There is nothing to be gained by following delusions, you are welcome to yours. I reject everything you express including your warning. This world is a cage and you are part of the lie...

The OP is not the word of God, it's a cunning deception, perpetrated to gain the attention and energy of people who are seeking after God.
Don't fall for this guy, I implore you.
"Through peace he [antichrist] will destroy the world"
Not saying the OP is necessarily the antichrist, just that he exhibits the requisite spirit of pride - and is seeking to place himself on a pedestal, as someone equal to, or more than God. Someone else tried that once - oh that's right, it was Lucifer/ Satan/ Beel'zebub.

No worries my friend. You have kept the thread alive and resurrected some gems.
It's been an interesting ride this thread, yes?
With Love,

My friend, the anti christ is ones own ego. It is ego that tricks one to not taking the time to read through a thread and learn about someone before they rush to judgement. If one was devoid of ego and took that time, they would see the many many times I stated:
look within for the truth.
Trust not men, they are liars.
Judge no one
Love all
Find your own truth
Be your own Prophet
and many similar sentiments.

Oh noes! Not the 'your truth - my truth' BS? That's a doozy. So a pedophile claims that his 'truth' is to abuse children and get some sort of spiritual ascension from doing so - is that okay? By your argument that would seem to be the case.

Be your own prophet? Historically, people who tell society what they want to hear are called 'false prophets'. Lulling them into a sense of security and making sure they don't address root issues of concern.

Satan quoted scripture at Christ. The demons were aware of who Christ was. And unfortunately for the human race, the antichrist isn't an abstract philosophical construct, he will be a real world ruler carrying a sackful of demonic agenda. I wish your answer (quoted above) was true, but it's not. Demons are real, they cannot be 'transmuted into beings of light', and anyone who thinks that a whole lotta lovin' is going to cure the demonic pyramidical infrastructure of society is sadly misdirected.

I think I'll follow your own advice and 'trust not men' as 'they are liars'.

The Spirit testifies to those things that are true, and your OP (and follow-up schmoozing) is not a message of truth, it is a deception which attempts to draw people into a relationship with you as 'vessel of God'. A lot of people are searching for answers - it's a grave crime against the order of things to claim to offer those answers, when you know full well it's all coming from your own flawed human spirit.

Sorry, but my opinion won't be changed - people who are being drawn in by your manipulative platitudes need to hear a voice of concern.

Pagans were here before christianity, So is there truly one God from your understanding of the pagan religion?
according to my pagan religion practices we have 70k gods and godesses at our disposal.
Hope you find what you seek in such a closed channel search!!!!!

The answer is to yield to the Highest Power in the universe and allow Him to look out for you
I avoided becoming a Christian as much as I possibly could. I thought it was staid, limiting and close-minded. One day, the world caved in around me, and I ended up crying out to God in desperation. He answered my prayer in a real and practical way. Not only did He prove His existence in one fell swoop, but He also removed the burden of emotional pain and confusion that had long tormented me. The world didn't change, but the way I looked at it did.

Since then I have had encounters with angels (real, actual contact in the real world), and a host of prophetic dreams and visions - some of which have already come to pass. I speak in tongues (the ability to pray in a language not one's own),

and I have been a part of deliverance teams who have cast devils out of afflicted individuals. Christ's death on the Cross was an atoning sacrifice for the souls of humanity. The power in that action is the literal power of God - the same creative force behind the Universe itself, poured out to save a trillion souls and change the course of their individual and group destinies. He became the substitute for the sin of the world.

Call out to Him for an answer - don't expect to find the answer within yourself without Him. We are not 'intrinsically God', or capable of merging with God to become as His equal as New Agers would have you believe, but the truth is somewhat akin to the Kabbalistic theology of 'individual spirits/personalities being joined to the Most High Spirit/ Personality'. He gives of Himself, not because we deserve it, but because of who He is, and how much He cares for His spiritual offspring, His creation.

Actually, he speaks the truth. If you seek God with all your heart and all your soul you will find Him. The challenge is to make it your imperative to find God--most people care about their pride or their reputation, so despite seeking God, they do not make it their absolute imperative, and thus remain unaware that there is something divine above us.
Just because you think it's crap doesn't make it not true. I too called out to God when my world collapsed around me. There was a real man named Jesus who did the things attributed to Him, including being crucified and rising. It's hard to swallow but it's the truth.edit on 11-10-2010 by 547000 because: (no reason given)edit on 11-10-2010 by 547000 because: (no reason given)
