You're not coming to the point, where you crush the Devil consistently? I am saying there is a way of doing that.

I'm being optimistic about someone whose reputation unfortunately preceeds them (in the wrong way). Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy (Jesus). Would you prefer that I dread the life of someone, whose life is not mine to judge?

This is on the verge of being something very inspiring, I just don't see God responding to Creation as though His imagination was a 'given' in the beginning. I prefer to think that God woke from a dream, about Creation and Jesus started talking in His sleep, about Creating it. It takes a...

I think that what many people need to realise, is that we all have a quota of "correction" that we need to face, if we want our Christianity to be complete. No one has the Bible worked out, just because they believe. I rush into simplistic interpretations of Bible verses, without thinking much...

Turning away from the faith is of the Devil, that said, rushing in to the faith expecting everything to work together is not wise either. There is a chance that your faith will come back even stronger, but you need to commit more or less or repent (which is hard to work out). In terms of how...

Where does it say "the Devil is not always a snake, therefore ruling over him is irrelevant"?

Ok sure, but what do you call it? I suggested this to a reputable Christian organisation already, and they weren't interested. I agree love with a certain definition, can grow into something completely revolutionary, I just don't believe that that can be unexpected. Evolution does not take God...

Jesus Himself said "there will be people who join me in Heaven, who have nothing to do with the faith others expect" (Matthew 8:11) You can say "I don't believe in Jesus" all you like, that's not the required fact, to do the will of God. I'm not saying it doesn't help, I'm just saying if you...

I'm saying "he's not great" and "he will be in the lake of fire" - how is that not biblical?

Here ends the lesson of the Holy Spirit! What a clear exposition of the need for confidence in the Lord!

I want to be corrected too - this is a wonderful thought! I don't need correction on everything, but the idea that I know everything is obtuse!

You are overlooking that the pedophile no longer wants to molest. That does not mean the molestation did not happen, but it is still a great comfort to the one who was molested (that the pedophile no longer wants to molest).

This is pretty good mate, stick at it!

You don't want to force it as a rule, but as I said there are exceptions. The point is, when there are no other exceptions, adopting the baby is a legitimate right.

@Windmillcharge, you see @friend of 's post, right?

But there is a chance, that if he has faith, the fire will not burn him. I am trying to encourage you to forgive, or be understanding. We do not need to demonize the anti-Christ.

I don't know how you get "you don't believe in eternal life"? Eternal life happens in stages, that's what I believe?

Yes, that's basically what I am saying: there is a choice, of how we love. Not loving, until you have reached some unknown standard is not love. We should be loving even before we see, the change come about. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Yeah, you've basically cornered me with the idea that I am not the Holy Spirit - I'm going to wait until the Holy Spirit speaks to you in a way you are happy with. We can agree to disagree, but you still need to pray (what the Lord said). The whole point of this thread is to get people to...

Can you evolve "love", that is the question?
