no problem, dude
Your way of thinking is but for a season--a flash in time. However, a TRUE Christian is an immortal being who lives forever. So, thinking as God commands is truly living, everything else is a slow demise to death.
And just think about it, if man had not of fallen in the Garden, then all of those things you mentioned would not even be necessary. But your free thinking mind can't comprehend something so simple. BTW, Satan was a free thinker too, and you know what his end will be. Every man present, past and future can say or do as they please(free will) for their finite number of years on earth. But when deaths knocks on the door(and it will knock), your arrogance, blasphemy, know it all spirit will cease and be judged.
2 Cor. v. 10. For we must all appear before the judgment-seat of Christ, that every one may receive the things done in his body according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
Think about this...God, out of profound love for you--a vile sinner who has transgressed His commandments--let His own beautiful, dear Son be sacrificed for YOUR sins! Jesus wasn't a sinner. He didn't sin one time. He didn't die for Himself. He died for you. To save YOU. That's why He is called the Saviour. Because He SAVES from hell! If you reject His sacrifice and trod it underfoot it should not be too hard for you to understand that the same God who sacrificed His beloved Son will expeditiously cast your rebellious hind parts into hell and the lake of fire. NOTHING unclean will ever enter God's heaven--and all unregenerate people are unclean.
thunderbolt,
you really do make me giggle. every day i can expect to see a barrage of your religious replies in these threads...complete with quoted verses from the bible.
funny stuff
The Bible says that God loves you so much that the Creator of this universe (Jesus Christ) came to "taste death" for every man. Jesus wasn't just some baby for a manger scene. He is God come in the flesh to destroy the power of death and hell--He holds the keys, people! If you say yes to Jesus, hell won't be your final destination. If you say no to Jesus, hell will be your eternal home. There ain't no getting out and no comfort--it's everlasting.
Regardless of whether you believe it or not, hell exists and the Bible says that it is never full. I've heard folks say that hell is not mentioned in the Bible or that hell is just the grave. Well, let's take a look at what the Bible says. Here are a few scriptures that deal with hell and the lake of fire (at the final judgment, hell, death and those not written in the book of life will be cast into the lake fire):
Matthew 25:41 (Jesus speaking to people at final judgment), ...Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels.
Revelation 14:11, And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night...
Revelation 20:12, 15, And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life...And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Matthew 10:28, And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Luke 12:5, But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which AFTER he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

hahahahahahaha
Yeah, in 2001 roughly 20,000 children died of malnutrition or outright starvation. Another 20,000 died of preventable disease.
Give or take, a million or more are sold into slavery or prostitution.
All of this because some chick ate an apple and did who knows what with a banana.
Hell, in America at any one time there are 100,000 kids with an average age of 8 that are adoptable that sit in foster care.
Seems to me like if people really acted on what they are quoting then none of these children would be neglected.
It also seems to me, lf people were truly serving the lord this number would be 0. Lot's of people would take vows of poverty and serve serve serve, so they might live in eternal bliss.
