, and beaten for you; I left mine abode for you; I died for you! You heard my Gospel and all I did for you, yet you spat on my face. I offered you a way out of the wrath you so rightly deserve but you chose instead to dwell in your sin; you chose death. Therefore, that which you have asked, I shall give to you. Into the fire!"
OR you shall be of the ones whom Christ shall address saying: " I came for you; I suffered for you; I was wounded, persecuted, and beaten for you; I left mine abode for you; I died for you. You heard my Gospel and all I did for you, and you repented and surrendered to me. You walked in obedience to the Fear of God, and taught the gospel. You are my brethren, and here is your crown of life. Sit upon your throne, and rejoice in the glory of our God and Father. You have done well."

For it is people who (will) send themselves to Hell and not necessarily God.

You reading this, and wrestling conviction, refrain from such! Is it worth it that you should gain the world but lose your soul??!
PRIDE! Surely, it was pride which brought about Lucifer's fall - for He thought Himself greater than God albeit, God crushed Him & His cohorts - AND IT IS PRIDE WHICH HARDENS THE HEART OF MAN FROM REPENTANCE. REPENT OF YOUR PRIDE, PEOPLE! FORSAKE IT! Those puffed up by knowledge and those who choose to justify their ungodliness.
Indeed, the heart of man is utterly wicked & desperate to do evil. We are all wretched sinners, from birth, and are worthy of just wrath for deciding instead to frolick in sin. A child is not taught to lie before he lies, and neither does he observe how to; but this he is taught to do; to speak truth.

Rebuke the devil, in the name of the Lord, and He will flee from you! FLEE from your sin! Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand!
Jesus loves you, that us why He died for you! Repent now whilst grace is yet made available for you FOR THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS OF SINS IN THE GRAVE.

Humble yourselves before God & turn to Him. Surely, those who believe in His son will be saved, for salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone.

Please, my loved ones - which is YOU ALL - repent. God loves you.

God bless you.

I have read and do read the Bible; you should learn to grasp it.

Your claim that believers are instructed to do horrific acts to non-believers (because they do/did not share our belief) is an utter lie.
Consider honesty, sir.
What you so try - and I use that term loosely - to speak of is the accounts of God's orders to the Israelites towards certain wars. These battles were not for the fact that they did not believe in the same God; infact, God, through out the whole testament, did not so much as instruct them to kill persons because they did not acknowledge Him. I am ready to be stood corrected if you can prove other than I have stated.

Yet this ancient WORK OF MAN contains in it prophecies which came to pass and are coming to pass; talks perfectly, though briefly, of things in space (constellations & so on); speaks about dinosaurs, which according to science were extinct millions of years ago - this same science acknowledges that the Bible is no greater than 2000 years old. I wonder how those men knew about dinosaurs then, seeing that the greatest advancement of technology in their days was a ballista and wheel cart. Do not forget, sir, that these men, just as all christians make the claim that the earth is only about 4000 years old); et cetera.

Wow! These men must have either never died and lived through the age of the dinosaurs, not meeting death till they had written their ancient book. Wow. Such wonder of evolution.

The Bible was written by men inspired of God and not out of their own/personal reasoning. "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work."

.

No, we are not "holier than thou" and neither do we ascribe ourselves as such; it is you and lots as you who do so, sir. We, just as you, are sinners, but the only difference between us and unbelievers is that we have been saved, by faith in Christ Jesus, through grace. A thing I do not expect you to understand.

.

Again, sir, your ignorance is made evident, just as the light of the day. No sinner will make it into Heaven; all who fail to repent of their sins - paedophiles, hypocritical christians, & so forth - will be cast into hell, just as they requested.

.

If you had knowledge of scripture then you'd know that after the judgement, a new earth will be made - one free of all imperfection (sin) - and no longer would the saved ones dwell in Heaven but on earth, as one family under God, with Christ as king over us, living daily with fulness of joy in the Father's presence.
Again, I do not expect you to understand, seeing as you have drawn you heart far away from understanding.

.

Lol. Now this is how you highly discredit yourself. You say that the accounts of the Bible are not true when yet it has been historically, geographically, and prophetically proven to be accurate to the dot. You do not know because you do not search on this. Do not suppose, sir, that every christian does not actually study to see the truth in what it is he follows; and not only have I found the accounts of the Bible to be truth, my faith is further affirmed by the Holy Spirit in me.
But you do not know who this Spirit is, do you?

"Those who contend that the record of the Lord’s virgin birth takes its rise out of a heathen background, simply are not informed relative to this topic. Or else, from a personally biased agenda, they choose to distort the facts.." <-- well phrased.
You are wrong in your claim, sir - very - As to how I might best explain, I think, is less compared to how it is explained on this site. Saves the time of having to write for long even. Phew; thank goodness.

Indeed, religion is as you've said it is; fortunately Christianity is not religion, but a relationship; a relationship between God and man, as Father and child.
