Apffft. Resorting to personal attacks. They says everything about you.

Larry needs to run for the next election. He'd do better than the other politicians.

I don't see any pictures at all. I don't mind God being depicted as "the old man in the sky". It represents wisdom and it's how most artists have depicted God. Besides, how else would someone draw God. The bible tells us that God made humans in his image. That could be taken literally and...

How would you draw God? Your very sure of yourself What does Gods spirit look like then?

It doesn't seem humble to me either Wrangler. Like when people say "I'm saved" past tense. To me it looks like arrogance and pride to be so confident and sure of yourself, as if they know and understand everything. They cherry pick bible verses to make their case but reject others that go...

No I disagree with you. I said faith and deeds go hand in hand. I am not in disagreement with scripture. Do you disagree with James? In James 2:26 he says "Faith without deeds is dead" Do you disagree with Paul? In 2 Corinthians 5:10 he says "For we must all appear before the judgment seat of...

Post #15 I said "Jesus also said something like, if you look at a woman with lust on your mind then you are committing adultery in your heart. But I can't control my initial thoughts, they just spring into my mind, I see a beautiful woman and lust immediately fills my mind. I don't think that...

If one has good faith but lives a life of bad deeds and unrepentant sin, will he be saved? Clue. All will be judged according to their deeds both good and bad It's better to have good deeds than bad deeds. And considering we will be judged, salvation has not happened yet to anyone on earth, it...

Yes that's basically what I said in a later post

To see how people respond

Yea I pretty much had the same thoughts. Moderation is the key.

Ok so we both agree about willful sinning and repentance. It's this phrase "Sin has already been dealt with at the cross" that I don't quite understand. Can you please elaborate on what you mean by that? @MatthewG

Is gambling a sin?

Yea sure I have, quite often. I think everyone has had a lucid dream before Jesus also said something like, if you look at a woman with lust on your mind then you are committing adultery in your heart. But I can't control my initial thoughts, they just spring into my mind, I see a beautiful...

Sometimes. It's known as a lucid dream. Have you ever had a dream that you were dreaming? It's known as a false awakening and it surely is something unusual
