  1. Hey,

     

    You are wrong about me and clearly your last message on the thread was about me. If you do not want someone here who isn't LDS fine but don't pretend you're inclusive. I will pray that the Lord can provide you with better judgement and a more hospitable spirit to those who do not believe everything you believe. If I were to have behaved like you I would be ashamed of myself. I say this to you so in the future you will behave differently to other Christians and try to treat them with a Christ like love. I know that will be hard for you as you are clearly anti anyone who isn't LDS, but look to Jesus and he will change your heart. I hope God will have mercy on you. You have my forgiveness for your behavior. Now go in peace

  2. I was never a Jerk towards you I have extended Christ like love and concern towards you. I think you are suffering and I pray you will be relieved from that suffering. I would also recommend you seek help for your mental health. I won't respond to you further as it is wrong to feed one who is ill with their poison. I do hope you seek professional help too. God bless
  3. Please don't Jesus is my high priest and he is in Heaven not in Buildings made by human hands. That is where my treasures are stored in heaven.
  4. You have no desire to have a discussion with me you have made that clear a few times. I wish you peace and I hope you come to know that you don't have to be antagonizing as a person. Jesus loves you, find your identity in Christ and you won't feel the need to behave this way towards your fellow man. God bless. Go in peace
  5. Brother go in peace. If you would like I can send you the prayer I have said for you and you can say it for yourself? I will say it again for you too.
  6. I don't know how you came to this conclusion. I will always sin yes. That does not mean I sin and think oh well. Do you believe you are under God's Law? Do you love God and love your Neighbor ? Are you aware of how the Lord Jesus fulfilled the Law of Moses? There is so much in the bible to encourage us to do better. Matthew 25 verse 40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. I wake up every day and try to love my neighbor more and try to love God more. I don't wake up with the mindset of I'm going to sin less today. But by loving my neighbor more and God more I will naturally sin less. That is the entirety of the law brother.
  7. I will only respond to you with a Christ like love. May you be in peace brother. I will continue to pray for you to be comforted.
  8. I understand I just wish to encourage you to not be fearful of telling people you're a sinner. Lots of times the Devil makes Christians seem perfect to non believers and we play along with it, but that isn't right it's important people know we are just sinners with a hope in Jesus Christ. I went to a revival in Oklahoma last year and I took my friend with me who wasn't a believer and at the end the preacher said come up and tell me what you want from God. My friend went up and said " I want to be like Abram". I was like no you don't want to be like me I'm a sinner, you want to be like Jesus. Sometimes people close to us think we are perfect and that's why God chose us and it is our job to tell them that we are sinners just like them the only difference is our faith in Christ.
  9. I think if the Words of Paul the Apostle have an impact on you then I urge you to step out of you cultural norms and refer to yourself as a sinner. I'm sure it will encourage someone a friend or a family member, who just needed to hear a fellow believer identify as a sinner saved by grace. Especially, if in your culture it is rare I bet there is someone around dying to hear it!
  10. I think we get it from the Apostle Paul . I guess it just depends on people, personally when Christians I admire remind me they are a sinner it's encouraging and when I remind myself that Paul reffered to himself as the chief of sinners if encourages me. If Paul's words do not have that impact on you then I understand.
  11. What did I misunderstand? I literally just said you don't like to refer to yourself as a sinner which is fine . I think that when the Apostle Paul refers to himself as the chief of sinners in 1 Timothy 1 15, it's incredible and so encouraging to me. That I am more than happy to refer to myself as a sinner, if it will encourage other and besides it encourages me. If you don't want to that is fine I'm not saying everyone has to wear a t-shirt saying I'm a sinner saved by grace. But it sounds like we agree that we are all sinners
  12. You misunderstood me, I have overcome the wages of sin which is death through my faith in Jesus Christ. However, I still sin because I'm a fallen person same as you. Every night when I go to bed I acknowledge that I did not Love God properly today and I did not Love my neighbor with a Christ like love today. Yet in the morning I wake up with thanksgiving in my heart because I am saved and as it says in Lamentations 3 22 It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. 23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. Every day is a clean slate with the L9rd when you are saved and are trying to be better. Do you know the story of Jesus and the Fig Tree in Matthew? I don't want to be like that Fig Tree that Jesus destroys I want to bare fruit in my life that pleases the Lord. Will I do that some days? Yes. Some days I won't because I'm not perfect and in this life I never will be, but I want to live God's Law the best I can.
  13. I have received mixed messages haha. The impression I get from you is that you don't believe you are above God's Law and you don't choose to identify as a sinner. For whatever reason
  14. Ma'am I think that being honest about being a sinner is not shameful. 1 Timothy 1: 15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. Paul was encouraging us and we should do the same with ourselves by acknowledging we are sinners and the same to others by saying we are sinners. The good news is it works both ways. I used to have a top that said "God loves everyone but I am his favorite" and on the back it said "So are you". You are God's favorite as am I and so it that guy Vort who is antagonizing me. We can say we are sinners and we are saved and we are God's favorite all at once I'm doing okay thank you. Time is a great healer and so is Christ
  15. I have already overcome sin through my faith in Christ. Johm 8 : 34 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin. 35 Now a slave has no permanent place in the family, but a son belongs to it forever. 36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. The curse of sin has no power over me, the Lord Jesus set me free. Hallelujah! That doesn't mean I am not a sinner. I will always sin. Hmm, I don't think you have anywhere the grasping of protestant belief you are claiming to have. We celebrate the atonement (his death) and the victory over the grave ( his resurectiton). We believe he is alive today. Of course I celebrate his sacrifice if Christ hadn't of died I'd be going to Hell and if he wasn't resurrected is be going to Hell. So yes I celebrate Christ's death. As long as I am a sinner I do want to be convicted of my sin. And I pray God will be merciful to me and always convict me of my sin. Lest I fall short in the latter days.
  16. Yeah callimg all Baptists defeatests because we feel convicted of our sin (which is the first step to repentance) constitutes as a great answer 😂
  17. To be clear. Do you believe that is achievable to be perfect in this life? For sure I believe in heaven I wont sin. Although, on Earth I always sin.
  18. It depends on how you look at God's Law God gave me his Law to show me my need for a Saviour. God didn't give me the Law to condemn me to Hell. Me admiting my sin isn't defeatest, because sin will destroy you. Me being convicted of my sin is a Mercy from God if I had no conviction of my sin then I would not be saved. So if me admitting I am a sinner makes me a defeatest to you then hallelujah, I always want to be convicted of my sin. Hmm, it doesn't sound to me like you know the Baptist point of view at all, which is fine you're not a Baptist. I do believe in perseverance of the saints by the way.
