Drugs have infested many of the cities in the USA and you would be wise

to the Judgment. And it is certainly not wise to antagonize these crazies.
Just saying.

to the end, instead of committing suicide like Judas.

That does not answer the question Manny. Nobody wants to know what will happen to someone who has accepted Christ and has a good heart. We know the answer. Plus we all know what we 'should' do.
What if someone accepts Christ and is 'saved by grace' but continues to sin?
And its not about grace v works. They dont oppose each other. They compliment eac ...[text shortened]... tar? Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? [/i]
Still very good subject.
I would venture to say we are not justified by works alone either for God see our works done in our own pride and vanity as filthy.

I have to respond to my post. As much as I don't want to I have to apologize to RJH for calling the man stupid. It goes against my grain but he has a view that a few others also have here so I can't single him out as it wouldn't be fair.
But if you guys only for a second of your time would stop and think about these comments that the JW's irritate, or ...[text shortened]... doing this.
Being nice does not mean you agree but it sure makes our day better.
Subsequently some Jew comes knocking on his door telling him that he must be circumcised otherwise he cannot be saved.
You are like the disobedient Jews who tell people they have to do or believe things not preached by Christ or Paul.

I think the simplest thing to do is stop knocking on peoples doors to
peddle the Watchtower propaganda for them. There are many other ways
they can advertise these days. There is no need to antagonize your
neighbors or put yourself at risk, etc, anymore. Just stop it. Use common
sense like Christian church organizations do. JW's and the Mormons
are the only ones that require this type of proselytizing.
Originally posted by RJHindsI agree with that caution. We do use common sense in those situations believe me. And there are even a couple countries around the world that we hardly ever go into and if we do it's very undercover and we know if we get caught it could turn out bad..

Originally posted by menace71The confusion in salvation is not understanding who this applies to. Not all humans are offerd this salvation. It's only the ones who will be going to heaven to serve as Kings and Judges with Jesus. No humans on earth will ever be given immortality as none before us were ever offered that blessing that have the hope of living on this earth.
