Thank God for showing me a vision of a Casket and then Hell. Exactly where i was headed before he used that fear to save me.
God Bless

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I have been there and read your sermons, that is why I am a bit perplexed. Your sermons about love are right on yet at times, your zeal towards certain subjects speak something else.
For each of us who has entered into the understanding of salvation, God had shown us each in a way we could understand. Perhaps some He does make real the life and death, heaven and hell. For others it is another way or thing. For me it was different. I knew my life was full of sin. I knew I was on my way to hell. I already understood life and death, heaven and hell due to the various areas of spirituallity I "played" within before giving my life over to Him. I came into the understanding of death and hell due to affliation with satanists and satanism. Learning the reality of Satan also brought me into the understanding of the reality of God. I have seen how Satan uses those who have chosen to be obedient to him. He uses them and them lets them die because he hates them. Satan rules with fear, fear of not being obedient to him.
God, on the other hand is a God of love. He cares for us more than we will ever know until we stand before Him. He desires more than anything for us to love Him of our own freewill. He wants us to purpose, not by simple obedience, just doing to do, but of reverence and honor, ministering to Him.
JimB,
Its not an M-16, its an M-66! LOL!!I know it is fiction and that it presents an aspect of fear but when it comes to entering into His presence we are not to be in fear but we are to enter in with boldness, as though we have the right to do so. There is no fear in boldness.
