I don't understand why you impute "offense" when all I'm doing is correcting you on an obvious misstatement of fact. Are you always this defensive about your charity? Why is that?
I accepted your correction and then pointed out that not all the money was going to Christian organisations, what's wrong with that, just was making sure no one thought all that money went to Christian organisations. I know how people like to read things into a conversation around here.

Like I said above making sure others understood, some around here come into this place with blinders. I do not have to worry about my fate, Christ is my savior and I'm secure in this. if all I was worried about was my fate I certainly wouldn't be here.

You say you should, but how much do you actually do.

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.
