@@seanrathmakedisciples1508 it's manipulation of an older genuine man who's probably living a decent life and this man is not gentle. He's using verbal gymnastics to make him feel like he's been some sort of criminal for which he must then feel guilty and which he then springs a way for him to be "forgiven" and "saved". That is join my religion. It's utterly dispicable emotional blackmail and is nothing more than manipulation.

@Kevin HM8404 He's not entertained, He's heartbroken. He loves you, but you love your sin; He hates your sin, but He doesn't want you to go to hell. Please listen to me, Kevin. You and I broke God's law. We're both guilty, you and I. If you're in court, ignorance of the law is no excuse, and disbelief doesn't negate reality. That's like sticking your head in the sand, thinking you'll be fine because "If I can't see God, God can't see me". But you're deceiving yourself. You and I broke God's law. And so I want you to think about the most vile thing you've done that you're deeply ashamed of in your heart. That thing that nobody knows about, that you haven't told a single soul. That thing you've tried to convince yourself it didn't happen. God saw it. And still, He loved you enough to step down from glory, take on flesh, and endure the punishment for all of those horrible sins so we wouldn't have to. See, God loves us even though we don't deserve it. As a just judge, he's got to punish someone for your sins. And as a loving father, he stepped down from glory, sent His Son, and Christ took the punishment Himself; then he defeated your greatest enemy, death itself, and was resurrected because death could not hold Him. He offers us the free gift of eternal life. All we've got to do is repent and trust in Jesus Christ. I know you hate Christians, but I love you and I care for you, and the thought of you ending up in hell grieves my heart. And because I love you, and care for you, I'll pray for you. May God bless and keep you.

[@skystorm569]

@Kevin HM8404 As an atheist, you wouldn't harass Christians if you didn't hate us. Or at least dislike us. But man, there's evidence all around. The complexity of the world and all that's in it, how it all works together, and how beautiful it can be, it speaks, and is but a whisper of the brilliance of the Creator. And there's scientific facts and medical guidelines in the Bible that weren't established by the secular world for thousands of years after the Bible was written. It's evidence of divine inspiration. It grieves me that you don't want to listen. It doesn't have to be this way. Genuinely, I don't want you to end up in hell. As humans, we're like a rich man who's drowning in a lake with a bag of gold tied to his waist. We don't want to let go of it even if it means we'll drown. Our sins are like the gold, but there's so much more to life. What shall a man profit if he gains the whole world but loses his very soul? Please think about it. I care for you.

And the GB knows it and I know they know theyre lying because they had to alter the bible to say what they wanted it to say.

My website: Bibleapostle dot com I do wish you would prayerfully study this topic again. Jesus is indeed God the Bible is clear on this. But you have to prayerfully ask for him to show you with full faith he will teach you and he will. But he prepared to find what you don’t currently believe. Jesus tells us he is the Almighty in Rev 1:7,8 and the Father tells us his son is NOT an angel but is God in Heb 1:5-13. Rom 9:5 tells us Jesus is God over all. He cannot be a little god since the Bible tells us those are false gods. He is not his father he is not the Holy Spirit but he is God it is a title not a persons name. 🙏🏻 please continue to study there are so many more scriptures that prove his deity. Even the OT is filled with proof of who Jesus is.

My website: Bibleapostle dot com except the Bible tells us he is the Almighty, eternal Father, mighty God, creator of all things. All titles used for God the Father are used for Jesus.

[@ngreat4390]

My website: Bibleapostle dot com Bible Apostle, so you're saying Jesus is Angel Michael when God never exalted any Angel to his throne? That Jesus returned secretly in the clouds in 1914 even though he said all flesh would see him return? Something is wrong with anyone who thinks like that. You need revelation from the Holy Spirit and not too much Bible study to really be a real Apostle.

[@ngreat4390]

My website: Bibleapostle dot com Michael is an Archangel in charge of defending the saints much like Gabriel always brings good news. Satan was like Michael before he rebelled. Jesus is the word of God made flesh and not without him was anything made that was made. Michael is not the word of God made flesh. Michael is not just a title, he's an Archangel in charge of war but he has a boss by whom he was made named the word of God, Jesus, the Son, the Lamb, the king of Glory, our High priest, the bridegroom, the Alpha and omega, the beginning and end. There are very many titles that Jesus is known as in heaven depending on his office. Even we will have new names in heaven. Michael is a servant of Jesus who commanded Daniel to not worship him. But when Daniel saw Christ, he fell like a dead man at his feet. Jesus Christ is the word of God made flesh. Michael is not the word of God. Jesus Christ is God. Mighty God.

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed.

They could wait until someone comes up and comments on the shirt or they could ask passerbys the same question until they get a fish that bites. Then they could ask if they can film them.

Jesus gives clear instructions for everybody to follow, like to drink the wine and eat the bread. JW thinks those are instruction just for just the annointed, but Jesus did not give separate instructions for the great crowd. They are instruction for Everybody. In a 1985 Watchtower, JW said that Jesus was not the mediator for everybody but just for the annointed. They were still trying to figure out who Jesus was. It's really sad.

Repent is not “...of your sins”...it is to change what you believe in to believing in the Lord Jesus Christ to save you and HIM ALONE.

Danilo Simpson It depends on what your definition of REPENT is...there is no such phrase “repent of your sins” in the entire Holy Bible. It’s in the Book of Mormon though. We ARE to repent for salvation, but if you trust and believe in Jesus Christ alone, that He is God in the flesh, and in His finished work, and discontinue all other beliefs in any other ways to connect with “God”, then you have ALREADY repented.

We all have sinned and we all need a savior.. There are only two types of people in this world people who are in Christ and have received your free gift of forgiveness and salvation and Paradise Luke 23:34-44. And people who still have received their free gift of salvation and are still in the Adams family. We all need to do business directly with Jesus to be rescued from the kingdom of darkness and brought into Jesus kingdom of light and love Colossians 1:13. When we call on Jesus directly then Jesus immediately snatches us from darkness and brings us into his kingdom. John 1:12. Paul called on Jesus and was rescued from darkness, Acts 9;14-21 .the thief next to Jesus called on Jesus directly Luke23:34-44 ,Stephen called on Jesus directly Acts 7:59. Everyone who calls on the Lord Jesus will be saved.No use calling on Michael as he is only an Angel.

Note in the Bible how often it is used in conjunction with imploring God to listen, to see, to remember, to arise, and to save. 2 Chronicles 6:40 Now, O my God, let your eyes be open and your ears attentive to the prayer of this place. Ezra 9:6 “O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift my face to you, my God, for our iniquities have risen higher than our heads, and our guilt has mounted up to the heavens. Nehemiah 5:19 Remember for my good, O my God, all that I have done for this people. Nehemiah 6:14 Remember Tobiah and Sanballat, O my God, according to these things that they did, and also the prophetess Noadiah and the rest of the prophets who wanted to make me afraid. Nehemiah 13:14 Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and do not wipe out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my God and for his service. Nehemiah 13:22 Then I commanded the Levites that they should purify themselves and come and guard the gates, to keep the Sabbath day holy. Remember this also in my favor, O my God, and spare me according to the greatness of your steadfast love. Nehemiah 13:29 Remember them, O my God, because they have desecrated the priesthood and the covenant of the priesthood and the Levites. Nehemiah 13:31 I provided for the wood offering at appointed times, and for the firstfruits. Remember me, O my God, for good. Psalm 3:7 Arise, O Lord! Save me, O my God! For you strike all my enemies on the cheek; you break the teeth of the wicked. Psalm 22:2 O my God, I cry by day, but you do not answer, and by night, but I find no rest. Psalm 25:2 O my God, in you I trust; let me not be put to shame; let not my enemies exult over me. Psalm 38:21 Do not forsake me, O Lord! O my God, be not far from me! Psalm 40:8 I delight to do your will, O my God; your law is within my heart.” Psalm 40:17 As for me, I am poor and needy, but the Lord takes thought for me. You are my help and my deliverer; do not delay, O my God! Psalm 59:1 Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; protect me from those who rise up against me. Psalm 71:4 Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and cruel man. Psalm 71:12 O God, be not far from me; O my God, make haste to help me! Psalm 71:22 I will also praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praises to you with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel. Psalm 83:13 O my God, make them like whirling dust, like chaff before the wind. Psalm 102:24 “O my God,” I say, “take me not away in the midst of my days-you whose years endure throughout all generations!” Daniel 9:18 O my God, incline your ear and hear. Open your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by your name. For we do not present our pleas before you because of our righteousness, but because of your great mercy. Daniel 9:19 O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive. O Lord, pay attention and act. Delay not, for your own sake, O my God, because your city and your people are called by your name.

mbt of nj, Here's something else to consider..... ABC News Sept. 23, 2009 "Does Texting "OMG" Amount To Blasphemy?" ( Full story was on Nightline) For hundreds of years, people have found ways to avoid using the Lord's name in vain. Words like gosh and golly, both dating back to the 1700s, served as euphemisms for God. It is a Jewish tradition to write "G-D" to show respect. Exclamations like "Oh, my God," and "Jesus Christ" were rarely used in polite conversations and drew rebuke when they were.

[@mitchmiller2382]

@DaViiloW805 . Jehovah is not God's name. It's Yahweh. The four consonants that make up the Divine name are for a two syllable word. That is BASIC Hebrew. Jehovah is three syllables and was made up by Raymundus Martini, a 13th century monk. The name Jehovah has also been used long before the Bible Students/Jehovah's Witnesses started using it by the Freemasons, who really get off on using it - and they are cultic/occultic. The word Jehovah is also used in occultic rituals (Kim and Mikey show a video of a man who does sacrifice to false gods in the form of bulls which use different names of God EXCEPT Yahweh). ALSO the word 'name' doesn't primarily represent sounds made into a word, 'name' in the Biblical context meant the nature of the person. Jesus let His Father's name be known by His obedience to Him and displaying God's character wherever He went. That's why Jesus could say "He who has seen me has seen the Father" (also see Heb. 1:3). The way the name 'Jehovah' is used by its adherents reeks of fetishism or superstition.

[@323noone]

He simply meant one that doesn't have the name improperly inputted into the NT, like the JWs have done to hide the deity of Jesus.
