Jehovah hasn't guaranteed me anything except that if I endure to the end then I will be spared. Well, I'm not dead and this wicked world is still here so I have no answer because I haven't endure to the end yet.

But I DO apply it to myself, is the Bible only good for a couple of laws to you? But the scriptures below were written after Jesus pointed out the most important laws. Jesus didn't say other laws are not important. You're the one implying that.

The things to avoid found in 2 Tim 3:1-5, Rom 1:26, 27, Galatians 5:19-21, Eph 4:31 and 1 Cor 6:9, 10 (just to name a few) are part of the ALL SCRIPTURES that are for reproof yet you are saying they don't matter. I am simply pointing to the Bible which is what the Bible says I should do, to correct wrong thinking. If a person cannot accept the correction then their fight is not with me but with God's Word. You are correct about one thing, you don't answer to me for ignoring 2 Tim 3:1-5, Rom 1:26, 27, Galatians 5:19-21, Eph 4:31 and 1 Cor 6:9, 10. If you reject those scriptures then there's nothing I can do about it. My only obligation is to point out that there are not only 2 commandments in the Bible.


(Did you notice how I was able to explain myself without telling you what you think?)

If you answer yes then there are more than only 2 commandments we have to follow. If you answer no then your your fight is with God's Word the Bible and not me at all. The above are not my words and you say I should apply them. Well I do. Do you?
If a person follows the two, which actually equate to one.
Then, the rest will take care of themselves.

And I never fear what man has said, written or spoken.

I see. Then your fight really isn't with me but with the Bible. I'm just getting the ear full about it and getting blasted for believing scriptures like the one below that God's Word comes through men in way of the Bible.

"Indeed, that is why we also thank God unceasingly, because when you received God’s word, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but, just as it truthfully is, as the word of God, which is also at work in you believers." - 1 Thessalonians 2:13

I'm guessing you think the above is false?
If you do. Then in the future when someone posts something from the Bible, how about rather than saying the person who posted it is wrong, be honest with everyone and take the plunge to say the Bible is wrong.

You can believe or accept everything you are told. As for me, I will search my own heart.
It delights in searching out the deeper things of God - not just those men believe to be true.

How many kings does one need? The bible teaches that one cannot serve two masters.

Christianism has two gods, one is of this world.
I believe you call him, Satan?

Which is nothing more than man, himself.
And his beliefs that condemn the majority.

Interesting post ^ above ^.
How long has mankind been voting for other humans ?
It would seem that if the voting process was going to work it would well have worked by now instead of failing.

A true follower is no part of this world--their hearts are to Gods kingdom hope.
Satan is very real, unless you are calling God a liar. Even Jesus taught--satan is the ruler of this world--that is why his kingdom is no part of this world.( yet)
