There is almost zero in here that looks anything like Christ

Well said. Too many though, do not grasp that concept, but rather treat the forum as a single room. Which is also why, I try to respect certain "rooms". I must admit, I have failed, for I have responded before I realized in what "room" I was in.

Sword said:

Here is the problem. As soon as I say anything in love in here. You get hurt as can been seen in your responce and think I am like most people you have dealt with in life.

One I am not disgruntled as you asumme. I love all of you. And anything I say in here to you or anyone one is for your good. I dont need praise from you or anyone. So I dont mind what you say back. If any in here curse me I think wow that poor soul doesnt know who they are in Christ or they would not curse me. And I would pray for them.

The same old garbage That is spoken in here and in most churches around the world where there is no testimonies or little praise for God and that is because there are no testimonies. You are told these signs will follow believers . show me the signs in here? There are very few. and the ones that are in here from belivers, are ridiculled from christians with a sever lack of undesratning of who they are in Christ. Or the would not riddcule. This is really simple stuff. Living for Christ or in Christ is a lifestyle and thats all. We are to follow Him and do the things He done as commanded. Show where that is in here. You say its just a hobby. I get that. But If you knew what was a vailable . You would not call this a hobby. You would have testimonies to come and share here in public. Now see you got a couple of pats on the back by way of Likes for your post here. That alone tells me where the people who pat you are.

So there is only one point That I am not disgruntled. Its more like Man if these people could know what available and we arewalking in it together. There would be a lot less pity partys in here and in the churches.

I have been nothing but specific since I been here. Not sure why you keep missing my one solitary point

Sword,

I am definitely not hurt. I wanted some clarification from you as to what the specific issues are against the people here. I asked for dot points.

You state, 'One I am not disgruntled as you asumme. I love all of you'. These comments from your OP do not sound like love in action:

• 'its the same old garbage being regurgtated in here year after year';
• 'Little or nothing in here that will be keeped in the kingdon';
• 'all of the garbage being spewd in here';
• 'Its like you know nothing of Christ';
• 'the same self serving hurting people patting each others backs with a big there there there';
• 'You are all leading each other into a ditch again and again';
• 'Every one of you in here are standing in defiance as one who are able to teach';
• 'More tears of reget that Christ wil wipe away';

I found many of the comments you made in the OP were unloving. But you dare to say, 'I love all of you'. Do these words represent a demonstration of loving people on CyB: 'All of the garbage being spewd in here'.

This is not a church gathering...this is just a group of 'mostly' retired people who have too much time on their hands...gathering here to talk about the things of God...and also share what we believe or even what we don't believe.

Each board/forum has a different name ...as if each board is a different room.
Some rooms get more people gathering in them than other rooms.
That just reflects what conversation a person wishes to be having...or what is on their mind.
I can't find anywhere in the bible where praise, worship, or testimonies are legislated. That is why this forums has so many 'rooms' to choose to chat in.

Blessings....H

Regarding your last paragraph...
Would you say prayer is praise and worship?

Jesus did say to pray....

I thought this was the Testimonial Forum.

I believe prayer can be many things...it can be praise, worship, intercession, travail supplication...etc etc..

Yes indeed Jesus mentioned prayer.
But hardly something which forum are full of , which is the topic here.
He also mentioned

"If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it...."
" If you abide in Me..."
" I Am the Door, If any man enter in..."
" If you love them as I love...
"If you seek Him you will find..."
" If you believe in ... "
None of these things are legislated.

Your question?

Yep....and one must wonder why on earth Sword posted the kind of OP he made...HERE!!
It looks like it should have been in the Debate section.

Sword said:

So you telling me you live a double life. In here its not a reality and you dont live Christ like. But when you walk down the street you love people the way Jesus did? Your laying hands on the sick and h=setting the captives free. why that great man. But where are your testimoies? Please share them.

You know what’s funny.......everyone else who read my post understood my point without adding any wild extrapolation.

There are plenty of warnings against mockery in the Bible, Sword. Beats me why you feel compelled to impede your own sanctification by continuing to troll this site and rap everyone’s knuckles like a preVatican II nun in Catechism class.......

The formula under the law concerned sacrifice, not repentance

Thanks, now I remember...It said that weren't perfected by the sacrifices each year, because then the sacrifices would have ceased to be offered up......This is the point of Jesus though...He was offered up ONCE for all, and God accepted His sacrifice as 'payment' in full for mankind....This is what we find so hard to understand, that it IS a finished work, that we cannot muck it up, because His plan was so perfect ....It takes all the pressure off, when we accept it as something He has now done for us ( made us part of Him) that He will not undo

"Who told you that you were naked?" is not really being grasped here imo. Sounds to me like you went to a church at some point?

I'm curious now if you believe Rapture? too?

I left it for another while and came back for a look and its the same old garbage being regurgtated in here year after year. Little or nothing in here that will be keeped in the kingdon/ all of the garbage being spewd in here will be consumed and gone. First post i read is all you giving advice and recommending a couple go get councilling. Its like you know nothing of Christ. Soon as you read this it will be the same self serving hurting people patting each others backs with a big there there there. He will wipe away every tear. They will mostly be tears of regret for lack of knowledge or a willing to listen ear. There probly 5 in here with an ear to hear. You are all leading each other into a ditch again and again. Every one of you in here are standing in defiance as one who are able to teach. More tears of reget that Christ wil wipe away. I am sure He will wipe away my =tears aswell. But I would rather have tear because of a sometimes unrepentant hard heart. That tears of regret for doing nothing that will be a tesitimont in heaven that will pass through the fire.>>WOW>WOW>WOW and I have to give it another wow and the funny thing about the people that hate and belittle you, O>>YA<<>> They are hard at work on me , crying , spewing , belittling, Banning , >> As I sad there is nothing new under the sun with >>satan<< this minions are hard at work! But I was thinken?? If they don't like what some one has posted they read it they may like it or not and move on! But it seems like a satanic thing with them >>they all gather like black crows and start hitting you at all cost??>>Why?? Its a satanic thing as far as I see !Enjoy

I don't like a post I may put my 1 cent in and move on , but these people want to tear your flesh from your bone! and then move to your next post to do the same MMMMM
