I am going to rise about and not take anything any of you said personally, for many are really unable to read the words I wrote them mainly from the Bible, can’t even drink from the Bible which so many here claim to love so much.

I have been called so many names it hard to keep tack, my words have been twisted.

I pray you learn someday that the Qualities of Jesus and those who truly follow him would never put on such a display.

There is no darkness in Jesus nor could he behave as some have behaved here.

The first time Jesus came many thought he was going to be their warrior and were so disappointed that that was not his mission.

Sadly for some are unable to receive the Kind loving Jesus.

John 14
30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

Jesus said he hath nothing in me

The prince of this world has no light in him or as stated in the things that the children of Jesus allow him to edify them Gal. 5:22; or even 1 Cor. 13

I’m trying to be like Jesus;

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_L2f07XlidALyrics:

1. I’m trying to be like Jesus;
I’m following in his ways.
I’m trying to love as he did, in all that I do and say.
At times I am tempted to make a wrong choice,
But I try to listen as the still small voice whispers,

Chorus
“Love one another as Jesus loves you.
Try to show kindness in all that you do.
Be gentle and loving in deed and in thought,
For these are the things Jesus taught.”

2. I’m trying to love my neighbor;
I’m learning to serve my friends.
I watch for the day of gladness when Jesus will come again.
I try to remember the lessons he taught.
Then the Holy Spirit enters into my thoughts, saying:

1 John 4:12

12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

[CynicalBear]

You mean like this Jesus?

Matthew 23:33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

Matthew 12:34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

You're right. The REAL Jesus wouldn't cast aspersions upon the Scriptures like YOU did less than three hours (see post #445) after posting this comment...and like DouglasKC did less than 45 minutes (see post #424) after you posted this comment.

You see the Jesus of the New Testament cited the Old Testament about 78 times.

He constantly undergirded its authority by saying, "It is written..."

He said:

Luke 24:25: "O fools, and slow of heart to believe ALL that the prophets have spoken."
And not even a fresh vision from God would trump Moses & the prophets: Luke 16:29: [Jesus said] “Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them."

Likewise, we cannot discount Jesus' words:
Luke 9:26: Whosoever shall be ashamed of me AND MY WORDS, of him shall the son of man be ashamed."
Acts 20:35: "Remember the words of the Lord Jesus"

If I were a MORMON like you; I'd avoid any mention of the OTHER 'scriptures' of Mormonism; too!
