That’s a cheep shot, Friend with an (F)not an(f)

thought I would ((leave)) my email (sorry--That’s the kind of thing that happens at midnight )
II Corinthians 13:5 tells us to "test" our faith --but does not tell us the test.
the Bible gives 6 or 7 differences between a believer and an unbeliever. see Romans 8:5-16 a different mind, a different will, a different power over sin, a different leading --(I cor 2:12, 14 from the word of God, hebrews 12:8 from discipline, Matthew 21:21 from the Holy Spirit in prayer) a different sense of adoption (knowing that you know God)
i believe we are unfair to new members of our church or faith if someone of the same gender does not walk them through these changes and enable them to biblically examine their faith.
I've seen long term members of the xtian culture get saved after such an examination. sometimes it takes 20 minutes to walk someone through this --sometimes 20 weeks.
faith and grace to you
---you claim to follow Jesus, the Prince of Peace, but support war---
Yeah, and if things were your way the whole world be speaking German and the Jews would be wiped off the earth. No one ever asks for war and no one likes war. War is hell, but some times they just have to be fought. No one ever said it is pretty. Some times greater evil comes by sitting here and doing nothing about it.
‘All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing’
