If you study the old and ask God for the understanding it will lead you to the new with a thankfulness that God saw fit to provide us with a way back to him through the sacrifice and life of Jesus Christ.
There is but one way to God. Through Jesus Christ our lord.
He said "Take up your cross and follow me." Both the old and the new are necessary to the true understanding and fulfillment of Gods word.
Thank you SOC Am not sure to what extent I will be back.
For all who are interested I know what I prayed for those seven days. I am already seeing the effects of those prayers. When God says in our spirit to do something obedience is required, Rather men understand or not. Their isn't a person that I have met here who has not been prayed for Yet their is one that I pray for more then all. It seems that a burden has been laid on my heart. God has called this one before and they are meant to be his. You know who you are.... Jesus says to tell you he loves you.
So it seems my prayers are not at an end for those in this place. If we are the branches then his spirit should flow through us and others allowed to see the Goodness of God

Hunt, I am glad you are back You have much to learn my friend.
HUNT:
If you study the old and ask God for the understanding it will lead you to the new with a thankfulness that God saw fit to provide us with a way back to him through the sacrifice and life of Jesus Christ. Doesnt that really sound selfish and evil of your God? Just look at that statement!!!!
There is but one way to God. Through Jesus Christ our lord. This is similar to following one delusion into relusion.
He said "Take up your cross and follow me." Both the old and the new are necessary to the true understanding and fulfillment of Gods word. Where did he say that? 
Thank you SOC Am not sure to what extent I will be back. But you will
For all who are interested I know what I prayed for those seven days. I am already seeing the effects of those prayers. When God says in our spirit to do something obedience is required, Rather men understand or not. You become the whipping boy for God Hunt? Yes, "obedience" is required else you WILL be damned for an eternity!
Infinite Punishment for Finite Sins
God is perfectly just, and yet he sentences the imperfect humans he created to infinite suffering in hell for finite sins. Clearly, a limited offense does not warrant unlimited punishment. God's sentencing of the imperfect humans to an eternity in hell for a mere mortal lifetime of sin is infinitely more unjust than this punishment. The absurd injustice of this infinite punishment is even greater when we consider that the ultimate source of human imperfection is the God who created them. A perfectly just God who sentences his imperfect creation to infinite punishment for finite sins is impossible.
Their isn't a person that I have met here who has not been prayed for Yet their is one that I pray for more then all. It seems that a burden has been laid on my heart. God has called this one before and they are meant to be his. You know who you are.... Jesus says to tell you he loves you. Rather a very open and sweeping statement Hunt? You being tricky here? Very arrogant of you and selfish.
So it seems my prayers are not at an end for those in this place. If we are the branches then his spirit should flow through us and others allowed to see the Goodness of God How DARE YOU JUDGE OTHERS!!!!!
On one side we have wisdom and on the other side we have ignorance.

What did Jesus say or do? No one knows because no one wrote about him. Nothing was written because nothing happened yet we do know there are lots of people walking around pretending to be messiahs. Jesus was an invention based on a composite of previous man-god virgin birth, death and resurrection stories that happened many times before that were put together long after the myth says Jesus lived. There were no on going recordings of Jesus' life. If such a man lived there would have been lots of writings but all that crap came later. It was time to design a myth and thats what they did.

I choose not to carry a cross.
I hear they are really heavy.
I choose to rest in the sky-like nature of my mind.

The book of Revelation was not written on Patmos, it was written in Ephesia. But his visions began on Patmos where wild hallucinogenic psilocybin mushrooms grow. What a trip...

Once again...somebody has chosen to use a word or an expression, and apply it totally out of context from how it was originally meant to be used.
"But God is waiting with his arms open wide. You have the power to choose A better life for yourself. I'ts A god Given choice. On one side we have wisdom and on the other side we have ignorance. CHOOSE YOU THIS DAY WHOM YOU WILL SERVE! The choice is yours. The rewards and penalties of your choices are yours as well." --the original, by Hunt4luv, from the thread bearing the same title...in THIS forum--March 5, earlier THIS year.
"On one side we have wisdom and on the other side we have ignorance. CHOOSE YOU THIS DAY!" Not only is that very poor form knots, (who is the culprit.) I think it might even be illegal.

it doth puzzle me that so many choose to spend time decyphering parables and visions when Jesus puts the truth out in plain english or at least interpeted plain english. there are so many words of wisdom, so many words of knowledge, ignored simply to argue over semantics. if anyone truely seeks a true christian "brother", ask this question: what is the first thing/action that Jesus tells us to do? i have asked this question quite often! i will ask the OP that question. your answer will decide if you truely are my christian brother or simply another pseudo. what is the first action that Jesus requires of all christians, and actually, the action is requested of everyone! we be jammin

I think it might even be illegal i'm not an attorney, but common sense tells me that this is not illegal. if there are any attorneys here with specific case law, please email one of the mods.
ps if legalities are threatened, it wouldn't take much for us to completely eliminate this forum (and headache).

Thanks Mod.
I really wasn't certain. Not that I had any intention of doing anything about it. It's still not the most classy thing in the world to do.

Its also not very classy telling a young girl who thinks she's dying that its OK to die because she's a Christian.
