Since I have shown that I DO follow the words of the Bible, even when I don't, but you are unwilling to even read what I write, remember these things in the time of great trouble that is coming on you. Remember the things I wrote. Perhaps the Lord will be merciful enough to you that He will give you the chance to turn before it is too late for you.
How ironic that you choose to ignore your god's commands when it suits you!
James 1:22 "Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says."
I wonder how your god will feel about you disobeying his words and making your own decisions based on his words?
Samuel 12:15 "If you will not listen to the voice of the LORD, but rebel against the command of the LORD, then the hand of the LORD will be against you, as it was against your fathers.
I'm guessing Badecker that you not following the word of your God completely..... you are screwed!
Oh well..... it won't be so bad... if your God turns out to be real, you will have me for company for eternity! How bad can that be?
Absolutely! I entirely do what the word says. I do it through Jesus, my Savior, who said that the work of God is to believe in the One God sent, namely Jesus.
Your reminder that I do what God says in his Word, even if it is through my proxy, Jesus, gives me renewed peace. And if and when I make mistakes in life, it is Jesus Who deals with me in grace and mercy and forgiveness.
Now, YOU. Do you have Jesus in your heart? Do you believe in Him? Because if you don't, you are doomed to Hell... unless you change and believe.
I won't be in Hell with you. But, you will be in too much pain, roasting there for you sin, to even take note of anyone else. And especially you and a few more in this forum, because you have great opportunity to change through my urging, but don't change. Those people who have had little chance to change in life, will receive little pain in Hell.
Wake up before it is too late. If you live a hundred years in this life, it might seem long. But it is short compared with eternity. And, you don't know when your life will end. You might live for another hundred years, but you might die later today. You just don't know. Turn now.
I can't help but find this thread pleasantly cathartic, especially when BADdecker posts. Hahaha
Since the dictionary definition of the word "religion" shows that atheism is a religion, you need to realize that the topic question is misleading.
