I am a New Christian!
I am in the process, of becoming a Christian. I am finding Jesus. I have been to several different churches and been visiting Christian websites and forums on the Internet. I have noticed that Christians believe many different things among themselves. I myself are not completely clear just as to how I believe on certain scriptures pertaining to the Bible. I have come here to discuss with you the way you believe and why you believe the way you do. I want to compare your belief of the scriptures and the Bible, to the other Christian denominations. Then I can decide for myself which way I ought to believe.
My favorite Bible verse: Matthew 5:9

Welcome Robert
At Landover, we follow the Bible to the letter - every word of it. We don't skip the bits we don't like. We acknowledge God as not only a God of love, but a God of hate and jealousy. Because that's what the Bible tell us. We believe that the only way to Salvation is by obeying the Word of the Lord, as it is in the Bible; not interpreting it to what we might like it to be. It's not an easy path to follow - it's much harder than all those false Christian churches you've probably been to, where it's all about love. But embark on the journey with us, and you will be Saved. Praise the Lord!

Hi Robert!
Matthew 5 is one of my favorite chapters because that's where Jesus explicitly says that all of the rules of the Old Testament are still in full effect:
(Matthew 5:17-18) "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."
GLORY!!!!!
Lots of folks think The Sermon on the Mount lets a lot of sinners off the hook: nope! You can be the meekest, most merciful and pure of heart queer on Earth and you'll still burn for eternity.
Yours in Christ,
Z. Smyth

Welcome Robert.
We are True Christians™. Very simple people. We follow what is written in the KJV Bible. We do not express an opinion. We do not try to imagine that God 'really means...' We do not think we can 'skip the parts we do not like'. We do not deviate.
So if you read the Bible and do exactly as it states, that is what a Christian is. The Bible tells us so.
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

Dear friend, I welcome you in Christ's abundant love. Christ has given us His standard for distinguishing genuinely saved Christians from liberal false Christians who only think they are saved:
[Matthew 7:21-23 KJV] 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
That is, "Christians" who don't do the will of the Father in Heaven are unsaved. The will of the Father, of course, is set forth in the Bible — all of it, not just a few feel-good verses.
Christ has also given us a way to tell the difference:
[Matthew 7:15-20 KJV] 15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither [can] a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
Note: Christ said that good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, not that a good tree only sometimes brings forth evil fruit because that's just going to happen in human institutions. Therefore, any "church" that brings forth any evil fruit (e.g., Catholicism or one of those megachurches that have pastoral sex scandals) is not of God.
This church is dedicated to preaching True Christianity™ and the King James Bible exactly as they are, with no alterations to make them more politically correct for modern liberals. If you think that we've misquoted or twisted Scripture or quoted any verse out of context, please explain in detail how we've done so. Otherwise, if what you read on this site offends you, then you're offended by Almighty God and His Word, not by us.
Questions to ask liberal "Christians" ✞ Things that the Bible doesn't say ✞ Tolerance

Wherefore, my beloued, as yee haue alwayes obeyed, not as in my presence onely, but now much more in my absence; worke out your owne saluation with feare, and trembling.
"Work out your own salvation" = you decide if you want salvation. Jesus cannot force you to do anything. You have an independent will, and it's up to you to choose the right path. Choose the right path with "fear and trembling" because if you choose the wrong one, you will not achieve salvation. It does not mean, do whatever you want (provided you believe) to achieve salvation. Even if it did, there are far too many other verses in the bible which contradict that notion.

Welcome to the friendliest forum on the internet, :smile:.
It appears as though you want to judge us and compare us to other Christians sects. Well by looking through our threads, you will get an idea of our beliefs and lifestyle. Our beliefs rely on one thing and one thing only, the Bible. We aren't those "Christians" that skim through the Bible and pluck the things they like. We never disagree with the Bible. We are a supportive, unbiased community and we have the pleasure of the most amazing, Holy Pastor there is. Pastor Ezekiel.
Yours In Christ,
Mary Thompson.

Robert,
My thoughtful wife, Jennifer, told me to tell you something about the Bible. You don't have to sit and wonder what to believe. Every scripture means what it says and says what it means. Our Lord tells us that His Word is good for teaching. This means there is really no interpretation needed. It is His Word and that should settle it for you. Needless comparisons with other groups will do one thing and one thing only: It will make you so confused that you will be in the hands of the devil.
You see, that is what satan wants. He doesn't want you to take the Holy Bible literally - he wants you to weigh everything in the balance and then choose what seems the easiest for him. The devil is a savage lion, but praise God, Robert, Jesus has already won. When our Lord was transfigured (this is nothing like transgendered, don't get confused), He won the battle for our souls; when He returns to earth and stands on the Mount of Olives, satan gonna be like, "Whoa, Jesus. Why you be tearin up my mountain and shit." And the Lord is gonna drop kick him and then He's gonna give each of us that believed in Him a big hug and show us to our mansions, tell us to get washed up, and then He'll have Elvis and Frank Sinatra do a welcome concert for us. Or maybe Barbra Streisand. Ha Ha Ha. (Won't happen, since Babs will be serenading satan and the gaywise)
Robert, I look forward to being a brother with you in Christ. Don't let the devil keep you questioning - just believe in Jesus and ask the Holy Ghost to give you knowledge and discernment of the scripture. My friendly wife, Jennifer, sends her greetings.
Doc

Tell us more about yourself. How old are you? Are you married? Do you have any children? Are you a whole man (and were the last four generations of your family whole)? Was anyone in the last ten generations of your family a bastard by any chance? Have you ever said the Lord's name in vain?
Kind Regards,
Mary Thompson.

Why Doc, you certainly are a wordsmith. I feel like if I were to close my eyes, I could just about see that surprised, stupid look on Satan's face. Say, if you have the time, perhaps you could help out with The Ebonics Bible translation project. You seem to speak the language fluently enough, and can't paint a picture with words well enough for illiterate negros to understand. I think you might be a real asset.
Hello, my name is Mary. I hope to fellowship with you! That is, unless you don't listen to church authority (Deuteronomy 17:12); are a witch (Exodus 22:17); are a homosexual (Leviticus 20:13; Romans 1:24-32); or fortuneteller (Leviticus 20:27) or a snotty kid who hits their dad (Exodus 21:15); or curses their parents (Proverbs 20:20; Leviticus 20:9); an adulterer (Leviticus 20:10); a non-Christian (Exodus 22:19; Deuteronomy 13:7-12; Deuteronomy 17:2-5;Romans 1:24-32); an atheist (2 Chronicles 15:12-13); or false prophet (Zechariah 13:3); from the town of one who worships another, false god (Deuteronomy 13:13-19); were a non-virgin bride (Deuteronomy 22:20-21); or blasphemer (Leviticus 24:10-16), as God calls for your execution and will no doubt send you to Hell, and I have no interest developing a friendship with the Spiritually Walking Dead.

Dear Pastor Ezekiel;
I do not ever mention those things no more.
Jesus has washed me clean of them by His blood
He shed on the cross at the hands of
the Jews(Israelites) and the Romans(Italians).
God has remembered them no more
and I do not want to ever remind him of
how evil I use to be, before Jesus found me.

I can only assume this is a misunderstanding on your part, not yet being used to how strongly a True Christian™ views his heterosexual duty to impregnate his wife no matter what. You can't be a queer if you have such a strong calling from the Lord.
Please read the
