For myself, you'll never see me accepting an offer of a car ride from Leon Spinks.
3 to be 4 said:at least you are actually responding with some thought out viewpoints. And i applaud you for FINALLY condemning the posts making fun of Jesus pain. I appreciate that you said that.
all in all, we've pretty much said everything there is to say about it. We see things differently and thats fine. I can understand the whole "well, look at Him, he doesnt really live it" mantra. I used it for years. And yes, we all, and especially I, should live up to the standard of ************ more.
all of the things about me reflects on me, not on the truth of ************. No more than you are an example of the validity of your beliefs.
Peace be with you.

shmessy said:The difference between my view and yours is that my relationship to God is personal.
Yours is a political and marketing campaign.
You have announced here many times how you continually break the ethics and moral paradigm of your faith. You STILL have not apologized for publishing on this very board PRIVATE MESSAGES sent to you by a grieving man whom you wronged. All you have done is give empty excuses and then forgave yourself. Then you go out and proselytize others.
You know who does the VERY same thing? The "Reverends" Michael Irvin, Deion Sanders and Jimmy Swaggart.
You keep on repeating "Please don't focus on the messenger, just focus on the message". I'm sorry, sir, but would YOU take moral and religious direction form Michael Irvin, Deion Sanders and Jimmy Swaggart? In their case and in yours, it's the LOUDEST and most persistent voice that counts.
Neither would I. Work on yourself, first. You're like a doctor performing surgery without a license.
3 to be 4 said:If you are ready, say this prayer, or a prayer like it. take this step to Him and will take two to you.
"God, I recognize that I have not lived my life for You up until now. I have been living for myself and that is wrong. I'm done. I need You in my life; I want You in my life. I acknowledge the completed work of Your Son ************ in giving His life for me on the cross at Calvary, and I long to receive the forgiveness you have made freely available to me through this sacrifice. Come into my life now, Lord. Take up residence in my heart , be my king, my Lord, and my Savior. From this day forward, I will no longer be controlled by the desire to please myself, but I will follow You all the days of my life.
I ask this in Jesus' precious and holy name. Amen."
If you said this prayer in sincerity, you have entered a magnificent journey.
Congratulations. It is only the beginning. Remember, you are not alone.
Follow this up with others. Pick up the Bible and read the Gospels, especially Matthew and John. Find a Bible based church where all glory goes to ************.

""La ilaha il-Allah, Muhammad-ur-Rasulullah".
Did you say it? Wonderful, you are now a Moslem in good standing.

Live your life by deeds, not words. I know this would be a sea change for you, but I hope you will be successful in this endeavor.
3tobe4, do you know what is the fundamental truth? Here it is. Are you ready?
----"Only God can hear a human heart, in a language where no parsing is possible."
3 to be 4 said:No, we dont know anything about someones heart, that is between them and God. I love your quote and I agree totally.
Have a great day!
