(August 25, 2013 at 5:18 am)old man Wrote: The Son of God came from His Father before anything was made. From the Father and the Son came their perfect and eternal love for each other. Their love is their endless joy in their pure and perfect caring, sharing and giving to each other all that they are and all that they care to create. The Son came from the Father and He naturally looks up to His Father, but without the Father's only eternal child there would be no possibility for an eternal God known as "love", "God is love", as Scripture clearly proclaims, and this love cannot exist with one person alone. This love, this God called love, needs at least two free thinking reasoning minds. Through the eternal Son the Father became the eternal giver of joy in perfect caring and sharing, and through the eternal Father His Son became the eternal receiver and giver of this same Spirit. Without the eternal Son there would be no such Spirit of pure and perfect eternal love; and it is this eternal Spirit that comes through the Father and the Son, and with the Father and the Son, all creation is governed. This Spirit naturally embraces all knowledge and wisdom and would mean nothing without being the heart or the innermost ruling character of a person. It is this Spirit who will live and rule in those of us who will value Him above all others. Father Son and Holy Spirit are dependent upon each other for being what they are. All three then must be equal in value. There's a reason they call you people sheep.
And there is a reason the sheep get fleeced.
Fuck. You guys don't get it. God is like an egg. An egg has a shell, a gooey part, and a yellow part. Three layers. The shell is to protect the egg.
One day you break it to cook it. Then it goes well with French toast. Which reminds me of orange juice. What was I getting at? Juice! Goes well with vodka. I agree with pocaracas. Cool story, bro (making same face as my avatar picture).
Pointing around: "Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, you're cool, fuck you, I'm out!"

In order to begin to see and understand the truth and the meaning of truth we must first be prepared to face up to the truth about ourselves. Do you agree with what I wrote concerning our mental state Brakeman or not? If not, can you tell me what the first sentence is that you cannot agree with and then explain why you disagree with it? Pride has the ability to convince a man he is better than he is when he compares himself to certain others. This pride allows him and causes him at times to regard those others with disrespect, even contempt. From such a mindset it becomes easy to dismiss the true word of others as being irrelevant, unimportant or untrue whenever their statements are seen to conflict with any of his own selfish or self-important desires and plans. Whilst his pride is in control it becomes easy for him to cheat on and lie to anyone who he does not care for, especially those who he assesses as being less important or inferior to himself. As much as he is ready to ignore the truth and deceive others for his own gain, so he becomes equally ready to ignore the truth and deceive himself into thinking how good and right he is. The half-truths and lies of others are then easily welcomed by him as absolute truth whenever they feed and reinforce his feeling of superiority and pleasure. For as much as his self first desires become his needs, so also does his cravings for more leave him more vulnerable and subject to the temptations and corruption of those most crafty and evil. Their lies become more easily accepted by him as truth and therefore become more easily woven into his memory as truth. From such lie infested memories are man's decisions and judgements too often formed. Whatever is being reasoned and perceived as truth and reality to all who have been corrupted by pride then is all too often an illusion. This state of mind is to some degree the inherited scourge of us all, breeding contempt and hatred for the truth along with paranoia, conflict, killing and destruction, just as the history of man will clearly testify.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
I see.....
So atheists, who think that humans are tiny insignificant specks in a vast uncaring universe are arrogant. While Christians who think that they are the favoured few of the creator of this universe are humble. Right, got it......
