Paul took the following words very seriously

But when the Jews opposed Paul and became abusive, he shook out his clothes in protest and said to them,
"Your blood be on your own heads!
I am clear of my responsibility.
From now on I will go to the Gentiles."
Acts 18:6

When I say to a wicked man,
'You will surely die,'
and
you do not warn him or speak out to dissuade him from his evil ways in order to save his life,
that wicked man will die for his sin, and
I will hold you accountable for his blood.

But if you do warn the wicked man and
he does not turn from his wickedness or
from his evil ways,
he will die for his sin;
but you will have saved yourself.

Ezek 3:18-19

But you have assumed that the LORD will take TT before any of us , how can you assume such thing...Can you please explain this , it comes across as if you are on par with God Almighty...
No one has the right to presume such things , we are warned about being presumptuous in the bible , this is not your place to say such thing...xox...

There is a kind of foolishness being spoken here.
We stand in throne room of the heavenly Father and He hears and sees everything.
Nothing escapes His gaze, yet unbelievers are under the delusion He sees nothing.

Do you not know this is the Word of God, I am merely a follow and disciple.

Interesting question.
I am not saying this will happen. Do you have no understanding?

When someone is seriously ill and possibly at their last, will you remain silent, because
though this maybe their last, you do not want to share what needs to be shared?

How many fall into hell each day because who are we to say they stand under the judgement of God?

This is our calling, to warn the lost and those in need.

I have lost many who I would have loved to share more with.
But I will speak rather than remain silent because I love them deeply.

notice, he refuses to see his own distasteful comment as a bad thing, then pivots and compares himself to Paul chastising the Jews , because they rejected the Gospel.

many of us are choosing not to interact with him and any who do non-sense like this.

and this is why.

I went to the funeral of a lady who was bitter to her last breadth.

I had spent hours listening to her bitterness year in year out.
The people at the funeral said their thoughts were I pray we do end up like this.

It was like a root of bitterness had taken over and eat her soul.
It is Jesus who is the light of life and love.

Do you guys not believe this or only anger at feeling unresolved evil deeds clanking
around like chains around your ankles, a heavy load crushing you to the ground.

But my friends Jesus came to set you free from the ankle chain and take the load
off your back, because He can heal and change you if only you would believe this
is possible and put your trust in Him, Praise the Lord.

And the light that will dawn can never be diminished or stamped out, glory to God

Is the truth distasteful to you? Would you rather someone go to hell and burn in torment forever,
or to bring them the words of life, healing and eternity with Christ?

It is obvious some are more interested in social niceties than blasphemy, heresy, judgement and true liberty.

"compares himself to Paul chastising the Jews"

To those with eyes and ears.
If you know the truth, and God condemns someone and you know, and you do not warn
them, God will hold you accountable for His judgement.

A fool will say, oh I do not know God or this warning, so it means nothing to me.
But then a fool does not know God or His word and himself is doomed to judgement.

But read Ezekiel as I have quoted, and then know the God who you serve.

When I say to a wicked man,
'You will surely die,'
and
you do not warn him or speak out to dissuade him from his evil ways in order to save his life,
that wicked man will die for his sin, and
I will hold you accountable for his blood.

But if you do warn the wicked man and
he does not turn from his wickedness or
from his evil ways,
he will die for his sin;
but you will have saved yourself.

Babbling nonsense from you....

My brother in Christ you are assuming will die sooner than anyone else here is known by God and doesn't need the toxic garbage you spew....

He trusts in his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to justify him....

you however seem to trust yourself

Apart from the serious nature of this discussion and the intent to mock the transformation God
brings to our hearts, which is truly foolish and damnatory to mock, because it is our only hope,
I like the transformer movies, though obviously childish, it is just a funny romp.

It makes me think, the transformation of our hearts brothers and sisters is the work of the
Holy Spirit. It is uniquely part of being in the Kingdom, it is our life blood, the very connection
we have with our King, Christ reigning within.

The unforgivable sin, is a sin against His work. Is there a deeper sin or foolishness than to blaspheme
the work in ones own life or even in another. It is more like spiritual suicide.
And those who have suicided themselves they are happy to do this to as many as they can around them.
They will never know, because there is nothing left that can be done. They probably think what they have
is what it all is.

It would explain why nothing echoes or seems to resound with these folk.

Hi NoNameMcgee,

Who lives in you? There is a spirit that hurls abuse and such confusion.
You talk "toxic garbage" while speaking it.

If you think I trust myself, you do not know me or my Lord.
I do not know TT, so I cannot say where he is. From our contact, he considers me an enemy.
And it is this that speaks of whatever is in his heart, like the words you use.

Jesus said this which is my simple response,

As for the person who hears my words but does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save it. There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; that very word which I spoke will condemn him at the last day. For I did not speak of my own accord, but the Father who sent me commanded me what to say and how to say it.
John 12:47-48

Love in Christ just walks. It is not part of the battle you are trying to fight.
If you do not listen to Jesus, then it just waits until we meet Him in the clouds.

God bless you, may He bring to you the revelation of the cross and His walk of love.

What were the names of the previous accounts you used to post on Christianchat with?

You must be referring to how we are born again.

There is the life we are to live after we are born again.

Please share the scriptures you are referring to.

NoNameMcgee please go to a church, and start to focus on discipleship and following the Lord.
These forums are full of retired and old people, some who are truly bitter and twisted beyond hope.

You will find real people of God and a blessing.
I know how toxic these places are, and how one can end up destroying good things in ones life.
Jesus is wonderful, and His gospel the walk of life and love. God bless you.

At church I help do the projector for the verses, often an underrated ministry in the body.
Worship and dwell in Christ, and much that is evil and sinful will be seen in a different light.
His word is sharper than a two edged sword.

So dwell in it.

calling people old, twisted and bitter.

the fruits of the sprit are flowing like a river today.

not the Holy Sprit of course, but some sprit.

I don't need some deceptive individual who peddles false doctrine to tell me how to live.

You claim you don't know TT, and say he will most likely be the first here to die....

Then you act as if this is a good work...

You ignore the questions of others and babble about this and that posting out of context scriptures and accusing others of not knowing Christ.

You even thought matthew 19 is an example of a man who keeps all the commandments....

You do not seem to understand the bible whatsoever....

I only see disingenuous counterfeit love, sly remarks, subtle accusations and false doctrine from you.
