Oh no. It just so happens that his God hates only the sins he doesn't like, and looks the other way for the sins he happens to be in to.

In other words -




For the sins he doesn't happen to like, he has a God of righteous judgment.

...but....

For the sins he happens to like, he has a merciful God.






It's really a pretty good system.

Default Death

Greetings,

are job is to love one another - tell them about jesus - let everybody make there choice. Heaven or hell. Not judge them

but the bible is very clear about what god likes or dislikes. It is up to the person to believe the word or not. The word isn't going to change for nobody.

Every single person is redeemedable. No matter what...

So listen to the song by gladys knight or leann rhimes, "i hope you dance".. Be kind to another. Just smile. Lighten up...
Be blessed

the weird and scary (and tragic) thing is that, as a so-called christian, it is you who is looking forward to it!
the atheists and liberated homosexuals (as opposed to those who are under the oppressive thumb of the "church") aren't worried about that future non-event that you are so attached to and fascinated by.
it's your paradigm.
it is not an objective perception of "reality" and only exists within the minds that hold it to be true.

Well, that would whittle down the number of Christians REAL fast.

Why or why not?
Shh, not so loud.

They DID put them to death in our Colonial period.

And some Calvanists, like Rushdooney and his Christian Reconstructionist Movement, currently fronted by the Chaldeon Foundation and forwarded by Pat Roberts, Graham, and their ilk, would see those laws returned.

Is the above not the antithesis of Christianity. Your man-god commanded: "Love your neighbour." This ‘Christian’, with his own fingers has condemned himself with the hope and desire that atheists and homosexuals receive the full measure of his god's wrath.

This so called ‘Christian’ has committed one of the most heinous anti-Christian crimes: the joyous celebration of the damnation--nay, the severest punishment--for another individual, an individual he is supposed to love unconditionally. Un-con-di-tion-al-ly! No "ifs" or "whens" or any excuses. 100% of the time, regardless of state of mind, body, pocketbook, class, or any other human-invented division.

Your post, abegofet, sadly places your stated beliefs in an untenuous position. Your words announce in glorious living colour that you, yourself, do not really believe in ‘the Christ’ or in his philosophy of salvation and relationships with God and man.

You may at this point bluster and protest that you do. But, actions speak louder than words. Your obvious hope that we will suffer for eternity is very telling of your inner nature.

I'm pretty sure only a few would exist on the planet if that happened.
