Should we laugh when we see abominations? Or should we cry, and sigh? [h=1]Ezekiel 9:4-6King James Version (KJV)[/h]4 And the Lord said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.
5 And to the others he said in mine hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity:
6 Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house.

I would be interested in knowing what abominations you saw people laughing at and I would also like to know if the people who were laughing were supposed to be Christians?

I am just going to stop posting, because everyone just wants to attack everything! I will be closing my account here at CC too! I come as a learner, and I get grief...I will go back to 119 ministries! Maybe it was wrong to try to learn here, my apologizes!

Stick around Sandy. Most of us get fed up occasionally but we shrug it off and continue on. You have a lot to offer. Please reconsider.

I would just like to see the battle axes laid down...I have already claimed so many times, that I had been led astray by false prophets..I just wanted to learn, and I don't like it when my questions become tools for war! I can get that else where, just walk out my door..I thought this place might be a safe haven! I am so sorry, I am in just too many tears right now!

Sandy, visit the Speak Your Mind thread in the Bible Discussion Forum. It is very warm and friendly there and very much like a safe haven.

Jesus cried. He wept over jerusalem because of their sin, He wanted to take them under his arm, but they loved their abominations more.

Anyone who laughs at an abomination has serious issues, if they call themselves Christian they definitely need some strong counseling ..

Actually I thought Embers question was sincere and valid. I had the very same questions myself. Seems as if you are being hypersensitive.

HOw are people attacking you, Sandy? The question Ember asked is what I was thinking to, what are these things you have seen? Things are not black and white and of course you have to read verses in context as well. Another point is that you are being too cryptic by not asking question directly, instead of saying "What does this verse mean", you bring up that you have seen people laughing at abominations and should we really be laughing at them, this also can come across as having a hidden agenda.

I don't believe anyone is attacking you. People on CC tend to ask and question others quite often.
Some of your post that I have read are kinda hard to follow. Just from the way you word things. You don't really explain your point very well. (I do the same thing lol)
They question you not to put you down but to better understand what point you're trying to make.
Stick around, you'll get use to it and over time you'll be able to pick up on how people are. It took me a bit to figure out the difference between them being "rude" or "blunt"
Alot of it is just misunderstanding.
Personally, I think alot of people here have been rather nice to you. :)

Maybe you're over reacting?
Stay a little long and get to know people a little better.

I'll be honest, the question she asked is the same question that came to my mind when I read the OP. Don't take offense to it please. We are just wanting a better understanding of what you're saying. It's not intended to put you down in any way.

sandy,

you are old enough to understand that those who have posted to you are simply seeking
understanding,,, something I'm sure you are very familiar with...

why you would take offence is a personal matter, and one that you would do well to examine and
investigate - for you have definitely over-reacted to brethren who are simply curious about your
posting, and there is obviously no un-kindness involved that we can see....

to take this 'one' post and make it your catalyst to want to leave those of us who have come to
enjoy many of your other posting and your inquiring mind, not to mention the sharing you have
done with us about different aspects of your life and Faith....this does seem rather selfish on your
part....for those of us who have opened our hearts to you....

PHIL.1:9-10.
And this I pray, that your love abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment,

That you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offence
till the Day of Christ,.....

im sorry its all fault for not telling
that their is something beyond our imagination that cannot be explained!
last night (in our time)
there was also a war happenning, not by the flesh but by the spirits.

most of people in our place do not believed from what they call evil spirits
but they intend to believed in the spirits brought only by god!

please anyone here, tell all this things
that this world was been corrupted by evil forces unknown to me and you
all that i've said is true, no more no less.

you have a faith that can never be diminished by man or anything that was
made in the form of flesh!

dont fall back!
they just trying to make you more stronger in the way that you wont realize that
you become hard as steel before knowing what happens
if you pass the trial of sincerity from within.

be sincere to your faith
after that, the good works and still there is more to come
in order to received the gift that is within you.

observed those things which is spiritual,
1 Corinthians 12:3
Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of Elohim says יהושע is a curse, and no one is able to say that יהושע is Master except by the Set-apart Spirit.
'try to translate it from other versions of the holy bible
and hope youll find the answer
for nothing comes by with just snapping our finger :smoke: for humans that is

For myself, there's nothing funny or amusing about people who commit abominations against God. The end result may very well be the Lake of Fire, and those who chuckle over that probably ought to be thrown in too... Wouldn't that be a hoot? :)
