Nothing wrong with my images. If you think so, report them. You can tell Oncefallen all about turquoise.

I believe it would be wrong for a believer to deny the Trinity.
Christians cannot worship a false god.
However, if a Christian denied the existence of the Bible's teaching on the Nephilim in Genesis 6, etc., and held to another viewpoint, I would not see that as heretical exactly.

That's not how I operate. I usually strive to pray and do good for all people, including my enemies.

Baloney. That has not been your behaviour in here at all.
My past does not determine my future or what I believe right now. So no, it is not baloney. Besides, I actually prefer corned beef over bologna anyway because Reuben sandwiches on keto bread are a nice treat every now and then.

I agree with that. The JW’s, Pentecostal Oneness, and Mormons deny the Trinity.

No, please don't stop posting your artwork, sister; I and lots of others find your artwork to be very uplifting!
So there is hope that you will stop being such a hypocrite? Hallelujah!
But for today it is baloney. If you think something is so wrong with my images you should report them
and stop hiding behind pretenses of being mister nice guy. I know you are not mister nice guy.
Thank you. I know my art covers a lot of genres/styles and is very bright and bold and
colourful which some people, well, what can I say? Maybe they prefer grey and brown.
There is plenty of art out there for them too. And you know what they say: everyone's a critic.

Yes, and if some people want to be stupid about it, then the best thing to do is to try not to get upset, and just ignore their silly comments; MOST people love your artwork!
Yes. The giants in Genesis 6, the Nephilim, were the offspring of the second group of angels that rebelled against God. These angels were not the same as the first group who fell with Lucifer in Isaiah 14. Rather, they rebelled in a different way. Scripture says that the sons of God saw the daughters of men and took them as wives, producing giants in the earth (Genesis 6:1 through 4). Jude shows that these angels “kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation” and are now “reserved in everlasting chains under darkness” (Jude 1:6). Peter adds that God “cast them down to hell,” translated from the Greek verb tartaróō, referring to the place known as Tartarus (2 Peter 2:4). This identifies them as a unique second group of rebels punished immediately, unlike the demons who still roam freely.
Although the Flood destroyed the original Nephilim, Scripture plainly states that giants appeared again after the Flood. Genesis 6:4 says, “There were giants in the earth in those days and also after that.” After the Flood we find the Rephaim, Anakim, Emim, Zamzummim, and other giant clans dwelling in the land of Canaan. The spies sent by Moses encountered the sons of Anak and reported, “we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight” (Numbers 13:33). The Anakim were known for their extraordinary height and strength.
Goliath was a direct descendant of these post-Flood giant tribes. He was “of Gath,” one of the Philistine cities where the Anakim survived (Joshua 11:22). Scripture records another giant from Gath with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot (2 Samuel 21:20 and 1 Chronicles 20:6), which reflects the same corrupted hybrid traits found earlier. Goliath had four giant brothers as well (2 Samuel 21:15 through 22), showing that a surviving giant bloodline continued into David’s day.
We also see the extreme size of these post-Flood giants from Og king of Bashan. He belonged to the same broad group of giant peoples linked with the Rephaim and Anakim. The Bible records the exact size of his bed: “nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it” (Deuteronomy 3:11). Using the standard cubit of eighteen inches, his bed measured about thirteen and a half feet long and six feet wide. Even if this provided more space than the man’s actual height, it still suggests Og himself stood around ten to twelve feet tall. Since the Anakim are grouped with these same giant clans (Deuteronomy 2:10 through 11 and Joshua 11:21 through 22), Og’s stature gives us a vivid sense of the kind of giants Israel faced.
The Bible contains many incredible and supernatural events, including a talking serpent (Genesis 3:1 through 5), a talking donkey (Numbers 22:28 through 30), and an axe head that floated on water (2 Kings 6:5 through 7). In the same way, the accounts of the Nephilim, the giant tribes, and their angelic origins fit naturally within the supernatural reality Scripture reveals.

Well, I do not know about most people, but I am glad you do! The main thing about it is the Scriptural message it carries,
and some people do understand that, unlike others who only want to pick at it because they have some other beef with me.
You read a lot into Scripture that simply is not there. That is a bad habit.
Try reading the Bible sometime without all your presups and false teachers talking.
I was a addressing there physical exclusion from the promised land where by, because of there free will of the flesh going against God's will, God said 600, 000 would die in the wilderness. His chosen people.
And again God had strengthened them to obey first before passing judgment. He had also put his mercy in there heart of both strengthening mercy and affection for mercy. Like in judges 7 and Deuteronomy 7
All are called few are chosen.
Every knee will bow.
And again the rooster has called three times.

When I think of false doctrine, I think of a belief or practice that if persisted in will keep one out of heaven.

Tell Magenta I ate some apple pie earlier, thought of her, and it was so good that it was “irresistible”
While there could be more that I can recall, there are 21 things I have changed theologically on over the years. Some of these were doctrines, and some of them were my understanding of certain verses. So I am open to being corrected. If the Bible says it, then I accept what it says. But it naturally has to be in line with God’s love, logic, and goodness.
As for the reporting:
A person stealing photos of my family and posting them on the forum without my consent might warrant a report in my book.
However, while I find your pics spiritually disturbing, your pics are not offensive enough to warrant any kind of report.
It is the farthest thing from my mind. I am not even remotely tempted to do that.
There are levels of indecency, and I know it would do more harm than any kind of good.
I do strive to love and pray even for my enemies.
Why? Because Jesus told us to do that.

Will do, Bro!
