I could as easily say that there is a slim chance that prankster Muslims decided to start a hoax about the last Prophet and blaspheme against the divinity of Jesus.
Also Fun Fact for you all that didn't know. Persians (now-a-day Iranians) discovered Jesus' true birthday through astronomy while you were celebrating some pagan holiday that is now known as Christmas.sigpic

Originally posted by gran guerrerobrookus is talking about every post that 1ight makes (and take no offense to your religion or anything 1ight, good for you to have faith or whatever you want) he puts in like some quote from the bible, or comparison whatnot. It's ok to do it, but to do it in every response in every topic in this forum boards, is quite honestly tiring. I admit he has something good to say, but I rather just skip on to the next post than reading the same "Jesus has shown me the way now I must show you my faith" in every post. Say something else, something humorous maybe.
I like writing and sharing my thoughts, as you write here on the forums. And of course I wish that what I write would have some affect in your life, maybe give you a different view, but that is your thing to decide on.
Often, if not always, most people just flame eachother on these forums, alot of hate and Sherlie knows what else. Almost, if not the same, as in-game in TW. You can see people flaming and calling other names and whatnot. When I playied, I know this had a influence on me, I know I got so annoyied when someone that I thought was a "newb", killed me. Even I was sometimes flaming and calling other names and tossing out hate.
I know Paulus/Saulus from the bible, spoke where there was people wanting to hear and not wanting to hear what he wanted to say. You can read this in the Acts, but I doubt you will not even look in to this. I don't know what town it was, but he got stoned (people threw stones/rocks at him) for sharing the gospel of Jesus, and they thought he was dead. But he wasn't and the next day he was still there preaching.
Bio, I will keep that in mind and I knew that Gen was being quite sarcastic.'
HeavenSent,
I didn't quite understand what you meant with this -> "Nonetheless, it's my belief that Christians with a strong heart for Jesus get a little boost when one of their brothers &/or sisters speak their faith boldly where opportunities present themselves... knowing they're gonna expose gnashing teeth in opposition....".Endless space, endless exploration.

I believe the Bible is the Living Word of God.
I believe that there is only One God and Alla is not Yahoveh, the Creator of the universe and all therein.
I believe that Satan is the Prince of the Air and the ruler of this physical Earth until Yahshua returns to take His throne. (at which time physical mankind will cease to exist ->that's your clue to know the imposter)
I believe only God can draw souls to Him and when the Holy Spirit comes to dwell within a believer, He promises to never leave.
I believe there are evil people guided by evil spirits to do the will of the Evil One.
I believe the religions of the world (including Christianity) are represented by the white horse of the apocalypse (book of revelations) and that it's one of the 4 hidden dominions (politics, economics & education) of Satan's authority on earth.
I believe many leaders in Christianity (the serious & sincere Bible students) know much more than they're telling the congregation for fear of turning the weak in faith away. In other words, Mainstreamers are stuck with the milk of their faith and if they want meat, they'll have to get it on their own.
I believe for various reasons of any given individual, be it bitterness, ignorance or just plain denial, no one is truly an athiest. Everyone has a spirit void within themselves to be filled with either good, evil or self.
I believe people are who they wanna be and cannot be changed unless God Himself does the changing.
Bla bla bla...
Therefore I hated life; because the work that is done under the sun is grievous unto me: for all is vanity and vexation of spirit. (Ec 2:17)

Originally posted by genocidalSo why bother doing anything?
As i've stated previously and in other threads, Organized religion with all its rules, rituals and traditions are man made and not God made. God gave us His Word and 'man' has added meaningless vanities and made a religion out of it
Originally posted by genocidalYour evangelism means no more than my hedonism - they are both acts of God.
Secondly, When you say "my hedonism" it's just that. It's YOU and YOUR actions not God's.
Originally posted by genocidalAdditionally, if one were to be guided by the will of the Evil One and was conscious of this it then you're saying that it wouldn't matter and he might as well enjoy the sinning?
Originally posted by genocidalWell, if I'm bent to the will of the Evil One I hope I get to do some cool shit like pillage poor peoples' towns or rape countless children. Hell it's not my fault.
Rejoice, O young man, in your youth; and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth, and walk in the ways of your heart, and in the sight of your eyes: but you know, that for all these things God will bring you into judgment. Therefore remove sorrow from your heart, and put away evil from your flesh: for childhood and youth are vanity. (Eccl:11:9-10)
The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love. (Galatians 5:6)

I do take responsibility for my actions; you're the one that said if someone acts in a good or evil way he is expressing either the will of God or "The Evil One". That would therefore absolve that person from responsibility because he's acting through some Divine being's plan.
And trying to pass yourself as not an evangelist won't get you much credit here because every post you make is littered with pleas for people to seek God and shit.

All people on earth are sinners. As long as we occupy the flesh we will continue to sin. For the believer, they have Yahshua to speak on their behalf in defense to the Father. The godless have no one to speak their case to the Almighty.

I think you and many like you are perhaps too overly sensitive to members who blatantly express their faith.
Where did I plea for people to seek God in this thread:
http://forums.trenchwars.org/showthread.php?t=24939
It just so happens that my passion is in spiritual matters. That's who I am, it's what I do. Most of the shit posted on this site, i could care less; I usually have nothing to say or no motivation to participate. But when spiritually related topics arise, I'm all ears.. energized and willing to share my thoughts.
God is a reality to me. I know Him. He's the closest person in my life.
Is that ^^^ evangelizing? So be it if it is. For me it's no different than someone talking about a friend or member of their family.

boi heaven your a nitwit
allah is the arabic translation of the word God
allah is not another God that replaces the Christian belief of God, cause they are both the same one and only, the same belief flows in through Jeduism. Why do you think that everything thats not jewish/christian/islam is called paganist? Cause those three religions are A) the religions that is followed by most of the world and B) they all follow one God. There is no different Gods like the Greek Mythology. It is just one God in different languages (honestly I don't know why people don't get this? Do they not teach you this in church or whatever?). Get it fucking straight: the difference in our religions is not God, it's about who brings the religion to the people. Moses 4 the Jews, Jesus 4 the Christians, and Mohammad 4 the Muslims. We are all not so different as you all think we are. Islam's Qu'ron acknowledges Jesus and Moses, and I'm sure the Torah and Bible do in return. We have similar stories, we are just indifferent in some certain aspects on how we are to live our lives following our religions. Interesting thing my Father said to me once. Islam is not out to change Christianity or Jewish beliefs, nor are they to us. Islam was created to complete what was being preached in the first place. If all three religions just noticed that, then we could achieve enlightenment and reach what buddhists call nirvana. I myself feel that all three different religions were created just for competition. Which is a good thing, because any sports coach will tell you. Competition is healthy, it inspires each of us to do better than the other. Sure we might get out of hand here and there, but in the end it will all be a good game and we will respect each other and start all over again. So all our religions were put down here on Earth on my opinion as competition for each of us to do better and improve our doctrines to improve society. So far people have not cared for the better sake of humanity but for themselves and believes that if we just got rid of the other 2 religions, we would be number 1. Well quite frankly all our religions stink for this, and we might as well wait till the next profit/messiah comes along to preach a different religion that will alter our world indefinately.sigpic
