So it is all just a massive ego trip.

It is a judgment – a subjective opinion – on someone else's faith and religious knowledge and understanding.

You do it quite regularly, actually, with your comments about 'you and you are going to hell'.

Within the terms of your religion, it is not for you to judge the nature of another's relationship with god. Only your god has the right to do that.

Indeed, one might also point out Christ's teaching about not being seen carrying out your devotions – frankly, most of what you do on this forum is a version of that: 'Look at me – I'm the one with a relationship with Jesus; I'm the one who's right and you're all wrong and going to hell. Aren't I so completely the most wonderfully religious person you've ever seen?'

It's in Matthew somewhere – I think Jesus describes people like you as hypocrites.

It's not evangelism. It's showing off. And judgmentalism. Pure and simple.

God has no problem with correcting professing Christians when they are clearly wrong.

Matthew 18:15-17

Galatians 6:1

Titus 3:10-11

2 Thessalonians 3:15

2 John 1:7-11



They are if they are not born again. That is not my judgement, but God's Word.

.

See above.



I am not religious.



Biblically speaking, a hypocrite is a person who shows off but does not have a true relationship with God. I do have that relationship.



You are working for Satan. Don't tempt me.

"Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made."

[iJohn 1:3[/i

"For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him."

[iColossians 1:16[/i

In other words, according to the [iBible[/i itself, death and disease were created by god.

God's righteous and just reaction to rebellion.

Oooooooooo! "Don't tempt" you what, scary man?

Which, since he created everything (according to the [iBible[/i), then "rebellion" was also created by him – unless the [iBible[/i was telling porkies, of course ...

I do love this.

It's not the first time you've posted this particular bit of dribbling drivel.

I suspect it's because you realise someone else actually does have a clue about the bunk you're wittering on about and oh, you don't like that at all, do you?

You will no doubt recall that even Satan could recite and pervert Scripture.

I have nothing more to say to you.

Oh dear. You really don't like being challenged, do you?

Still, that means you get out of answering that last awkward little question, doesn't it?

If your god created everything, then he created rebellion too.

And you're an intellectual coward as well as everything else.

Best. Quote. Ever.

I think he's spotted my avatar.

It's brilliant though! I'm going to use it all the time now. I wish I'd not replied to Smokey all those times on the Assange thread now, all I needed to put was "No, you are wrong. You are working for Satan." and just left it at that!

It is strange since he has already answered this question in [url=http://viewtopic.php?p=17081247&tsmp=1345753285#p17081247this post[/url. The rebellion is an essential part of God's plan. Without it God would be unable to show his glorious wrath, mercy, patience, justice, grace etc.

Makes you wonder why he was getting so wound up with Satan's little helper, doesn't it?

Wonderful sig material.

Does this Satan bloke pay well? I could do with getting a bit of extra in before me holidays

And let's face it, Satan is way cooler than god. I bet he's funnier as well. How cool does it sound if you can go round telling people that you work for Satan?

Maybe a true relationship with God isn't quite so solid a foundation for faith.

The parties are way better!

He has the best music as well.

I bet the Christmas party is fantastic!

Hangover from Hell.
