><>.Jane, satan could never defeat those that are in Christ Jesus.><>
Jane what Glory does it give to God to constantly do battle with anyone?
The batlle you see on this thread now is quite tame and pales in comparison to some of the racists remarks which have been posted in the past by one poster. It was the reason we started up the Rock of Salvation...It is also the reason that many do not post at Ask God.... What a tribute to God.!....
Matt 18:7
7 Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!
8 If your hand or your foot causes you to sin cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire.
9 And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.
10 "See that you do not look down on one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven.
12 "What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off?
13 And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off.
14 In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should be lost.
15 "If your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault, just between the two of you. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over.
16 But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that 'every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.'
17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, treat him as you would a pagan or a tax collector.
This thread has seen much hate concerning the Jews, from at least one poster, and it is an abomination. What is going on now on this thread,is not new to this thread, nor to the world.
You seem willing to continue to want to awake a sleeping dog, well so be it.
There is too much need for love and compassion that is of God,(the good news)for me to be concerned with the hate that keeps rearing it's ugly head, particularly on this thread. I for one have no need or desire to keep it alive. I am too busy with the things of God to ever want to engage in such hateful battles with racists or any other hate monger labeling all kinds of people antichrists. That kind of language comes only from the Biblical iliterates and the holier than thou clan, and other hate groups as well,( you must know of them) they don't fool anyone who is of God. Let them spout their unholy lies and obscenities but let them spout it in someone elses ears. Mine are atuned to the Spirit of God, and in this I will not relent.
"Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world"
Defeated Jane, I think not.! I am though, Captured by concern with the love and grace of God, the magnificance of His precious sinless Son, who shed His precious blood for the sins of the world Jesus Christ, and the wonderous manifestations of His Holy Spirit.
As a servant of God I have much work to complete before He calls me home, and none of it involves battling with hate mongers, especially those, who with one swipe of an evil hand, under the guise, Jesus is Lord, would dare trash any of His word!... God help them!! God help them all!!
The word of God is loving and compassionate and filled with grace and hope......but this thread, except for a few posts, in the last couple of days reflects none of those things which are of God.!....This is a disgrace and an abomination to christianity and the name of Jesus....I will have no part in it!
And as it stands now I have already wasted far too much time on things that are not of my Father.
Luke
And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
