Maybe I'm wrong about which post you meant Mr. Steve but if you mean 942767's post above yours, then how is it painful?
August 4, 2007 at 9:43 pm#63167Mr. SteveParticipantHave you tried to read it?

Hi Mr. Steve:What is painful to read about what I have responded?
August 4, 2007 at 10:17 pm#63177Mr. SteveParticipantTo 942767;
Calling all cars. It wasn't your post it was michaels. Evidently, we were all responding contemporaneously to the same thread and when I just made a short post “that was painful to read” it wasn't clear which post I was referring to. Michael believes that if you say “I am” that you using the name of God. When he writes he follows the same rule. Today he said that Paul was anti-christ when Paul wrote “I am” crucified with Christ… If you read some of Michaels posts you can verify what I am saying is true. Oh no, did I just say “I am”? Michael if you're reading this, don't think that I was claiming to be God, I'm not, but I am a child of God. Whoops, slipped again. I got an idea instead of saying “I am” just say I'm. Use contractions. Right on!

Hi Mr. Steve:Thanks for the explanation.
God Bless
August 4, 2007 at 11:31 pm#63187942767ParticipantI sent the following message and it appears that it was returned to me once more, but here it is, the response to your question.
Quote Hi Chap: You asked: “If people who are going to hell are going to be eternally destr=
oyed, why does it matter that their punishment will be according to their w=
orks?”God is a God of justice. =A0Do you believe that someone who did the terribl=
e works that Hiltler did should not be punished according to what he did? =
=A0Everyone will give an account to God for the life that they have lived i=
n this body.This is what the scripture states:
11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from who=
se face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place fo=
r them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the b=
ooks were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: a=
nd the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books=
, according to their works. 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in i=
t; and death and hell F32 delivered up the dead which were in them: and the=
y were judged every man according to their works. 14 And death and hell wer=
e cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And whosoever wa=
s not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.[QUO=
TE]Even in the justice system that we have in this world people who go to pris=
on are punished according to the crime that they have committed.I hope that this answers your questions.
[/QUOTE]August 5, 2007 at 12:50 pm#63221IM4TruthParticipantHello Chap
I know, it has been a while since I replied to you for anything, but ever since I showed my wife this side, the chair never gets cool enough for me to sit in it.
I want you to know, and that goes for every one, I am never offended by someone belief or opinion. My interest in this side is, to be of help with what I understand, but not to make it doctrine.
I try to show what I believe and why, and try to back it with scripture; which I believe should be the only way.
I also have a personal interest in history and world events, this has helped me to identify prophecies which otherwise I would not have been able to do.
I am not much of a talker, and that is the reason I don't engage in the going back and forth conversations, I leave that to my wife, she loves it.
Ask me a direct question and I will respond.
Love and respect to all, God blessAugust 5, 2007 at 5:55 pm#63229Not3in1Participant“MrsIM4truth” and “IM4truth” are so close that now I'm not sure WHO I've been reading, or WHO I've been responding to?
It would be very helpful to everyone if you both could have your own accounts. I want to hear from BOTH of you because you both obviously have some great things to add (I've really enjoyed your posts). But it would be nice to read “IM4truth” and know exactly who is speaking instead of having to guess while I'm reading.
I guess “MRS” usually puts that at the top of her posts, come to think of it – but it would just be nice for readers if you had your own account. Thanks so much
August 5, 2007 at 9:07 pm#63236IM4TruthParticipantNot3in1 I tried to do that without success, maybe because we use the same computer, I don't know why? I will just say Mrs. that is easier to spot.
Mrs.August 5, 2007 at 10:57 pm#63244acertainchapParticipantQuote (Not3in1 @ Aug. 04 2007,13:22) Hi Chap, Looks like you have your very own thread! Cool!
I have tried to respond to your PM's, but like I said a few times on various threads…….your email keeps coming back to me in “error.” In other words, your email is rejecting my emails! I'm not sure what is wrong with your email? Maybe you have something blocking emails from Internet sites? I don't know…..but I've tried at least 3 different times to respond to your PM's.
It's OK if you don't believe the same way other people do. Some folks on this site have some very unique theories (maybe some believe this of me, too! Ha!), nevertheless, it is up to you to pray and ask God to direct your paths – and he will!
Depression and anxiety are so widespread these days. I believe that Satan loves to rob us of our JOY, and do you know why? The JOY of the LORD is our strength! If we are down and defeated, we cannot be joyful, and if we are not joyful – the enemy can come in and reap havoc in our lives.
Let me encourage you, brother. Don't let people get you down. Our Father loves you and you are precious to him. He has a work for you to accomplish or you wouldn't be here at all. He needs you to minister to this generation of believer's and non-believer's. This is our time to work for the LORD. It's our time to rejoice and praise God. It's our time in the sun!
Read the Psalms outloud and sing to the LORD. It's hard to be down when you are praising and worshipping. Talk to a friend – get a Latte – go for a walk – breathe deep and appreciate being alive – help someone! And count on us to pray for you and uphold you before our Father. I will pray for you now and tonight before I go to bed, Chap. You are deeply loved by God, and by us here.
Jude 24
To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy – to the only God our Saviour, be glory……
Psalm 33:20-22
We wait in hope for the LORD; he is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name.
May your unfailing love rest upon us, O LORD, even as we put our hope in you.
Thanks very much. This site is awesome in that it gives me opportunities to fellowship and bring people the good news of salvation.August 5, 2007 at 11:02 pm#63245acertainchapParticipantThis site is awesome in another way in that I have made many friends and there are many friendly people here.
August 5, 2007 at 11:38 pm#63247acertainchapParticipantQuote (michaels @ Aug. 04 2007,16:52) hi what are pm's ?not many talk with me either.yet me enjoy speaking gods truth,even with no reply.me think it would be terible for you to leave,for you have always had some good input,even if god has not yet showed us all the same things.me love you and me sure everyone elts does to,for god said not to be easily offended,and believe me god loves you and so does every one elts,so dont walk away so quickly,for god uses us all,to help lead each other to him,may god lead you into all truth,even if it is his will that you go,me sure he will lead you in right paths.for he is our only teacher.
It's ok dude, you can use 'I am' or 'I'm'. God honestly isn't going to be offended because we are our own selves just like God is his own selve. God made us in his own image and were created and meant to live and dwell with him forever. Therefore it isn't anything bad if we refer to ourselves as 'I' or say that 'I am' or 'I'm' like God does; after all we are made in the likeness of the Father. If you want to do this then its your choice, in my honest opinion I think its silly, but does my opinion matter to you. Anyway, I feel that God doesn't care if you refer to yourself as me all the time or I/I'm. Either way is ok. If it doesn't affect your salvation and go against God's word, then its ok. That God is 'against' or for your concept, isn't indicated anywhere in scripture to my knowledge. The Bible is clear, though, on the truth that everyone should not under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, use God's name in vain.Peace Bro!
August 6, 2007 at 7:54 am#63282kejonnParticipantChap,
You PMed me before too. One time you asked me if I liked Star Wars. I'll admit I did not answer that right away but my mind was focused on other things. When I did answer, I too got the bounced email message. Sorry.Anyway, my answer is “yes” and “no”. I liked the old SW, but the newer ones had some really crummy acting.
August 6, 2007 at 12:03 pm#63299acertainchapParticipantI did get your PM response. Heaven is changing my old email address so it will go directly to the address that I indicated. I'm not going to post the address where everyone can see, but the messages will get to me after Heaven changes it. Turns out that the address I gave was somebody elses. Who knew?

Hi, Mrs!Oh, yes, using the same computer might prohibit you from having your own screen name – I didn't think of that. Maybe ask “t8” in the Help Desk? But I'll just remember to watch for the “Mrs” and when I don't see it, I'll know it's your hubby!
Have a wonderful week,
MandyAugust 6, 2007 at 5:41 pm#63316thehappymanParticipantHi Chap,
