Someone who hides behind a screen name to badger people who share their love of Christ has no business calling anyone a coward.

[hitch0403]

Well i figured so many come out of the military screwed up many this contributes towards his nonsense.

Or maybe when he was younger his dad took a concrete statue of the virgin mary and hit him over the head with it.

[hitch0403]

It would have to have been a concrete statue cos the virgin mary didnt exist in his mind....LOL!!!

[Falconer02]

May I remind you that you're a screwed up individual who spouts nonsense door-to-door.

All members of FC use screen names in compliance with FC's posting policies, (no personally identifying information).  That means everyone, (including someone using a "jedi" 'nym), is "hiding" or no one is, you mental midget.  Brain-washed followers of religious superstitions are "hiding" behind empty faith fear; that makes them the true cowards.

Someone who hides behind a screen name to badger people who share their love of Christ has no business calling anyone a coward.

Anyway, sorry I digressed.  But these things, like even in here, tie in, with things happening today.  Even in the Bible, Jesus spoke of how believers will be mocked and persecuted, for His name's sake.  It's happening, whether in forums, in public, on tv, radio, and elsewhere.  

That's another bit of self-righteousness on your part; treating every other xtian on these forums as if they were 'defenseless children' who need your pseudo-'protection'.  They're not and you're not some forum protector/superhero.  What's occurred is not a you imagine; those who choose to proselytize their religious blind faith here do not have a free pass to do so unopposed.  If you ever learn that, you can take it or leave it.

You are absolutely right.  I am just a normal average person, like everyone else.  I'm a sinner and I love the Lord Jesus Christ.  There are many believers in here who have no need of back up.  There are some, especially newbies, who come in posting something that means a lot to them, only to get mocked and ridiculed for their posts.  Some of them don't need any help.  Some, however, do.  Any of us, who are believers, will stand for Christ, when and wherever needed, and will stand up for others, who need support and encouragement.  I need the same encouragement and back up, as well.

There are some who stand up to the likes of ridicule and mockery in here, and I'm just one of whoever steps in at the time to post.  Some posters don't like conflict and so either won't re-post after having had something said against them, or just go elsewhere within the forum.  I don't like conflict either, but I've had enough of your attitude towards believers, and will speak up whenever I need to or feel like I should.

 The believers who post are certainly not "defenseless children" and may not need my or anyone's help.  But believers stand by each other when needed, and that's what is happening at times, in here.  If you don't like it, that's perfectly fine.  It doesn't change how I or anyone else encourage and support each other.  Take it or leave it - your choice.

Such initially-posted religious proselytization is offensive to many non-xtians and I'm one of them.  Just as you have the option to post such mind-blinding religious propaganda, so too do others have the option to oppose such irrationality.

O LORD, our Lord ...

“He that is slow to believe anything and everything is of great understanding, for belief in one false principle is the beginning of all unwisdom.”
-- anonymous

Then don't open the thread - that will solve your little "irrational" fear of being insulted or offended, by Bible verses or comments.  You are making such a big deal over Bible verses "initially" starting something.  They are not starting anything, except what YOU choose to make of it.  You open the thread and come in - then you are letting yourself get offended.  The answer is easy - ignore, skip, or don't open.

[jcribb16]

Isaiah 26:7-11

The path of the righteous is level;
    you, the Upright One, make the way of the righteous smooth.
Yes, Lord, walking in the way of your laws,we wait for you;
your name and renown
    are the desire of our hearts.
 My soul yearns for you in the night;
    in the morning my spirit longs for you.
When your judgments come upon the earth,
    the people of the world learn righteousness.
 But when grace is shown to the wicked,
    they do not learn righteousness;
even in a land of uprightness they go on doing evil
    and do not regard the majesty of the Lord.
 Lord, your hand is lifted high,
    but they do not see it.
Let them see your zeal for your people and be put to shame;
    let the fire reserved for your enemies consume them.

   Those are sustaining verses, for sure.

What's occurred is not as you imagine; those who choose to proselytize their religious blind faith here do not have a free pass to do so unopposed.  If you ever learn that, you can take it or leave it.

You are absolutely right.  

Like I need you to verify that when reason is all that's needed to do so.

Any of us, who are believers, will stand for Christ, when and wherever needed, and will stand up for others, who need support and encouragement.

The FC forums are not specifically platforms for religious proselytization.  Although that's not expressly prohibited by FC policies, neither is standing opposed to such attempts to inflict faith-blindness on others.  Here's what is likely to occur; you mind-blinded empty-faithers will continue to spew superstitious nonsense and others will choose to oppose it.

[falcon9]

Then don't open the thread ...

Don't open the replies opposing your religious superstitions then.

[jcribb16]

I don't say this to sound mean or hurtful, because thats the last thing I would want to do. Still, one day we will all stand before Almighty God. That is reality. I will pray for you and I do hope the best. Whether you hate me or think poorly upon me, I will still pray you get saved.

You don't sound in the least bit mean or hurtful.  You have done what Jesus has asked us to do - to spread His Word to those who would believe.  Those who don't choose to believe are within their freedom to choose yay or nay - but you did great.  Praying is the greatest thing we can do for the lost and uncertain ones.  Great post!

And you think, as a Christian, that your comments are within the "golden rule" of Jesus's commandment to "love our enemies?"


Matthew 5:43-48

43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor[a] and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
