If you are upset with an individual and you torture and kill that person in your mind is that alright spiritually?

Unrepentant homosexuals upon death will go to hell. That is their end-- endless suffering and pain.

One of my favorite cousins growing up decided to embrace a lesbian lifestyle. She died unexpectedly in a motorcycle accident about a year ago.

As far as I know, her death was instant.
No time to repent!
No time to say, "GOD I'M SORRY!"
No time to call on the Name of the Only One who could save her, heal her, change her and give her the life that He intended her to live.

If she died an unrepentant sinner, my cousin is in hell!
If she died without repenting, she is in hell!!!

OH GOD please, have mercy on my cousin!
And as heartfelt as my prayer is, it's vain!!!!

NO HOPE FOR HER!
NO HOPE FOR MY COUSIN!
NO RELIEF!
SHE HAS BEEN BURNING, SUFFERING, WRITHING In AGONY WITH WORMS CRAWLING THROUGH HER AND PEOPLE CURSING GOD ALL AROUND HER FOR A LONG TIME!

And it has only been about a year!!!

If she is there now, she'll be there 10 years from now!!!

HOW SAD!!

INCOMPREHENDABLE!!

She's someone I knew personally! She was my favorite cousin!!

I tried to talk to her and she told me that I needed to embrace who I really was on the inside. I flatly rejected her insinuation and tried to help her see how bad a decision she was making-- how immoral her life was.

She told me that I didn't know for sure.
She told me that the Bible was written by men.

She was my favorite cousin growing up.
I love my cousin-- always will.

But I don't think she ever repented....


I tried to talk to her.
I prayed for her.
I was supposed to take her to a firing range to go target shooting about 2 weeks before her death-- BUT I DECIDED TO WORK OVERTIME INSTEAD!

I didn't know she was going to die so soon.
I didn't know she was going to die, not my cousin.
Not Jeanie.

It's just a phase and eventually, she'll come around.


She could tell the funniest stories! Her laughter made you laugh just because she was laughing. She owned her own business and was quite successful. There is a good chance that my cousin, the one who had such a infectious smile, is in hell.



If there is anyone struggling to overcome any sin, any sin at all, keep fighting! "Ride the altar to Heaven" if you must, but DON'T EMBRACE satan's desires as your own.

Don't embrace sin!
REJECT SIN!

REJECT IT!

Your flesh will lead you to hell, but it won't endure the flame with you.
Like a bad friend, your flesh will lead you to trouble and ultimately an eternity of suffering.

Ask GOD TO GIVE YOU A HATE FOR SIN!


As I was reading Psalms, I read that David "loved" the laws of God and hated every wicked way.

This post is for my benefit as much as it is for anyone else's!

HATE SIN!
HATE SIN!
HATE SIN!

and RUN TO JESUS and RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!!

Only Jesus Saves!

Re: Gay apostolics?

We all believe what we want to believe. Why anyone would want to believe in an evil God is beyond me. No thanks.

There is only One GOD! We can only approach HIM through The Way HE HAS ESTABLISHED!

GOD IS NOT EVIL!

He is just and true in ALL His ways.


Sinners choose destruction, it's God's will that all repent.
Unfortunately, many don't.



"I'm not following a God I can lead around
I can't tame this Deity
That's why Jesus is the final answer
To who I want my God to be
He's who (I want my God to be)


I'm not following a God that's imagined
Can't invent This deity
That's why Jesus is the final answer
To who I want my God to be
He's who I want my God to be."

Re: Gay apostolics?

Sorry, but nobody chooses their own destruction. That's one of the absurdities put forth by defenders of a "good" God that tortures billions of souls, forever.

"Nobody" should be qualified: nobody in their right mind, and with full disclosure -- knowing what will happen if they "choose destruction" as you put it, but really what you are referring to is people who choose not to believe the same way you do and following the instructions, for whatever reason.

There are truths in the Word of God and there are consequences for those who reject those truths.


Timmy,
What are we going to do TODAY to attempt to change the eternal destination of a soul who's on their own way to hell?

There are people, gay and straight, who wrestle with a variety of sins.

What will we do TODAY to help them overcome?
It's TOO LATE for my cousin, but I know folks for whom it is not too late.

ttyl.
