Billy Graham taught hatred (gays, non-believers), so I assume he's in "hell"?

    So now you're calling the Bible a lie? Shame!

    Revelation 20:12 (KJV) = "And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works."

    Tell that lie to all of the dead Indians that the Christians slaughtered in the Western Hemisphere.

    Where did Yeshua say that all people are equal?

    They've never read their favorite ethnocentric Middle Eastern Jewish religious fairy tale. They are blissfully ignorant.

    According to the biblical fairy tale when you croak you will go to one of three places:
    1) death
    2) the sea
    3) hell

    Revelation 20:13-15 (KJV) =
    "13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

    14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

    15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."

    So the good news is that even if you end up in hell you won't stay there forever.

    In Islam when you croak you just stay dead until Judgment Day and then you are resurrected. At that time you get one of the various paradises or you get tossed into hell, where most of the people are women. Most people actually believe in the Islamic version than in the biblical version. Remember, in the biblical version hell is temporary. You go to hell when you die but you get out on Judgment Day. In the Islamic version when you die you wait until Judgment Day and then get resurrected. At that time you may end up in hell for eternity.

    So where is Billy Graham? He's either just plain dead, in the sea, or in hell. But he will make bail on Judgment Day and then he could end up in the lake of fire but he will no longer be in hell.

    Why do you think the Protestant religion is legit? It was started by a horny Catholic priest who liked the ladies and wanted to be important like the Pope.

    Yeshua was going around flapping his jaws about how he was the son of Yahweh and that no one got to the father except through him. So when the mob accused the woman of worshiping him (aka "adultery" in Bible speak) as a God he had to wimp out. Given the status that he claimed for himself he was the one without sin and should have cast the first stone. It was his obligation to do so. His failure to do it shows that he was just a loudmouth fake. Moses would have whacked Yeshua in a second.

    Do you follow all of the 25+ commandments in the Sermon on the Mount? Sure, you may not kill or commit adultery but do you pray in public? Do you worry about your life? Do you give to those who ask you? Do you follow all of the commandments from the Old Testament as well? If not then you are on the naughty list (Matthew 5:19).

    The "Cross" meaning God's plan of Salvation.

    That o
    I Corinthians 2:8-9 talk of Salvation being of grace, not of works. When John speaks of the Great White throne Judgement, that is reserved EXCLUSIVELY to the unbelievers.

    So what happens to the believers? Don't they have Judgment Day as well?

    Read your links, utter hog wash. They don't even try be honest, they don't even try to make your argument. Just almost random sentences from the Bible.

    Worst fail ever.

    No, I don't.

    Do you still worship the gods of the Roman Empire? Do you follow the guidelines of Mao's Little Red Book?

    We are again seeing why every Christian should vote straight Republican in every election for every office. Notice the rabid, pro-active hatred and sneering by the Democrats on this thread. It is continuous on the forum and not just on the religion board.

    It isn't that they just post they don't believe in God or the Bible, they are atheists and leave it at that. They have to furious and incessantly rant out their pure hatred of Christianity and sneer hatefully at all Christians. They are dangerous in political and possibly even more very real ways to all Christians.

    Think of how extreme it is to be reading rantings that Jesus was worse than Hitler, Charles Manson, Stalin and KJU. Jesus was a pauper who walked about preaching non-violence, self sacrifice, forgiveness, and was a strict pacifist - saying that is how God wants people to act. Yet in pure hatred declare that Jew for what he said was worse than what Hitler actually did, including to Jews such as him.

    We need to remember Christians recently in the USA HAVE been victims of mass shootings by shooters who ranted equally against Christianity and Christians in such pro-active hatred, where there have been no mass shootings of atheist by Christians. Minimally, the thoughts and extreme emotionalism in messages such as those of Freedom Seeker and The Wynd are exorbitantly dangerous to Christians on a political front, if no other way.

    It is pure hatred, unlimited and irrational. I can not recount how many times I have posted I'm not a Christian. Despite this, merely because I do not join in the lies, bigotries, grotesquely twisted logic and raw hatred of Christians then they declare I MUST be one of them. They are dangerous not just to Christians again at least politically, but to everyone.

    Do you think the Democratic Party is legit? It was started by a slave owning mass murdering sociopath and the only president to defy the Supreme Court for the purpose of mass murder, putting thousands of children, women and elderly on death marches in the winter for the purpose of stealing land they legally owned.

    Not one atheist can name one atheist country in all of known world history that lasted a century or that did not degrade rapidly to mass murdering their own people.

    As the country becomes increasingly less Christian, is it becoming more civilized? Let's talk about the rate of mass shooting on a timeline compared to the decline in the number of people in regular attendance in churches. Or how about suicide rates. Anyone care to do that?

    I just realized there is a poll about Billy Graham.

    Can anyone name anything Billy Graham actually DID that was evil and immoral? Or is this just rabid hatred ranting against freedom of speech if you are a Christian?

    Why is that, FS? I thought you and she were on the same page. Did you watch it all? OK, here is another one I feel you might like.

    You really do misunderstand Scripture. The preacher took it upon himself to bring his people back to Jahweh. His concern was for his people. If that is bigotry then Trump is a bigot, Brexiteers in the UK are bigots, and so are a million others people who are looking after their own/own national interests.

    What the preacher actually said, and what people believe he said - to make him divine - is debatable.

    Matthew 24:33, “So also, when you see all these things, you know that he is near, at the very gates.” : “Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place” (Matthew 24:34).

    all these things” that are going to take place within a generation. It doesn't actually include the return of Jesus. Previous verse says 'all these things'. - you will know he is near'. A generation in scripture can mean many things.

    Remember I'm an agnostic.

    Or.... could it be that G-d has set all of us up in such a way that we
    can't help but favour our own families..... our own people groups that we fit in with.....
    and so when we die we tend to meet the person who we consider to be our greatest mentor.......

    .... if the writer who created Scientology.... I think his name was L. Ron Hubbard.... .managed to genuinely
    repent of his scheme to control the lives and minds of others.......
    and if L. Ron made it into one of the levels of heaven.......
    even the outer darkness level that is a lot better than the alternative........
    the outer darkness level of heaven / paradise is the home of the "foolish virgins...."
    who did not have much oil in their lamps.....
    but they were sincere Christians... just extremely lazy... .or proud..... or self righteous....
    or overly critical of others..... or engaged in gossip and slander and did not really repent........
    or looked down on people groups who G-d loved and had huge plans for.......

    ... Perhaps if a Scientologist passed on... they might be able to meet the
    repentant and humble L. Ron Hubbard..... and he might tell them something along the line of:

    From the sub section The Truth of Grace
    Pastor Rick Joyner:

    I could be wrong... but I do suspect that my two primary mentors......
    Evangelist Garner Ted Armstrong and his dad Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong would come to view themselves........
    and their ministries......
    as having fallen into similar problems.......... very, very, very serious problems......
    to what this famous Christian reported to Pastor Rick in that visionary dream he was given back in 1995.....

    After their deaths.... both Mr. Garner Ted Armstrong and Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong would feel somewhat ashamed of themselves for not going on to a higher level of wisdom and understanding that they had attained while alive.......
    because they left many students in my situation......
    almost unable to understand the massive truth of G-d's plans for the LGBT community for these Latter Days........

    I go into one of the most important plans that i suspect G-d has for the LGBT community here:



    P. M. Justin Trudeau assumes LGBTQ community are NOT pro-life?

    Now my theory on this is that even Messiah Yeshua - Jesus was not free to
    go everywhere where he wanted to go........ exactly when he wanted to go there......

    ... Rabbi Yeshua - Jesus stated that he was almost reading a script that had been given to him.....

    .... that he did what he was told to do.... and said what he was shown to say........
    and went where he was shown to go.........

    but.... he was planning to set up the Ancient of Days G-d the Mother.....
    the Comforter... the Holy Spirit.... to come to the earth within fifty days of
    when he was resurrected........
    and within a few months or years......
    I am not certain which......
    He knew that a vision would be given to Cephas/ Peter showing him that he could now reach out to all nations on earth........

    John 5:20

    "For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel."

    Jhn 5:36

    "But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me."

    Jhn 14:28

    "Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I."

    If my understanding of the English translation of the following verses is at all accurate.....
    and if the English is a good translation of the original Hebrew, Aramaic or Greek then......
    it sure sounds to me like Messiah Yeshua - Jesus also stated that the Comforter.....
    the Holy Spirit..... like the Father... was also greater than him.... in his human form......


    Jhn 14:16

    And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

    Jhn 14:26

    But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

    Jhn 15:26

    But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

    Jhn 16:7

    Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

    But isn't it funny how a man who had been a drug addict for 22 years can be the man with the story.......
    that can so affect my daughter......
    that by listening to this man over the last two years her life is so transformed that
    her mom and I are in a state of awe?
