OK,
I checked 28882.
It's the same as the one I just answered to.

This thread goes too fast and who knows how much stuff I miss.
This time I went thru one by one but I can't Always do this.
It's just that I couldn't sleep and decided to do this instead of watch a movie.
OK. So we're good.

Joe,

I read the post but quite frankly, I don't really understand it.

I'm here because there is incorrect teaching going on that is detrimental to the Kingdom of God.

Here are the two worse doctrine in the Church today:

1. Calvinism

2. Hyper Grace or easy believism

Number one distorts the character of God.
Number two distorts our relationship with God. He is made out to be our Santa Cause. He is made out to be OUR servant, not the other way around.

God is not here to serve US.
WE are here to serve HIM.

If we lose this concept, Christianity is finished.
It has held this long because the church has kept to the original tenets of this faith.
If basic beliefs, as held by every christian till recently, are lost, our very faith will be lost.

I've attempted to be serious about this but the Others on this thread only like to make snide remarks, discuss between themselves, and make a mockery out of God's word.

If YOU can be serious, I can be serious,,, if YOU want to play games, I can do the same but without the meanness.

I have no problem in stating my beliefs with ANYONE.
Good or bad.

It pains me,however, to see what goes on here by some who call themselves christian.
I just hope they're better in real life because they would otherwise make a terrible testimony.

Yes that I can agree with, people can be rather "insensitive" and not look upon "other" people's outlooks concerning God's word,and view only their view as right,which tends to go nowhere,I know God to be right,but I'm not going to force feed anyone for if God doesn't want such behavior then I don't want it,I "listen" when in bible discussion or otherwise,and "speak" only what is inoffensive(with the bible it may be unavoidable though)toward others,hatred only breeds more hatred,iniquity brings forth only wicked fruits,such things I simply "cannot" partake of,We are to be here for "learning" and "fellowship" not for "bickerings" or "seeking hurt" toward anyone,or even for "prideful boasts" such things are simply "Useless".

No more talk - you are creeping me out - hopefully Christianchat.com will have their fill of you until you are Banned. Until then I will use the Ignore list - never met someone so rude and lacking in kindness. ​Please do not respond to anything I say or I will report your post.

Hypocrisy, double-speak, and self aggrandizement are natural to some.
You will find out soon enough who they are. Sooner better than later :)

Oh.
Do you want my home address?
Would you like to come here and scold me in person?

Is that a requirement of the TOS?
I'll tell you my address if you act nice.

What was the point sweatheart?
I've forgotten and anyway YOU brought it up.

Are you surprised that Jesus spoke so frequently of the Kingdom?
Don't fret.
Most people are.
