Do you think I'm asking you to accept anything?

No, you are just telling me stories.

It's not rocket science knowing the blind can't see.

Last time I checked blind faith is a virtue (i.e. blessed are those who believe but did not see...)

What are you concerned about anyone else for?

It has to do with some trying to sell me a story and then sending me to hell if I don't. Other than that I care about other people. I would expect a Christian to understand that. Then, again, maybe not.

Do you enjoy going around checking on who knows The Truth when you don't even know God.

Is that a "crime"? Do you believe everything people say? What does that have to do with "knowing" God?

I'd put that in the asinine category.

You would.

That was SCRIPTURE!

To you. And if it is, it will not be you passing the judgment whom the Lord knows and whom he doesn't. It would be his judgment to make, not yours.

[For two, even when I was a practicing Christian...] Two years a practicing Christian and you didn't know that Scripture.

Did I say for two years? I am afraid your reading comprehension is flawed.

Jesus told us what He will say to those who don't know Him

He didn't say they didn't know him. It's what they didn't do. Besides, he dind' say to which one of us he would say that. You are assuming it would be me but not you. Why? because you say "Lord, Lord?"

It's not blind faith for me - I KNOW God who I believe in. And those that don't know God are blinded by their 'own wants' - they NEED to see to believe or have another god. No virtue for anyone not knowing HIM!

It has to do with some trying to sell me a story .

You have it backwards. I'm not selling anything - I was bought with a price - I am saved and go directly to heaven. It's unsettling for some to hear but that's not my problem. I don't live by the dictates of 'man' but rejoice in the Words of my Savior.

and then sending me to hell if I don't

That's liberal speak, blaming others. Liberals don't want to be held accountable for the own decisions. They want what others have but won't do what other do that have it. In this world, we see that happening but not in HIS KINGDOM!! You read the words of Jesus. Those that didn't Know Him; He doesn't know either - they aren't HIS OWN.

Other than that I care about other people. I would expect a Christian to understand that Then, again, maybe not..

Jesus says 'His own' hear and obey. And His own will be with Him for eternity. I would expect a Christian to hear and obey HIS WORDS ALONE and UNDERSTAND that! And we know from His Word, many will not - since only a few enter the narrow gate. So obviously, even 'the religious' along with non believers - have a disobedience problem - they/man know better. Nothing new under the sun.

Is that a "crime"?

Is going to hell a crime?

Do you believe everything people say? What does that have to do with "knowing" God?

My beliefs don't come from 'man', so I could give a flip what people say. It has everything to do with 'knowing' God - because it is HIM I care to KNOW - where ALL TRUTH resides.

I'd put that in the asinine category.......You would.

You got that right! I have my priorities in order - JESUS/HIS WORD is #1.

That was SCRIPTURE! .......To you. And if it is, it will not be you passing the judgment whom the Lord knows and whom he doesn't. It would be his judgment to make, not yours.

So it's not SCRIPTURE to you? I'm not passing judgment - I'm passing HIS WORDS - Words that speak of judgment and apply to everyone! He DID NOT leave us NOT knowing. His disciples spoke of the judgment - you think anyone said 'you are judging me'. LOL! WHO is the JUDGE? HE already told us everything that applies to HIS KINGDOM. And one is - to KNOW Him through HIS WORD and have a relationship with HIM like He did with HIS Father. His own WANT to know HIM more and more and do so through HIS WORD, Who He is.

EARS closed, EYES closed - walk into the pit
HEAR and OBEY - walk on the narrow path to be with HIM here and for eternity.

It's ALL about JESUS - ONLY JESUS!!
