@LadyGrace Why threaten about a comment like that. God is the judge, as you say, not you. They have not had your personal intimate experiences, so let them be. Before your experience, what would you have said?
@Zeusdelight That would be true if I said it, but it's in God's word. I haven't criticized or threatened anyone. I stated exactly what God said in His Word, he won't have it. It doesn't matter or have anything to do about my experience. Anyone can have God save them like I did. Everyone has their own unique experience but this is not about my experience or anybody else's. I was only commenting what God said. There's not a thing wrong with that. God is saying that anyone that mocked him will have to answer to him. That's a fact and he told everyone that. That's not a condemning statement that God made. It was a statement of caution so they don't make that mistake. There's a big difference. He didn't say oh you're going to go to hell if you do this or do that. No. He only said that our sins need to be forgiven so that we can enter Heaven. I don't want to be labeled as something I'm not.
@SledgeHammer I'm really surprised. 😄

Ok, I understand your point and it is very well made.

However, you, I assume, have been privileged with a personal encounter with God, in whatever form, many haven't.

To me, to experience him is to be able to fall in Love with Him.

To intellectually know of him or to have heard of him is not the same?
@Zeusdelight no sir. Unfortunately, only God knows their heart if they are truly Christians or not, but if they truly new Jesus as Savior, they would never damn people. No matter who it is in the world who follows Christ, if they are dedicated and truly loved him, they will reflect his behavior. We are not to judge anyone. It really really upsets me when they do this because for those who truly art in the Lord, it also reflects bad on them and then people just don't even want to hear it. And I can't blame them. The Christians that I know and I know many many many over the years, have never damned people. That's just purely of the devil. Jesus told his followers to go and tell people how they can get to heaven, not to force them. I put my stuff out there and share it, and people can make up their own minds. But that doesn't mean I don't love them as much as I do anyone else. I'm certainly not Superior. I just avoid people like that. To me they are false teachers and well frankly, they seem to be following Satan than God because God would never do that. Even when Jesus taught in his day, never once did he damn people. And God said in his word that people who do that, will be accountable to him. He really hates that because when they turn people away from Christ, well, God has lost another soul.

@LadyGrace But he loved us all even us to reject him, free will.
@Zeusdelight He sure does. It says in the Bible God loves The Sinner himself, meaning as a person, but not their sin. But that doesn't mean that everyone accepts his love. If someone gives you a birthday gift, you have to reach out and get it. If you receive it, that means you accept it. Same thing with God. He's not going to give the privilege of heaven, to someone who just treats his death and suffering flippantly, like trash, and sees no worth in how much he suffered for us on the cross. He paid too high a price to just give it away to people who could care less. He didn't have to die on the cross for us. He could have let us all go to hell. But instead, he [b]volunteered[/b] to pay for our sins. He wasn't thinking of himself. He was thinking of us when he hung on the cross.

With free will, if we want to have a relationship with him, just like you would anyone else, you would address them and talk to them. Unless we do that, God is not going to go against our will. Were you able to read my whole article? You will see exactly where I stand on that.
