“If any of you wants to be my follower, you must turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross, and follow me. If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will save it. And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul? If anyone is ashamed of me and my message in these adulterous and sinful days, the Son of Man will be ashamed of that person when he returns in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.” (Mark 8:34-38)JESUS OF NAZARETH

“Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you. This is the essence of all that is taught in the law and the prophets. (Matthew 7:12)
“For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16-17)
“And so I tell you, keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. (Luke 11:9-10)

Luke 6:45
A good person produces good things from the treasury of a good heart, and an evil person produces evil things from the treasury of an evil heart. What you say flows from what is in your heart.
Luke 12:29-32
"And don't be concerned about what to eat and what to drink. Don't worry about such things.30 These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers all over the world, but your Father already knows your needs.31 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and he will give you everything you need.
Psalm 1:1-6
BOOK ONE (Psalms 1–41)
1 Oh, the joys of those who do not
follow the advice of the wicked,
or stand around with sinners,
or join in with mockers.
2 But they delight in the law of the LORD,
meditating on it day and night.
3 They are like trees planted along the riverbank,
bearing fruit each season.
Their leaves never wither,
and they prosper in all they do.

First i want to address somthing that i have come to realize is widespread in americas so called "christian community". Its seems to me that everyone seems to be missing the POINT! To say you BELIEVE in somthing is simply to express a thought. To express your thought that Jesus the man existed and died for our sins DOESNT MEAN THAT YOU ARE FORGIVEN FOR ALL YOURS SINS AND WILL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE! To truly
BELIEVE
is to
PRACTICE
his TEACHINGS EVERY DAY!!!!! LOVE!FORGIVENESS!TRUTH!It is NOT EASY! Especially in todays f'd up society. I promise you that the harder you try to find and pursue god the harder it will be to resist sin bc this guy >>> :twisted: .
RELIGION and an individuals SPIRITUALITY are not the same! You guys who dont believe we have souls/spirits have obviously never EXPERIENCED anything supernatural OR GOD is just a BIG INCONVENIENCE in the sinful life that society has led you to pursue.

Ecclesiastes 3
A Time for Everything
There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
a
time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.

Don't ruin your own thread dude. My advice, stick to scripture and other spiritual writings that you have submitted and if you want to start preaching then get a different thread going. It's your thread though so whatever you want to do.

Romans 8:31-39 (New American Standard Bible)
31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us?
32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?
33 Who will bring a charge against God's elect? God is the one who justifies;
34 who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, yes, rather who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us.
35 Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, orperil, or sword?
36 Just as it is written,
"FOR YOUR SAKE WE ARE BEING PUT TO DEATH ALL DAY LONG;
WE WERE CONSIDERED AS SHEEP TO BE SLAUGHTERED."
37 But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.
38 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

No the Hebrew term "fool" meant morally deficient. So this guy was doing a bunch of bad things along with not believing God and that is why he was called a fool. Its not just one guy anyway, its all people under that spectrum
