pricillia Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Just would like to say to LH and LB... Don't be afraid of the bad things or the good things, sometimes I wonder if the two of you would not know the difference, because there is so much fear in you. Plus. Where would the Good be with out the Bad... That is like having day without night. embrace your demons that is part of who you are, you can not run from them nor hide from them, you can only learn to live with them, sometimes becoming better from it. I believe that knowledge is power, but we choose to believe or percieve things differently. Peace!
Love Hurts Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 I never contradicted myself. It is my life. By own free will I make choices. I will state it AGAIN - read more slowly this time - perhaps that was the problem - I'd like to think you do not suffer from a lack of reading comprehension I don't blame some imaginary being for bad things that happen or circumstances I may find myself in -- what you would attribute to Satan or demons. And I take all of the credit for my choices that work out -- not attributing those times or choices to some kind of divine intervention. That is the EXACT same thing I said previously. If you don't know what a word means you shouldn't use it. And again you completely ignored a question posed specifically for you in the same thread you quoted. Afraid are we? Bah ha ha.... Ok I give tell me about God forcing people to cannabalism. By the way I looked up the word to be certain of its meaning. It says here…. Cannibalism (from Spanish caníbal, in connection with alleged cannibalism among the Caribs), also called anthropophagy (from Greek anthropos "man" and phagein "to consume") is the act or practice of humans consuming other humans. In zoology, the term cannibalism is extended to refer to any species consuming members of its own kind. Care should be taken to distinguish among ritual cannibalism sanctioned by a cultural code, cannibalism by necessity occurring in extreme situations of famine, and cannibalism by mentally disturbed people. Did God tell you to eat your neighbor?

I believe that knowledge is power, but we choose to believe or percieve things differently. Peace! The spirit of fear is not in me…. I don’t live by it ...nor am I ruled by it or governed by it. It does not exist in my being. This may not mean much to you … but I was listening to Spirit lessons.com. I heard of this spirit of fear… Bill Wiese is the one that mentioned it. He said there was a woman in hell and that on earth she had been driven by the spirit of fear…. Thus in hell it was her eternal torment the same sprit of fear. See we are not live in fear. I have heard of people that will not sit with their backs to the door for fear of who is coming in and they want to see head on who it is….as in preparation for. People that walk down the street in fear or sleep in fear or live in fear; of something daily. I can tell you I do not understand it… and I call it a blessing that I do not. I would not want to. I imagine a drug dealer lives in fear of getting caught or a murderer of getting caught. But I have nothing to fear and death for a Christian is a Victory as we cross over and so what is to fear…? Not even death itself is to fear. I am so totally clueless of fear… and again I thank God that I don’t get it. Since your brought it up as if it exists in me... tell me what is it you fear? If its death....... when you know the Lord there is no fear in death. That is Glory to see our Lord. Its all good. Oh relax... fear not... what is to fear? Nothing my friend, in Jesus ... nothing is to fear. Instead.......Rock n Rule....out of my way I have demons to bind.
Island Girl Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Ok I give tell me about God forcing people to cannabalism. I'm surprised I have to tell YOU. After all -- you do know the ENTIRE bible right? You've read the WHOLE bible right? Not just the highlighted passages that you read over and over again... By the way I looked up the word to be certain of its meaning. GOOD. So thre'll be NO misunderstanding then. It says here…. Cannibalism (from Spanish caníbal, in connection with alleged cannibalism among the Caribs), also called anthropophagy (from Greek anthropos "man" and phagein "to consume") is the act or practice of humans consuming other humans. In zoology, the term cannibalism is extended to refer to any species consuming members of its own kind. Exactly. Humans consuming other humans -- or any species consuming members of it's own kind. Care should be taken to distinguish among ritual cannibalism sanctioned by a cultural code, cannibalism by necessity occurring in extreme situations of famine, and cannibalism by mentally disturbed people. Thanks for the completely unnecessary warning. Did God tell you to eat your neighbor? Nope. But God does force people to eat each other including their own children and family members. Leviticus 26:16 I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. 26:29 And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat. Dueteronomy 28:53 And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the LORD thy God hath given thee, in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee: 28:54 So that the man that is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom, and toward the remnant of his children which he shall leave: 28:55 So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat: because he hath nothing left him in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy gates. 28:56 The tender and delicate woman among you, which would not adventure to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her daughter, 28:57 And toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them for want of all things secretly in the siege and straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates. Isaiah 9:19 Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother. 9:20 And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm: Isaiah 49:26 And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I the LORD am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. Jeremiah 19:9 And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend in the siege and straitness, wherewith their enemies, and they that seek their lives, shall straiten them. Ezekiel 5:10 Therefore the fathers shall eat the sons in the midst of thee, and the sons shall eat their fathers; and I will execute judgments in thee, and the whole remnant of thee will I scatter into all the winds. Zechariah 11:9 Then said I, I will not feed you: that that dieth, let it die; and that that is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest eat every one the flesh of another. And then there are the accounts of cannibalism that are told about in the bible. It seems these passages are written quite gleefully: 2 Kings 6:28 And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, This woman said unto me, Give thy son, that we may eat him to day, and we will eat my son tomorrow. 6:29 So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him: and she hath hid her son. Lamentations 4:10 The hands of the pitiful women have sodden their own children: they were their meat in the destruction of the daughter of my people. Micah 3:2 Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones; 3:3 Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron. Ezekiel 24:10 Heap on wood, kindle the fire, consume the flesh, and spice it well, and let the bones be burned. 24:11 Then set it empty upon the coals thereof, that the brass of it may be hot, and may burn, and that the filthiness of it may be molten in it, that the scum of it may be consumed. 24:12 She hath wearied herself with lies, and her great scum went not forth out of her: her scum shall be in the fire. So, as it turns out -- the ruthlessness we condemn like Saddam and Hitler. They are quite Godlike are they not? Do you not think favorable of them? They are just like YOUR God. What a Lord deserving praise! He could inflict pain, torture, and inspire fear among his believers! And yet he has the power to make it ALL go away and does not. He has the power to be loving and kind but will not. Yet I am supposed to PRAISE Him?!! NOT!!!

You fear sin and being out of favor with your God. You fear The Reaper. You fear judgment. AND YOU DO FEAR PEOPLE HARMING YOU. You are going to tell me, you don't lock your doors at night, you frequent seedy parts of your city bringing "the word" to the lost souls that, in your view, so desperately need it? No. Hypocritical statements AGAIN. And false. Just so false.
pricillia Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 To answer you question... no I am not afraid of dying... So there was a woman who lived on this earth and she was afraid... so when she died she went to hell, and she lived in fear... Can you tell me more about this story... I think it is a bunch of brainwashing if you ask me.. I know that you have fears, everyone does Most americans have a fear of public speaking, does that mean they are all going to hell.

Even so knowing God this is a curse to those that do not love Him… to those that worship other Gods or those that have mocked Him. I would have to read on to see what happened… But I know this has to be a curse. The Good News is; you can believe... hell is a literal place? Moose you can handle this one.
pricillia Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 But I do not know how you got onto the death subject from my post. I was talking about living not dying... I just think that you are afraid of understanding another way of thinking, and if someone is not Christian and does not practice the way you do, you may not see the good in them, or understand them as another human being for that matter. LH, can you talk about other ethnic backgrounds or other religions. Did God only create Christians... if so where did everyone else come from. I do not think you have a broad viewpoint when it comes to the world, just a Christian viewpoint. Would you treat someone of another faith differently then you would treat a Chrisitan brother or sister.?

As an example your Micah quote without context is damning. But the quote is used in the context of what evil people do. You conveniently leave out the next passage in which the Lord will not hide his face when His people cry out to him. You overlook or ignore why Lamentation was written. Babylonia had surrounded and beseiged Jerusalem because God's people had turned away from Him. What was going on in the city was not uncommon for cities under seige. I notice that you selectively take scripture that has to do with what will happen if the people turn away from God, or they are being punished for their evil. Selective knowledge is no knowledge. If you are going to argue, argue straight up and don't be a weasel.
Love Hurts Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 To answer you question... no I am not afraid of dying... So there was a woman who lived on this earth and she was afraid... so when she died she went to hell, and she lived in fear... Can you tell me more about this story... I think it is a bunch of brainwashing if you ask me.. I know that you have fears, everyone does Most americans have a fear of public speaking, does that mean they are all going to hell. Yes it was on spirit lessons.com have you heard Bill Wiese? He brings it up also He mentions Mary K. Baxter had written of it. I can send you the links… You have to listen to Bill Its in there… Just keep working and keep it as back ground voice… that’s what I do … I work and listen… Ok…..link to Bill. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=648563944666093503 And M.K.B. http://www.spiritlessons.com/Mary_K_Baxter_A_Divine_Revelation_of_Hell.htm B.T.W. fear of public speaking is really just the jitters…lol its not fear. You get a kiss for the jitters… its that your concerned your not good enough or prepared enough or you prefer not to stand out in a crowd… that’s not the same spirit of fear …So not the same as that a murderer would have … relax… no biggie. A jitter is; nervousness. Fear is another page. Don’t even go there…lol you too do not know what fear is …. See? You have no fear. Jitters are cute……..Lol daaaaaaaaa jittters....lol...big deal PS...if her link does not work.... from Bills click on spirit lessons... it will open.. I got it from there originally.
pricillia Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 I ask does someone need to read the bible to have Faith?
Island Girl Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Totally gross... Yep -- you're God that you "praise". Totally gross. Its been a while and many passages elude me. You don't know the whole book then. You read certain passages over and over - focusing on what you want it to say -- what you WISH it to say but you do not read it over and over cover to cover. Oh yeah. That is surprising. -- I am of course being facetious. Even so knowing God this is a curse to those that do not love Him… to those that worship other Gods or those that have mocked Him. It is your God commanding people to eat their own children! Whatever the reason! You are justifying how incredibly horrible that is because He must have some reason for it? Are you crazy? -- And what of you saying that children are innocent? It doesn't seem to matter at all here. Not that it really does. Your God that you praise as being such a just and wonderful FAIR GOD -- is exactly the opposite. No matter what the reason -- you would think it is FAIR or JUST that CHILDREN are served up as dinner to their parents?!! Again - you must really admire Hitler and Saddam. They used the same excuses your God did for the same actions. I would have to read on to see what happened… But I know this has to be a curse. Curse? This was judgment and punishment - not a curse. And Saddam and Hitler did the exact same things in the same context. In fact -- I don't know of those two forcing people to EAT their children. That is something that was even beyond them. So you're God goes one better at the grossness factor and total complete hypocritical bulls**t factor. "We are all God's children and He loves us all because He created us." Well, I know my mother would never want to see me eating other human being as punishment or recourse. But apparently your God does so -- even seeming to enjoy the ability to make others do so. Sick. Just Sick. This is the God you worship. The one you want to spend eternity with. Oh yeah -- I want to bask in His presence praising Him forever. -- NOT!

If you are going to argue, argue straight up and don't be a weasel. Actually I’m not going to tell you about something I am weak on. When I know I know I am weak on an area....I will not share it ...until I am certain. At the moment...knowing God ………. all I can tell you is there is a reason ……..See our God does not teach us to eat thy neighbor……..my friend. So all I can tell you is; it sounds like a curse.
RichC Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 If you want to practice the Christian faith you would have to read the Bible to find out: Your relationship with God Your relationship with others The basics of the Faith How to live the way God wants you How to "get right" when you slip up How to fight evil How to save your soul The price paid for you
RichC Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 I would not expect you to tell anyone anything. That is between you and God.
Island Girl Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Just keep working and keep it as back ground voice… that’s what I do … I work and listen… That explains it. Mindless dribble and crap on all the time - in the background -- always reinforcing your subscription to the blind - truly blind - world of "believing" and having faith that He really exists. I bet you couldn't go one week without hearing or reading about God for fear that He really DOESN'T exist and that we are all here, right here, and that this is it. That is the FEAR you have - that He doesn't exist and that there is NOTHING after this life. Keep holding on. It doesn't make it so. Oh but you already know that!

The rest I work on one day at a time. One Day my friend I will know it all… how far from that are you? I'm a student... not a scholar. What are you?
Love Hurts Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 That explains it. Mindless dribble and crap on all the time - in the background -- always reinforcing your subscription to the blind - truly blind - world of "believing" and having faith that He really exists. I bet you couldn't go one week without hearing or reading about God for fear that He really DOESN'T exist and that we are all here, right here, and that this is it. That is the FEAR you have - that He doesn't exist and that there is NOTHING after this life. Keep holding on. It doesn't make it so. Oh but you already know that! Do you listen to music and work? Can you multitask or do you stare at the radio while it speaks to you? If you desire to watch the battery waves on your windows media player while M.K.B. is speaking ok. You can do that. I prefer to multitask… I can walk and chew gum at the same time.
pricillia Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 If you want to practice the Christian faith you would have to read the Bible to find out: Your relationship with God Your relationship with others The basics of the Faith How to live the way God wants you How to "get right" when you slip up How to fight evil How to save your soul The price paid for you Well one can still have faith and believe in god, but does not have to practice Christian teachings. I understand that there have been struggles and sacrifices...
RichC Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 God has gotten under Island Girls skin pretty good. She can't argue from scripture and she can't handle people that do believe. Her knowledge is topical at best so she turns to personal, ad hominem attacks. Way to stick up for the unbelieving community.

I have argued from scripture to which it has been largely ignored by LH -- because inconsistencies etc. well these are the things she does not want to address. Perhaps you should put your best effort out there. Go back to the beginning of the thread -- read all of it and respond to those things which she can't. All of it - including what Moai, Topper and B4R have posted. It should be enlightening for us all considering your posts already. The invitation is out there...now what will you do?
Love Hurts Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 But I do not know how you got onto the death subject from my post. I was talking about living not dying... I just think that you are afraid of understanding another way of thinking, and if someone is not Christian and does not practice the way you do, you may not see the good in them, or understand them as another human being for that matter. LH, can you talk about other ethnic backgrounds or other religions. Did God only create Christians... if so where did everyone else come from. I do not think you have a broad viewpoint when it comes to the world, just a Christian viewpoint. Would you treat someone of another faith differently then you would treat a Chrisitan brother or sister.? All people must come through Jesus to be saved…there is no other way… do want me to say there is world atlas? There is not… it’s a narrow path and Jesus is the door. Brothers and sisters in the Lord are diff... they are saved. I have no concern for thier souls.. we are united in Christ.. we shall meet one another in glory... its the unsaved that I speak to and call out in the name of Jesus.
