Know Jesus Christ who is God's Living Word. <br /><br />2. Know the Bible which is God's written Word. <br /><br />3. Don't add or subtract from either.<br /><br /> [Pssst....here's a hint of difference concerning the Mormons...they added their own book!]<br /><br />GMpilot wrote:<br /><br /><i>"No, I really don't oppose Jesus."</i><br /><br />Jesus Himself would disagree with you.<br /><br />Jhn 3:18 "He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. <br /><br /><br /> Jhn 3:19 "And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. <br /><br /><br /> Jhn 3:20 "For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. <br /><br /><br /> Jhn 3:21 "But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God."Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-43568061238988483382011-11-02T21:15:10.861-07:002011-11-02T21:15:10.861-07:00I'll be equally brief.
I have studied the diff...I'll be equally brief.<br />I <b>have</b> studied the differences between Christians (your kind) and Mormons (Christians of another kind). The differences aren't nearly as sharp as the similarities: belief in a divine Overlord, fantastic tales from the distant past, unrelenting hatred toward anyone not of their circle, struggles to become respectable in the world while remaining apart from it, belief in an eternal post-death Happyland where they get to reign and rule beside the Overlord, etc. <br />But both you and they claim the mantle of Christian...so how are we to know who really is true?<br /><br /><i>SHHHH!!</i> Don't go dissing Soros like that, or he'll put bad juju on your computer again like he did last month...heh heh!<br /><br />No, I really don't oppose Jesus. I oppose what some people <i>claim</i> for/about Jesus. Don't flatter yourself; you are a poor excuse for me to oppose him, but you're an excellent reason to oppose those claims.<br />Just how did all that prayer work out for Texas, anyway? Is the drought over? If it's not, that doesn't speak well for Perry among the anti-Romney crowd.GMpilothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07189308176043748343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-30060658401372783452011-11-02T13:40:20.137-07:002011-11-02T13:40:20.137-07:00Pressed for time so just a brief response.
Of cou...Pressed for time so just a brief response.<br /><br />Of course you would lump Mormons in with Christians simply because you haven't done your research on the differences between them.<br /><br />You think that I would be envious of the class warfare Radicals, Communists, Fascists, Islamists, anti-Semites etc. - who apparently think it's OK to urinate and defecate in the streets while getting paid for their ugly and disgusting protest appearances by billionaire George Soros? Thanks for that laugh!<br /><br />Ultimately, it is Jesus Christ that you oppose - not me. I'm just your excuse to oppose Him.Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-75533933155642558222011-11-02T13:32:48.964-07:002011-11-02T13:32:48.964-07:00Thanks Susan!

If this unspecified &...Sorry I'm late, hostess.<br />If this unspecified 'disaster' is looming, then God is going to do whatever he wants to do, and nothing any Christian can do will stop it. Disasters are always attributed to 'God's will', especially so-called normal ones like tsunamis or earthquakes. Six months ago, Gov. Rick Perry of Texas called for three days of prayer to end the state's long drought; instead, they got wildfires. <br />I have no doubt that there was a lot of prayer going on when the Romans besieged Jerusalem. Those prayers delayed the Romans not one hour; God had a 'plan' for the Jews, and losing their city was part of that plan. What makes Jeremiah (and you) think the USA is any more special than they?<br /><br />Your feelings about Herman Cain and Mitt Romney are your own business. Just remember how your prayers against Hillary Clinton went four years ago.<br /><br />I consider Mormons to be Christians the same way I consider you to be one. If you say you are, that's all right with me. If you act in accordance with <i>your interpretation</i> of you holy book, that's fine too. In some respects, you're more of a True Christian™ than Romney is; but Fred Phelps is more of a True Christian™ in some ways than you are. I'll let you guys settle this; for nearly 2000 years different Christian sects have been claiming to be the One True Faith, and it's still going on.<br /><br />I'd guess Mass Resistance is screeching about what's happening in Boston because they're <i>in</i> Boston. That does not explain why there are similar “Occupy” protests in New York—by far the biggest one—or cities such as San Diego, Cincinnati, Seattle, Memphis, Las Vegas, Juneau, and at least 65 other cities. Similar ones are taking place in foreign cities as well. This is the kind of public response the TEA Party can only dream of. I think they're envious!<br /><br />It's no surprise that I think Dr Jeremiah is wrong, even dangerously wrong. So it's no surprise that I feel it necessary to oppose ideas like his. You can attribute this to any reason you like; you'll probably call it “Satan's influence” or “spiritual blindness” or some such. But expect to be opposed.GMpilothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07189308176043748343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-70991907316587168942011-10-31T13:39:23.266-07:002011-10-31T13:39:23.266-07:00Christine said: “Christians know that Bible proph...Christine said: “Christians know that Bible prophecy points directly to Israel as being the focal point before, during and after the end times!”<br /><br />It is a privilege to know you Christine. It seems to me like believers are feeling the baptism of FIRE (Matthew 3:11) from the Messiah all over the earth today… as well as unbelievers.<br /><br />What’s the difference? Those who believe have HOPE!<br /><br />You are a blessing to the ONE body of Christ, because of the ONE God you serve… the ONE GOD of ISRAEL! Much love to you and your worldwide readers.
