@Lionel-Hutz saidSo what, then, is the reason for your existence, do you think? So that some non - existent 'Lord' can keep on saving you? About time you took some responsibility for your own 'existence' don't you think?
I cannot count the amount of times that His hand, in His mercy, has prevented me from being destroyed. Near death experiences, depression, poverty, and countless heartbreaks that would destroy many. And, still, I continue to make mistakes. And, still, He appears again and saves me. No matter how tired I am, at this stage in my life, I endure by His grace. Faithful, always ...[text shortened]... me, merciful--I simply cannot count the times He reminds me that there is a reason for my existence.

Sorry, I’m jumping in. For me It’s to learn and grow in him and his will for continuous growth and movement forward while here. This isn’t the end after we leave here and our physical bodies disappear. I’m sure God has plans for us after this life to whatever extent from this movement here now. This could be phase one or 100, but our lives do have meaning. Faith, trust, growth and development in him, to be more like him and more is what we learn here like training for the next level to come.
Psalm 71:5-6
For you, O Lord, are my hope, my trust, O Lord, from my youth. Upon you I have leaned from before my birth; you are he who took me from my mother's womb. My praise is continually of you.
@moonbus saidI know, I get tired of these types too. They have rules, rules and more rules. Then they say, oh, they're not my rules, they're God's rules. They don't realize what they're saying when they say this. It's all about their judgement, which they claim is God's judgement. In my philosophy, they've got some surprises coming.
It is for KellyJay, and he’s not the only one.

What annoys me is a person who clearly picks and chooses what they want to accept in the Bible and disregards the rest. Bu bu but the Bible is only about love, let’s go to our own church which is falling apart where we can do what we want and it’s ok and disregard not overcome. You should be ashamed, you piss on Gods word to suit yourselves and anyone else who doesn’t agre ...[text shortened]... whole Word of God. Your a dumb little girl who needs to wake up and get your head out of your butt.
This is exactly what I'm talking about.
Forget about what Jesus actually taught.
Make it all about your own personal judgement.
And no, that's not God's judgement.
Yeah, as I said, look who's talking about his own hatreds. Be like me, or I'm gonna hate you. That's not what Jesus was talking about. Some people just don't get it.

@Suzianne saidFool, your Luke warm playing the victim card spewing more lies. Why do you dismiss so much that goes against you wants and needs. Again, do you love me Suzianne, or do you spew hate nonstop. I don’t hate anyone, I can love the sinner and hate the sin. Every time you speak you’re a hypocrite by your own words, you only love those like you. Tell me why you overlook so much, tell me why your church is disappearing?

My church is doing very well.
You do realize that it is people like you that is causing this worldwide movement away from Christianity, right? Your church is no different than my church, in this regard. Go back and read Bishop Budde's words to Trump that day. She was trying to expose Trump to the teachings of Jesus. Empathy for those who have nothing. Empathy for those most at risk for bad outcomes of his policies.
Matthew 25, my man. People like you blow that off. It was one of Jesus' core teachings.
But you know that.
@Suzianne saidYou never answer fool, just spew more nonsense. your church is disappearing, even the main man over it said so, numbers keep drooping do some research, I did. Its because of transferring into a woke lgbtq activist agenda driven hangout. They teach parts of Gods word while ignoring what doesn’t fit into lifestyles and agendas people are leaving. Buddy is a perfect example of this, a flake activist, not God driven, that’s why no one answered your ignorant thread. It’s understandable why you think she’s great and follow her but I laugh when you mention her name.

@mike69 saidSexual perversions has to be a problem in many religions. In this case ofr homosexuality it is best to leave the sexual deviant to their own devices, and let God judge them, in my opinion. However in the case where they are promoting homosexuality as an acceptable lifestyle, and drawing more people along with them, and churches are doing it, this has to be one of the gravest of sins that will not go down well on the day of judgment, and if true Christians do not call this out then we are guilty.

Im taking some comfort that Christianity is far from the worst of the lot. In some recent readings of Islam, both the Quran and the Haddiths, I came across
- Heaven, for the faithful Muslim man is a place where he enjoys 72 virgins, with a dick that is constantly erect, and the women never satisfied, neither are they ever deflowered. He has the virility of 100 men.
- Rape is an acceptable form of punishment
- Homosexual partners have only one sinner, its the taker, not the giver.
- Prostitution for an agreed period is acceptable.
- Marrying a child is acceptable
- Sex with a goat is acceptable if there are no women around.
Who thought up these things and wrote a book about it? It must have been some horny goat-herder during a war and there were no women to rape, clearly.

Yes I agree perversion is everywhere, and has been in religion to a lesser degree than now. The woke liberals and lgbtq community is making it acceptable where no atonement is necessary at all leading to a breakdown of the church in main stream religion and Gods followers creating destruction of families and lives. The problem with this is where this virus is also seeping over and changing mainstream society like in sports, restrooms, locker rooms, and children being influenced to believe their something their not and destroying their bodies at young ages without parents permission or knowledge. As you see in sues church Christian religion and beliefs are being overwritten, and changed to activism and agendas, this is why we can’t leave them alone to their own devices. The videos show that in sues church there is more lgbtq activism, hate and decor than teaching the word in them with the exception of “Lord hear our prayer”. Not to mention indoctrination turning these children into future haters and activist for the cause. A person dressed as a dog to give a sermon because he thinks he’s one, I wouldn’t know whether to call the pound or throw a scooby treat, thank God there wasn’t someone dressed as a cat in there.

Again, I definitely agree here as stated above. We have to stand up to this for our children, and grandchildren’s future and way of life. We need to grow some balls before it’s too late and our children grow up in a dystopian future with no hope or God in the picture, just false teaching and lies. Look at schools adhering to this and teaching our children it’s ok and good. Many schools went to the pride parades with young students and or had their own. They witnessed this perversion with school leaders showing support for diverse sexuality and mental illness. How long do non believers and Christians have before it’s past the point of no return where the minority controls the majority.

Yes this is very wrong and sick, and I’ve seen it crushed in Christian debates with radical Islamist. It’s also sick these liberals who support terrorist. To see what could happen here in the US to a larger degree with guns available here, look at England for one. There are many videos on YouTube with him on the streets besides this one.
