(elmo;18454)
some how my last post got deleted. I really, truly believe that the verse: 1 John 4:7-8says basically everything about the subject and I will explain. God is love and we must aspire to be like him (although we are not perfect) and when it comes to defending ourselves and those we love we should plead or even beg for life and if that doesn't work run or hide and if there are no options left, then rely on Holy Spirit would be the best way to solve this issue. And one more argumentThe bible touches this subject when Jesus said that if you go to the alter and there have a quarel with your brother...go to resolve the matter then come back and give to god.God doesn't want fighting he wants peace.Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall inherit the earth.
it's good to see yet another that has ears to hear amongst many that choose not to, for their pride, for their allegiance to the iron that will be shattered to pieces at the last day.. elmo, never lose sight of what you have, for i tell you the truth ~ good things shall come to those that value love above all.. love is pure, love is true, love is kind & clear, knows no evil, knows no falsehood ~ love is all, love is the essence of our Father & time & time again throughout all the scriptures is this mentioned, for those that love are truly blessed & those who do not love stand against God & know not our Father.. love is our golden crown & we - as disciples of Jesus Christ - are charged in keeping his light burning brightly within us for everyone we encounter.. love, forgiveness, mercy ~ these are the qualities of heaven & everlasting life & may our Lord bless those who discover this truth..i have one thing to say, & that is to kriss ~ hey, beware of presumption...accusations of others "opinions" & claiming their blindness without knowing them are judgements in which our Lord has thoroughly commanded us not to do.. do not judge & ye shall not be judged, for the judgement that you do shall be made unto you.. here's something to consider for everyone to hearken & ponder...i tell you the truth, i have no enmity against anyone joining the military as prescribed by our Lord ~ it is the path you choose, so be it...however, the souls that join are not the issue, rather - it is the beast that the military body has turned into that i stand against, for it is no longer a defensive military.. what was once the United States of America has become the United Empire of the Little Horn & the military once known to preserve peace now serves as a global police, to invade for their leaders' lusts for political power & financial gain at the expense of murdered innocents, & there are other reasons but i'll not bring it up here..are your hearts so hardened that you do not see this? or perhaps you're aware of this yet choose not to address it for fear of being persecuted as unpatriotic? of a truth, i love my country & support its soldiers, but i don't support the beast the military body has become, for it transgresses the commandments of Jesus Christ.. do you think i'm wrong, do you think i'm evil for saying what's clearly happening around us? even your own soldiers have testified to the fact throughout this ordeal that something is very wrong, amongst your own ranks...have you never took a moment to investigate why they would say such things?
