Lol. I can't help but laugh. You fail logic by the way.
Might as well spend your days spamming the internet asking mathematicians why they haven't created square circles.
Butt hurt? Should have explained it more unintelligibly. Don't cry about it Sally.

Tough on the computer, eh?
No worry. God's grace is sufficient to save all sinners.
Even tough guys like you.
That is very arrogant to assume I am a sinner. Do you know me? Do you know the life I lead? You have no idea the deeds I have preformed. I imagine that means nothing to you, only what name do I call god by.
I don't have a problem with Christianity or Buddhism or any other religion so long as they harm none. However, this is seldom the case with certain Christians and Muslims. The arrogance for you to assume that your road is the only road to God is quite ungodly. Live and let live in peace and quit spreading your negativity.

christianman Wrote:repent of your sins that means stop sinning. stop your lying, fornicating, homosexuality, occultism, stealing, envy, lust, hatred, false gods, idols and drunkeness.
God hates sin!
how can a God who is so Holy, pure and righteous tolerate something so detestable as the sins listed above.
that is why Jesus Christ died on the cross - to pay for our sins....
but it isnt enough to be saved and go to heaven by just merely believing, you must repent (stop doing those sins) and worship with all your heart, mind, soul and strength in order to be saved. you must be a born again christian.
You're joking about your alien false god, yes ?

The Greek word for sinner means "to miss the mark", much like an archer would miss the mark.
To sin means to "miss the mark" of what God has called us to be. If you did a check against the Ten Commandments, I'm sure you've committed at least one of them. If you believe you have not broken one of them, then do you think you can stand up to the understanding of the Ten Commandments as Jesus expounded them (i.e., "Whosoever has looked upon a woman to lust after her in his heart has committed adultery already.")
I already know the answer: you cannot since you have broken the First Commandment. Therefore, you have sinned - as the Bible says, "For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God."
Those who sin will be held accountable for their sins; the punishment for those sins can be both temporal and eternal. Those who are guilty and die unrepentant will quite possibly (and most likely) be condemned to eternal destruction of body and soul forever in the Lake of Fire after the resurrection.
All your proclaimed good works will avail you nothing. They would be the equivalent of washing the (honorable) judge's car to get out of a murder charge. He has an obligation to mete out Justice regardless of your good deeds. Besides, in light of God's glory, even our righteousness is like filthy rags (menstrual cloths is the accurate interpretation here).
However, anyone who sins can be freed from the bondage of their guilt by acknowledging that Jesus Christ died for them and then surrendering their life to do His will.
Just as you had no choice in whether or not you wanted to be born into this world, you have no choice in the method by which God has chosen to reveal Himself and you have no choice in how He metes out Judgment or offers mercy. You also have no say in who He is or what He is like - only He does. And just as God is All Mighty and Just, He is also merciful and loving and suffers a long time with cruel and wicked sinners to repent.
You, my friend, need Jesus.

Rejoicing
"Do not rejoice when your enemy falls, and let not your heart be glad when he stumbles... If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink... He who rejoices at calamity shall not go unpunished." [Prov. 24:17; 25:21; 17:5]
"The Lord will rejoice over you to destroy you" [Deut. 28:63]
"The righteous will rejoice when he sees the vengeance, he will bathe his feet in the blood of the wicked" [Ps. 58:10]

This is a logical fallacy because both are mutually exclusive.
It's like asking, "Can God create square circles?" Of course He can, but in our reality, they would be interpreted as having their own unique qualities and mathematical values that would quantify them as something other than squares or circles.
Asking whether or not God can create a rock bigger than He can lift is the same fallacy of mutual exclusives. In other words, since God is All Mighty, it assumes there is nothing creatable that can fulfill the role of a rock heavier than He can lift.
So by your own logic put into layman's terms, he cannot make a rock too heavy for him to lift.
Not so supreme after all is he?
you didnt understand the reply, open your eyes and read what was posted. If you still don't get it then that is sad.
What can be more foolish than to think that all this rare fabric of heaven and earth could come by chance, when all the skill of art is not able to make an oyster!

Mercy
"Blessed are the merciful" [Matthew 5:7]
"Leave alive nothing that breathes. Show them no mercy." [Deut. 7:2]
"The Lord hardened their hearts... that they might receive no mercy." [Joshua 11:20]
"I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, saith the Lord: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy, but destroy them. A curse on him who is lax in doing the Lord's work! A curse on him who keeps his sword from bloodshed." [Jer. 13:14; 48:10]

RE: Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven - repent and believe
Exodus 20:4 ESV /
“You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
Leviticus 26:1 ESV /
“You shall not make idols for yourselves or erect an image or pillar, and you shall not set up a figured stone in your land to bow down to it, for I am the Lord your God.
Acts 17:29 ESV /
Being then God's offspring, we ought not to think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man.
Exodus 20:1-26 ESV /
And God spoke all these words, saying, “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. “You shall have no other gods before me. “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, ...
Deuteronomy 4:16-19 ESV /
Beware lest you act corruptly by making a carved image for yourselves, in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female, the likeness of any animal that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged bird that flies in the air, the likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water under the earth. And beware lest you raise your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, you be drawn away and bow down to them and serve them, things that the Lord your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven.
Isaiah 42:8 ESV /
I am the Lord; that is my name; my glory I give to no other, nor my praise to carved idols.
If I were to worship Jesus, I would be breaking these Bible verses. I don't want to get "God" mad so I'm just going to have to decline your offer.

What is sad is it was a yes or no question. Perhaps I understand more than you realize.
