An Old Argument.... does it hold water?

    Well, I turn in my privileges to comment on this thread.
    When someone goes so far as to say that people must call upon the name that maybe 3 people in the universe know of, and stop expecting anything when calling upon Jesus, I would expect the Jesus people to call her out on that. Maybe they still will.

    That is actually a good point, but that is not exactly what SA is saying. She shares what she has learned and has drawn her closer to God. She says that HE revealed this name to her, and knowing that tells me that He must have been answering her prayers before she knew this name. Just as He has answered mine.

    Is Tec brave enough to defend Jesus from the assault of AG? AG has blasphemously claimed Jesus is not the son of God, that calling upon his name is the reason why there are no answers and that there is a different claimant to the title of Christ. Will Tec continue to make her bed with the decryer of Christ?

    I need that popcorn munching smiley here Poopsie!

    P.S. Thanks for the unintentional lolz AG - see what happens to the meaning of words when you misuse quotes, next time you can be "bothered".

    Where is there one safe place on the Earth from every possible natural disaster? O_o

    Dear OUTLAW's house, dear Uber (again, peace to you!). Surely, you knew that. Well, unless you consider bear attacks a natural disaster. In which case, folks should just refrain from feeding the bears.

    And can it hold 7 billion people?

    Hmmmm... you're right: we might have to add another bathroom

    If it can't do we just kill them off until we all fit?

    Nahhh, we should just let the bears do that. 'Cause it's more... well, "natural" shall we say. (Although, it could become a problem when we've eaten all of THEM up).

    All joking aside, perhaps you should research this rather than ask what you have. Even if we all lived in a place where the risk of ONE such disaster was eliminated... that would show SOME wisdom on our part. Translation: millions of lives saved? Stands to reason, then, if we choose places were, say, TWO were eliminated... or three... or four... and so on and so on. We (again, CHOOSE to) live... where ALL of them occur, however. Not all of us, though. Some... choose [more] wisely (SA waves to dear OUTLAW).

    Ennywho... peace... and a library card... to you!

    A slave of Christ,

    SA, who says to those who would argue that it would COST more... yes, it would... if we CHARGED one another, rather than SHARE all WITH all... yes, it certainly would...

    AG has blasphemously claimed Jesus is not the son of God,

    What "blasphemy", dear Q (peace!). The only ones I may have "blasphemed" against are those who claim that that IS his name... and teach others to believe that... by means of the Bible versions they print. And I should be concerned about that... because??

    that calling upon his name is the reason why there are no answers and that there is a different claimant to the title of Christ.

    Funny statement, very. I mean, first, aren't "YOU" the ones clamoring as to why there is no answer... why "God" doesn't answer... doesn't "hear" [all] prayers... OF THOSE WHO CALL UPON THAT NAME? Second, aren't YOU the one blaspheming against the Holy Spirit... by YOUR claim that God doesn't even exist... and so, by inference and default, neither does that Spirit? Which IS blasphemy against that One and which, unlike other blasphemies, including against "Jesus"... is unforgiveable... ?

    Will Tec continue to make her bed with the decryer of Christ?

    Ohhhhh... the hypocrisy. Good Lord... the hypocrisy. Talk about your "blind"... and, here, attempting to lead. Sure. Right.

    (Shaking head)... Ahh, well...

    A slave of Christ,

    KRAMER!!... uh, I mean, dear POOPSIE! WELCOME, girl... and peace to you!

    SA, on her own... ROFL... because her girl puppy, Liyah... is a bit of a "Kramer", too! She frequently comes running, crashing through the doorway, and sliding into the room, too! I can't help but laugh as it cracks me UP!

    SA, sputters, as she tries to spit dear WS' (the greatest of love and peace to you, too, girl!) lovely [flicked] hair out of her face - LOLOLOL!

    Oh Shelby I'm sorry! *runs towards Shelby flapping arms and swings her into a bear hug... Well as bear as I can get with my spindly arms* Lol!

    Peace my sister

    Thank you, dear SOG... and the greatest of love and peace to you! Unfortunately, I don't think those you've addressed your comment to WANT to get it... and so don't/won't/can't. Sort of "evil" to me, though... or certainly deceitful... how they're trying to "use" what I posted, though. Thankfully, and praise JAH... the Body is not AS gullible as these seem to believe (which they do because they keep confusing "us" with those they call "mainstream 'christians'". No comparison, though, of course).

    Again, peace to you and, again, thank you!

    YOUR servant and a slave of Christ,

    SA

    Jeff my feelings have been hurt BY YOU because you do not consider my post that says it's the fifth reason. The fifth reason is heaven will make world worse by interfering by feeding the people.

    Now N.drew...this takes the prize for most ridiculous option...how on earth could starving people, dying people be worse off???

    How is it possible to make the world worse by feeding people?...overpopulation? Didn't God already forsee this as a problem when he created us? So maybe this is part of HIS plan to control world population...now there's a thought!

    God supposedly fed the Jews manna in the wilderness...good enough for them, but not starving children.

    Aguest...Not calling on Jesus name???? Well that pretty much condemns the world doesn't it? It's a shame he doesn't make his name better known to more people...maybe they would stand a chance then...Is it a guessing game? Get my name right or you don't get the prize?

    Given this reasoning, I would hazzard a guess to say that myelaine is pretty much screwed if this is the case, even though she does good works and believes in God. Along with all the other christians who proclaim Jesus as their saviour. Guess they are no better off than an atheist.

    I am more and more convinced that if their truly is a god...we are nothing more than an experiment at best, or like a giant game of risk.
