Amen brother. I pray that every Christian will do the same as you have been led to do..............bro Frank

Nobody said that it was all rainbows and unicorns. God gives time to all men and desires that all men repent and believe on Jesus. God's judgment comes after death. (Heb 9:27). Again, ROM 5:8-10 is quite clear that God loves sinners enough to die for them. The text doesn't say, Behold, the lamb who takes away the sin of the ELECT. He loved you and me while we were yet sinners. Commanding all men everywhere to repent.

TMK,

Requote...

I have read the scriptures. No where in scripture does He state that He loves those in Hell. In fact, there are many places that it say the Lord hates certain things and people.

It is not all rainbows and unicorns. Eternal seperation from God is not love towards the seperated. It is judgement and punishment, where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth. Where the worm never dies...

Ok kjcword. I see that my question will not be answered.

Be blessed.

While I diasagree strongly with your premise, what is really objectionable is the glee you seem to take in making this statement.

BrotherTom,

I read your first few posts and was beginning to see that you were making some sense to this whole thing about voting and our rights as a Christian to pray and be led by God to make a choice of the candidate that we believe would be more in line with Christian principles. Then you took a u-turn in the road and went completely against what you previously said because of articles you read about Romney in the past.

Now Tom are you going to be a pacific’s and do nothing when it comes to voting because of someone’s past. You stated earlier why you would vote for the one running on conservative principles. You stated all the things Obama’s done and what about the next 4 years. How much worse will it get if he is in there for 4 more years. At least the other candidate will be running on a more conservative and moral platform and for that very reason will be doing things more toward Christian principles. We know that the one in there now will be running on the sodomite and pro-abortion platform as well as his out spoken support for these ungodly things.

Now Tom since the president has been more out spoken recently for so much ungodliness it leads me to believe that he will do more corrupt things and do so much more damage in the next 4 years. I as a Christian really need to pray and act according to what is going on now. I must act by making sure my “right to vote” is exercised against the ungodliness that I know is being carried out now and continues to be carried out. I must do what I can with my “one vote” to make sure that what I know is evil in that I am standing against it.

I don’t know what a new president will do in the next 4 years but I do know how much evil is being perpetrated on a daily basis with this present administration. Although we all know Mormonism is a cult, we also know that there moral values is much more in line with true Christianity than the values of the present administration.

After giving this thing some considerable thought and knowing that Jesus said “to render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s and to God the things that are God’s”, then I have to pay taxes and also have a responsibility as a US citizen and as a citizen of heaven to make the best choices after prayer that I’m led to make. So if I don’t vote then I did nothing concerning the present administration and if every Christian who believes in moral principles does not vote then most likely the present administration will continue with its ungodly agenda. If I vote for a new president (not knowing for sure what it will be like) then I am voting against the present administration ( I do know how ungodly it has been and continues to be), and this leads me to believe in my heart stating before God that I am against what he is against, and that I will pray for the new president, his salvation, his moral decisions, and him having the ability to be a good president for the people of the USA and the world at large.

Blessing…from brother rbanks

Solomon101,

You keep saying something to the effect of "not really in this debate...but..." Might as well join in. You are already involved. :)


There are too many to look up for you atm. But one that comes across my mind is the following...

Psalm 11:5-6,

5 The LORD tests the righteous,
But the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates.
6 Upon the wicked He will rain coals;
Fire and brimstone and a burning wind
Shall be the portion of their cup.
