Your beetles in Canada must be a lot bigger than the ones here.
Betelgeuse is a red supergiant star found in the constellation of Orion that lies 700 light-years from Earth.
It is believed to be roughly 1,400 times larger than our sun and 14,000 times more luminous. The massive
star is 1 billion miles (1.6 billion kilometers) in diameter. Its radius is thought to be around a thousand times
greater than the sun and would reach beyond the orbit of Jupiter if it was placed at the center of our solar system.


Well, our beetles are not ^ THAT ^ big!!! .:unsure::giggle:

That star still pales in comparison to Jesus.

My thread questions are very self explanatory; nobody needs any clarification.
i have never hear the phrase "Christian essentials" before.

is that like, a greatest hits album?
or a starter kit for someone interested in a hobby but not ready to make a big investment yet?
or a line of perfumes?

requesting clarification, please. not a list but a definition.

tle battle with light sabres

it really bothers me that the second swing of the guy with the red blade isn't on target at all. he's just waving it over his head. it poses zero threat.

obi wan doesn't need to block that. he could just poke him in the belly, or strike his wrists instead.

it's Orion's right shoulder, and could feasibly supernova in our lifetime.

an ancient name for this same constellation, and it's thought, the origin of the mythos of 'Orion the mighty hunter' is Nimrod - who built the city of Babel.

an ancient Jewish tradition is that Esau had just assassinated Nimrod and was fleeing his guards when he came to Jacob and traded his birthright for a meal.

the Bible describes both Nimrod and Esau as mighty hunters.

Now is the time to start warning the unlearned of the punishments in hell for disagreeing with "Christian Essentials".

There is a massive problem with constantly propagating hellfire and brimstone...that is punishment over mercy and forgiveness

I have not seen one single person who has responded in this thread say anything about disobeying Christ, but did you know that the first step in obedience is to accept Jesus as having died in your place? Don't you know that His blood was shed for the entire world?

Everyone will sadly not be saved, but those who have called upon His name, repented of their sin and now follow Him, are saved and nothing you or anyone else can say or do can change that.

The emphasis in the gospel is SALVATION, not sin.

For God did not send His Son into the world that He might judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. John 3:17

I actually felt bad for you yesterday because of your ignorance and apparent oblivion towards the actual correspondence with others here. But, it is time for you to understand that you are operating under a false flag. How is it you do not wish to speak about Jesus at all but rather only wrath, hell, judgement and the like?

Sure, people should probably just not reply to you and that would be fine, but obviously that is not happening.

I see no point in saying anything further to you as I am not the Holy Spirit, do not think I order the Holy Spirit and if you refuse instruction, then you will go down a path with a dead end.

Further, your snarky replies help no one....they affect how others converse with you and no one is edified.

You have been saved but 3 years. You are not a teacher, preacher nor do you display anything that most here would listen to and that is not because we do not know anything about scripture. It is because YOU are actually and sadly, quite ignorant of it.

You may have been sent out by your 'church group' but you are not a prophet and your words are not in obedience to God, but to men only and they have hurt you and not helped you.

You don't believe all Christian essentials from Jesus Christ are absolutely necessary, do you? :(

you are quite the disingenuous individual because I truly do not think you believe the above that you wrote but you have nothing to fall back on. that is what happens when you follow people instead of God

your displeasure is with God. Not this forum and not the people in it. Truly done with you flogging of the word
