Marines always stay with each other until the end. They leave no one behind, and part of this is what is based upon what I was taught when I went to Parris Island in 1990. Yes, on Sundays, you could hear a Navy Chaplain give a sermon, or you could clean the squad bay. I chose the first... I thank God for this, as I was in combat shortly thereafter, and again in 2003. I was UN-SAVED back then...
This is for many of you from Matthew 28: "And Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen."
musclemoney wrote: I believe God sent his only Son here to die for our sins. This statement is a sin, if you believe it, and are determined never to change your mind. And it will bring about death to your experience. In this way, Saul/Paul has stoned more than just Stephen. Everybody must get stoned, who breathes the fetid air of arrogant statements standing like stiff statues in the Son's holy temple. I believe that God is the CREATOR of Heaven and Earth. Whatever made Heaven and Earth to be one kingdom also made "good and evil" to be known as one "truth", ingested by the insane, eaten by the eaten, and believed by the bitten. If believed, this statement will bring death to your experience. But no more than an experience will it be. You will live to die again, until you eat the fruit of the tree of Life, and choose Truth over treason. I turn to prayer when I need answers. Pray to an idol, and the idol will answer. You will consume its answers with avid agreement, welcoming the death they deliver to your doorstep. When I die, I will be in Heaven for the rest of eternity. See now how an idols answers mock you, making death *the Door* to Life, and making hell out to be Heaven, reversing cause and effect. Life is the cause of Life. What deity is this "death"? What does it offer you that you worship its fruits as "Heaven" and eternally desirable? Jesus
Btw, I am a Mod on a large bodybuilding board. I don't usually go to the politics section, but this was at the home page, and caught my attention. Shouldn't it be moved to the politics/religion section of THIS board? I was looking for some TRADING psychology, and not this as I came across it. Last, if there are true Christians out there who have read my posts here, and understand my views, please PM me. We work well in numbers! I am a RIA with a little over $40,000,000.00 I manage, and am learning (oh yes, it's very different from writing covered calls and buying puts on 18-25 equities/ETF's!) how to trade index futures for when I leave the retail World behind, and persue my goals, while trading my own account. I'm a former enlisted Marine who went to College, then OCC (Officer's Candidates Course) later in life. I attend a Baptist Church in the Eastern U.S, and have many good friends, and family who attend Presbyterian Churches from Boston and N.Y all the way to Albania. (Yes, Albania is a mission we fund.) 2-3 years, and I'm finished with retail. No, I'm not perfect. I've been known to take a sneak peek at nakednews.com at the suggestion of "friends", as cnbc is horrible and worthless. I've been known to break my sobriety from time to time after attending funerals of Marines I once trained and/or served with... I'm not perfect, as none of us are... I'm open to a PM from a true believer though. We need to stand together (and tall!) these days! I hope all is well! Semper Fi to any Marines reading this! God bless
Do you really think the god-of-this-world would reveal its intentions for your long-term languishing in the lap of its ludicrous literature? The god-of-this-world writes the scriptures, scripting every scrap of your scurilous existence. I unwrite them, by reinterpreting "the law", as set down by demonic deities determined to destroy your mind with meaningless merry-go-round matters of mortality. Read between the lines. The writing is on the wall. Jesus
So you refute the BIBLE????? You have something the rest of the World does NOT know???!?!?!?!?!?!? Here is my challenge to you: prove your words! My prayer list grows once again...
Therefore you laugh by signing "Jesus" after your "posts," and put the laughing icon in there???? What Church would you say you would attend/agree with?
Read the letter of James, wherein he speaks of those who would bless and curse out of the same mouth. "Bretheren, this ought not to be". Then, read Paul, and see how often he blesses, only to be followed by a curse or some other threat. Who do you think James was talking about? Bitter and sweet water cannot come from the same stream. Question Paul's thought-stream. Jesus
