I enjoyed your testimony on the loss of loved ones very much and can relate to that in certain events in my own life. I like the Footprints prose too. Very touching.

As much as i genuinely appreciate your attempt at mediation, Anderson has a murderous and deceitful spirit, just like his father, the devil. If calling a child of the devil "a child of devil" is evil, then Jesus is evil because he did so himself. In fact, you rightly posted that scripture from Luke's gospel in which the Lord had to rebuke his own disciples because they did not know what spirit they were of by desiring the deaths of their enemies. God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but Steven Anderson does. That ought to be evidence enough as to who Anderson's real "father" (John 8:44) is. The lack of discernment in modern-day Christendom is appaling.
Anyway, with God as my witness, none of what I just said was meant as pushback against you personally. At the same time, however, I stand behind my denouncements of Anderson. He should not be standing behind a pulpit as a pastor, and watching and hearing his congregants laugh when he calls for the execution of homosexuals is disgusting. The only time Anderson should be behind a pulpit is if he is vacuuming the rug. The guy is as off as they come.
Now, let the crybaby give me some more red X's, or, better yet, let him give me another quote from the book of Proverbs. Apparently, he missed this one:
Proverbs 17:15
"He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD."
H&H is guilty of both.
He is a nut job, and he is indoctrinating more nut jobs. Have you seen any of the videos where his congregants are laughing gleefully as he calls for the execution of homosexuals? The guy is a reproach upon Christianity.
Ezekiel 18:32
"For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye."
Whereas the Lord GOD has no pleasure in the death of him that dies, Anderson and his cult members do.
Need I say more?
Anderson unashamedly calls for the execution of homosexuals, so nothing that I said is a railing accusation. Instead, it is an accurate description of his warped character. We will know a tree by its fruit. God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, and Anderson does. Why? Because his "god" is not the Lord GOD. That is why.
Straight from the nut job's mouth.
Watch as he says that LGBTQ stands for "Let God burn them quickly", and as an imbecile in his congregation laughs when he hears it.
Then, of course, there is his advice for homosexuals to put a bullet in their own heads.
Can you imagine Jesus saying these types of things?
Unlike Anderson, because they are of a different Spirit/spirit, Jesus came to call sinners to repentance.
Btw, seeing how Anderson loves to quote Leviticus 20:13 as his proof text or justification for his hatred against homosexuals and his desire to see them executed, has anybody even bothered to read the verses which immediately precede it?
Leviticus 20:9-13
"For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him. And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death. And the man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them. And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood shall be upon them. If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."
Using Anderson's logic, should a righteous government be similarly executing children who have cursed their father or mother?
If so, then there would probably be a lot of childless people right here on this forum, and multitudes more across the globe. Worse still, some of us might not even be alive because some of us have probably been guilty of this very thing in our pasts.
What about adulterers?
Would Anderson have them executed as well?
Oh, wait. A bunch of self-righteous hypocrites tried to pull that stunt in front of Jesus, and they all had to drop their stones, didn't they, after Jesus told them that the one without sin should cast the first stone? Jesus also told that adulterous woman (the man was conveniently missing) to "Go, and sin no more." Not Anderson. Let God kill them all quickly. Right, Stevie boy?
How about the man who lies with his father's wife?
Would Anderson have him executed?
Oh, wait. That is what that guy in the church at Corinth did, and he was thrown out of the church until he repented, and then he was welcomed back with open arms.
Anderson is nuts, and so are his misguided followers.

I have learned to cherish every moment. We make everything a celebration, from Thanksgiving to birthdays to father and mothers day. We do little things to show our appreciation to family and friends. My mother has always loved cards, and I use to try and get her to get rid of old ones. But when so many loved ones passed away so close together, one day I went through those old cards and I realized they were something to cherish.
I basically asked the same question in post number 74 (<= link), and 105.
H&H said most had been abolished under the carnal ordinance clause, without saying which ones.
When I asked wherethis was, Hebrews chapter 9 was given with out a verse specified or explanation.
Just to give everyone a scary (in my estimation) glimpse into Anderson's mindset, here he tells a man that even if a Christian does something awful like kill somebody or kill themselves, then they are eternally secure:
I am so glad that we as Christians don’t need to judge people. Why? because we have a Judge—He is our Father in heaven. God gives us the gift of spiritual discernment so that we can know whether we’re hearing Truth or falsehood. Therefore, we must decide that. The Truth is beautiful; absorb it. —but falsehood? just throw it away; you don’t need it. Let’s just serve our Father and be blessed. 
Obviously, the cards hold a great sentimenatal value and well worth keeping for the memories that they bring.
They do, I wish back then we had digital cameras though. I have so many pictures of my nephews, I think they have gotten tired of me now in their teens. lol But they'll have something to show their children.
