Rock Hudson Repented Before His Death

Paradise means garden. So, actually Jesus says I tell you today, you will be in the garden with me. What did Jesus mean by being in the garden?

No, you read what you wanted to see, and therefore this thread was created. God only knows???? Bro, are you in a mystery religion? God isn't a Greek deity looking to move us around a chess board. Not a Hindu god wanting to up the ante at the slightest whim. No, He taught His people, He allows them to know what is going on so they could prepare themselves.

As the tree falls there shall it lie. Sorry, but people need to repent when the call goes forth. Let's see Jeffrey Dahmer repents becomes Christian? Then is stabbed to death? Hitler repents before his death? The list is long and gross. Bro, how ungodly are we willing to paint this unrighteous picture of God to a sinner world? Who look at Christians and want to punch their lights out because they represent Jesus Christ so badly. Child molester cuts head off of a young Adam Walsh and repents on his death bed? Isn't that enough to make you blow your lunch.

Just get in line bro, there is tons of doctrine which people just don't agree with. So, get in line.

Well, well, maybe you should start posting some of those scripture.

Oh, so those are your conditions for Him? So, if He doesn't do it YOUR touchy feely way, then He is some joker false prophet? Wow.

More conditions for Jesus to meet your criteria of what can pass your religious litmus test. If Jesus doesn't do X,Y, or Z He isn't the God for me?

Sorry, but people are supposed to change with CONVERSION, hence the word's meaning. Not remain the same so to show the world that being a Christian is just another way to label a hypocrite.

The religious elite Jesus came to first, and went to those who were raised in their religion, believed in their religion, but weren't part of the Israeli cast system. He was accused of eating with publicans and sinners, but if you want to fly that up the flag pole you also would have to say that He was a drunken over eater, Matthew 11:19.

No deathbed salvation.

Today is the day of repentance 2 Corinthians 6:2.

Choose you this day who you will serve Joshua 24:15.
