I have helped lead many people to the Lord Jesus Christ. Two of them are now pastors. One of them is my cusin and his church is running around 2,500. The other is head pastor of a Baptist church here in the Sacramento area. His church is around 700-900 people. I have helped bring others to the Lord who went on to be evangelists.

Strange that I've touched so many people for Christ and have helped many through serious trials; YET, according to you I am a "bloody, ugly SATAN.".

SATAN is the father of lies -- you should understand if few people believe your claims.

Your accusation has no merit. It has only anger in its teeth. I am sorry that you don't see Capital Punishment the way I see it; however, calling me a "bloody, ugly SATAN." is wrong and not doing any one any good.

Suomipoika, can you please go and tell all the people I have led to the Lord, and are serving Him faithfully that I am a "bloody, ugly SATAN.". Please go tell them that you believe that they were brought to faith in Christ Jesus by a demon. Please specify that it was a "bloody, ugly SATAN.", that prayed with them and preached to them and brought them to the Lord.

Sola Gratia.
And yet you say that other sinners who became pastors and evangelists should have not have got this chance in the first place, but should have been executed. You are a liar and a deceiver. If there was one primary way in which the devil - the deceiver, the liar - would attempt to deceive conservative Christians, it would be exactly the way in which you are speaking in your posts. You try to write in an "innocent tone" and make it sound like the people who stand up against you are the bad ones. Yet, it is the prince of death and darkness manifesting in your ideas, no matter in what kind of guise it would try to veil them.

For God's sake, I personally know people, Christians, who should have been hung to death in your "nation".

I'm sorry, I have to point out this, but Tulc happens to be one of the nicest guys on here. I'm sure he was being sarcastic, he often attacks SOF's and other fundies' posts in a very smart and witty manner.

He hangs out on the Liberal board in Congregations sections, and he is officially one of the coolest Christians ever. Read some of his older posts.

Yikes, sorry! My post was in two parts. The part starting with "Shield" was addressed to ShieldOfFaith. I was typing quickly and then signed off, I should have edited it to make it clearer.

To tulc: I was indicating my sig to you in response do your posts. i do like your posts. really :)

To ShieldOfFaith: Shield's Law, read my sig, boo troll etc.

satan does not come as a red devil with tail, horns and pitchfork, but as a solemn and sincere helper, wanting to save those who are in trouble. when the anti-christ comes, he will build the largest church on earth, won't he? the most solid block of sychophants on the planet, all convinced of the holiness of his leadership. if these people believe as you do, then these are large churches serving evil and hatred and retribution. congratulations. you are paving the wide road for the masses. simplistic answers are always appealing. the narrow road of love and forgiveness in the face of sinful activity is a far greater challenge than to smite those that one finds disagreable. i need no god to tell me to hate, to strike out, to fight, to kill, to be vengeful. these traits are what i am asked by Christ to overcome. what a far greater challenge He lies before me than any you can begin to imagine. anyone can follow a god that asks them to worship the worst part of themselves. it is my God that asks me to pursue a love that is unknown to me. a love that is foolish, unrequited, undeserved, indiscriminate and even fatal. i am called to that kind of love. you are called by a god that cozies up to the worst of you, the prideful you, the vengeful you, the you of hubris, of self-righteousness. i need no god for that. i am human. i was born with that. i need a Savior to deliver me from what you worship. i long for you to meet Him.

You have a huge problem; I never claimed any of these things. I only claimed to have MESSIAH make me born again!!! And then I claimed to preach the Word!!!

Opps! You are hosed again.

GOD and I are already in agreement. HE has ALREADY declared Capital Punishment to be good and holy. So we are already in agreement.

Once again you are hosed.

Suom, I have to admit that out of all the people here on this board, you have been the biggest disappointment of all. :sigh:

I used to look forward to reading your posts. I used to think that you had a fairly level head about you. You used to think things through before you posted: Now...?

I know you disdain me. I know that my very presence on this earth angers you. I know that you wish that GOD would take me off the earth. I get it.

But man, it just surprises me that's all. You used to be cool, now you just are going into some kind of Stalinist rants about vomiting blood, and demons....

I don't know what happened; but it aint good. You lost your cool bro, and that saddens me.

You know that I don't care 1 iota what the heathen think about me. You know that. However, when I see a brother in the Lord going off on me like you; it makes me sad. You are flying off the handle for a doctrine like Capital Punishment. It's .... :scratch:

Oh well, I can't please all the people all the time. But I would advise you to be careful about what you call me. Only because I am a true born again believer in Messiah Yeshua. I don't mind you calling me dull/ slow/ dim witted, ect.. However, for your sake be careful with the prince of darkness references. The LORD does not want His servants lobing bombs like that at each other. Especially over a side doctrine like Capital Punishment.

This is not the Nature of GOD. Or the holy Trinity. Or the Divinity of Christ. This is only a political type of doctrine. It has NO eternal spiritual significance. It has nothing to do with Salvation. Nothing what so ever.

For you sake and mine, maybe you should just lay off this thread. If it causes you that much heart burn, just lay off it brother (and YES I called you brother. I believe that you are a Christian and therefore the title of brother. We are not friends; you made that clear. But you are my brother in the Lord. LIKE IT OR NOT.).

Suomipoika,

May the LORD bless thee, and keep thee,

The LORD make His face to shine upon thee. And be gracious unto thee.

The LORD lift up, His countenance upon thee, and grant thee peace.

In His love,

Shield Of Faith.

Something to keep in mind. It goes both ways.


Edit - you're pretty awesome though since you sent me 50 blessings when I'm a heathen. LOL.

You know, Shield -- I tried reason; I thought we really could sit down and figure things out. But you weren't interested in that, were you? The only people you respond to are the ones you can insult and/or claim superiority to. Any attempt at rational discussion makes you more hysterical than the sight of two men holding hands.

So, I'm sorry to say, my first impulse was right about you.

I don't care if you claim to have mud-wrestled for Jesus - the point of that verse is, it is entirely possible to be "doing the Lord's work" and be entirely WRONG.

Stop hiding behind literalism (oh wait, that's right, you're not, as you're not endorsing OT law in its entirety - you're as big a cherry-picker as they come).

Especially over a side doctrine like Capital Punishment.


If it's not a big deal, why have you spent the last (nearly 2000 posts now) justifying what seems to be the central theme of your Nazi state?

What are you going to do, SoF? Execute him? The Lord also doesn't want ANY of his human beings killing each other.

This is not the Nature of GOD. Or the holy Trinity. Or the Divinity of Christ. This is only a political type of doctrine. It has NO eternal spiritual significance. It has nothing to do with Salvation. Nothing what so ever.


Let me know how that one goes when you die, SoF. Jesus will probably be wanting a word with you.

Of course this is where you are wrong. Killing is different than murder. That is why HE SAYS TO KILL A murderer via Capital Punishment.

How about you answer Suomi's question about repentance? There is no repentance, no reprieve, in your Nazi state.

Answer the question, stop being so bloody full of yourself, or pictures of bunnies will begin to be posted, because this thread is about 1800 posts too old and deserves to be treated like the shipment of fail that it is.

I have never been opposed to rational discussion. We just got side tracked that's all.

SOLI DEO GLORIA.

Consider what it was that you let sidetrack you.

Gut instinct aside, then, I would like to point out a few things:

It is true that God does authorize capital punishment -- in the spirit of honesty, we have to concede that the vast majority of killings (both by government and private individuals) in the Bible are either performed by God himself, ordered by Him, or blessed by Him after the fact. So it would be quite hypocritical of Him to turn around and say "Killing is wrong" as an absolute truth.

That being said, you are correct in that your C.S.A. would not be violating any Biblical sanctions by executing convicted criminals.

(A lesser man would cut me off here and quote-mine me -- perhaps you're a better man than that after all)

However -- God has also given explicit instructions as to who must be put to death in a Nation under His protection -- and you've already stated, for the record, that you would not follow those instructions -- not all of them, anyway.

ShieldOFaith said:
HERE ARE THINGS YOU'D NOT BE HUNG FOR:

1. Eating shell fish.

2. Being a communist. If you preached it you'd be banished.

3. Gangster rap. You may be imprisoned, but you would not be hung for that.

4. Working on the Sabbath. You would probably be rebuked, but you would not be hung for that.

5. Wearing two different types of clothing (cotton and polyester.). You might look weird, but you won't get hung for that.



That's right, Shield -- you've gone on the record saying you would disobey God. The fact that you'd only disobey Him a little isn't going to matter.

You've said that the USA is due for a divine smackdown for straying away from God's laws -- is your own C.S.A. any different now?

It seems to me that doing what God wants, but not how He wants it done, is not going to impress Him very much. You want to execute people in you country? Fine, go ahead; your country, your rules -- but be a man and admit that it's not because God tells you to; it's because you want these people dead.

But not to worry. SoF's vision of God (whom the rest of us refer to as "Satan") will no doubt find "abler men"...

Sacramento, eh? I've lived in Redding, Chico, and now I'm moving to Quincy. Where in Sac?
