Tell me, why is it that those who claim TO SEE CHRIST need to resort to name calling in a discussion ? I would think they would be so much better behaved than that dc. You never did answer my question relating to this. Why do you claim to being led by God, yet resort to such nasty name calling as you sometimes do ?

So, let me ask you a question. Say a man is saved and has been a preacher for 30 years. Then he decides he is an Atheist and begins to preach Atheism. Now, do you think that man has fallen from grace OR do you believe he is still saved while he is preaching and believing in Atheism ? Think about it. This is where God can remove a man's name from the book of life, hence REVELATION 22:18-22:19. So you contend the man now preaching Atheism to the world is still saved ?

I believe the WORD:


1 John 2:19 (HCSB)
[SUP]19 [/SUP] They went out from us, but they did not belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us. However, they went out so that it might be made clear that none of them belongs to us.

Take it from a guy that got kicked out of his mother's house because his mother blamed him for her boyfriend leaving out the door and her mind snapping in a fit of trying to "cope".

Yes I understand, I was being flippant.....many years back I worked with teenagers that lived on the streets ...broke my heart, had to leave that job. :(

I agree when someone is lashing out there is a reason, bad home life can be a trigger.

YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT ANY OF US BELIEVE.
So you had better get to know us, before you SPEAK.

Matthew 5:22 (KJV)
[SUP]22 [/SUP] But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.


BESIDES!


Mark 3:28-29 (HCSB)
[SUP]28 [/SUP] I assure you: People will be forgiven for all sins and whatever blasphemies they may blaspheme.
[SUP]29 [/SUP] But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin”—


There I go, opening the door, to HEAR another false interpretation of what is blaspheming the Holy Spirit.

That scene was equally as crazy,her boyfriend left out the door and then for some reason instead of playing my video game I decided to "emphatize" with her as I typically tried to do (mom was with many boy friends) and she threatened that I had to leave,I kept the apt key until I could move some of my stuff out and then she sought a domestic case against me had to pay a court fine even though later she dropped the case before I was finished paying it and now she messages me everyday saying that she trusts me forever,I guess you could say I have "unintentionally" had to deal with "mentally ill" people most my life and so I've "learned" what signs to look for in mental break downs.

Thankfully I didn't end up on the street,but between my bipolar uncle,depressed and lazy father,and my extrovert nagging aunt it's not much of a "better life" by comparison.

Why don't you READ instead of being "an accuser of the brethren"

Okay, that one I really had to laugh out loud at. You've been doing that very thing since you got here. You've only been on CC a few days and you've damned most of us to hell.

You've missed the whole point! The baptism JESUS is referring to is Holy Spirit baptism which gives "POWER" (Acts 1:8) to perform the MIRACULOUS "SIGNS FOLLOWING" mentioned in Mark 16:17-18! Without "CONFORMATION" (Mark 16:16-20) of these "SIGNS FOLLOWING" one is "DAMNED" (Mark 16:16) and not "SAVED!"

Okay. Well, if you can heal why aren't you clearing out the hospitals? Why aren't you going to the graveyards and raising the dead? Why aren't you controlling the weather and stopping hurricanes and tornadoes? Read John 14:12 and tell me why you aren't doing these things.

Can't you even "know the thoughts" of people as Jesus did?

Tell me what my middle name is and I'll believe whatever you say.

You have been through a lot, :( it is true when we have experienced people in that downward spiral, we do recognize that state of mind in others.

Joefizz you inspire..truly you do!! ;)

Yes, thank God you did not end up on the street.... living on the street is horrible, the things I learned, I wish I never knew, I cannot even think about them.

Well, you are much appreciated here on CC!!!:) we need your sense of humour.

See you DON'T KNOW TRUTH when you DENY what JESUS SAID you're ALREADY "blotted out" (Mark 16:16-20; I Corinthians 12:7-10;13; Acts 1:5; 8) because JESUS SAID "...he that believeth NOT shall be DAMNED." (Mark 16:17)!

Tell me about I think that's why I often make the joke that I'm "old" because from what all I've been through from toddler age on up to now it's truly a wonder I'm still alive considering I have epilepsy along with nearly everyday stress just another reason that I believe God exists because it has to be that he wants me alive for "some purpose" that's all I could figure after all these years.

Woman! What part of the bible does it say that God uses human to judge? How can flesh judge flesh? If he sent human to judge what's the point of the judgement day and it means you're equal with God cause only God can judge and you being given the task of judging others makes you equal with God.
I can clearly rember jesus telling his disciples to go into the world and preach the gospel and baptize men with the holy spirit. He didn't say go into the world and judge men of their iniquities neither did he say baptize men with the holy spirit and judge does that do not.

JESUS didn't tell anyone to "drink a glass of pure bleach" (Isaiah 8:20) nor did HE say go "take up a serpent!" ACCIDENTS (Acts 28:3)!

You need to read Proverbs 6:16-19 and learn something because you're about to cross the wire!
