How many times have you been asked to post something explaining it? Why not point out what this "anti-Semitic" site gets wrong instead?

Well BB, aside from a bunch of worthless rituals and ceremonies, this cult is a religion of salvation by works. Once I know that, I pretty much stop listening. I don't care whatever else they might have right, if they don't have the plan of salvation right.
They are not putting their eternal souls in danger, as in the future. They are in danger RIGHT NOW. As rdmd1 stated previously, there is no middle ground where Jesus Christ is concerned. One either accepts Him as savior, or one rejects Him, and riding the fence, is rejecting Him. People can either accept Him today, as savior, or face Him later as judge. Rumor has it, He won't be much in a forgiving mood as their judge. That, however, is on them. 😇

I agree. We can obediently proclaim the good news but we can't make someone believe it. It is the Holy Spirit who will open eyes and hearts for those who diligently seek to know the truth. I also firmly believe we can pray for those who we come across in our lives (real world and the online one) that their hearts will be softened and eager to seek to know the Lord because God says He is a rewarder of those who seek Him diligently and will be found when we search for Him with all our hearts. I don't believe God wants people to go to hell - He loves us all - but He won't make someone believe who doesn't want to. Jesus expressed this grief when he said:

    O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! (Matt. 23:37)

I thank the Lord every single day for His blessings, His salvation, His grace and for showing me the way of righteousness. I know it is not something I deserved!

BTW...I was talking to a guy a few weeks ago and he was saying how much he loved living in the Philippines. He said he would love to go back and could see living there the rest of his life were it not for the family he still has here. He also talked about the current president and how he has given the people permission to kill anyone they see selling drugs and other crimes???!!! Is that true?
