No, Stu, I never said that. I said I have a relationship with God. I do agree with you, when you wrote: Good thing that God is real! Imaginary friends don't interact with you. God does interact with His own. Imaginary friends don't give you promises and then keep them. God has written many promises to His followers and He is faithful to keep them. Imaginary friends don't orchestrate circumstances to reveal to you that they are caring about you and have control over every situation and are listening whenever you talk to them. God does intervene in life's circumstances to make the believer aware that He is listening to them, taking care of them, in control during difficulties, and loves them. An imaginary friend would be limited to the imaginations of one's mind. God is outside of one's mind and reveals Himself to the believer. Something you and those who have never come into a relationship with God have never experienced. And guess what....I am not alone in my observations of God's presence involved in my life. Many can also testify to similar experiences. What you think seems creepy is actually the most wonderful thing that can ever happen to a person. [Jesus said] "The one who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and reveal Myself to him." John 14:21 [Jesus said] “If you love me, keep my commands. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever— the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you." John 14:15-17
Even with all of your verbiage, not a single quote. I posted a SMALL SAMPLE of your NUMBEROUS trollings. They speak for themselves. I'm surprised you haven't been kicked off the platform yet, as is what can happen when users practically use the site with no intent to discuss even 'some' trading. There are no clearer examples of a user without motives to discuss trading than yours.
Get over yourself. This is the ET Forum on Religion and Spirituality. There is no precondition set by Baron (who in case you hadn't noticed owns this site, not you) for users to post on other subjects than trading. That's his prerogative, not yours, you puffed up sanctimonious supercilious prick (no offense ). Don't be such an idiot. You have me on ignore but you read my posts. You make angry responses to them. Every one of your posts to me in here is a "Quote". They present you as a triggered troll, with your pants on fire, projecting your own triggered trolling
Exactly dude and in what is known as reality, God is the very definition of an imaginary concept. Again,exactly dude, God is in fact limited to the imagination of anyone's mind. You're certainly not alone. Neither are little children on their own in their observations attesting to similar experiences with their imaginary friends. They, like you, are right 'cause their invisible friend says so and you similar, backed by the giant God sky fairy. Like everyone you're conscious (you are aren't you?). You have an ego. They are common to us all. Even kids. God is just a proxy for ego. Some people simply grow up.
He's said as such. Ask him. Once again, you started responding to my general posts after I first blocked you. As long as you keep responding, so will I.
Nevermind, I'll ask. @Baron , with respect to posts: 337 https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/god-is.359932/page-34#post-5492394 and Please repeat what you've stated in the past about members using the forum for mostly other uses; and seldom/rarely for trading discussions.
So why have me on ignore when you're going to keep reading and responding to my posts? Exactly what do you think the word ignore means? Neither yourself or studentofthemarkets can offer rational or reasoned argument to support preposterous religious claims. So you want to shut me up. Interesting how religious zealots thro history tend to adopt that mindset.
Once again, for multiple times, when you respond to my general posts, after I have put you on ignore/block, I'll reply. Simple. Stop responding to my general posts, and stop responding to me specifically, and I'll certainly have nothing to say to you.
These verses come to my mind often when in difficulties and also when all is well. When all is well, the verses remind me that my happiness isn't dependent on pleasant circumstances and that what really matters is that I belong to God and He belongs to me. This understanding gives me peace and happiness. Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. Habakkuk 3:17,18 Excerpt from Our Daily Bread, "Joy in Hard Places," https://odb.org/2019/03/18/joy-in-hard-places/: Habakkuk wasn’t experiencing easy circumstances. As a prophet, God had shown him coming days when none of the crops or livestock—on which God’s people depended—would be fruitful (3:17). It would take more than mere optimism to endure the coming hardships. As a people group, Israel would be in extreme poverty. Habakkuk experienced heart-pounding, lip-quivering, leg-trembling fear (v. 16). Yet despite that, Habakkuk said he would “rejoice in the Lord” and “be joyful” (v. 18). He proclaimed His hope in the God who provides the strength to walk in difficult places (v. 19). Sometimes we go through seasons of deep pain and hardship. But no matter what we’ve lost, or wanted but never had, we can, like Habakkuk, rejoice in our relationship with a loving God. Happy Thanksgiving! (to you, too, Stu!)
Obviously you're past reasoning, not even able to see how irrational you're being. You putting me on ignore then not ignoring me but telling me to ignore you! Couldn't make that shit up LOL. I didn't even respond to what you call one of your general posts and you still trolled me. And No, I won't stop responding to you specifically when I think you've made yet another one of your nonsensical comments or ridiculous religious claims you cannot justify with rational argument. Simpler.
