Surely you can comprehend the relevance to this thread.

No true Christian, born of the Holy Spirit, would ever trample the Blood of Jesus underfoot by professing Atheism.

in the first post in this series i discussed the identity of the watchtower as per revelation 13. the second post dealt with the identity of the harlot and the scarlet beast.
this post will deal with the third element "the image of the beast", lets read revelation 13:15-17:.
the second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed.
Cofty,
What I said to my born again friends was that I was concerned because I found it very difficult to pray for you. I asked for their help.
I wanted to pray for you but you had insulted me so much that I had anger that was making it hard to pray.
I never said I wanted you to die. If I remember correctly in my conversation with my born again friends I told them that I had to refrain from praying like king david in the psalms and calling down hell fire and brimstone on an enemy. Referencing that I felt like praying for you seemed like praying for Satan (because you are such an anti-christ.. against Christ) and very vocal about your distain for all things regarding God.
They helped me to see you in a different light. Not as my enemy but one that God loves and wants to reconcile with.

Cofty,
You are lying now, as I never said I prayed for you to die. That is an out right lie and you know it.

Cofty,
So those beautiful pictures of your house in the snow last year were not in Scotland?.. I was not aware you had left the country.
Band on the run... good thing you are not my judge.

Cofty, your very first post on THIS SITE 1-11-10 is titled "Another Scotsman Reporting for Duty".. so did you grow up in Scotland or not? Pioneer in Edinburgh or not.. ... lying then or lying now?... you are the one that is broadcasting personal details...
I do love Jesus, Tiz true.
I never prayed for your death. What I said was it is hard not to pray like King David did in the psalms. I considered you an enemy of the faith long before you posted you had cancer and my friends and I were praying for you (and Super punk) over a year before you posted you had cancer.
Your personal attacks and disparaging comments are dripping with hate. Your hatred for me has been evidenced by your words. As you are one who is perishing, I understand that I am the stinch of death to you. When your heart is healed, I will become the fragrance of heaven. (2 Corinthians 2:15-16)

Qcmbr,
Thank you for sharing your story with me.
I have been a member of this forum for a long time but never posted much here because quite frankly, some of the folks here were just out right mean spirited. I wish I would have been more active here when you needed someone who was not tainted by the JW experience to help you when you needed it the most. I was never a JW. But I loved someone who was a "born in". I understand that it is very hard to un-learn all the indoctrinations that come with being subjected to this cult. Mainly the doctrines that deminish the Holy Spirit and Jesus as being "less than" God are the core issues, all that other junk is just distraction from the real issues. If you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead (literally) you will be saved. You are not defective or lacking as you do not need to do "works" to be saved. Just believe God and trust him. Trust is a funny thing. When you can't "feel" Him, you have to trust His word that He will never leave you or forsake you. Trusting Him is especially hard when you have been deceived by a mind control cult that deliberately undermined that trust. You said you wanted to be used by God to help others and when God didn't give you some type of divine revelation you figured He must not exist because you didn't get what you wanted when you wanted it so badly.
Anyway, I am sorry you didn't find the answers you were seeking. I feel sorry also for the ones that put stumbling blocks in your faith walk. Those atheist that deliberately squashed your faith. The consequences for their words and actions will be harsh. (Matthew 18).
Cofty,
My "self-righteousness" is no better than a nasty menstral rag... Thank God I have Jesus' rightesousness. Whew! Thank you Jesus! (Romans chapter 3, verse 22 and 26 especially and Romans chapter 5 verse 17 especially)
I guess you didn't bother to listen to the song on Youtube... The Voice of Truth is The Holy Spirit.
As for wanting to pray for you with my "born again" friends, yes I used your real name as you were the one that "put it out there" Actually, YOU put it out there in one of your first post on THIS forum.. you even mentioned your specific kingdom hall .. and on that other site you even posted a picture of your kingdom hall... so "outing" you was not the issue. You outed yourself.
I asked my friends to help me to pray for you because you are such a hate filled person. I felt like praying for you was like praying for the devil. They helped me to see you in a different light and we would still be praying for you if you had not demanded we take the thread down.
You said that Science would save you and you would never give God the Glory for healing you of your cancer. That is why I do not pray for your body to be healed until your heart is healed.

Qcmber,
What was it that made you reject the "Corner Stone" (Jesus)?

Before I am accosted for using the term "farrow" (a litter of pigs) incorrectly...
I meant "harrow"...(breaking up and smoothing out the surface of soil)..
I tried to edit my post to change the "f" to an "h" but I didn't notice my error until after the time frame to edit my post had expired...
