I just love it when so called "christians" who support homosexuality point fingers at real Christians about being intolerant. They should read the words of the writer of the Book and stop listening to their liberal sheep in wolves clothing shepherds,

Look at Jesus words and take offence!"And whoever will not receive you, when you go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet as a testimony against them." Luke 9:5

Recieve the testimony of Scripture or refuse it it is your choice Christians are not forcing you to accept it, just lovingly stating the words of Scripture, true to its testimony of its self.

You will find Jesus to bbe the most intolerant of all "Christians" on judgement day

Its a shame that one of the foremost dictionaries in AMerica's history founded by the Christian Noah Webster should redefine marriage.

Its time to whip the liberals out of temple, if changing money were not so bad now they want to redefine the English language?

Come on my American brothers and sisters stand up for your GOD and King, or will the future only record how our generation became soft, weak and unconcerned for the King we claim to love and serve.

Will the real Christian please stand up!

Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and Al Gore might be sincere but they are not Christians.

Christians know that GOD condemns homosexuality (Sodom & Gommorrah) and that the scripture teaches in 8 (eight) different places against homosexuality.

Come on my American brothers & sisters your history as a Christian nation is a proud one, with some mistakes yes, but you have been a light shining on a hill, Salt among the nations, please take right ground, we are praying for you.

Thousands of Pastors Applaud Huckabee

If I were American I would vote for Mike Huckabee

Yes that he claims that he is a Christian is no safe guard for what he does in the future (Maybe he will take on China like Pres Bush took on Iraq), then again with China soon to take over from America as the worlds super power America in my opinion would be better off with a President that would not disarm his country as the Democrats have done so well.

If ever there was need for America to arm it self morally and physically it is now, if I was a young American I would vote for Mike. Either way remember that GOD has the heart of kings and Presidents in His hand and He turns it which ever way He will, I am praying for your nation, and know that whoever becomes President it will be as GOD purposes, to a blessing or a curse on your nation.

If I was a Liar but not a practicing liar would I go to heaven?
If I was a thief, but not a practicing thief would I go to heaven?
If I was a GOD hater but not a practicing GOD hater would I go to heaven?
If I was an adulterer, fornicator?
If I disrespected my parents?
Abused Sunday?
An Idolater ?
But did not practice these things, would I go to heaven?

For out of the heart come all these things, GOD does not judge as man He judges the heart.
Will HE judge me innocent or guilty?

jlcboi23: I believe in GOD the Father......

Q. 10. What are the personal properties of the three persons in the Godhead?

A. It is proper to the Father to beget the Son,[36] and to the Son to be begotten of the Father,[37] and to the Holy Ghost to proceed from the Father and the Son from all eternity.[38]

[36] Hebrews 1:5-6, 8. For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.... But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
[37] John 1:14, 18. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.... No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
[38] John 15:26. But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me. Galatians 4:6. And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

jlcboi23: Farther argument taken from the Westminster Larger Catechism

Q. 8. Are there more Gods than one?

A. There is but one only, the living and true God.[34]

[34] Deuteronomy 6:4. Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD. 1 Corinthians 8:4, 6. As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.... But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. Jeremiah 10:10. But the LORD is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king: at his wrath the earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to abide his indignation.

Q. 9. How many persons are there in the Godhead?

A. There be three persons in the Godhead, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost; and these three are one true, eternal God, the same in substance, equal in power and glory; although distinguished by their personal properties.[35]

[35] 1 John 5:7. For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. Matthew 3:16-17. And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Matthew 28:19. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. 2 Corinthians 13:14. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. John 10:30. I and my Father are one.

jlcboi23: I enjoyed reading this, however I do not agree with you, and put it to you

But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God, and said, "Look! I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!" Acts 7:55-56

Perhaps Stephen was a little confused, or Trinitarians have changed the scripture to support their argument.

Candidates Asked to Reject Divisive Religious Talk

The basis of true Christianity is the Holy Bible, it is the sole source of true and good Christian doctrine and supports my belief in Jesus Christ and in the redemption He offers me from the wrath (anger) of a great and loving GOD who sent His Holy Spirit to guide me and all true Christians into all TRUTH.

Studying the beliefs of Mormons, Jehovah’s Witness and Roman Catholics, beliefs found in their supporting books and extra biblical sources the Catholic Catechism, Pearl of Great Price, New World Testament.

I see very different doctrines to those taught by the Apostle Paul and for that matter Jesus. For this reason I do not believe that the above organisations are Christian and they are dishonest in claiming the name Christ for them selves, they are if anything Anti-Christ.

We have Muslims here in South Africa claiming that they believe in Jesus, but this is not according to what the Bible teaches but the “Jesus” or Issa that the Koran records. Jesus taught that He is GOD, the Koran does not teach this, and neither do Mormonism or Jehovah ’s Witness, and the Catholics prefer to approach GOD through Mary, instead of obeying Christ’s instructions to approach GOD in His name Jesus.

Paul writes Timothy the following:
“If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which accords with godliness, he is proud, knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes and arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions,
useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself.” (1 Timothy 6:3-5)

and again “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.” (2 Timothy 4:3-4)

Now for a controversial New Testament verse check it out in your own Bible if you dare at
Luke 22:36. Please note that I do not hate Muslim people, I do hate hypocritical Christians, I realize that hate is a strong word, but I might draw your attention to Psalm 5:5 in this regard.

Other than hypocritical Christians I love all of the people GOD has put in this world, and I am motivated by my love for them to warn them about hell and that the only way for them to escape hell is trust in Jesus.

That controversial scripture is:
"Then He said to them, "But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one." Luke 22:36

Jesus encouraged His disciples to get swords, now dishonest super spiritual "Christians" will call this sword the Bible no friends the word sword is a real sword. Check verse 38 of Luke 22 Note that Jesus does not rebuke the person with two swords.

My purpose in life other than glorifying GOD and enjoying Him forever is to make disciples of the nations, and to preach Christ.
However if any person criminal or otherwise (terrorists Muslim or Irish Catholics) threaten my life or that of a innocent stranger I am duty bound by a loving GOD to defend my life and others as necessary.

Should I go to a Muslim country to preach the gospel, I will not take a sword with me, I would be prepared to turn the other cheek and give my life for Christ if He calls me to do so.

Muslims are not prepared to accept peaceful co existance with Christians, the Koran does not allow it, and it is an unfaithful Muslim who says otherwise, keep in mind that deception is a form of JIHAD or holy war, I wonder about the true intention of those Muslim scholars who sent the letter seeking peace, they have got all "stupid" Christians confused. Remember the lessons of history how supposed Christian Germany talked peace while preparing for war taking over Poland and Austria while America and Britain believed the rhetorical peace.

Love Muslims but do not trust them, preach Christ to them, they will go to hell unless we do.

Even here in South Africa we know that the crusades were nesessary. The Koran says that muslims can not be friends to Jews and Christians, what can be clearer than that, the only time a Muslim (A true muslim) can be your friend is if that person is liberal in his belief like so many Christians (Rick Warren, Bill Hybels and co)

There is only one GOD and He is revealed in three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
I for one am impressed with Ps Mohler.

By GOD's grace it would appear that there is a revival of Calvinism here in our country, having grown up in Assembly of God Church our have found Calvinism and reformed theology most refreshing and a wonderful boost to my faith and life.

The Westminster Confession and related Catechisms are the best tools for instruction in the Christian faith after the holy Bible.

A great DVD on this subject is The history and theology of Calvinism by the apologetics group easily obtainable in the USA.
