srsly??

a guy claiming to be from another planet inhabiting a body here?
a guy who declares there are many gods, and denies the One True God?

that doesn't raise a red flag for you? of either mental illness or trolling?

if it's mental illness, ain't nothin' we can do from here but pray.
trolling, on the other hand.... :rolleyes:
Eh to each his own.

Jesus said he wasn't from here.

I didn't see the guy deny anything

Bible says there are many gods,

Demons and holy spirit inhabits body here, do they not?

Sounds like we don't even believe our own bible

TheTrueKing,

Your profile says you're unsure if you're a Christian.

I'm sure the people here would like for you to clearly understand the gospel.
If there are things you don't understand about Christ, and about salvation,
please ask questions... I'm sure people will be happy to answer them from scripture.
I don't claim any name that causes division , I'm just a follower of Christ.

Lets not jump to conclusions

I apologize my universal brother, for any assumptions i may have made, that certainly wasn't very Christian of me.

I'm am so very sorry to hear about your planet, it must have be a devastating experience for you. were there many of you saved i hope and are they all here on planet earth or did they get spread out across the galaxy/universe.
your posts talk a lot about 'the truth', would you be so kind as to enlighten us please, for we who inhabit this little rock in the universe are on the road to planet destruction as well.
how long do you live, and what is your true form of being if i may ask.

thank you Simiel for choosing this site to communicate with us, it is an honor and a privilege God has certainly blessed you with safe transport here and welcome to earth my brother as it appears that you clearly come in peace.

God bless
My Sister, I'm having trouble understanding your tone with Tintin after your initial post. :confused:

EyesOnly, that original post of mine was aimed at Simiel, not you. Just so you know.

Are you all sure that Simiel wasn't a test from Christ to see who his real followers are and not just those giving lip service.

Or do you all believe that Christ doesn't actually do that.

God bless

1) the Lord Jesus actually wasn't 'from here'

2) you didn't see enough because

3) anyone can post Bible verses... satan knows them very well, too

you

Wow, do you all understand how unchristian this kind of attitude is on so many levels. This is not how Christ teaches us to act.

Christ teaches us, when a stranger knocks to open the door, when he asks for food to feed him, when he asks for help to help him for we know not if it truly is a stranger or and angel in disguise come to test us.

If you only love those who love you, what reward is there.
If you only help those who help you, what reward is there.

Judge not.

Love thy neighbour.

Our lord and saviour has given us his teachings on how we should be acting to our fellow man.

God bless
Eyesonly,

Trying to lead Simiel to Christ was certainly a good thing to do If that was how God was leading you.

Most of us stopped taking him seriously after he claimed to be God on another thread.


Even starting a thread to keep him occupied so he wouldn't disrupt other threads was worthhwhile:)

We tend to view trolls with such annoyance that we respond negatively to those who humor them.

One drawback to doing so is that occasionally someone in real pain seeking answers is treated as a troll prematurely.

I have no problem with your approach.

Yes he did,

I just chose no to label myself. To me it makes people have certain expectations of us.

Then if we don't meet those expectations, definitely the ones the bible speak of, it looks bad on our God

YOU are the one who said in YOUR profile that YOU are unsure if you're a Christian.

The name of Christ has ALWAYS caused division.
Christ even said that.
Mat 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Mat 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.


People either accept the atonement of Christ for their own sins, or they do not.
That is what following Christ meant ACCORDING TO CHRIST.

when you truly find the spirit of the word, you will understand.

he was on here for so long because he was looking for help, but did anyone truly try to find out what path he needed to find the way to Christ,

people tend to get into a mob mentality. just like bullying the nerd at school. i'll do it just because they are doing it. then after a while the original bullies are gone and the newer ones keep on the bullying the nerd, not even knowing how it started or why, just that it was the thing to do.

God bless

Peter denied Christ before men, 3 times in one night, yet he is still considered an apostle and still quoted from the bible.
Simiel denied Christ and is banned from a Christian chat room.

Go figure!

God bless

Lets get real for a minute.

He was taking controversial and often misunderstood scriptures, the kind you find in atheist apologetic books, and quoting them AT US, in order to mock and ridicule Christianity.

THAT is what he was doing.

He wasn't listening, he wasn't seeking.
He never listened, or acquiesced, to a single thing anyone said about anything.

He was here mocking and attacking Christianity.
That isn't seeking help.
Whenever people gave him scripture, he mocked and ridiculed them.
That isn't seeking help.

Lets take a look at some scripture.
Proverbs 22:10
Cast out the scorner, and contention shall go out; yea, strife and reproach shall cease.


You see, it isn't even BIBLICAL to let a scorner come into a Christian place, and just let them cause contention, and mock, and ridicule endlessly, on and on and on. That is NOT biblical.

You can "feel" however you like.
But the Bible is very clear about these things.

And you are beautiful for caring so much for him. God bless you. :)

I think what caught Tintin off guard was that he, like me, thought you were patronizing simiel. I think there may be a time and place for patronizing, but approving his talk of other planets and intergalactic civilizations may be pandering a little too much. That said however, bringing someone to Christ by any means necessary is commendable.

I'm glad you're here, my Sister, and appreciate what you bring to the Lord's Table.

What blows my mind, my Brother, is that simiel had a rep power of 3. How did that happen?

Peter denied Christ because he was in fear of his life. simiel is not in such peril but rather he was antagonistic. Also, Peter denied Christ so that God may be glorified in that all generations may see His amazing grace.

Athiests and trolls sometimes hang around long enough to rep each other up before they get banned.

I know Simiel is banned but I think it's important to learn from this situation. I put Simiel on ignore after I browsed his profile and comments. He posted that he denied there was a Creator and a Sovereign God. Most of his posts were a direct affront to the Lord Jesus Christ. He showed an absolute disinterest in hearing the gospel or seeking the Lord.

Those of you who say that we should be Christ-like to him, here's how Christ would have handled it:
Jesus: Give up everything you have and follow me.
Rich young ruler: says nothing, chooses not to follow the Lord
Jesus allows him to walk away, does not chase after the rich young ruler to try to change his mind

Why didn't Jesus keep dialoguing with the rich young ruler? Because the man was not ready to receive Jesus.

Never did the Lord chase after people who showed no interest in Him. People came to Christ for healing, for deliverance, for the Truth, for wisdom, for help, for direction....

There are people who come onto this site who are seeking Jesus Christ. To waste time chasing after someone who proclaims there is no Sovereign God and denies the Creator, who tells you he has the truth and that Christians are in bondage is an absolute offense to the gospel.

Stop chasing after people God is dealing with on His terms. To feel sorry for them and interfere with what God is doing in their lives puts you in control of that situation. Give them over to God, pray for them, and let them walk away.

there's about 4 trolls here who haven't been banned yet. But they will be, sooner or later..

I don't gamble, but if I did, I'd wager a million dollars there are waaaaaaaaaaaay more trolls and spammers on this site than 4. :p

So god gave grace to the apostle that denied his son and we mere mortals can not find it in our hearts to give grace to Simiel.

What your missing is that if God gave grace to someone so close to his son for denying that which he knows to be true then surely those who don't know Christ at all would be given grace too in understanding that they know not

its better to never know Christ than to know him and turn away from him. If you take the words by the letter then Peter should exist no where on the grace list, but only if you understand the word spiritually as it is intended.

there are no special bi-laws to mat 10-33. Only what and how man needs to rationalize it for themselves.

God bless
