Not a good start.

Attention Unsaved Trash: This the ONLY subforum you can start threads in. Here is where you introduce yourself. Tell us what church you go to and what your favorite Bible verse is and how you came to find Jesus.

I expected that answer and I think I can live with it.

Then let me start:


I sadly still go to a Catholic church and now it feels like for a big mistake.

Overall, I prefer praying at home since I know God can hear me from anywhere.

Well, for nearly all my life - OK, only 20 years - I have managed to avoid alcohol and drugs. When I'm depressed, I talk to God and Jesus. There are many ways to communicate to God - just not drugs.

My favorite line is: "Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old selfs with its practices." (Colossians 3:9)


Is there anything more you have/want to know? Just ask.

Re: Hello

Hello and to

It's not often we get guests from as far away as Austria. How's the barbies, mate? Put another shrimp on the barbie! Loverly day for a barbie. She'll be roight. I just LOVE your accents!

I expected that answer and I think I can live with it.

That's just as well. I mean, not much choice is there, really.

Overall, I prefer praying at home since I know God can hear me from anywhere.

I hope this isn't some scheme to avoid tithing? It sounds rather scammy. Why not pop along to your local independent Baptist Church and get started properly. You're wasting time, young lady. Go now, drop everything, RUN RUN RUN.

Well, for nearly all my life - OK, only 20 years - I have managed to avoid alcohol and drugs. When I'm depressed, I talk to God and Jesus. There are many ways to communicate to God - just not drugs.

OK so, perhaps you will find time in between not doing anything interesting to READ THE INTRODUCTION AND ANSWER SOME BASIC QUESTIONS.

My favorite line is: "Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old selfs with its practices." (Colossians 3:9)

I looked in my Bible and it does not say that AT ALL. It says "Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds". Did you translate the passage yourself from an Australian copy? BAD. You should use some of your vast, wasted spare time to learn early 17th century English then you can read the Bible in its original form.

Is there anything more you have/want to know? Just ask.

When will you be coming back? We have so much to talk about!!!!

Hi LW!

I sadly still go to a Catholic church and now it feels like for a big mistake.

There's a lot wrong with the Church for sure, but there are some good elements about it. Most Catholics are lovely people. You seem like a lovely person too!

Well, for nearly all my life - OK, only 20 years - I have managed to avoid alcohol and drugs. When I'm depressed, I talk to God and Jesus. There are many ways to communicate to God - just not drugs.

Drugs can be a big no-no, but I assure you that there is nowhere in the Bible that says we can't have a little drink now and then.

Is there anything more you have/want to know? Just ask.

Yes! What does LW stand for? How much is your social security benefit? What do you like doing Friday evenings?

Most people who do things feeling like a big mistake stop doing them.

EXAMPLE 1 a papist in his humility

Is that the same "God" you pray to in your papist enclave? Catholics owe allegiance to popes over and above any duty towards national leaders such as Queens or Presidents and in catholic countries it's Romish clergy who claim authority over the heads of state and regard themselves as princes of the church, whatever that means. There may be constitutional reasons why they can't exercise that authority but they still regard themselves as superior regardless of any claims about poverty or being humble.

Gods for papists are the gods of paganism, decomposing corpses, bits of toenail, idols and candles, shrouds and lumps of wood, fake nails from The Cross where Jesus hung and died but still they laugh at Him; yes it's a complete freak show and anyone having read The Bible would be sickened to visit their headquarters in Rome.

So whatever passes for "prayer" in these dens is not prayer to God. Satan? Very probably. But certainly not to God who has condemned all popish antics in the strongest terms possible. And that means a very thorough condemnation indeed. So when you imagine that your prayers are "heard" by some invisible entity what method have you used to determine who or what that entity is?

Scarlet was used to mock Jesus and indicates the abominable filth of Revelation. If that's what you want to pray to then yes, I suppose you're right. Satan will get your message.

MATTHEW 27 .KJV . look up
27 The soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.
28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
30 And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.


REVELATION 17 .KJV . look up
1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

That is why cardinals wear scarlet.

Not possible friend.

A True Christian™ is not something you 'try to be'. A True Christian ™ simply 'IS'.

Putting yourself on a pedestal is no different than false God worship.

Luke 11:27 And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.
Luke 11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

John 2:4 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.

John 2:5 His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Acts 1:14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.

Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

1st Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
1st Timothy 2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

You are right. Back then I was lost and thought good people went to heaven


But you aren't any better either by saying you tried to live the way God wants you ro live (something nobody but Christ has done, saying otherwise is blasphemy, Jesus Christ is unique, no one else rose again after his death). No, believing the Gospel is the only way:
"Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; by which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures" (1 Corinthians 15:1-4)

Re: Hello

Jesus Christ is unique, no one else rose again after his death.….believing the Gospel is the only way

I highlighted the second portion just to show how dumb the Romish papism is. We're not just talking dumb, this is BIG DUMB. BIG DUMB CENTRAL!

So let's take a look at The Gospel. According to this catholic fool no one else rose again after Jesus’ death. And this is not just THE OPPOSITE of what The Gospels record, it's about as extreme the opposite you could even imagine. I'll keep it brief:

Matthew 27:50-53 Sequence of events:

1. Jesus dies
2. Veil of the temple rent in twain
3. Earthquake
4. Rending of the rocks
5. Many saints resurrected

There had been resurrections before but apart from one instance they were sporadic events and did not occur all that regularly. After the Death of Jesus however, resurrections were occurring almost immediately and were sustained. Verse 53 records how these resurrected people went into the city, engaged with many people but this is The Gospel. Something catholicism denies outright even while never having read it. Even if they say "Oh well, we've read the important bits," they are lying. What could be more important than Matthew's account of The Crucifixion?

Keeping it brief, since I've already refuted the absurdist claim, just a couple of examples of continuing resurrections AFTER Jesus died.

Acts 9:36-41
Acts 20:9-12
