Yes and we are all sinners therefore he came for the , and whole world and yes I sure do have a lot of work to do because I am not perfect but threw trials, tribulations, and temptations, I can grow from overcoming them.
Brother or sister please accept Jesus, I love you and he loves you more.
Your post, and your persistent proclamations reveal that indeed you've been hoodwinked into playing the role of devil's advocate for real.
The only tyranny God has is a tyranny of love, an indomitable, inconchorable love, but as we can see in looking at Golgotha, the height of Virtue is power, restrained.
You are thinking as man thinks, when the entire power pyramid has been inverted in favor of service to others as a "we" thing.
Satan, if there is such a one is about [I] and service only to self. He is no liberator and any rebellion if there ever was one, wasn't like the Declaration of Independence.
Don't be duped. Stay vigilent, because he's a tricky bugger who, if he could would have you hating the God of love even if such a thing flies in the face of all reason and logic.
God has gone rather far afield to retrieve us as lost children, so that we might enjoy the whole field in liberation.
If I was your friend and you saw my smiling face set on you, would you rage, ball up your fist and punch me in the nose for no reason?

Brother not to judge but I believe I can tell by the fruits that you bear and the words and the things in which you type. Out of the abundance of the heart comes either good things or bad things, a bad tree cant bear good fruit neither can a good tree bear bad fruit.edit on 13-11-2013 by 2WitnessesArrived because: (no reason given)
But what makes a difference is if the person was inspired by the Holy Spirit to write it which is a part of the Godhead trinity.
Because those angels had free will to make there own choices and Satan made a bad one and influenced the third of the angels which fell with him, therefore they reaped what they sowed. In a way the angels in heaven where tested just as we humans are tested and now Satan and his angels have fallen and now we humans are being tested and Satan wants us to fall with him and go to hell.

How can the Buddhist want you to extinguish a soul they don't believe exists?

I use to be in the occult worshipping demons before I turned my life over to Jesus Christ, trust me when I say that its much better on this side or to say the Winning side.
The flesh reaps destruction of the body, mind, and soul. The Spirit within true Christians reaps righteousness and life to the body, mind and soul.
You were "IN the occult" were you? lol
Occult means hidden knowledge... Not necessarily worshiping demons...
Interesting that you define it in that manner... but it is good to know you "used to" worship Satan... LMAO!!
Did you happen to know that Jesus didn't come to deal with the "righteous"... but sinners?
ye got some work ahead of you my friend

By tricking you into believing that there is no you and that you don't exist, or by eliminating the frame (family) by which the joy of being a real person is removed, while expunging all desire where the true nature of a human being or a real person is that we are a wellspring of desire.

Then you have no idea what the occult followers actually do.
Do you know left handed people, they were all called sinister at one time also. Those people who say "occult" know what they are talking about. This is one area I suggest to you to not underestimate nor take lightly. Pick on us Christians a bit more, but the area he is talking about, I suggest you stay away from.
I know people who practiced Santeria. I suggest you just simply keep picking on us Christians.
EDIT: You are really being ignorant about them. They already know every argument that you have and already know how to dissect everything you say. When I hear someone say "I was in the occult" I know what they mean and know that they do not have your best interest at heart.edit on 11/13/2013 by WarminIndy because: (no reason given)
