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.
@ BADecker...... I am not sure how you believe in the fact you follow your Gods words when the reality is..... YOU DON'T. You put your own spin on things to make it appear you are doing his work to fit your own agenda.
When the people asked Jesus what they had to do to do the works of God (i.e., following God's words), Jesus said that they had to believe in Him (Jesus) to do the works of God. So, even though I on my own can't and don't follow God's words, because I believe in Jesus I DO follow God's words. Believing in Jesus (Who followed all God's words perfectly) causes that following of God's words to be attributed to everyone who believes in Jesus.
As I have shown you the words from YOUR Bible which highlight your failure at following the rules/laws/commandments of YOUR God, you once again place an uncanny twist on the wording to suit your own belief thus going against YOUR God. This will continue to land you in your HELL, right along side me!
Now just for the record, I don't believe in Heaven, Gods, Hell, The Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny or Santa, so your threat of an everlasting eternity of pain and suffering doesn't frighten me or worry me. That is your fear and the fear of religious people.
For all you know, you could already be in Hell and I am here to torment you for eternity. Therefore, now that we have begun, please visit a local shop and purchase me some Jim Beam, settle in and get comfortable for this is going to be one hell of a ride!
This life is like Pergatory. We are much nearer Heaven in this life than Hell. After all, absolute zero is only about 458 degrees away. But you can get to temperatures in the millions. Much closer to Heaven than Hell.
