If you say so

I have no power to do anything.

He who has ears to hear will hear. And in fact it is only God who can open the eyes and ears of the heart to the Truth of His Word

What is this thing you folk have with the misuse of capital letters?

Misuse sir? It is exactly what we have that you do not. A Holy Reverence to the things of GOD

Every cap is used to honor and give reverence to God and the things of God

It is the way that I write.

Pardon? The start of every sentence or paragraph is an act of religious devotion???

Are you well?

Is this what it comes to? If you can't accept the Message it is not a fault in yourself but a fault in the one who can and has?
There is nothing wrong with my eyes and ears and heart and mind sir.

I am very well

And if you can not believe when one tells you the truth about themselves, how is it even possible for you to believe when one comes speaking THE TRUTH of God

How do you question what I just told you about myself?

You know me better?

How is the inappropriate use of capital letters an act of devotion?

Aren't you just copying the excesses of others?

Because I told you how I use them.

Anyone who seeks to have the claim supported and doesnt believe it just because you say so.
if anyone were truly seeking they would have looked into it themselves. You know. To test those claims.

You want me to give you what I can't give you. And the only ONE who can, you refuse to go to

You hold the witnesses responsible for your lack of belief?


But you won't be able to

They told you
You just didn't believe their claim

No I haven't copied anyone. I did discover later however that some writers who knew God did this as well

If this is what you meant then sir. I think you already knew the answer as to why I capitalize throughout my sentences when

Do you believe everything other people claim, without a means to objectively verify what they claim?

You do recall me saying that a lot of the atheists here were once Christians, right?

I've tested the claims. The claims are full of unsubstantiated assertions and logical fallacies.

So now what? You say you can't give me good evidence to believe anything you're saying. And with every unsubstantiated claim and logical fallacy, you're showing to all the atheists that we have excellent reasons to be atheists.

So why continue knowing that you're doing more harm than good?

That post above was in response to someone who has an issue with my capitalizing certain words. I thought to explain my position but then thought better of it

Do I believe everything other people claim? No I don't. But if it is a claim that could result in my harm or wellbeing I think I would consider it important enough to look into it for myself

You tested God. That's what you did. And you wanted H to validate your immature "faith" based on your Lower carnal emotions and senses

Dependent on how you feel or don't feel it don't feel. What you see or don't see

I'm doing nothing but professing THE TRUTH

Those whom GOD has given ears to hear will hear. For HIS WORD will go out and will not return to HIM void but will accomplish HIS PURPOSE

I don't know who will hear and believe but HE does

And it is enough for the worker to go out and cast the seed knowing HE alone will bring the increase

Why is it that Christians think they can read minds? And why do that have such a spectacularly bad success rate, even to the point that it's worse than chance?

You said:

"if anyone were truly seeking they would have looked into it themselves. You know. To test those claims."

I did. And there's nothing there.

And I'll ask again, since you might have missed it...

So why continue knowing that you're doing more harm than good?

I don't hold back the WORD of TRUTH from anyone

I do not have the right to decide who will hear and believe nor do I have the right to judge anyone as too far gone and unable to hear and believe

HE knows to whom the WORD of GOD will come
