I have plenty of tolerance. This is me, showing restraint.

I have never blocked anyone. Not ever. Never will. Not even you. You speak for others now? Are you the designated spokesperson for others? Their champion perhaps?

Are they standing behind you, or did you step up to the terrible task of dealing with me?

Someone's gotta do it..... you tell her..... no you.

hahahahahahahaahahaha Thank you for the visual.

Thanks for quoting her post so bryan can read it.

I would have but I'm pretty sure bry-guy has me on his ignore list too.

He's another of the cowardly fundies.

Restraint is great. Tolerance would be appreciated. At least coming from someone that claims to be the tolerance poster-child.

I am unconcerned if I am on your ignore list. I will continue speaking to you, and others will read. You are not my only audience.

However, if someone chooses to quote my responses, you will get to read me in all of my glory.
Your responses are always quotable.

I really am jealous. It must be sweet to be legally "high" much of the time with no negative effects.

The rest of us have to rely on dangerous antidepressants and our broken mental health "care" system.

To hear from God people must to have the baptism of Holy Spirit , which God expect all His children to have , then people need to talk and pray to God or God will never talk to them .................With demons evil spirit people can have short talk with them to identify them so they can caste them down to the pit every time , so if people leave demons on their space and know it , than this would be sin ....

I prayed, yes, and I used to believe the biblical God was out there listening to me, but I NEVER used the frequent, "God spoke to my heart" babble I seem to hear so often. So, it comes off to me as a very creepy thing when I scroll my Facebook newsfeed and peep in on some of the religious threads some of my friends are part of and see people talking about talking to God or him talking to them or them talking about God being by their side, directing them, helping them make life's decisions and so forth. It just seems creepy and crazy all at the same time.

If that is the case with their belief, then he is watching them have sex, take a crap, masturbating, picking their noses, pulling their underwear out their butt crack and other things we all do in private or when no one is watching, but God's watching, apparently.

Then there are the greasy looking televangelist who give these stories of themselves having these intimate conversations with God.

"So, I was sitting on my lawn chair and the lord came to me and said, 'go mow the lawn!' And then I said, 'why Lord?' Then, listen to this here! The Lord told me, 'don't ask me dumb questions! It needs mowing. You rather hear your wife's clap trap or mine?'

Yeah, like I said, creepy and crazy all at once.

Anyone else feel this way or see it like this?
Spirits really do speak to people but the problem is, people think that it is God. It is this spirit we are given instruction to overcome like Moses when he killed that Egyptian, like Elijah killing and judging everyone, and just like those disciples who said to Jesus,'' Shall we call fire down on their heads?''


If God gives his two witnesses power then a person really has his eyes opened but what he becomes is the great prophet of vanity which says,'' I am the only one left Lord.''




Jesus turned to those disciples and said,'' You speak by the spirit of your father Satan.''


Truth be known, spirits come and go through a person like wolves, and the person thinks it is God until he sees his vanity and then shuts the others up. All people who would follow Christ must be beheaded because the head they are following now is a fallen head, you have to symbolically and literally die to that spirit and because you have to die to it, it must first be shown in you so that you know and realize what is happening.


Revelation
Then I saw the thrones, and those seated on them had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony of Jesus and for the word of God,.....


We are taught to die to that spirit of vanity and this means that you stop listening to the spirit speaking to you, and you realize by what spirit it is, it is pure vanity, it must be beheaded and a new head must be placed.
