A week?

A whole week?



Friend, a week is nothing. Jesus fasted forty days and forty nights in the wilderness while Satan tempted Him relentlessly with feasts the likes of which your mind cannot conceive, and that was among His lesser sacrifices (relatively speaking). Surely you can last without a Biggie Fries for a less than a fifth of that time, unless you are intentionally mocking Christ. Are you mocking the love and devotion of our LORD and savior? If so, you may be permanently estranged from His saving grace -- and if that is the case, I am thankful to God that I am not you!

If you're not prepared to be who Jesus wants you to be, then there's no way you can escape Hell. Are you not getting that?

Free will is the freedom to choose to follow and worship Jesus, or to go to Hell for eternal punishment. That's how it works.

Maybe you don't understand, I'm not like you. I don't care what your god thinks of me. Because personally, I think he's a bigot. I don't care what he can do to me. I don't care if he damn's me to hell. I'd much rather hold my dignity and constructively contribute to society then piss away my life on earth believing in something that can't be proven.

Every christian-esque religion follows the bible. I'd rather see what you're actually like, reading a book won't tell me how you generally act and exactly believe. Plus i don't think the bible is the word of god (i'm going to hell for that, right?).

The only way to know God is through His Word.

How else would you know God? Through your own imaginings, or that of Pastor Feelgood?

Well feel free to rebuke this, but i feel that the origin of religion started when some power hungry war-mongers realized that their power tactics didn't have the same affect on the people anymore, and wanted a new way to gain support. So they created religion. A way to get people to worship them blindly (Kind of like what you guys do). And scared the commoners into being forced to believe, or else, hell.

You started this thread with the words, "Help me repent." Now, a mere four pages later, you're blaspheming as though your immortal soul isn't in danger. I've got a strong suspicion that you didn't want to repent at all.

Interesting theory you have there, ZZD.

So you're saying that PEOPLE made up GOD?

And that religion is all about concentrating power and money, and creating social control?

That DOES sound a lot like Catholicism, granted. But there's still the issue of where everything came from. God explains it in His Word . . . how do YOU explain it?

(Get ready, he'll be quoting Robert Ingersoll or some other schlock from infidels.org next!)

Sure, i agree, having a God would explain a lot. But there are more realistic reasonings for everything. I'll be honest, i don't know how the world is created. It may have been by some more supreme power. It could have been from a big bang. But i do know this, God's word (the bible) has been proven wrong on many things such as the length of human existence, space, and even earth (unless your a flat-earther). If you were to look at the bible as a reference for everything, i don't see how you could not second guess the part where moses parted the sea, or when Noah built the ark and flocked every animal into it on one day? As Robert Ingersoll once said...

Ahh, but all things are possible with God.

After all, dating of the earth is only done by current knowledge of geologic processes. What's to say that God couldn't speed them up if He so desired?

Also, you must remember, that a million years to God is the time between breakfast and lunch.


"If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing. . . . And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the manservant's do."
(Leviticus 21:6-7)
