Without?
Posted Sunday, March 16, 2008, at 1:54 PM<< Previous | Read comments | Respond | Email link | Next >>
Without history books what would we know about our past?
Without math books how would we know numbers?
Without science books wow would we know the world and its components?
Without English books how would we know proper grammar
Without books just how much would we know?
Most important of all!
Without the BIBLE [BASIC INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE LEAVING EARTH]
HOW WOULD WE KNOW ABOUT OUR CREATOR, OUR LIFE GIVER OUR PROVIDER BUT MOST OF ALL OUR SALVATION? For he sent his only Son his only unique Son to die on a Cross so we could have eternal life.
The Old Covenant shows us what sin is and the New Covenant shows us how to achieve Salvation.
Without the Word how would we know?

Actually Michael,
You stated yourself, the Word of God was Jesus. How can Jesus and the Bible be both?
Yeah! What Michael just said!
Yeah! What Evil Monkey ask? Let's see if we can get an answer for that one.
No offense, but it seems that the English book you studied from didn't do you any good. You need to redo the chapter on punctuation.

Without the Bible....
****Most important of all!
That EVERYONE of these have flaws, persuasive opinions, and were ALL written by men.
John 1 1-14
The Old Testament was shadows of Jesus and the New Testament was where the shadows left and the light appeared.
In Jewish synagogues it take 3.5 years to complete the Torah.
The ministry of Jesus was 3.5 years.
Jesus walked around fulfilling scripture and the High Priest were to steeped in rituals to see it.
Jesus hidden
Jesus revealed
It is simple to me.
I have some new info on some things today which was revealed to me which sheds some new light on these blogs so I Will know the reason behind some of the comments.
The comments are serious questions, man. No idea how some new info was received when I have been pretty forward about why I am asking.
Thank God for the men that allowed him to work through them and guide his word and preserve it at the risk of lose of everything.
I pray he have mercy on the ones that were ashamed of him for being the single promised seed and introduced their own version of the word and seeds that met a standard they wanted.
Be thankful that the Holy spirit gives us powers to discern the anti-christ as it continues to attempt to destroy the works of the one Christ we Christians know and proclaim as our promise.
Without Gods word, the Bible, we would be living in darkness. We would also be living in a world without love. Yes the Bible was written by men. Men whose hands were guided by God himself. The very creator of our universe led these men to write an instruction manual for our daily live, and I find no flaws in it. I only find flaws in myself, for not understanding everything in it. I do understand the main point of the entire book. Jesus Christ lived, died and was resurected for all of us, and the kicker is none of us deserve it.
greasemonkey,
21 I do not write to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it and because no lie comes from the truth. 22 Who is the liar? It is the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a man is the antichrist--he denies the Father and the Son. 23No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also
Beware the antichrist that is among us.
The antichrist is going to come and preach love and world-wide unification... and in the process, do everything in reverse. Sound like anyone you know? I can think of a few leaders who userp that power now.
Wow, Nascar, you seem to be agreeing with the Bible. There is also differences in antichrists. You have "the" antichrist mentioned in end times prophecy then you have "many" antichrists, which is anyone who tries to disprove that Jesus is the messiah.
Btw, this is off the subject, but I met Michael today at church. The man I met is not the man most of you have demonized as a man of hate and discontent, but a man that loves the Lord Jesus and is just trying to draw closer to him with his studies. If he happens to teach someone something then all the better. I cant understand why he is so hated on here.
parkerbrothers,
You have yet to answer my question.
Greasemonkey,
The bible isn't the word of god, Jesus is. Michael even said that.
greasemonkey,
You speak well. Continue discerning by looking at the foundation of which the house is built. If it is built upon the the foundation of the one Christ of his guided word it is of a Christian house. If it is built upon anything else it is of the antichrist home.
I thank my God for the power of discernment.
I thank my God for Websters Dictionary to help me figure things out when I fail to listen to his Holy Spirit only.

I thank my God for the peaceful Holy Spirit that tells me to pray for the evil ones that they may see the light.
parkerbrothers,
If you had any insight, you would come up with more original material, and if you had an iota worth of pop culture knowledge you would know who and what "Evil Monkey" is.
Still haven't answered my question.
michaelbell,
Very good observations. I am glad the resurrected Christ taught the likes of the apostle Paul who cared for the early Christians. His letters to them were remarkable. I have read Galatians and Romans at least a 1000 times each and still love to read them more each time.
I find it so amazing that even the latest discovered manuscipts that have been discovered translate perfectly with our recorded manuscripts today in the Bible. It is even more astonishing that these latest discovered letters were written when Christians were still being persecuted for what was in their letters and would not recount their testimony under flame or sword.
An iota of pop culture knowledge is as useful for me today as the tits on a boar hog are for the swine tommorrow.
I will stick with the guided and protected word I hang my soul on. I feel a little better placing value to it.
Pretty pathetic that you hang your sould on a book...
Besides working on those housing projects and posting here, when is the last time you fed the hungry, clothed the naked, visited random people in the hospital, coordinated a fundraiser for children who's government can't provide them insurace, or even dropped a penny into a charity bucket? Is it easier to read a book full of fallacies and pretend it's all you need, or does God want you to DO something, instead of continuing to SAY something.
Michael said it himself... Preaching is "95% telling them what they're doing wrong, and 5% showing them how to correct it..."
Perhaps that's the biggest problem people have, a pastor/church who can stand behind a pulpit and delegate who is sinning and why they are sinning, and provide nothing more than a book of fiction to persuade them not to. Saying the Bible is God's word, is the easy way out.
The moment parkerbrothers, greasemonkey, and michael are without sin, I will let them throw boulders at me. But they won't even be able to pick them up because the sins they commit are just as heavy and no different than anyone else's. I find it ironic how people use Jesus as scapegoat... Ex: Michael says, "My sins are bought and paid for", well who's aren't?
It doesn't justify continuing to sin and then running to Jesus so he can wash it away, every time. The typical Christian mentality. You can sin, sin, sin but at the end of the day all you have to do is pray and it's all taken care of. (Why don't you feel the same way about murderers, rapists, etc etc etc) Then they say, well on judgement day, God will ask you to account for each sin, well wait a minute, didn't you just say your "sins were bought and paid for?" Which is it?
Parkerbrothers,
Anything I have asked or stated, still hasn't been answered by you whatsoever, you keep repeating yourself to the point that everyone realizes you are a 1 tune man. Good luck in your endeavors.
nascarfanatic,
greasemonkey is not one of them, trust me on this, he asks questions and reads and doesn't provoke. No point in saying much about him. The great thiing about Michael is, he is finally actually looking outside of the canonized Bible, though some of it isn't correct, that's ok because he is at the least looking into it more. parkerbrothers is one of those old goats who thinks he knows it all.
For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
A beatiful tune to hold onto if you choose to have only one.
For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:

Ignoring Satan is sometimes the answer.
Sometimes answering him is the answer.
Until I make thy foes thy footstool.
Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
What are you antichrist hanging your soul on?
I don't see any Antichrist on these blogs... Seems like you have not only literally but figuratively been talking to yourself recently... Ironic. (Notice the last 5 comments with no dialogue)
Parkerbrothers, It's sad that you think the people who have been longing to know WHY books have been taken out of the Bible, are as you say, antichrist.
From what I gather, none of these people have spoken against God or Jesus, whatsoever. They simply long to want to know MORE. Such as why are there missing books? Why does the Bible not include anything from after the birth until the adult life? These are great questions, not anitchrist sord of questions... Forgive people for wanting to know the TRUE, COMPLETE story rather than following half baked ideas, that do contradict themselves, BECAUSE some of the Bible you have hung your soul on, is missing... How is it a BAD thing to want to have a complete "word of God" than a false representation of it? I would take a look in the mirror, and ask myself, "how long have I been misled?" Because the rest of us, simply want to know, "Where is the rest of it, why has so much gone missing, and who is responsible"... We love God, and he has deemed it our responsibility to answer those often dreaded questions, that you and others can not and will not answer.
I never identified who were the antichrist.
You just did it for me with your post.
Parkerbrothers,
You haven't answered my question.
But he held his peace, and answered nothing.
Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ.
Still doesn't answer the question. Instead of trying to talk in riddles, Answer the question.
The reason you cannot answer the question is because, you cannot. You are a hypocrite, you want an answer, when asked, and then cannot answer a simple one when asked of you. You are far from any christian you profess to be. You mock Jesus, you have no idea about anything you believe in and you clearly cannot express yourself in a concise mature civil manner.
Please seek some professional help for any possible addiction problems you might have or maybe seek your medical doctor to change your prescription to some a little stronger.
I never identified who were the antichrist.
You just did it for me with your post.

parkerbrothers,
"... And please tell me who Christ is, because he seems to be mentioned more than Jesus is."

But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake...................................................................................
Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.
Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me..............................................................................................
Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.........................................................................................
For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publicly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ............................................................................................
Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ..................................................................................
For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.........................................................................................
For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified..........................................................................................
But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him......................................................................................
For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ................................................................................
He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven....................................................
But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.
May the light shine even upon the Evil.
Again, I never identified the antichrist. I knew you would for me. I asked a simple question for the antichrist and you responded.

Can't answer this?
After reading the comments to Michael's blogs this weekend, I had just about decided that I should never return since I was not seeing anything profitable in the discourse. I couldn't see where God or Jesus was being glorified but was tempted several times to add comments that probably would not have done so either. However when I got up this morning I happened to pick this up. I keep this prayer near my desk and it never fails to humble me when I am reminded that if we honestly and humbly seek God that we have his assurances that he will guide us. I think this is what it truly means to be a seeker.
"My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think that I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing. I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that if I do this you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it. Therefore I will trust you always though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death. I will not fear, for you will never leave me to face my perils alone." - From "Thoughts in Solitude" by Thomas Merton.
So, I guess I see more clearly now that there are many seekers here regardless of our differences and maybe the discourse in not in vain. I only pray that it can be more civil and profit everyone more. Having said that, I would like to apologize and seek forgiveness from anyone who I may have directed unkind remarks to in the past. I will endeavor never to do that again.
You have still spoken of two Christs in the above passages. They are not the same, both were in different parts of the known world at the same time. You speak of simplicity yet you haved marred it with verses that to not have the basis of which Christ you profess is Jesus. Some are correct, some are not.
Still, you seem to be avoiding the issue you claimed I was incorrect about, please answer the question.
devan,
Thanks and I have never felt you have done anything against so you really had no need to say anything. But I hope you stay and please keep saying whatever you want. You never act childish nor direct any namecalling so I am sure everyone feels you didn't need any reason to apologize.
PATHETIC...

Yes, also a shame you would respond when called.
Right, I am the anti-christ everyone. Parkerbrothers has figured it out!! GOOD JOB, where do I place the gold star?

Can you think of a time you've done any of this?
EvilMonkey.
For me there is one Word, One empty tomb and one resurrected Jesus Christ. So I guess you are right when you said I am a 1 tune man.
Serve all the different Christ and Gods you want.
Tell us about both of these Christ?
Is one risen and one dead or both risen or both dead.
Either way which is the one you love and accepted as your Savior.
I would indeed like to have 2 of the kind I know.
I am not perfect by any means ,but because I accepted Christ as my Saviour his precious blood covers me and I will appear perfect before God.
If you have accepted Christ then fine.
When the Bible talks of the word the word is the first 5 books of the Bible and the first 5 books talks of Jesus from Melchesadec to the tabernacle to everything else in those books.
If you let the Holy Spirit show you.
For anybody interested I have some books on the tabernacle which are free to whoever wants them just let me know and we will find a way to get them to you.
It plainly shows to me that the old covenant is shadows of Jesus Christ and the new covenant is the light itself
Tell us about both of these Christ?
I have, quite a few times, it seems you have a problem reading and comprehending the english language.
Thank you,devan.
I've found your words to be among the oases of reason on more than one occasion.
Aside from the issue of 2 Christs,we have His extended family and quite a few adopted children who have gone into the family business.
Any one of these can do more than Jesus Himself did (according to Him).
If we do any part of exhibiting the love and wisdom He did,we will soothe many of this tired world's ills and bring many to the love of the Father.
(I guess our recruitment strategy would make us "heart-hunters".)
It's not that the "book learnin'" and pupit-pounding aspects don't matter but that we preach best with our actions.
EM had a point in that we reveal God best in what we do-not what we say.
Can we try generating less heat and more light?
It might say more about who's "right" than some circular discussions.
Tell us about both of these Christ?
I have, quite a few times, it seems you have a problem reading and comprehending the english language.
-- Posted by Evil Monkey on Mon, Mar 17, 2008, at 4:40 PM
Well which did you accept to love and accept as your savior as you previously claimed? Or is the answer both.
Also do you remember having this same problem before?
Please answer my question Evil Monkey. Since the bible isn't reliable where do you get your knowledge of Jesus?
-- Posted by devan on Mon, Dec 24, 2007, at 8:53 AM
or
Evil Monkey I just can't seem to get a grip on your understanding of Jesus or the Bible. You seem to know a lot about him but not believe in the Bible as a reliable source of information. Where do you get your revelation about Jesus?
-- Posted by devan on Sun, Dec 23, 2007, at 8:24 PM
or
In your previous post(s) you have done a good job of telling me why the Bible is not a reliable source. I have yet to see where you have said anything about where you do get reliable information about Jesus. Answer my question and I'll answer yours.
-- Posted by devan on Tue, Dec 25, 2007, at 8:53 PM
Sorry Devan but it was out there.
Right, I am the anti-christ everyone. Parkerbrothers has figured it out!! GOOD JOB, where do I place the gold star?
-- Posted by nascarfanatic on Mon, Mar 17, 2008, at 3:22 PM
If you believe in the Christ in my Bible which was written by men guided and protected by this same Christ you are of this Christ in this Bible.
If you do not believe in this Christ that is in this Bible and that he guided and protects this Bible then you are anti this Christ which John spoke of in this Bible.
If you are not for this Christ in the Bible you are against this Christ in the Bible and yes you therefore meet all the requirements of the antichrist that even John knew were present in his time.
Maybe some of you have another Christ or perhaps two as the Evil has of which he can not make up his mind which one he loves and which or both are his accepted savior. Maybe someone has more than two Christ. Have as many as it takes for you guys. I have one and he is the promised seed (singular).
You can not be for this Christ in the Bible that decribes the antichrist when you claim it is:
a "book full of fallacies"
"false representation
" MAN-MADE BOOK SO... you're counting on a Bible to do that?"
"The evangelists [Matthew, Mark,Luke, and John] were fiction-writers"
"That Christ stuff you talk about"
"flaws of this book?"
"make ABSOLUTLEY NO SENSE!"
"it is PROVEN that their very foundation is a complete and total book of contradictions"
"And I suppose 'faith' is all those authors of contradicting accounts of Jesus's life had when they writing their "stories"...
"Faith is a great thing to have, but it doesn't prove anything."
"I don't think that "The Greatest Story ever Told" (the Bible) is God's word.
as you have Nascarfanatic
and your other half of the dynamic destructing duo the Evil one says:
"Hell, I believe Stargate has more fact then the Bible and I know Stargate is pure fictional."
"I don't believe in God, Hell or any of the other crap so none of it matters. And as I grow older, I am finally given up believing in Santa and the Tooth Fairy"
"Simply put, the Bible isn't a really good source of information"
So I may be ignorant, undereducated, hard headed and all the other things you claimed but I do have the gift of discernment and I know the antichrist when I see them. You both are the antichrist I know.
You may have another Christ like the Evil one and you may not be an antichrist to that one but you are to the one in my Bible.
See if you can be get the Evil one to tell you about his other Christ he knows about and see if you are for or anti that one.
That would be a good insurance plan. Have two tickets and have twice the chance.
May the light open your eyes to his light.
Both of you need to get off your highly educated and all knowinfg asses and get on your knees and ask the Holy Spirit to start teaching you what you need to know and stop trying to teach yourself and everyone on here what you think you know.
God have mercy on both of you. I am going to.
Brother Parker,
AND I answered him. Nice try sherlock. And again, I have answered you and you STILL avoid answering me. You are such a hypocrite, you can't pray for me because you don't even know how to. Everything needs to be cookie cutter for you because you are so narrow-mindedly inbred from always listening to others instead of doing the research for yourself.
I had to point you in the right direction of why I believe the way I do and you don't even read about it. Instead you keep asking me over and over and expect some miraculous thing to open the heavens and show you the light. If you cannot go take the time to go read for yourself and make your own conclusions to expect me to make them for you.
I want you to make them on your own. Any person that has spoken to me knows for a fact, that I want them to see for theirselves. So don't go off on me for answering your many repetitive questions just because you can't comprehend what I am saying. If you must continue trolling then please use some common sense and come up with something original. At least, Michael Bell is reading more of the books of the REAL bible to make his own conclusions, I suggest you do the same.
And since you have the audacity to tell me what to do, why don't you off your ignorant arse and come kiss mine?
Does Satan have one?
No idea, but you sure are interested in mine. Hiding something behind your "christian" beliefs?
Does anyone out there know what the antichrist is talking about?
I have to leave for an hour or so but hopefully somebody can help this undereducatated man of me here.
You sir can go linger in your self-doubt now. And you STILL haven't answered the question.
No doubt here Evil one. You are of the antichrist in the Bible of mine. Keep growling. I will know I am getting somewhere when your head quits going in 360's.
None of us are perfect or omniscient.
We're all growing at our own rate and that growth is only partly determined by how well we've been fed.
Do we need to be bashing people who are developing at a different rate from ourselves?
Yes,we can offer guidance and support but does the eye really need to be lambasting the hand for not having pretty lashes?
Does the gall bladder need to find fault with the ear?
We aren't supposed to be the same and our differences are not necessarily impediments.
They might be tools that God has given us for a purpose.
Even our mistakes or incomplete knowledge might be used by God to promote better understanding and heightened perception of His truth.
Let's accept ourselves as we are and know that we will go beyond our current state as we grow.
We won't stop growing and learning so long as we live so let's cut each other some slack as we make our journeys.
It's hard to move ahead if one is focusing more on the path the other fellow is taking than one's own steps.
Maybe,there would be less stumbling if we didn't try to trip the people we thought were moving in the wrong direction.
AMEN & AMEN quantumcat!
360? I think you are mistaken.
The answers that some of you seek can be found at kimball college & ancient manuscripts.(cheek the book section)
pistolpacker,
Thanks but I already have them.
quantumcat,
I truly enjoy your writings. I really do and think most everyone can relate to them. I think they work for almost everyone the majority of the time.
But this is no time to be pussyfooting around. There is a lion roaring and wanting to devour.
You evidently have not noticed that this Evil will not claim this Jesus in our Bible as the Christ. Before your very eyes you have been deceived as Eve was in this same Bible by the same spirit. I am not the first Christian to notice this of him. I am the last one though that will accept it.
Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
If you, quantumcat, are of this Christ in the Bible ask the Evil for yourself if his Jesus is the Christ of this Bible. Ask him to tell you about which of his Christ is the one he loves. Ask him where he learned of his Christ.
If you, quantumcat, are anti this Christ in the Bible do not ask him for you already know his answer.
Brother Parker,
Ok, so after many times, you have refused to answer my question by attempting to turn this around by bearing false witness against me...
I am done talking to you, I cannot speak for the others.
THIS POST ON THE "BACK TO QUESTIONS" BLOG
EM, I am not trying to persecute you. I truly see Gods' hand working much like Sharon22 seen earlier and commented on.
Posted by parkerbrothers on Sun, Mar 16, 2008, at 12:42 PM
AND THEN THIS POST:
To Everyone on here,
Thanks from the bottom of my lowly sinning heart for what each of you added and persisted with in allowing me to learn as I have from each and everyone one of you both individually and collectively as a group. I hope you all see the need of the proper foundation called Christ and if not I pray he remains persistant in his calling you to build your house upon him.
I ask each of you to forgive me for any hurt or pain I may have caused any of you with my answering the compellment drawing me to start typing. I did not intend to hurt and hope somehow I helped someone a 1000th of what you guys helped me. If I did it was worth the hours I adhered to the compelling force I know to be Christ.
Thanks,
Marvin Parker

And then you call Evil Monkey the Anti-Christ? Sir, I really think you need to take some anti-psychotic medication or atleast quit hitting the bottle so hard, you are a walking contradiction. How dare you judge, for it is not your place. EM is FAR from being the anti-christ, perhaps you are, who knows? Only God does.
michaelbell,
Are you of and for this Jesus the Christ of our Bible or are you anti this Christ of the Bible?
Tell me where you learned of your Christ that you claim you love and as your Savior.
stolen25,
I meant every word in your repost now as I did then. I truly learned a lot from each and everyone of you and do not want to hurt anyone including the Evil One. As I said earlier in that post I do see the hand of God working on him. I also saw the hand of God work on Legion. Legion had a different God and Christ and it was himself of which there were many.
I was going to wait until tommorrow to learn more but since you popped up let me ask you.
Are you of and for this Jesus the Christ of our Bible or are you anti this Christ of the Bible?
Tell me where you learned of your Christ that you claim you love and as your Savior if you have one. If you have two as the Evil One claims tell me about both of yours.
I am going to bed. I will be back in the morning to learn more. Think of what your answer will be when someone ask you -
Are you of and for this Jesus the Christ of our Bible or are you anti this Christ of the Bible?
Tell me where you learned of your Christ that you claim you love and as your Savior.
No Christian will mind answering that and will do it with relative ease.
Which are you?
You can only be one or the other. There is no middle ground.
Nobody is answering your question, because you aren't answering theirs. Next time you go to bed, stay there for a while.
Parkerbrothers,
Thanks for running Michael's blogs into the ground. Your post are appalling and like a three year old who has NEVER heard the word "NO" in their life.
I think many of these posters you elude to just want to read the ENTIRE Bible. Why don't you?
It seems you have placed your faith in MEN, and trust that everytime MEN translated the Bible, and edited it, that "god" was somehow inspiring them. I believe God inspired the once original, and perfect word, but over time the entire thing has become irrelevant, because men haven't stopped adding to and taking away from God's word.
You rest your soul on faith in MEN. Not God. Whether you want to admit it or not, you do. People here who don't read a book religiously do many more good works, and probably pray just as much as you do. The biggest difference is, while the world around them is happening, they're not stuck in some dark room reading the Bible for answers, they are out there living life and being productive members of society.
Anybody can read the Bible 100 times and get a different message from it everytime. Much of it, was not meant to be taken literally, which is obvious if you just simply read it. There is no justification to the countless acts of murder, rape, pillage, etc all condoned and influenced by leaders at the time. THE SAME LEADERS who burned people that didn't believe exactly how they believed and took out the parts of the Bible they didn't deem worthy. All anybody has tried to tell you is that, YES they believe in God, YES most of them believe in Jesus as the risen Savior, but they DO NOT PLACE THEIR ENTIRE FAITH in a BOOK. After all, God speaks to millions of people everyday who have never once flipped open a Bible, explain that.
I wish I could personally say I read the Bible daily but I don't. I feel like it's a big Hollywood production, honestly. Fairytales, magic, witchcraft, wars, etc etc. It all seems odd. If you claim to be the most devoted Christian possible, then why aren't you out there wanting to know MORE about Jesus than is written in stone. Seems to me, you are the one with the inability to expand your mind and think that maybe Jesus wants us to find the missing books, and that alone could lead MILLIONS upon MILLIONS more to him.
I see it like this, when I put together a 700 piece puzzle, and all the pieces aren't there I get frustrated because I know the packaging says all the pieces are there. The puzzle would be perfect if they were all there, but some are missing which makes it incomplete, therefore you don't get the entire picture. Why then are you satisfied with a Bible that claims to be the complete word of God when 100's of pieces are missing and 100's of pieces that don't belong there.
I ask you, with full intention of evoking a well thought out response, why YOU accept a book that isn't complete, and yet somehow justify it by spinning questions to people who have already answered you. Where did I find out about Jesus and God, IN THE BIBLE!!!!!!!! DUH. But why do I, you, or anyone want to just settle for what we are told is complete, when we know otherwise. You should want to know more, but are limiting yourself with what everyone else is telling you, is all you need to know.
Good Morning,
Hope everyone slept as well as I did.
nascarfanatic,
My questions always get answered. The Holy spirit is a good teacher. Most times this teacher gives the answer before I have the question. Life has been easier since he came aboard.
I wished you and everyone trusted in the Bible to be guided and inspired by him instead of all the things you say it is. He will not become the teacher if you view his material in the ways you do. I am not going to judge or condemn you though for your given choice. It is yours to do what you will.

I was going to ask you the qestion today but you have already answered it for me when you said "I feel like it's a big Hollywood production, honestly. Fairytales, magic, witchcraft, wars, etc etc. It all seems odd." and then "the entire thing has become irrelevant"
This puzzle you talk about is good. Without the light the puzzle will always appear to be missing pieces. Satans' ultimate goal is to put doubt in your mind and furnish you with all the needed justifications and rationalzations you will need. When you claim there are hundreds of pieces missing and hundreds of pieces there that don't belong you are telling me that your power to determine that is greater than the power of the Christ himself. I believe if he could indeed come out of the tomb he could even more easily guide, inspire and protect his word as he does me. Once you believe that he died and did rise you will have no trouble believing any of his protected word.
A lot of these lost and/or removed scriptures that everyone wants to claim as part of this puzzle you talk about are readily available today. Using your scenerio I would like to add to it by saying that you can also view these alledged lost pieces in a different way. After reading them I viewed them as pieces of another puzzle that Satan tried slipping into the box. Discerning minds led by the Holy Spirit seen these pieces were cut from a different saw and seperated them from the Bible we have today. As I said earlier I have read most all of the ones I know of I and can see the same thing. They were cut on a different machine and would not fit on the puzzle of Christ.
I do not put my faith in men or the book. I put it in the author and finisher. I put it in his faith he displayed in the work of the cross and in the faith of the men who saw the risen Christ and their work. They stated their name and stood for what they believed in. They made no bones about their story after they saw the resurrected Christ. Peter and Paul in particular became two entirely different men when they saw something.
I appreciate you answering my question on where you learned of God and Jesus. The Evil One has a hard time answering that one and for a reason.
I am not trying to condemn you or hurt you at all Darrick04 but how much can you know about this God and Jesus in the Bible when your statements about the Bible are. "I feel like it's a big Hollywood production, honestly. Fairytales, magic, witchcraft, wars, etc etc. It all seems odd." and then "the entire thing has become irrelevant" When you make comments such as those I naturally wonder how you can help but be in the dark and confused about the complete picture the puzzle shows when all the pieces are there.
Again I am not asking you or anyone if they are for or anti any Christ. I am asking about the one Christ of the cross in the Bible we have today. You are entitled to have as many as you want and I have no problem with your choices. They are yours. You can be antichist to the Christ I know and be prochrist to another you know and could very well have the right Christ while I the wrong. I choose though to believe in one that showed me what he can do by coming out of the tomb and influencing the lives of the ones that saw him on both sides of the cross and give them an unrecountable story.
darrick_04 ,
Sorry, I accidently hit the button and sent the last post before I was finished when someone came in.
I wanted to say that a lot of people will not answer that question and remain hidden in the room much like the disciples did when they were on the one side of the cross and had just seen this man crucified.
However when they see a resurrected Christ on the other side of the cross they will react much as did the disciples and proclaim what they saw and believe. Remember even hard headed Peter denied the Christ on one side of the cross and died defending him on the other side of the cross. If you ever see the risen Christ you will receive the Holy Spirit and the picture on the puzzle will appear finished just as Christ said "It is finished".
I hope and pray everyone including the Evil One can see this resurrected Christ before he returns. Life is so much easier trusting in the risen Christ and I wish that for everyone.
I appreciate the concern given people who may be putting themselves in spiritual jeopardy.
It is admirable for people to offer themselves as a means for others to learn things they,themselves,had to learn the hard way.
Yes,we should warn of delusion,complacency and other harbingers of spiritual stagnation.
But,the spirit of the anti-christ is subtle despite its lack of wisdom.
It will enjoy the success it derives from prompting us to tear each other apart over what we know as thoroughly as it would delight in keeping us ignorant altogether.
While we are arguing,we aren't doing.
While we are treating one another as the enemy,we are throwing away our allies and alienating those who might have sought to join our ranks.
In at least this instance,he copies God by having our words be unintelligible to the one next to us.
Because we can't/won't find validity in the others' speech,we move away from one another and forget our common goals.
This time,we need to get past the words and keep building until we are as close to Heaven as we can get.
We need not compromise our beliefs or keep silent as we see folks put themselves and others in danger.
We do need to trust the God that touches our hearts to deal with the other fellow's.
We need to know that as high as we might build our towers,we won't reach Him until He leans down to embrace us.
We need to tell God,Legion and its master and one another that we will not disperse that we might be picked off one by one.
We will not hurtle into the abyss.
We will take the guidance of our Shepherd and stay together.
(Even if it takes having someone very like a wolf nipping at our heels to keep us from going astray.)
How do we know who is the predator and who belongs with the flock?
Look to see if he is drawing those he snaps at closer to the Shepherd or further away.
Our foe has nothing of his own to use against us.
He must apply God's tools if he would defeat us.
He will distort the Bible and try to obscure its Truth.
He will set the members of a family against one another.
We can thwart him by recognizing that if he works that hard to accomplish certain things,we should work for the opposite.
God is not in spiteful disrespect of other believers.
If our enemy wants us to dismiss and denigrate one another,isn't that an excellent clue that we should pay more attention to how we are alike than how we differ?
Instead of serving the agenda of a lower impotence,let's rally under the banner of the Higher Power that loves us all.
Our Father doesn't expect us to like one another all the time but He knows His legacy will not thrive should we forget our family bond so thoroughly that we would rise against our kin to destroy them,enslave them or deny them their birthright.
quantumcat,
Very good. I always enjoy what you have to say. Sounds like it is coming from a very good heart. Keep up all the good and continue to help us grow and be patient with us all as we do.
If we are really,truly wanting one another to learn the truth and act on it (whether it meets our current preferences or not),can we not agree with one another that this might be achieved?
"For wherever two or more are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst of them" (Matt. 18:20).
Note the "together".
He won't want to hang out with us if we're insisting He join OUR team.
Let's try being on HIS side,instead.
quantumcat,
I went back and reread your post. I told you I really like it and I felt it was worth reading again.
A couple of things I noticed the second time that I did not fully see the first time gave me questions.
You said the spirit of the antichrist is subtle despite its lack of wisdom. I have always believed the antichrist spirit to be very intelligent, full of vast knowledge and wisdom due to his age. Help me with what you know so I can grow.
You also said We need to tell God,Legion and its master and one another that we will not disperse that we might be picked off one by one. Do you not feel that we will be picked off one by one sooner if we allow the fox to stay in the hen house with us. I am only wanting to say that I am guilty indeed of cackling and crowing about what appears to be a fox in the hen house I am figuretively in. Maybe I am in the wrong hen house. A lot of my questions have only been to determine if I am in the wrong house, if others of this flock are content to be with a fox or if I have seen something besides a fox.
I have tried to be clear in what I thought was a fox (antichrist) to me. I have said I accept each and everyones' definition of one also. Maybe I am being overcautious but I think it too late once the feathers start flying. I used the Bible which is precise in describing a fox. I trust fully in it. A lot of people on here have refused to tell me their definition and source. I really want to give everyone the benifit of their doubt but have a hard time when someone tells me of different Christs, they believe in God and Jesus but they Bible is some of the things they think it is including incomplete, irrelevant, null and void, rendered useless,etc.,etc.,...I can not help but believe their faith and definitions aren't the same as what they believe.
I am also willing to believe that perhaps I have not seen a fox in the henhouse but instead maybe a rooster in a costume. That is fine if that is the case. I think things could be better if some of the games were not being played by all.
I have simply told everyone which house I belong in and have no problem moving on if there is indeed a fox in this house or all the rest of the flock is complacid with lying with a fox. You seem to be caring about the flock. Am I in the wrong house?
quantumcat,
I just read your second post this morning and it like the first is full of good and wisdom of which I agree to all.
I do have a question though. You said "For wherever two or more are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst of them" (Matt. 18:20). I know this to be fact and believe it wholeheartedly.
I just want to throw something out for thought. I noticed several times in the Bible that there were two or more gathered together and he was literally in the midst of them. Some of these gatherings also had an antichrist among them. The one thing I always noticed was his attempt to cast them out. He always helped the sinner but cast the antichrist out. Tell me what you know about this and where I can find out more if you know something different. Thanks again for your post. I learn from them everytime I read them. Marvin Parker
I was taught as a child, that you do not add to the bible, and you do not take away. I believe in the Holy Bible as it is written. I believe in my Heavenly Father "God", his son who is my Lord and Savior "Jesus Christ" and the Holy Spirit that lifts me up and helps guide me. I do not know of any books on earth that is not written by man. The bible, and books that are suppose to be missing from the bible are all written by man. But I believe that the Holy Bible was inspired by God as it is written.
In Genesis, God told Adam and Eve not to eat the fruit from the tree of knowlege. He gave them (Adam and Eve) all they need to eat. But instead Eve was inticed by evil to eat from the fruit of knowlege and she then in turn gave the fruit to Adam to eat, and they were cursed with death. I do not want to question God.
I was told as a child you do not question God. I believe since we are cursed from the tree of knowlege we question things we should not and go seeking answers else where wear we should not. I believe the Holy Bible is meant for me to read and learn as it is "Nothing Added or taken away. And what is not in the bible is forbiden. As for two Jesus, don't know nothing about that. To me their is only ONE God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and I believe these three are 1 and the same "OF GOD".
Thank you.
I think the enemy's intellect is overrated because if *I* have enough sense to ally myself with God with my sinful nature,what excuse does a person have when he had daily,unimpeded association with the Lord and threw it away?
Like Eve,it's a lot easier for us to assume that we aren't getting the full picture than to think someone is being evil on purpose.
I think a spiritual predator would rather attack the weak when they have no defenders about than to make an assault when a dozen beaks,claws and wings would be encouraging him to remove poultry from his diet.
I would prefer to let a fox into my henhouse than shut one foolish bird out.
After all,the fox is taking the greater risk.
Should he be over-exposed to truth and grace,he might abandon his villainous ways,have his new and better Master provide regular meals that don't have parasites and get to sleep indoors snuggling among living featherbeds.
But God has to tame the beasts before he lets them into his household.
They have to recognize Him as their Alpha.
Otherwise,they will feed upon His own.
What we need to remember is that the enemy doesn't wait for an invitation to come onto our turf.
God waits for us to welcome Him but,once there,no one who means us harm will be tolerated in His presence.
His enemies don't even WANT to be close to Him.
Who ever seeks proximity to God is not our foe.
He may seem strange and dangerous but if he seeks the will of the one who owns us and is fed by His hand then he belongs to our Master as well and we can follow Him together.
As for the devotion to the Bible,I am all for it so long as it isn't used to pull people into a form of idolatry.
This includes Man's doctrines that he has added in the secular realm and in the various denominations.
I am confident that God can use everything from a sunset to a Burma-Shave sign to impart His truth to us and bring us closer to Him.
I believe just as much that the enemy would and could use Holy Writ itself to confuse and mislead us if we allowed it.
One small example:
I heard some intelligent,good-hearted pastors tell of Vashti.
They described her as a brat who was replaced by the virtuous Esther because she refused to do her king's bidding.
A bit later,I heard of a girl's school named after Vashti because she acted on her convictions and refused to perform a vulgar dance even if she was cast out or killed for her stance.
I had been given one story but two very different interpretations of this woman's character.
This would not be the first or only example of contradictory conclusions I would face.
So far,I've tried to form my conclusions based on prayer,reading the Bible,prayer,listening to the wisdom of people I respect,prayer,seeking out commentaries,concordances and other resources,prayer,laying out fleeces to confirm or correct my notions and prayer.
I've noticed that if an idea or a course of action brings me closer to God (and vice-versa) then I'm doing o.k.
If one prospers at the other's expense,then something's off-kilter and I need to choose God and His will over anything else.
I don't worry about people being skeptical of human wisdom or wanting to study anything and everything before committing their minds and hearts.
I worry more about people who won't investigate and won't let God filter what they see and hear that they might make an accurate appraisal of their information.
Even if they swallow a little chaff or get ahold of something half-baked,those who want the Bread of Life will be o.k.
The ones that don't hunger or don't look at their wheat at all are those I fear for.
So long as we use discernment instead of relying on our own complacency,I think we can sense God guiding us to the truth.
It's when we decide God must be infallible because He agrees with us,that we are at risk for going astray.
quantumcat,
As usual and always a good read and lots of good thoughts to ponder on. You always have a lot of great quotes.
I know we all have different views on a lot of things including what a fox is and what to do with one. I think everyone respects your opinion as I think you respect theirs for what it is.
I know mine differs from yours and yours from mine but that's okay.
I also know I come across as irrate to a lot of people but there are some things I can hardly bear at times.
Chief among those things is seeing people say they know God and love Jesus. Then have them in one paragraph tell you when asked where they learned about Jesus and they say.... "IN THE BIBLE!!!!!!!! DUH." when just two paragraphs above that they describe the Bible and tell you that ..."I feel like it's a big Hollywood production, honestly. Fairytales, magic, witchcraft, wars, etc etc. It all seems odd."
I admire your ability to tolerate that if you have indeed seen it as I have.
You are blessed with something I do not have.
Momof3&3step&1gran,
Bless you for being the first to come out on your own and answer a question before you were asked.
I think half of the others out there are figuretively hiding in the room as the disciples did after the cruxifiction (in fear of being asked the question) and the other half were thinking I was about to perform an exorcism on the Evil One.
Glad you believe in a Godhead that could so easily influence, guide and protect his word. You are difinitely not anti.
If your name is Mary go tell them in the room he is risen.
Marvin,
If I seem tolerant of the "antis",it is,in part,because I've met people who truly aspired to be the Antichrist yet their Creator had very different plans for their lives.
These weren't just the smug,the deluded or self-proclaimed experts.
They weren't just the bitter or the ignorant.
These were people who lived for everything I despise.
Somehow,God gave me the ability to like the person even though I hated all they stood for.
(I suspect God had it figured out that some were "all hat and no cattle.")
In many,many cases,I saw them drug to the throne of God by their own intellectual honesty.
They wanted to ridicule a God who was a "Sky-Bully" and a Messiah who was one more toga-clad charlatan.
Instead,they were confronted with a Savior and Lord that had more reality than all their bigotry,cynicism and self-destruction.
They had never wanted to answer an altar call or walk the Roman Road except as a joke on deluded believers.
But,once the Word touched their hearts,they were angry,appalled, terrified and pole-axed.
They studied God with a mighty fervor and had all their negativity slough away.
Truly,I believe there was great rejoicing in Heaven over those souls joining the ranks of the saved.
(I can also picture the angels laughing their wings off at the irony.)
Once you've seen a Neo-Nazi atheist become a medical missionary treating third world children with AIDS, you know God's truth can penetrate the minds of anyone.
The smart ones take advantage of that truth when they get it.
I am still wary of the works-in-progress that haven't progressed very far in the right direction but I have less and less doubt about God being able to reclaim His own for Himself.
I think He's decided the enemy wouldn't work so hard to latch onto a soul if he didn't think that spirit would be a tremendous asset to God if he were recruited by the winning team.
I don't let myself assume people belong to the adversary.
I see them as the children of God they were created to be.
I don't have the power to say this person will give themselves to God and this one won't.
The only judgement I can make is how they seem to act.
Deeds reveal so much more than our words or labels.
(Think about this when you look at alleged Satanists or self-described believers: does anyone associate the Musketeers with guns?
That may have been in their name but people associate their actions with swordplay.
If we want to represent what's in our name,our deeds should reflect our titles.)
I can't blame the people who have skated on the rim of Hell for wanting to warn people about the pit and those who live within it.
But the very fact that the Lord snatched their smoldering souls in His nail-scarred hands shows that even the most unlikely souls can be redeemed and used to bless our world.
As we wouldn't want to be judged by all we were in our less-enlightened days,so should we be a bit tolerant of those who are still seeking,still maturing and still trying to figure out what they don't know.
I can't say I'm an expert on foxes in henhouses but I've seen sooo many fuzzy,baby chickenhawks that entered the coop only to discover they were Rhode Island Reds with oversized egos.
"Ah say,yeah,Ah say,son- you better get yaself bawn agin. If'n ya don't,y'all could wind up in that Acme fryin' pan,ya hear? Ah'm tellin' you the truth,son. Ah truly am. Ah can tell ya how to soah with wings of eagles but rat now you're struttin' around like a turkey."
(O.k.,so maybe Foghorn Leghorn wasn't cut out to be an evangelist...)
Whenever I can't manage to believe in people,I try harder to believe in the one who made them.
If He's willing to believe in them,maybe,someday,they'll return the favor.
Amen, Amazing, Agape! Our arms may be "too short to box with God" but his are never too short to reach out and touch us.
quantumcat,
Great quotes. You have to love em.
The analogy of Foghorn Leghorn was great. I think his work could quite well teach us as much as some evangelist. All the Looney tune characters have an analogy of sorts.
I believe the script writers were looking forward watching some of us on this blog when they wrote these lines years ago or were perhaps they looking backwards and seeing all of sinful mankind?

quantumcat,
I am going to ask my Mother if perhaps she was watching BUGS BUNNY when she thought of my name.
Thanks for your good work.
I am not without sin, I am the most vile and retched person. I have commited sins that would make an adult film star blush. I have done enough drugs and drank enough alcohol, that some people thought i was either a hotel heir or starting my own rock band. I cant think of another person that has behaved worse than I have. I have screwed people over and broke girls hearts just to watch them cry. I could fill up this entire blog and not even come close to telling you how bad I am, and yet Jesus still loves me. I am so humbled that someone could love me when I couldnt love myself. I havent thrown any rocks or boulders, if I have I apologize.
HEY! EVIL MONKEY How do you think we learned about jesus and who he was and his teachings along with the miracles he performed (FROM THE BIBLE) DUUU!!!!!, Hello is anybody in there?
Hey Tiny,
Read my comments instead of an idiots drug-induced opinion of me whom still cannot answer my question. He has twisted my words into lies and cannot even answer a simple question. So before jumping to conclusions, do your research.
parkerbrothers,
If you notice, the reason no-one responds to you anymore is because you make no sense and haven't been able to answer the questions. In summary, you have no resolve left. Ciao.
greasemonkey,
You sound like you know what we all are and that is sinners. I have also noticed before you understand God's simple plan of rescue for sinners like me and rely upon it yourself also. Don't let others come on here and try to seduce you with a complicated plan that they can tell you nothing about. The Bible you trust in is indeed God's word to us and it is simple if you allow the Holy Spirit to teach what it guides and protects. You seem to already be doing this and I commend you.
The sins you mentioned are nothing and trivial when laid beside the one commandment that Jesus tried showing was impossible to keep for one second of you life let alone all of it. It is contained in the following:
34But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.
35Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
36Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38This is the first and great commandment.
39And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
41While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,
42Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The son of David.
43He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,
44The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?
45If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?
46And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
Jesus is the only one that could fulfil this law and he did. He took it to the cross and nailed it to to the cross for us. He is the only thing that can stand between us and a perfect God.
I want to say that when I first stumbled on this blog I had trouble at first because I had to read everything in a hurry and kept thinking at first there was a guy on here with two different and contridicting opinions.
All I noticed at first was the last part of the names. I am by no means poking fun at either name but it did throw me for a minute. I would read one post by one of the two and see one thing and read a post of the other one and see something else. What I was actually seeing by reading both of them was this:
9And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:
10Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
11The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
12I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
13And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
14I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
15And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
16But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
17Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
When I took the time to go back and read them again I saw what was happening. It did not take long then to see the publican side of you displayed.
Be thankful you have seen the light and pray for the all knowing and self righteous Pharisee bloodline that survived.
tiny76,
There is always as it is now two different things of everything which the seperator has divided.
Just as he seperated the law from grace, dark from light, down from up, bad from good, evil from love, night from day, old from new, against(anti) or for, he displayed it by dividing the theives on the cross.
You will find a division here of which this seperator the Christ stands.
On one side you have people who live with a Bible who believe it is the guided and protected written word of God.
On the other side you have people who will tell you "Hell, I believe Stargate has more fact then the Bible and I know Stargate is pure fictional." , "Simply put, the Bible isn't a really good source of information" , " I don't believe in God, Hell or any of the other crap so none of it matters. And as I grow older, I am finally given up believing in Santa and the Tooth Fairy".
As always there is a side you will have to stand. The seperator has always showed that and stands between the two of everything forcing a left and a right.
He always leaves the choice with us and it is ours to have.
Evil Monkey,
I had rather be in the room of Christ by myself as to be in a palace packed with demons.
parkerbrothers,
It seems you should do spend alot of time trying to convince others to think like you do, it's amusing to watch. Keep at it, it's like watching a rat devour itself.
You still have avoided answering the question. Keep skirting the issue. :)
One God, One Jesus Christ, One Holy Spirit, One Word, One Empty Tomb, One Light, One Sinner.
As you said I am a simple one man tune.
That answers all questions a Christian would have.
Perhaps an antichrist has another for me.
Parker brothers! I hope you didn't think that what i said earlier was meant for you to, because it wasn't, It was made only for Evil Monkey.It seems like he likes bashing people and their beliefs or judging them for their past.I would love to see what he has in his closet, but to me as long as your following Jesus and showing people the power in his words and leading by example on how you live your life(good works)and keeping your faith in him,that no matter what your opinion on things is,as long as the things you do or say glorify him.i believe he will be well pleased in you.but not by any way was i refusing to you, only him.so if i offended you in any way i do opologize.
( BE BLESSED )
tiny76,
Really? show me bashing? It seems the only one bashing here is you and parkerbrothers.
Still haven't answered the question parkerbrothers.
Tiny76 happens to be my best friend and brother in Christ Jesus and he is not bashing anybody.
He thought he might have offended Parker brothers and was saying he was sorry.
If he offended you well, you probably deserve it.
If you don't like the content on my blog get off it and go do whatever it is a evil monkey does.
Which is probably just what you are doing.
I am a soldier for God and will continue to get on my pulpit and preach the way he leads me.
If it gets hot then his purpose is served for the time is short until Jesus returns.
For those concerned with time and his coming again they aren't ready.
Me I wish he would come this very instant and take his children home which I am one.
I live every day as it is my last.
If you repent and seek after him you will be saved to.
Jesus is the word and the word is Jesus and that word is called the BIBLE!
tiny76,
I did not take any offence and knew where your heart lay.
You guys have me so confused, first Jesus is Christ, Then Jesus is Savior, then Jesus is the Word, Now Jesus is the Bible...
BTW, the attitude you christians have, has me so confused as to what I should believe.
michaelbell,
When God lets it get a little hot in the kitchen just use the heat he is supplying and cook a little more for him.
I truly think he will enjoy the meals you have cooked for him.
Christ warned us of the persecution that would come for following after him.
Rejoice as Paul did and use it to build even a stronger faith. The closer you get to following the true Christ the greater the persecution that will try you from time to time. I have come to the point of appreciating it in a certain way.
Evil Monkey,
Get out your Bible out and ask the Holy Spirit to teach you if you are truly wanting to be taught. I promise you he loves you and will teach if you only surrender your knowledge and come to him in a child-like faith seeking him.
It is never to late to become a child. Even if it does require to be born again.
I live every day as it is my last.

Geez, so on your last day you'll have time to write 100 blogs of confusion, hypocrisy, contradiction, and selfishness? Interesting. Can't wait til Jesus asks why you and parkerbrothers had SO MUCH TIME to post on these blogs, meanwhile there are children who need to be fed all around the world. Ah, it's much easier to type about your faith rather than put it to action.
Evil Monkey,
I also want to tell you the confusion is not coming from Christians. I promise you it is the Evil One creating the confusion. God never wanted it to be confusing. He has a simple plan. Only the Devil would complicate it for you.
I pray for you as much as anybody. I too was once tormented with the confusion.
EVIL MONKEY ( THE TRUTHS HURTS ONCE IN A WHILE.)Man lives by faith not by sight and by the word of god in translation you can understand ( THE HOLY BIBLE.)
darrick_04,
Jesus already knows why we had the time. He gave it to us just like he gave it for us. I wish you knew this Jesus I know.
OMG, I was having so much fun watching parkerbrothers talk to himself, EM, darrick, let him continue :):) btw, you rambled ON and ON about cartoon characters parkerbrothers, that was pretty confusing.
Jesus already knows why we had the time. He gave it to us just like he gave it for us. I wish you knew this Jesus I know.

The Jesus I know did much more than talk alot.
darrick_04,
Yes he did. He came out of that tomb.
And what did he do before that? Sit around and talk about what he was going to do, or did he get up and do it?
In order to draw people to Christ, it is best to lead by example. Sitting behind a computer screen being an advocate for Jesus is much easier than being a disciple of Christ. Ya know. Faith without action is dead. But, I am gonna get off here. Otherwise this will go on and on and on and on and on. See ya.
nascarfanatic,
I actually just took a couple of minutes to click and pasted a lot of them.
I still like to see them from time to time. They are as enjoyable today as they were back then. I guess it does not take a lot to satisfy me.
As I told your cohort earlier today I am content in the room of Christ by myself and had rather be there as to be in a room of swine that survived the cliff.
It is so simple it is a stumblingblock.
Three survivors,
I am going to bed. You can squell at me all you want. The sooner you realize I am only interested in feeding you guys you will quit trying to knawl my arms off.
One last thing. Evil must be the stronger of you three. He made it back up the hill the fastest.
Good night.
That's typical. When you're asked about what you've DONE to be a disciple, you run to bed. Because you have nothing on your resume of Christianity other than meaningless rhetoric. Even the devil can quote scripture.
Night.
parkerbrothers,
You are feeding a huge load of crap you know nothing about.
#1 Jesus was the Son of the God. Not Son of God. There is only one God.
#2 Yes he did indeed die, Yes he did rise, And he was Still the Son of the Only true God. Your wording is so meaningless because you have to constantly say the same thing over and over, it's so fake.
Now when you mention Christ, You are referring to Jesus or the other Christs mentioned in the Bible? You stated, you read the other lost books of the Bible, I find that hard to believe when you can't even read what you wrote in past blogs. You try to look omnipotent regarding what I believe and how I believe, yet again, you are wrong. The thing that really has me concerned is, You feel you have a right to call me names then state you are a Christian. Do you know what you have done to your faith and the people that share that faith with you? You basically slapped them in the face.
How dare you judge me? How dare you condemn teachings that were once the part of the Bible. Therefore, You believe in men, more than Jesus. You state that God willed for he books to be removed, I guess he willed Adam and Eve to sin too? You contradict yourself so much it's almost sad and pitiful, you must be pretty lonely.
Therefore, Since you are not happy with your life, You feel that it is in your right to condemn people? You have proven that Christianity will lose alot of members because of people like you.
If anyone is true to themselves let it be known that God will reward those, but those who seek to mislead and spew forth hateful words will be condemned to a life of silence and misery within themselves. I can say for myself, I am happy with myself and how I treat others. If you want to continue brow beating people who have opinions, so be it.
Now you may continue your pointless tirade of inconsistant blabbering of falsehood, poor research, and mind-numbing rantings with child-like antics.
And you STILL can't answer a simple question. Yahweh for the Highway.
darrick 04 how many people have you fed lately?
evil monkey jesus was the son of god and still is the son of god,what is wrong with you?was u running so fast u could not stop and run into a tree? i will prey for you man.
darrick 04 how many people have you fed lately?
-- Posted by tiny76 on Thu, Mar 20, 2008, at 10:58 PM
The question isn't rhetorical because I don't claim to represent Jesus. I don't gloat about what I have done for the Lord. But I can guarantee you have done enough for my 22 years of age.
Please don't prey on me. So what god is he the son of? Please speak and write like someone with some sense. There is only one God, therefore he would be The God, Not just God. If you want to continue with your Christian-like insults, I would appreciate it because it is so much like Jesus would want you to act.
It's funny, but it seems that you, parkerbrothers, and michael bell are becoming more Anti towards being like Christ than ever. Yet, you accuse me of the same thing and I still have retained my composure.
Good night, Michael, Parker, and Tiny aka The Trinity of Anti-Christians
EVIL MONKEY!I don't consider it as being a christian insult,i have sit back for awhile and read some of these blogs,and have enjoyed a lot of them,you have people like micheal,parkerbrothers and others who are on here almost every day sharing with many viewers on how Jesus has changed each and everyone of their lifes,and then here comes people like you,who seem to get a kick out of questioning their believes and insulting their blogs,jesus warns us from the beginning that the more we follow him in our faith and the stronger we get the more we are hated,he also reminds us that people like you hated him first,so before you decide to dog somebody out question and judge their beliefs,i think you better look at yourself first and get your own life figured out,because from the way you sound on some of these comments you are a very unhappy person with no respect for others,basically what the bible calls a hypocrite,but with a little prayer and allowing jesus to work in your life he will surely bless you,but choose the path you seem be taking now,there is nowhere but for you to fall and thats flat on your face with a mouth full of dirt,because thats seems to be all that is coming out of your mouth lately.but never the less you need to work on your own relationship with jesus and stop questioning others relationship with him, if you can do that you shall be blessed for your kindness,so come at me and the others on here if you must,but truly your just hurting yourself.
You are feeding a huge load of crap you know nothing about.
-- Posted by Evil Monkey on Thu, Mar 20, 2008, at 9:54 PM
Evilmonkey,
If I feed I feed from the Bible which I believe to be the guided and protected word of God.
The Bible that you comment on:
" Hell, I believe Stargate has more fact then the Bible and I know Stargate is pure fictional."
"Simply put, the Bible isn't a really good source of information"
"I don't believe in God, Hell or any of the other crap so none of it matters. And as I grow older, I am finally given up believing in Santa and the Tooth Fairy."
Evil Monkey, as you can see we differ on the above. I am not judging you or anyone. That power is reserved for someone else. I am simply using discernment of what is written in the Bible of which we have two different opinions of what it is.
Take yours and let it carry you where ever it will.
This simple sinner will continue to hang my soul on this word I believe to be the guided and protected word of God.
darrick_04,
You have a good comment that deserves addressing. Unfortunately I have to be in Nashville at 9:00 and do not have the time to give it what it deserves now but will be back after lunch.
I know one thing,i can't speak for anybody else,but i am secure in my faith in the lord and i will not let no one change that part of me,yes i do fall from time to time because i am human,but he always picks me back up to fight another day and as long as i let him lead my path he will always lead me to victory but if i get off the path i shall surely get lost leaving myself open for attack with no shield.jesus tells us to love our neighbors,and that is what i do no matter what they say or do to me i know my reward is waiting in heaven,which from time to time i get hot on certain subjects,but all i can hope for is that people will surrender theit hearts to jesus and you will see a great change in your life starting with your heart.I wished i could say your life will be perfect after you except jesus into your life but there will be times when it seems everything is going against you,as long as we are here on earth in the flesh there will be no peace nor rest until the coming of the lord,i don't try to judge people for what they believe or how they live their life,but sometimes we all find ourselfs doing just that without realizing it,for there is only one who is judge and he is the lord our God,GOD of ABRAHAM,ISAIC and JACOB.So what ever demons you have in your life whether you are a homosexual,drugs,alcohol or any other problems in your life that is bringing you down,just believe in the lord and ask him to come into your life and mean it with all your heart and turn away from all of the these things that are causing you to fall into sin,He is there waiting for everyone,so seek him and you will find him, I just hope people don't wait till its to late for the hour glass has been turned and time is running out,How much time is left is unknown.Its better to be prepaired and waiting than late and uncertain.So until you are ready jesus is there waiting,knocking at your door, i can only hope that everyone will let him in,but i know some will not,for the things in the world have consumed and deceived many,but i will continue to prey for those who are lost and put it in Gods hands and hope people will find that path that leads to him.
TO ALL MAY GOD BLESS YOU IN YOUR JOURNEY.
darrick_04,
When Christ told Peter to feed his sheep he was not referring to corn and sorghum. He asked him to feed them spiritual food and quench their thrist with living water.
While the need for nutrition of the body is important here it is overshadowed by the need of the spiritual food. I can survive forever without nutritional food but I can not last without spiritual food for much more than 65-80 years at most.
You may have indeed done a lot of works for your 22 years of age. I just hope they were not the kind of works my God said was like filthy rags. You could feed all the worlds' children until they were obeise and still stand before a God unprotected from his wrath thinking you had done enough to stand before him on your own.
Before I understood the simple plan,I had been brainwashed into thinking I needed to go do this and go do that and don't do this and don't do that. I almost became a do-do head myself.
The scripture that Satan tried to confuse me with a lot of times was:
Matthew 7:21-23 (King James Version)
King James Version (KJV)
Public Domain
21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
After reading it I would think I can never do enough to please him. If these guys could do all that (prophesy, cast out devils, wonderful works in his name) and still be denied I did not have a chance. After all, these guys seem to be major league material and all I had was a hickory stick and a round wad of aluminum foil left over from the Thanksgiving turkey to play ball with.
Then in the ninth inning Coach HS stepped in and clarified the rules and explained the earlier disqualification that seemed contrary and frightening to me.
He explained the problem with these earlier guys was they never come to know this Jesus and what he had done for them. They were too busy telling Jesus what they had done for him (their works) and that they had earned their way in. They had stumbled over the Messiah.
Go feed one sheep and do your first good and acceptable work which is the will of the Father.
"21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."
Isn't that what you, Michael and a few others are doing on here as well? YOu are prophesizing, calling me an anti-christ etc, Yet claim you are saved? Sounds like Hypocrisy.
Evil Monkey,
I rely on the faith and work of Christ alone. His faith and his work. Not mine. He has done it all for us.
It was not the prophesying, casting out of devils and wonderful works that caused the Lord not to know them. It was their relying on them (their own good works) to save their soul instead of looking at what Christ had done for them to cause the miss of the relationship. They never knew Christ for what he was and he therefore knew them not. They knew and worked to earn a relationship with a different Christ. Perhaps the one you know.
You can not earn a relationship with my Christ. You have to take what he offered and that was his life as a sacrafice deemed worthy to cover our sins before a pure and perfect God.
Just as Adam and Eve tried to cover their sins by their own devices of the fig leaves that God deemed insufficient are we humans still guilty of ourselves by trying to cover ourselves with our own good works.
Adam and Eve probably got their first taste of seeing death when the animal was slew and they were covered with a covering of skins that God provided for them.
That foreshadowed and told of the last sacrafice to come that was promised to cover our sins. It was provided to us like the covering was to Adam and Eve. We have a choice much like them, we can reject the provided covering (Christ) and put on our own fig leaves (works) and never get to know the warmth of the provided covering or we can throw down our garments of leaves and accept the blanket.
The blanket of Christ is my wardrobe. No leaves in my closet.
What have you fashioned to cover the monkey's butt.
"What have you fashioned to cover the monkey's butt."
Your lips. Just wanted to answer your question.
You have no idea what the love of Jesus means. You are so out of synch.
Evil Monkey,
My lips or nothing I have can cover your tale.
Believe me, you would see a sewing factory and fig tree farm here instead of houses if I thought I could cover anybody's butt.
Only Jesus can provide cover for my sinning butt or yours.
You have to see you are naked before you have the desire to sew the fig leaves together.
You have to study the character of your God to know the fig dress is a bad buy, even on sale.
Now your first guess was wrong, but since you did not know better, you are allowed to use the book since it was an open book question.
"What are you going to fashion to cover a monkey's naked butt."
Sorry, but why do you need to type out along response to something you seem to repeat over and over. You have no basis, period. You are trivial, you aren't smart, nor are you witty.
Evil Monkey,
My basis is simply Christ.
Never claimed to be smart or witty. Actually the opposite of it.
Your actual comment though shows what you thought they to be. You have to suspect something is before you can defer it as not.
