Yeah I see what your saying :)



Then it goes back to your post, "Sin is sin none is without sin. He who is cast the first stone."flowerforyou


Do I condone any sin?

No.

Do I love all people ?

Yes.

So does God.:heart::heart::heart:

And if anything in any of our lives needs to be cleaned up,

GOD IS THE ONE , Who will reveal that to us All....

in due time....as we GROW in our walk with Him.

In time...as it it is a PROCESS for us all....and God is the

One who does the PERFECTING in all of our lives .....

as we become more and more like Him.

ONCE MORE.....As we grow in Him, GOD ALONE will do the perfecting in our lives.

But until that process is completed in all our lives, it is NOT

our busines to JUDGE ONE ANOTHER...

but to LOVE ONE ANOTHER.....and PRAY for one another!!!!!!!!

And like Carol wrote, "He who is without sin, let him cast

the first stone."

Well....The young man here is still a virgin..and is more without sin than any of us..yet he is judged!!!!!:cry:

Once again.....God ONLY is the One who cleans up any sin in any of our lives !!!!!

IF there is something that needs to be cleaned up(and yes,

there is probably something in ALL of our lives that need to

be cleaned up.....whether it be a judging tongue ot hatred or

unforgivness or whatever...and yes this all is sin to God) ......

then God Himself will convict

(btw , God does NOT condemn, but gently convicts)....

and deal with each one of our hearts.


BUT again.....it is NOT our place to judge each other's

shortcomings ..but to LOVE and PRAY for one another!!

But here's the thing:

When we have RELATIONSHIP with God, we can't help but LOVE !!!!

It is that simple.

But ,if there is just RELIGION in our lives, then we need to

check our hearts , and ask God to help us now to have

RELATIONSHIP with Him.

When we all have relationship..instead of just religion.....

we can't help but LOVE ALLLL PEOPLE...and will pray for all in a

spirit of LOVE..and NOT judge anymore.

" IF my people who are called by my Name , should humble themselves and PRAY........"

Notice it says PRAY.

NOT judge...but Pray!!!

And when we do?

Quess what ...God will heal our land and draw all people to Him.

But religion will just spread hatred and turn people away.


Let us LOVE One Another and PRAY for One Another Now!!!!!

With A heartful of LOVE for ALL people.:heart:

GOD IS LOVE.:heart::heart::heart:

Not Hate.

But LOVE.

Be Blessed Everyone Now.:heart::heart::heart:

God speaks to us in many ways. One of His tools are people. He uses our voice to speak His word. If what we are saying is not contrary to His word and that word is applicable to the situation, then we know it is Him who speaks not us. Who voulunteers to be the bearer of bad news? The truth hurts but can be done lovingly.:heart:

I sorry if your offended, but its the Most High whose using me. I give Him the glory because He is worthy.

This is showing love.......when you turn a sinner from his way and save his soul from judgement.:heart:


James 5:20
"Let him know,that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins."



Shalom


Once more, The young man is still a virgin.

He has already accepted Christ , and so therefore is now

SAVED...so is ALREADY converted !!!

And because he is BORN OF GOD now, GOD HIMSELF will continue

doing the perfecting work in him.

NOT YOU.


God said,

"You shall KNOW THEM by their FRUITS."....

the fruits being LOVE, JOY, PEACE, KINDNESS,

LONG SUFFERING,TEMPERANCE ,GOODNESS, FAITH , MEEKNESS ,

PATIENCE , GENTLENESS....

NOT by their being holier than thou, and Judging and beating

people over the head with scriptures.:heart::heart::heart:

:heart: I dont beat people over the head with scripture, No, that's what you do. You got it all wrong and totally misunderstood everything I said.

It is not your job to judge me. I cant help that you disagree with my spreading the Goodnews. Thats on you. I dont work for you, I work for Him.
I do not encourage sin. I will not smile and laugh and pat someone on their backs knowing what their doing is against God's word, especially if they bring it to my attention.

This is my obedience to Him. If you have a problem with that, I suggest you pray about it.But dont judge me because i use God's word to discourage sinful behavior.

The young man is not even doing anything.

He is a virgin !!


In closing.....

Let us all keep our eyes fixed on Jesus (or Yeshua in hebrew )...

NOT on each other...or each other's shortcomings.


Be Blessed Everyone Now.

Yeah it is sad to see people hating the Christian religion because of others who really just point fingers but just really haven't studied out the bible. But that is why also I believe so much in it look what satan goes for look how he mulnipulates. Even one against another. You never hear such hate in talking about other religions
:tongue: One time I got called a snake and a devil in the christian forums and I was quoting scripture!laugh

Yeap God is love read Jesus's teachings. Forgivness, love is found everywhere. Yeah we are suppose to strive and do the right thing it is our walk not others and to be and example of gods love. Which hate has not part in it. That is just the devil to stir things up he always around so forgive them what they do. And keep on your path. :)


God is love but he treats his mother like crap. Hmmm. Can't say as that's the kind of love I go for.
Think your a little mixed up there give me chapter and verus on that, we can talk about it.


Luke 8:19-21
He knew they were saved he was teaching the people that needed to be taught at the moment. NIV Verus 21 My mother and brothers are those who hear God's word and put it into practice.

I think it's sad that we ever considered sexuality shameful and sinful. Our bodies are amazing things, and to share our body with another should not be shameful of sinful. We created that insanity with religion from envy and fear.

Ask yourself why you choose to have sex with a person, that should tell you what you need to avoid. We often have sex for all the wrong reasons, to make up, to get something, etc. A tool of manipulation rather than an expression love or joy.

Who the hell are we to deny a segment of society the expression of love through sexuality. Actually I am sorry that you chose Christianity, I think you could have found a more spiritual path that would have honored you for who you are as you are.

Don't let anyone call you sinful or unrighteous, you will decide for yourself your reasons for sharing sex with another human being and if it's the right thing for 'you' at any given moment.

It drives me nuts to hear people suggest you give up that part of you to please their God, when they have no bloody clue what God thinks of sexuality, other than in a damn book written by men that had their own hangups with sexuality and fear and ego etc..

I don't know who the hell made you, but you are perfect. Your flaws are yours to determine and deal with, not mine to judge.

To me you are a human being capable of loving another human being regardless of what sex they are.
Well said as usual.

I'm using the KJV, the original book, not the others that have been nicey'd up for public consumption.

There's also Luke 14:26 "If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother...he cannot be my disciple." Can't get much clearer then that!

I have the KJV version too some would even argue about that being the orginal version. If you want to pick nits :) The NIV is by scholars form the orginal Hebrew Aramaic and Greek texts. The same as the people who wrote it for King James did. Instead of in old english it is understandable by all for now. The cost of being a Disciple :)anything that keeps you away from God go on further Read the whole thing better yet the whole chapter plus V. 34 and 35 Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is fit neither for the soil nor the manure pile: it is thrown out. He who has a ears to hear, let him hear. So If these people are keeping you away form God your going to end up like it will say a pile of manure. And the cost is letting them go.

Just because you are saved that doesn't mean you can do what you want with your life and expect no consequences.Jesus can take away that crown of life just as he put it on your head.

2 Peter 2:4 (NLT)
4 For God did not spare even the angels who sinned. He threw them into hell,* in gloomy pits of darkness,* where they are being held until the day of judgment.


Matthew 3:10 (NLT)
10 Even now the ax of God’s judgment is poised, ready to sever the roots of the trees. Yes, every tree that does not produce good fruit will be chopped down and thrown into the fire.

2-Peter 2:5-9

And God did not spare the ancient world—except for Noah and his family of seven. Noah warned the world of God's righteous judgment. Then God destroyed the whole World of ungodly people with a vast flood. Later, he turned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into heaps of ashes and swept them off the face of the earth. He made them an example of what will happen to ungodly people. But at the same time, God rescued Lot out of Sodom because he was a good man who was sick of all the immorality and wickedness around him. Yes, he was a righteous man who was distressed by the wickedness he saw and heard day after day. So you see, the Lord knows how to rescue godly people from their trials, even while punishing the wicked right up until the day of judgment. And God did not spare the ancient world—except for Noah and his family of seven. Noah warned the world of God's righteous judgment. Then God destroyed the whole world of ungodly people with a vast flood.




Jude 1:14-15 Look, the Lord is coming with thousands of his Holy ones. He will bring the people of the world to Judgment. He will convict the ungodly of all the evil things they have done in rebellion and of all the insults that godless sinners have spoken against him.

Revelation 2:4-5 Jesus says, "But I have this complaint against you. You don't love me or each other as you did at first! Look how far you have fallen from your first love! Turn back to me again and work as you did at first. If you don't, I will come and remove your lampstand from its place among the churches."



Revelation 3:1-3 Jesus says, “I know all the things you do, and that you have a Reputation for being Alive—but you are Dead. WAKE UP! Strengthen what little remains, for even what is left is almost Dead....Go back to what you heard and believed at first; hold to it firmly. REPENT & TURN TO ME AGAIN. If you don’t WAKE UP, I will come to you suddenly, as unexpected as a Thief."



Revelation 3:15-19 Jesus says, "I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish you were one or the other! But since you are like lukewarm water, I will spit you out of my mouth! You say, `I am rich. I have everything I want. I don't need a thing!' And you don't realize that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked. I advise you to buy gold from me—gold that has been purified by fire. Then you will be rich. And also buy white garments so you will not be shamed by your nakedness. And buy ointment for your eyes so you will be able to see. I am the one who corrects and disciplines everyone I love. Be diligent and turn from your indifference."



Revelation 21:7-8 All who are Victorious will inherit all these blessings, and I will be their God, and they will be my children. But cowards who turn away from me, and unbelievers, and the corrupt, and murderers, and the immoral, and those who practice witchcraft, and idol worshipers, and all liars—their doom is in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. This is the second death.

Matthew 7:21–23 Jesus said, “Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On Judgment Day MANY will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We Prophesied in your Name and cast out demons in your Name and performed many miracles in your Name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s Laws."


Matthew 18:3-4 Then Jesus said, "I assure you, unless you turn from your sins and become as little children, you will never get into the Kingdom of Heaven. Therefore, anyone who becomes as humble as this little child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven."

Hi, I'm Mahan.

I'm a pasteurized, homogenized, tri-sexual atheist.

I like little puppy dogs, cuddling up by the fire place and watching a movie, candle lit dinners, and romantic walks on the beach after anal sex.

I'm currently seeking an adventurous female and/or a Brazilian shemale for fun times and possibly more.

If interested, please feel free to drop me a line.

Oh yeah, I'm a Libra!
