You misunderstood what was being said concerning rape. The point is about those who commit rape, NOT those who view porn and not commit rape. The entire point was those who commit rape, do indeed view porn. i never indicated that those who view porn commit rape, that is not what i said at all. Only saying that a very high percentage of those who commit sex crimes, do indeed view pornography.
what was your need to make a point, that has NO REASON then? You made a point that those who commit rape view porn. You just deliberately linked the two together. THEN you wish to reemphasize that people committing sex crimes view pornography. So, if you aren't trying to indicate porn is tied to rape, why did you tie them together?
Your statements here, make it seem as if you dropped some random observation into a chat for NO REASON AT ALL. I think you try to dodge a bullet here with pedantics.
i was talking with another who made the comment that it would be better for people to view porn, then to actually go out and commit crimes, to which i responded to that person, that those who commit sex crimes, viewed pornography. That did not stop them from committing the crimes. Then you stepped in the conversation, saying that i said all people who look at porn commit rape. To which i responded to you then, and am now responding to you.
God sent me to live at a Monastery, after living with the monks for two weeks, i was kicked out of that monastery. Apparently most of the monks there deemed it OK to look at playboy magazines. When i found this out, i knew then why God sent me there. i told them all, that if they continued to lust after women in the magazines, that they would not be accepted into the Kingdom of Heaven.
How do you know they lusted? I mean, I'm sure some did, but how can YOU condemn them? I could look at them without lusting. Just about ANY DOCTOR could as well. It's a human body. It may be beautiful, or horribly flawed, it is still just a body. Appreciating the beauty of a woman isn't a sin. NOW GRANTED I'm feeling smug in saying most looking at it are NOT just observing the beauty God put on earth, but, rather are lusting. But, not necessarily.
i know they lusted, because they all masturbated to the magazines, i did not condemn them, but He who lives in me condemned them for the lusting they did via the naked women in the magazines. OH just so you know, i never said anything at all about them having the magazines, what i said was their lusting was against God and they should cease to do that wicked thing. Was that OK by you?
Notice how you saw people doing something that would have been an issue for YOU, this lusting of women, which you obviously battle with and try to avoid any chance to lust after them, and impose YOUR sin fears on them? Sir, Who made you God?
The devil has told you that it is an issue for me. For it is not an issue with me. Pray to God that you start discerning who you are believing. You say i obviously battle with lust, How so? Because i told them they should not lust? Lol It usually is contrary to that. Preachers who view porn, usually don't condemn porn, then usually will not preach on the very thing they enjoy doing. Preachers who have wives who wear the pants in the family, don't preach concerning roles of Husbands and Wives. Lol, because i tell them they should not lust, i then according to you, have a lust issue, lol, you made me laugh, that it too funny.
Two men ate meat. One it was a sin, the other it wasn't. They lived under the same "laws" of faith. It was the same act. The one with the greater faith, had the liberty to eat the meat. It's funny, you were the one denying liberty here, yet, apparently YOU are the one that felt it was a sin, and was on the lesser faith side of the story.
i don't say it is a sin. God does. You know that lusting is a sin right? or is your voice telling you that it is OK to lust after naked women who are not your spouse, and that is OK?
The story teaches the two should not go get in each other's faces. Yet you chose the opposite. So you forsook scripture, and God's teaching to do what you felt you wanted/needed/should do. Perhaps you were sent there to learn more faith, and you failed. They didn't do things like you did, so you condemned them.
lol, you must be a young person. Are you saying that monks masturbating to Playboy Magazines, is not wrong or against God? Is that what you are saying? And your upset with me, because i addressed that wicked thing they were doing? What i did was Good and Godly, but you say otherwise, why is that?
That is exactly against scripture. YET you feel more holy for doing it. Doesn't that remind you of that verse that says,.... test those spirits.....? Yours took you away from scripture.
lol, i told them to stop lusting after the magazine, and you say i wrong for saying to stop lusting. lol. When you have read the Bible over 80 times, maybe then you will have some understanding of the Word of God. Who told you i feel more Holy for doing it? i never said that, that comes from you and your own thinking, which is in error, For i have never thought i was Holy because i do that which i am told to do. Is it not written that if you do Good all the time, you are only doing what you are suppose to do. It does not make one Holy because they do that which they are told to do. A person is Holy through Jesus Christ who helps them to overcome sin in their life.
Instead of repenting and getting rid of the magazines, they got rid of me. But i did what i was instructed to do, and i warned them.
So, God instructs you to do things against the Bible's teachings.
Heavens no, God instructed me to go there. i did, and when i seen that most of those monks were lusting and masturbating to playboy magazines, i then brought it to their attention that lusting and masturbating to those magazines was against God, and they should cease to do so. What then? You would have done differently, please tell what you would have done, if God led you there, and you seen that wickedness was going on there, what would you have done, NOTHING, maybe, Or would you say something, when the Holy Ghost is telling you to warn them against that sin. What would you do? Because apparently what i did, through God, is not what you would have done, so then pray tell, what would you have done to try to help them cease from a sin that will prevent them from entering into the Kingdom of Heaven.
What you did was the equivalent of Gideon calling the army back, re arming them and charging with weapons and shields instead of 300 with crock pots and bugles. You took judgement into your own hands, and concluded most self righteously that you were doing God's work and did what God instructed NOT TO DO, but you did it for HIM. AND NOW you use that story to show me how much holier you are.
i will pray for you, that you receive the Holy Ghost, so that you too will have the desire to help people to cease from doing things that will prevent them from going to Heaven. If you see somebody committing a sin, and they are not ceasing from it, and you know it will prevent them from going to Heaven, if you loved them, you would say something to them, if you did not love them, you would say nothing at all. This generation says nothing at all to those who continue to live in sins, because they do not love them, if they did, they would warn them to cease from whatever it is they are doing, so they can go to Heaven. i will pray for you to receive the Holy Spirit of God.
Even as i warn all those who read this as well, if you continue to look at pornography and lusting via that pornography, you likewise will not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, because you are not willing to give up that stuff for Jesus Christ. You put that, before Him.
And I will tell everyone, if you wanna know why you have such a hard time witnessing to people and getting them to listen, it's because most of the Church takes GOD'S job into their own hands and judges man on earth. A THING EVEN JESUS THE CHRIST said HE could not do. And when their actions, which they defend loudly and proudly, go against the book they claim to represent, the whole faith becomes farcical. And every person of the faith who comes to them later, is assumed to be the same person as the one who was loudest and proudest.
You do error in thinking it is me that is doing the judging, it is the Word of God that is doing the judging. i judge nothing, but what the Word of God says is sinful, is sinful. So then if i tell a person if they continue to have a sexual relationship with another, not being married to them, they commit fornication. i am not the one judging them, but the Word of God is judging them, because it is plainly written that no fornicator shall inherit the Kingdom of God. i don't say they will not enter into Heaven, the Word of God says they will not enter into Heaven, therefore it is not me who is judging them not going to Heaven, but the Word of God plainly teaches they will not go to Heaven. So then because i love that person and want that person to go to Heaven, so i will say to that person, please stop fornicating, because if you don't, you will not go to Heaven according to the Word of God. i loved those monks, if i didn't, i would have said nothing at all, and just let them continue to live in their sins. But because i love them, i warned them to stop doing those things that are displeasing to God. Yet you disagree with what i did, what does that say?
Again, Truly i will pray for you, i fear you are not listening to the Holy Ghost, if you were, then you would know that what i am saying is from Him.
