Sadly i think you just described your own destiny!Do you believe in YHWH,(the God of Abraham),allah(who ISN'T the god of Abraham),buddha or just yourself?
What is there about this discussion that prompted your vile response?
Answer me this,what if you're wrong
" because you will know who he is,at the sight of his nail scarred hands
as you look into his eyes & realise the depth of the love,happiness & peace
you mocked & rejected.Is it worth the risk?
At the very least respect those who choose to hold to their faith in YESHUA in the face of the worlds mounting hate.

Hi watch/
It's a nice prayer!
There is always a short prayer that has been used for thousands of Years by Desert monks living at Mount Athos...Holy mountain,where they dedicated their life to prayer and fasting...there is no outside world for them,apart from their 'cells''(so to speak.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, Have mercy on me a sinner''
This prayer is said in the mind,all day and it becomes a type of meditation where it does not leave you.
It is practised by Monks and lay people.
It is similar to when one hears a song and can't get it out of their head?
The prayer is a reminder to one self, that we are humble servants of Christ and ask for his mercy toward our sinful lives.
When one is humble and considers oneself unworthy, God sees this and the demons go away.
Demons are known to use the 'mind' to make you believe that you have no sin and that you are in no need of 'Spiritual guidance' and when one listens to these thoughts that are put into the mind, one actually starts to believe they are 'worthy and proud' this is only the temtation of the Devil.
Why did Lucifer fall away from God?
He fell because he saw in himself that he could also become 'God'..there is only one God.
And so there was a WAR in Heaven...Lucifer fell and took many others with him who wished to follow..
Let us remember that the Mind is very open to temptations...this mind also connects with one's 'Soul'..
Learn from the early Desert Fathers who dealt with many upon many such temptations.
Take care,

You are designed to have free will,
all of your "problems" with yourself & with others can be laid at your own feet due to the free will process & your poor decission making.
( I say poor decission making because i'm CERTAIN you wont get mouthy with him when you finally come face to face no mater how petulant you are right now.)
Like most errant children you want to blame someone else when things aren't how you think they should be,the list of things you want to fault him for are a result of humanities fall from grace
for being a naughty boy.
"stoned to death"
26 "you you you!"s in the first half of your post there.

That's some thoroughly twisted, reaching, and assumptive logic. I think you should go with it.
So, you disagree with this statement ? yes or no -
If god is the creator of all that there is (omniscient/omipresent) there cannot be anything that is not created by the creator.

6 three score 6 is a time interweave code. I think. the first and last 6 are the sun and the middle 6 is the man or woman. I think..
Through the use of the Aviation support program called "Christian Air Corps", we will 1) Train missionaries and other persons from around the world to become pilots, and to utilize that skill for humanitarian outreach; 2) bring medical and dental aid to remote areas and villages that normally do without; 3) Provide disaster relief and economic relief flights to provide necessary food and fresh water to those in need; 4) provide mercy flights for times of bereavement or to receive medical treatment from centers far from home for those who have disabilities or difficulty in travel; 5) transport skilled and volunteer labor and supplies to remote areas for construction of habitats and dwellings to improve living conditions of less fortunate individuals around the world.

666 has been shown to be one of hundreds of errors in translation, the earliest copy of the relevant text reads 661.
Needless to say, as a result of this error, everything that has been written or claimed by xtians in relation to 666 is obviously BS.
Not that situations like this would ever bother xtian neighsayers. if jesus turned out to be real and came back tomorrow saying that people got his message wrong, xtians would probably crucify him all over again.
Current [Assyrian] demographic estimates are: Iraq, 1,500,000; Syria, 700,000; United States, 400,000; Sweden, 120,000; Lebanon, 100,000; Brazil, 80,000; Germany, 70,000; Russia, 70,000; Iran, 50,000; Jordan, 44,000; Australia, 30,000; Turkey, 24,000; Canada, 23,000; Holland, 20,000; and France, 20,000. Smaller numbers migrated to Belgium, Georgia, Armenia, Switzerland, Denmark, Greece, England, Austria, Italy, New Zealand, and Mexico. Chicago, Detroit, and Phoenix have substantial populations.
Because the Frankish kingdom dominated Western Europe for centuries, terms derived from "Frank" were used by many in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and beyond as a synonym for Roman Christians (e.g., al-Faranj in Arabic, farangi in Persian, Frenk in Turkish, Feringhi in Hindustani, and Frangos in Greek). See also Thai ฝรั่ง Farang.[21] During the crusades, which were at first led mostly by nobles from northern France who claimed descent from Charlemagne, both Muslims and Christians used these terms as ethnonyms to describe the Crusaders. This usage is often followed by modern historians, who call Western Europeans in the eastern Mediterranean "Franks" regardless of their country of origin. Compare with Rhomaios, Rûmi ("Roman"), used for Orthodox Christians. Catholics on various islands in Greece are still referred to as Φραγκοι, "Frangoi" (Franks). Examples include the naming of a Catholic from the Island of Syros as "Frangosyrianos" (Φραγκοσυριανος). The term Frangistan was used by Muslims to refer to the land where the Crusaders came from, i.e. Christian Europe.
