Thanks for the really great comments by all...really thanks. Much appreciated, and I'll pass them along. Psalms sounds like a good idea.

"For it is IMPOSSIBLE for those who were once enlightened and have tested the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the holy Spirit, and have tasted the good work of God, and powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify for them themselves the son of God , and put him to an open shame."
This is what concerns him. While backskidden, and doing all he did, shaming the Holy Spirit within, could the Holy Spirit have left him, after having tasted the good things, and turning back for a season, not being able to be renewed now no matter how hard he seems to try? I read about David and others who murdered and were adulterers, etc, but all ended well, however, I don't think they fell flat back into the old ways either. Sin just got the best of them at times.

Hey US,
Glad to hear that things are going well and that God has surrounded you with folks who are excited about HIM! Things are going well here. I see God at work in various ways. Mostly seeing my need to stop relying on me and relying only on Him. When I reflect on myself, I understand ever so clearly why Jesus refers to us as sheep. Prone to wonder aimlessly and to great destruction were it not for the great and gracious hand of our Good Shepherd. He is our hope. He is our strength.
Not what my hands have done
Can save my guilty soul.
Not what my toiling flesh has bourne
Can make my spirit whole.
Not what I say or do
Can give me peace with God
Not all my prayers and sighs and tears
Can bear my aweful load.
To God be the glory in His flock.

What am I missing? You stated "But it's true, plain and simple what they told you."

And, “So sometimes comments like the one made to you are out of love, and not hate/problem with a particular person, just a warning about their falsehoods that have been witnessed by many of Gods beloved here.”

Please post the date and time of the response to my post.

BTW, it is hard to offend me anymore. I'm just a learner who wants to keep growing in the grace and knowledge of Christ.

THIS WE ARE TOLD:

Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.

For death is come up into our windows, [and] is entered into our palaces, to cut off the children from without, [and] the young men from the streets. (Jeremiah 9:21)

GO ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, (even) unto the end of the world. AMEN (Mat. 28:18)

The Gospel is the power of God unto salvation and his goodness leads to repentance.

He that goes forth weeping, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves (with him). Psalm 126:6

And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. (Hebrews 2:15)

Let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness.

We all like sheep have gone astray.
But God has been good to us and in his kindness laid our iniquities upon another.

Exactly. Why do we always have to learn the hard way? How far does this have to go? What if those ladies had been sexually assaulted or even raped in there? There is no excuse. America it is time to wake up and stop being blindly tolerant over foolish things. Common sense please.

This Good news Gospel leads to repentance. God is good to us. The power of sin can be broken by receiving the wisdom of God and the power of God; Jesus Christ.

GOSPELIZE

Do you believe this?

If you are going to try to call Cruz a wolf in sheep's clothing then what do you call Trump? Scripture says that by their fruits we shall know them. Though he claims to be a christian, Trump's actions and morals speak otherwise.

That right there is a lot of the problem with parenting these days. Parents don't put their foot down and teach right from wrong. They just let their kids come to their own conclusions and do whatever they want. No wonder the youth of today are so confused, they are awash in a sea of moral relativity.

I too think the archway of Baals Temple being constructed in hundreds of cities by UNESCO is sobering when we realize what Baal worship consists of. Weather, war, population control and perversions were essential elements. Good weather and war victories would be granted by Baal in return for child sacrifice and wild orgies. Isn't that a good framework for a intl religion today? Climate change, abortion, war on terror and the LGBT perversions. Isn't that what all the world agrees on? And united by? The RCC or Islam can't muster that unity. Just a thought
Anyways about the deletions, I have even posted Scripture omitting book chapter and verse and had it deleted. It does show how Biblically illiterate SA can be. For those who have read the OT enough times, Baal worship is a very possible candidate for the antichrist end time religion.
Unfortunately too many here have already bet their souls it's the RCC, and a worthwhile discussion might not be possible he
