Man Cuts Off Hand With Mark of The Beast -
09-09-2011, 04:38 AM
God Bless Christian men like THIS one who follow the Holy Bible to the letter.
Quote:
Matthew 18:8 Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.
18:9 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.

Idaho man cuts off hand, microwaves it
Police say he believed he bore 'mark of the beast'
HAYDEN, Idaho — A man who believed he bore the "mark of the beast" used a circular saw to cut off one hand, then cooked it in the microwave and called 911, authorities said.
The man, in his mid-20s, was calm when Kootenai County sheriff's deputies arrived Saturday in this northern Idaho town. He was in protective custody in the mental health unit of Kootenai Medical Center.
"It had been somewhat cooked by the time the deputy arrived," sheriff's Capt. Ben Wolfinger said. "He put a tourniquet on his arm before, so he didn't bleed to death. That kind of mental illness is just sad."
It was not immediately clear whether the man has a history of mental illness. Hospital spokeswoman Lisa Johnson would not say whether an attempt was made to reattach the hand, citing patient confidentiality.
The Book of Revelation in the New Testament contains a passage in which an angel is quoted as saying: "If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives his mark on the forehead or on the hand, he, too, will drink the wine of God's fury."
The book of Matthew also contains the passage: "And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for you whole body to do into hell."
Wolfinger said he didn't know which hand was amputated.

Obviously it was the one that offended him. Duh.

We all know the phrase ''The Lord works in mysterious ways'' will never be found written in the Bible but sometimes it is so true. Just imagine if the Lord had allowed the Mark of the beast be placed on this fellow's head. He would not have been able to cut it off and then be around to fellowship as to the reason why he did it.
1 Chronicles 16:15
Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations ... an everlasting covenant.
Proverbs 30:5,6: Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.
Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.

Why didn't he cast it away? God said nothing about microwaving the hand after you cut it off.
I hope that poor man didn't doom himself to an Eternity in the Lake of Fire because of poor reading comprehension.

I assume that he knew that the heathen doctors would try to sew it back on. By cooking it they couldn't reattach it. Why is he in a mental ward? This seems like good clear Christian thinking to me. He is just being victimised for follow the sweet words of our Lord Jesus.

GLORY!
In these dreadful times of secular perversion and Biblical cherry picking examples like these are as a beacon shining in an ocean of iniquity.
PRAISE
This has obviously got the atheist conspiracy in the press worried that others will be similarly inspired into a rush of holy fervour that will sweep them from the land. Look how they try to label him as crazy so the faithful might yet be distracted. It's almost as if they prepare for the coming of the Lord in their own way with straitjackets and padded cells.
I only hope that if God one day tests me with a similar blemish I have the strength to follow through. His love and clear to interpret guidance to salvation is mighty and wondrous to behold and His word is beautiful in its simple loving brutality and uncompromising instruction of the right path to take to please Him. Jealousy is a sin but surely as the blood dripped forth and the aroma of his hand's destruction entered his nostrils this fellow will have felt the joy of doing God's will no matter the personal cost. Oh to be so devout!
GLORY

We live in sad times when people following the Bible are called mentally ill for that. Fortunately his ejection to Heaven is guaranteed now: Matthew 5:10 "Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."
Freedom means voting for Donald Trump!
To most "Christians" The Bible is like a license agreement. They just scroll to the bottom and click "I agree". All those "Christians" will burn in Hell!
James 2:10 "For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all."

That looks disgusting! Too much sauce.
Anyway God only instructs the eating of human flesh in certain circumstances.
Deuteronomy 28:53 And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the LORD thy God hath given thee, in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee:

That sounds almost like God is commanding parents to eat their homersexural children.

Isn't it just like the news media to portray someone with deep Chrisitian faith as mentally ill?
As far as I'm concerned, people who follow the scriptures to the letter are just fine.
Isaiah 24:1-3 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty (2)...as the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. (3) The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken his word.
