Hey Kenjonn,I checked out the site. I wonder though, how do you know these writings are legit?

Quote (kejonn @ Jan. 23 2008,05:46)But you go against yourself in this post. You say Quote However to believe anything that cannot be proven literally and physically, you must abandoned your desire to reason it out and just accept it If this is true, should you not still be believing in the trinity?My answer is maybe.My answer is this: If God…[Read more]

Since the bible teaches that we have but one Lord who is Jesus, the Christ, than it is him that we should follow in obedience.Otherwise, if we deny him, we must be prepared for Luke 13:25 to come true.I really just don't see God wiping out a bunch of his children for following Jesus EVEN IF he is not the One.  I mean, we have the Bible, and if…[Read more]

Quote (TimothyVI @ Jan. 23 2008,08:55)Quote (Not3in1 @ Jan. 23 2008,05:52)Tim, maybe you're right.  Maybe you're wrong?I see a lot of “just” acts in the OT and in the NT.  There seems to be strict code of faith that is required OR you are punished in some way.  Jesus also told us that this is true.  I think he knew it for himself as well and tha…[Read more]

Quote (kejonn @ Jan. 23 2008,06:00)So we have to take it all with a grain of salt.You mean to say, we shouldn't take it very seriously?I've been thinking abou this Kejonn – maybe God has intended that his Word be sort of cryptic? Maybe it is only through mystery that we come close to knowing him? Those of us who desire more are given more…[Read more]

Tim, maybe you're right.  Maybe you're wrong?I see a lot of “just” acts in the OT and in the NT.  There seems to be strict code of faith that is required OR you are punished in some way.  Jesus also told us that this is true.  I think he knew it for himself as well and that is why he countered Satan with scripture!We are children and God is our…[Read more]

Quote (TimothyVI @ Jan. 22 2008,22:52)Quote (Not3in1 @ Jan. 22 2008,18:27) I felt as though I had heard from the Lord, but then I doubted.  It happens.  I am not immune from doubt – none of us are – even the most devote here have admitted to doubt in their walks with the Lord.So very true Mandy.In spite of what apologists may make of the final wo…[Read more]

As far as the inspiration of scripture, I have to say I was shocked to my very core when I learned that 1 John 5:7 had been tampered with. I think I've shared this story before, but it was close to midnight on night when I learned this information online. I woke my husband up and asked him where his bible was (he had a different version than…[Read more]

Quote (TimothyVI @ Jan. 22 2008,23:00)I don't believe that the gospel as preached by most evangelists is particularly good news.To be informed that before I told you about Jesus you were safe from hell but now that I have told you,you will spend eternity burning in hell if you do not believe me.That is not good news.”Woe to them that call evil…[Read more]

Quote (kejonn @ Jan. 23 2008,00:17)I can't quite agree Mandy, not in the way you put it. I don't think you need to turn over your intellect to have a belief in God. That's selling people short. I do believe, however, that you have to turn over your intellect in fully believing that one particular religion is the only way.Yes, I see what you mean.…[Read more]

I just checked my email and there was yet another hateful email from Ken:From:To:[email protected] Subject:Re: Bye Date:Monday, January 21, 2008 3:35:46 PM HEY BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT I COULD STILL READ POST HUH?FORGET IT MANDY I JUST READ YOUR POST.  YOU ARE A SICK LITTLE GIRL.  I HARASSED YOU JUST LIKE I HARASSED YOU TO THE S…[Read more]

OK, I just went to the website you offered and read the entire thing.It all makes sense, Stu. Really it does. It is one way to look at things and draw your conclusions.All I can say is that there is something that happens to a human soul when they turn over their brains (yes, turn over their intellect) and allow themselves to trust something or…[Read more]

Happy,Do you think it's possible to deceive God's elect? Who are these “elect” children if God does not show favoritism?Maybe the “elect” are those who have a pure heart? Maybe they are only known to God? I guess as we hold on to our faith, we can only hope we are counted among these lucky, elect souls…..

Well, I'm sure that when they do hear about Jesus they will probably hear it from a JW. Since they are one of the only groups I know that takes evangelism to new heights. They sure won't hear it from the Trinity Network…….

Quote (Is 1:18 @ Jan. 22 2008,18:11)You know Mandy, when Towshab first arrived I was certain I witnessed a spiritual reaction of aversion in your posts. In my experience sometimes the Holy Spirit will manifest Himself this way in the presence of evil (refering to the spirit Tow carries). What do you think about that?Hi Isaiah and David,Yes, my…[Read more]

Quote (Is 1:18 @ Jan. 22 2008,17:39)Quote (Not3in1 @ Jan. 21 2008,19:19) Good to chat with you!  Look forward to hearing more.Goodnight, bro.Mandy, I have a relative of my wife staying with us till Friday, I probably won't be able to took at that post till the weekend. I will make it a priority then.No problem. I know “real life” takes priority…[Read more]

Thanks for starting this thread, David. I will watch it closely!

t8,If Ken is not able to post, why is he still able to PM?  Not only is he sending me emails now but he is also sending me PM's!!  I guess I shouldn't put off changing my email address!  The harassment continues….
