All I can say is, it is YOU that will be what you obviously are now. And that is THE LOSER! You make such "off the cuff" "Pat answer statements" as you post here, and this is NOTHING NEW! Trust me, in 29 years as one saved by the Lord Jesus Christ, I have heard just about every excuse under the sun and every so called "valid arguement" about WHY the Bible is NOT TRUE! You are SO TYPICAL! When are you infidels gonna come up with something ORIGINAL? But then, YOUR MASTER (Satan) has you so blinded that all you can see is YOU!

These statements you make, about how you are "watching your [my] book and your [my] faith fall apart." Really? Since when? And HOW? In what way? If you're gonna make such statements, please have the decency and INTEGRITY (something you atheists and agnostics know NOTHING about, by the way, so full of LIES are you!) to not make such GENERALIZATIONS! Instead, give me SPECIFICS! And you say this about ME PERSONALLY! That's pretty amazing, especially since we've NEVER met! Nor do you KNOW the literally HUNDREDS of people that I do whose faith is
NOT "falling apart" as you claim, but whose lives have been radically changed FOR THE BETTER due to FAITH IN THE BIBLE AS THE WORD OF GOD!

You know NOTHING of my personal life and the things I've been through over just the past (almost) 5 years! Things such as THE DEATH OF A YOUNG CHILD! Things such as DIVORCE and all the "bloody aftermath" that goes with that! Dude, were I to subscribe to YOUR philosophies and "personal beliefs", I would have NO HOPE! NO PEACE! NO REASON FOR BEING! It is a FACT that you have NOTHING of REAL SUBSTANCE, nothing LASTING, nothing SURE AND CERTAIN to offer me. Nor THE REST OF THE WORLD, for that matter!

The so-called "enlightenment" you THINK you've experienced is nothing more than so much SELF DELUSION BASED IN STINKIN' SATANIC PRIDE! You are just TOO PROUD AND FULL OF YOURSELF to acknowledge YOUR OWN NOTHINGNESS AND VANITY AND WICKEDNESS! And that's really sad! Because the SAME eternal salvation that I KNOW I have is available to you! But you reject THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH OF GOD and instead choose YOUR OWN PRESUPPOSITIONAL MYTHS! Like your supposed "proof" that "the Bible is just another book written by fallible men"! HOW WRONG YOU ARE! And you show yourself and CONDEMN YOURSELF as what God calls you: AN UNBELIEVING FOOL! "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools." (Romans 1:22)

You say you "have walked my path" and "know this book better than I do". Oh really? Since when? Jesus said, "My sheep hear my voice, and they follow me....and a stranger will they NOT follow." And the apostle John tells us, "They went out from us, but they were not of us; for had they been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us." You "bagged out" on God and His word for one simple reason, according to scripture: you were a FALSE convert, one that has NEVER "known the truth" and been "made free", as Jesus said! Because when you REALLY see yourself as what you REALLY ARE in the sight of as HOLY God: A WICKED HELL DESERVING SINNER, you can NO LONGER walk in the SELF CENTERED PRIDE that you have here exhibited! You are instead HUMBLED in the sight of the Lord, realizing your UTTER DEPENDENCE UPON HIM! Instead, YOU, puffed up in your "self sufficiency", think that SOMEHOW you will escape the judgment of God! And the ONLY one you are fooling is YOU!

You certainly don't fool your Creator, NOR do you fool "seasoned veterans" of this "good fight of faith" like me! Like I said, I've heard it all, and all you unbelievers do is come up with the SAME TIRED OLD LINES OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN! Junk like, "The bible has suffered MORE damage and change from its believers and writers than it will ever suffer from its foes." Again, WHERE'S YOUR PROOF OF THAT? What "damage"? As I said, I know literally HUNDREDS of true Christians, and NOT ONE of them has EVER "damaged" God's word! NOT ONE! I'd like you to NAME these so-called "believing damagers" of the Bible, and also give SPECIFICS as to HOW that is being done!

You remind me of an old poem called "The Anvil of God's Word", which speaks of how a man visited a local blacksmith, and upon close observation, noted how this man had MANY hammers lying BROKEN on the ground around the anvil. He then asked the blacksmith, "How many hammers have you broken?" To which the blacksmith replied, "Many! The Anvil wears them out, you know!" Then the observer asked the blacksmith how many ANVILS he'd had in all his years as a blacksmith? "Just one", was the prompt reply. And thus, the writer noted, "So it is with God's word. Skeptics throughout history have done their best to STRIKE BLOWS at the Bible, yet that Book still stands unaffected and unchanged, while all the hammers of skepticism lie BROKEN ON THE FLOOR, WORN OUT BY GOD'S WORD!"

You can feel justified in your own little mind, but it is YOU, and not GOD, HIS WORD AND ALL TRUE BELIEVERS, who will SUFFER LOSS once this life is over! For now, you live in the FALSE SECURITY of the SENSUAL realm! But that will ALL end the moment you "breath your last breath"! And then, REALITY will hit you HARD as that BOOK that you treat with such contempt and take SO LIGHTLY will COME BACK TO HAUNT YOU ON JUDGMENT DAY! And you will EAT YOUR OWN WORDS, while you also are FORCE FED THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD! Because, unlike NOW, you will have NO CHOICE then! Your freewill will be GONE! And you shall hear Jesus Christ declare, "Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels!"

Yes, then you will encounter the GREATEST "thumper", THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, who will be THUMPING YOU...with HIS WORD in judgment! Sleep on if you want to, but you are in for a VERY RUDE AWAKENING as your ARROGANCE comes back ON YOUR OWN HEAD! Just WHO do you think YOU are, trying to dictate to God HOW he gave us His word? Oh PUNY LITTLE MORTAL! You are living in A FANTASY WORLD, you'd rather believe in YOUR BUBBLE than THE BIBLE! But guess what? At death, your "bubble" will be POPPED, while the Bible will continue IN POWER! You lose! We win! Bye bye! Eternity rolls on! Too late then!

You have THIS MOMENT, and THAT'S IT! "And as it is appointed unto men to die, but after this the judgment" (Hebrews 9:27) "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:23) YOUR condemnation is YOUR choice! And it will be JUSTLY DESERVED! I hear THUNDER in the background behind you, and can see the FLAMES growing HIGHER AND HOTTER all around you! "Behold, NOW is the accepted time; behold, NOW is the day of salvation." Take the ONLY way out NOW, while you still can! God has been SO GRACIOUS AND MERCIFUL to you, even allowing you to BE BREATHING! Let alone offering you the FREE GIFT OF ETERNAL LIFE! And yet, like those in Noah's day, you SCOFF AND LAUGH at God's way, settling for YOUR OWN! How stupid! How Satanic! How SAD!
