    The good man that turned bad out of necessity

    Those weren’t hollow words @Mancunian. I wanted and needed you to be frank with me. Thank you for your honesty. It’s been a blessing to me. A moderator has said that it’s enough. I‘ll take the blame for getting you into that jam, which I did, by encouraging you to be frank with me. You said in...

    The good man that turned bad out of necessity

    I have no interest in nor intention of attacking @Mancunian, and I don’t have any complaint whatsoever about him attacking me. That’s an important difference between a follower of Jesus and an atheist. I want to model that difference for my readers. As for @Riven. I’m a pastor; trained and...

    I’ve written publicly and directly to him all day long. You haven’t written publicly and directly to him even once today. I’ve prayed for him. You can’t. I’ve prayed for you, for your wife, for your children. You can’t. There’s no need to mention what you’ve done to me. The spirit of Jesus...

    You’re so quiet @Riven. What is going on in your mind right now?

    “… [Takashi Nagai] was remarkable in promoting the Sermon on the Mount as the practical charter for world peace.” (Paul Glynn, A Song for Nagasaki, p. 212) The unbeliever doesn’t teach you what Takashi Nagai saw and understood Jesus is teaching you @Riven. The devil isn’t interested in world...

    Does your wife read the Bible? Does she know that Jesus is the great physician?

    Please tell her thank you for me, and that I’ve traveled extensively. Then tell her, if you haven’t already, that I teach, preach and practice the teaching and practice of Jesus and the apostles.

    My counter argument is simple: Believe Jesus and the apostles.

    You’re tripping. *** @Riven do you remember whether or not Jesus and the apostles believed God and the devil exist? Read what they say. Believe them. Believe what they believe.

    @Riven do you think “reasonable people who have faith” believe the devil exists? Have you asked them? If you haven’t, you should. My advice is go to the “Christians Only” forums and engage them in conversation on the matter. The unbeliever wants me to look at it. Do me a favor: look at it for...

    @Riven thinks that I am, and has plainly said so.

    The good man that turned bad out of necessity

    You let your mask slip. *** He isn’t here to learn about Christianity @Riven. He doesn’t want you to speak with Christians. He wants you stay away from Christians. See again post #990. He wants to teach you. He can’t harm me. He can destroy you. Talk to the non-pastor Christians who are...

    You’re a man characterized by doubt. This is spiritual warfare. I’m no stranger to it. I’m wearing the armor of God. What do you say, @Riven?

    The good man that turned bad out of necessity

    The devil, whom you don’t believe exists, couldn’t have said it better himself. *** The spirit of the devil is the spirit of the world @Riven. It’s the devil, not God or Jesus, who doesn’t want you to speak with Christians in general, and pastors in particular.
