A brother cries for help and you ignore him shameful

Derrick75 cries for help. 44 people read the post and only three respond?

This is shameful. How sick will the body of Christ become before Christ comes back and seperates the wheat from the chaff? You will get what you give and none will be wronged.

No wonder Islam is the fastest growing religion.

You 40 who ignored him should be ashamed. I'm ashamed for you.

however,
in the forum, derrickxx might be made up, untrue, or real - no way to tell, eh?
after all, most of the internet is 97% false or more.
and people who follow islam will still die, no matter what anyone else does.

Don't give up on us, Marke! Some may be praying w/o responding. I feel dumb sometimes when someone spills their guts and I say "praying " or something like that. Also, that was a big, honest and heartfelt post to digest and you want to make sure you say the right thing in the right way.

I figured that's why that post didn't get as many responses as it did. Not only that, but it's very possible that those views are not 40 seperate people but other viewing the post after another user has viewed it. In other words double and tripple viewing.

Also, it's possible some people sent PMs or personal messages. So I Would get to down on us that didn't respond in the post.

This is what I was thinking too. Not everyone has to reply in order to pray for the guy. I read his post and my heart goes out to him. I'm not really sure there's anything I can say to him to instill some hope into him. I'll pray for him though.

This may be true, but the Christian has the obligation to believe the best in someone else unless 1> get a bad check in your spirit about them, or 2> their fruit proves them to not be what/who they are.
Plus if he was fibbing, he needs prayer
to turn Him to God.

Sometimes all someone needs is to know that somebody else cares & is helping them lift this to the Lord. It's better to post small, than them think nobody is listening/cares.

(I know from experience.)

I agree!

Has DerrickXX ever updated to tell everyone what's going on?

I have to agree. Just a small note of encouragement might save a life.

Wow, what a total misuse of the verse. The reason Christ and the angels separate the wheat from the chaff is because we don't know the difference, yet you apparently do. You judge those who read, what if they are guests? You have little to no idea about the situation of any of them, nor if the three who responded read the thread more than once, yet you talk about the body being sick?

Wow.

Dear marke. You aroused quite a bit of righteous anger with your message. If we go by the numbers you quoted, it does sound very callous and unloving. I am not trying to excuse myself in any way, but I would like to point out for many of us, " Thank God for seeing our hearts, thank God for knowing the Truth." God is the Only One who has a right to blame, or even condemn, we humans only see what our eyes tell us, but sadly that can be very misleading. I have learned much through being mistaken again and again. God sees our hearts, God ONLY knows the truth. I say this humbly and with love, marke. Greetings from Emmy, your sister in Christ.

Very judgemental. I read and did not respond becasue I had no clue what to say to him. I did pray for him. I also told my minister who said he would pray also. YOu judged people by "not responding." That is ridiculous.

Marke, you can't make people pray...nor should you try. If God is laying this guy on your heart, pray for him......don't focus on how many other people are.
