NOT man made disasters.

[Anna]

Like the oil spill, or who has been the president for the last four years ,but :

Hurricanes and earthquakes seem to be centering on places lately that are not what you would call,
Bastions of Righteousness .

Katrina : clearly exposed years of Democrat corruption in being prepared for such an event, after reciveing more years before that of funding in order to do so .

Haiti : a center for voodoo and satanic rituals, where the earthquake also exposed that area as being a center for money laundering used by many of the drug cartels in that region. Also exposed was the local corruption involved with millions of our tax payer dollars sent over there in the form of aid down through the years.

N. Japan : Although the earthquake Tsunami destroyed much of Northern Japan. What we were not told about on the other end of that stick was. That to the west the top secret submarine docks hidden along the Chinese coastline directly across the pond were also devastated. Setting that project back at least eight years in development .

Mexico City: Earthquake .  The home of most of that country's corruption and drug cartel elites. Need I say more.

Now we have Sandy: And look where she made landfall. Big cities require big hurricanes, of course this is tragic I'm not saying it isn't.But again look at what has been exposed by Sandy.Right in the places where it needed to be seen,where human misery is only equaled by the union greed. And just how
inadequate Obama really is as a leader of this country no matter how his media tries to spin that fact.
And GW didn't fair just a whole lot better during the last big one. But then it was the local government that was the problem,and not the unions that Obama loves so well.

California: Are you getting just a little nervious? Perhaps you should be! The clock out there is ticking, and what may happen to Kommiefornia could possibly become the grand finale of them all !

Bottom line, if you disrespect God and scoff in his face while bragging about your sins. Taunting yourself as some kind of a god called man. Thats far above anything that many of us believe in.
Then have you ever seen God get even ? If you haven't then you soon will, history bears this out as the truth. Just look at how many self imposed great ones have fallen before you ever came around.
And they fell very HARD ! Many times taking all those who also believed in them down with them.

And it comes down very fast, usually very lonely, and always very afraid. So much so you may end up putting a bullet through your head. Showing the coward you always were, to escape what's coming your way in this world. But that's where your troubles only begin.

 Good post !!

[Anna]

Makes all the sense in the world to me .

ATHEISM
The religious belief that in the beginning there was nothing, and nothing happened to nothing, until nothing exploded, and created everything. Then, the nothing that became everything magically rearranged itself out of inanimate matter, for no reason whatsoever, into complex, self-replicating single-celled life forms that later changed into trees and people … makes perfect sense.

[Swift One]

Ya, but who created god?  LOL, Just Joking. 

[Anna]

No one did, God is all things and always has been. So why don't you just go ask him 
He always answers me as long as im not getting out of line about something. But right now it might be a good idea to leave things like that alone. He is not in a real good mood right now to tolerate any nonsense. Even the animals and small children are sensing this, look around you something is different right now for sure.

Very well said!  Great post. 

[DDZ]

Yes very good post. I'm sure you will be labeled "one of those Christians" that are trying to impose your will and way of thinking on others.

[Anna]

Thank you guys, it was just something I was thinking of so I guess I wanted to put it into type.
I'm not trying to impose my way of thinking on anyone, if they don't like what I said there they certinanly don't have to read it. It doesn't matter one way or the other in that case im a firm believer
in free will. There are consequences for our actions no matter what you believe in or how someone lives their life. We of faith know things that perhaps others don't, or they simply wish to not hear it.

You can take a horse to water but you can't make it drink, but at least we did our part and tried.
Believers on the other hand know that they will have no excuse when the time comes,we have all had
experiences in our lives that have confirmed our faith. Others may not have interpreted an event or a situation the way that we see it as. To us there are no coincidences, things happen for a reason and
we know why. This is why we have been shown things that others can't explain no matter how hard they try. The explanation to us is simple and precise, sometimes even comporting and calming where to others it is chaotic and confusing.

All things being considered that at one point being equil, usually the simplest explanation is the one that is correct. Thus is life itself, in what it was intended to be by our Creator. Being a Christian never meant that you had to park your brain. On the contrary, but with knowledge also comes responsibility.

Down through the ages if we had concentrated more on helping one another instead of hurting each other, things might be a lot better today than they are now. There will always be evil until it is vanqused, and it will be vanqused. But we never should let it define who we are, or what we were to become like we are doing now.

In his image wasnt so much as a humanoid appearance, as it was with what's within us. And how we use that gift, that sets us apart from all other creatures. A soul, accountability, free will, and the understanding of atonement all go hand in hand as what we are.The use of that is up to each and everyone of us,no other human will be the one to judge any of us on how we did that.Free will,will be
what is judged at that time and how we used it in the course of our lives.

God did not want mind dead robots or YES men, he wanted us to come to him of our own accord .
That is the way he wants it to be,any other way would be what's the point in that ? Thank you

[Anna]

Not valid. Tornadoes, floods, tusnamis, landslides, broken dams, oil spill, avalanches, blizzards, forest fires....all hit salt of the earth folks, too...Like  Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, or whereever. What your supposition shows is there's alot of psychopathic people doing crapola all over the place.

.TM7

No, we all end up suffering as a people. Not just as individuals, look at what happened to Israel.
There were good Romans and Egyptions, in fact God blessed Egypt many times before he punished them also. Your entitaled to your opinions and your beliefs , if you don't like mine then don't read
them. For I am entitled to mine as well, and i wish you well with yours, I really hope they serve you well. But I will not stand here and fight with you about it. End of story. You can contact me through a PM if you wish to discuss it any further or what you feel my (supposition shows ) .

Yikes... sounds a little like... Pat Robertson! Except I think he blamed Katrina on gay men, didn't he?

And it comes down very fast, usually very lonely, and always very afraid. So much so you may end up putting a bullet through your head. Showing the coward you always were, to escape what's coming your way in this world. But that's where your troubles only begin.

How lewd.

[Casull]

I once read that of all the suffering caused by humans, only 2% is done by the criminal class.  The other 98% is caused by the 'respectable class'.

 
 
 
Well, I once read that there was a puppet named Pinocchio who was transformed into a real little boy.

[Anna]

Yes very good post. I'm sure you will be labeled "one of those Christians" that are trying to impose your will and way of thinking on others.

Well it is as you said . It may have taken them awhile but they finally migrated this direction in mass .
Sort of like lemmings , one turns and they all follow. Along with insinuations and baiting all designed
to silence, or get banned. Now, with the jokes and the references that have a sublimitable element of name calling.

I guess they get away with it, no opposing views or any support of those views was ever posted.
Just a knee jerk reaction and a dog pile by all the usual irk that do this. You all want a fight, well I'm not going to give it to you because that is only what you want, so you can make even more jokes and upset people. Everything is fixed, and you can't change it.

Some people liked it, you didn't. So what ! Am I supposed to care that you didn't ? That's your deal and no longer mine. If I'm wrong, then I guess we will all find that out on judgement day. Until then ive got plenty of time to spare. Try not to explain yourself or bait me, I'm not the one you have to
convince, you have nothing in this world that was not given to you. How you use that is your decision
not mine. But some how referring to puppets and lampooning a man who tries to enrich the lives of others through hard missionary work.

Doesn't seem like your using your talents wisely. In passing let me ask you this, before you allow
what you have said to cross your lips. Ask yourself, is this how you want to define your life ?

[Casull]

Anna, the reference to Pinocchio was not a shot at your post.  I found tm7's proclamation that your post was "Not valid" to be unsupported.  I was also a bit curious as to where he read the "2%" thing (some of his sources are a bit suspect  ).

[Anna]

Thank you Casull,your words seem to have the courage of your convictions.That was very kind of you
and your efforts are genuine.We all have our opinions about our faith, and I am sure theirs are not
without what they believe in. But it is foolish for any of us to judge each other including myself.
In the end none of that will matter anyway, only one thing will and that will be how we lived our lives.
For love not expressed is love lost forever, that always seems to be one of the last things the dieing
seem to realize before they pass on. After your stripped of everything, what else is there?
Like the old soldiers used to say. Under an artillery barrage while in a fox hole. There are no atheist.

[Dixie Dude]

Amen Anna.  Good post. 

[m-g Willy]

I don't believe 'every" disaster was from the hand of GOD.
Because GOD does send the rain on the good and the evil folks.
And I know that everyone will be judged for what and how they did in  life.
  I was told by a preacher that you can shake your fist in GOD's face ....until HE decides to stop it!
So some of these disasters may well have been a wake up call.
But the fool will not be able to see it.
 

[Anna]

We suffer as a people, and you may ask me why this is? But i am not the mouth piece of God !
Look inside yourselves and there is the answer to why we all suffer for the actions of a few .
It's a very simple answer, if you can't come up with it then think again. But I'm not going to be subjected to what I was before. Do I know the answer ? Of course I do and so should any one else.
Dixie dude , how y'all ? And thank you so very much for your kindly words .

You aint Southern, dont even go there. But they say my accent is a dead giveaway.

[Bob Riebe]

To say God is causing this, that or the other thing, is the stone-wall Job tried to crack open with a jeweler's hammer.
 God finally, verbally, ripped him a new butt-hole.

God allows, as he sees fit, especially he allows stupidity to have just rewards.

We are reaping what we have sown.

Read the Bible and it says the nasties always have been, are and will be, plus at some point it is going to  go horribly bad, period.
There is nothing new under the Sun.

[Anna]

And i know the plans that i have in store for you .

[Casull]

What's not suspect, but proven, is you never backing up your commentary with real sources and not just fantasy and stirring the stink.

 
 
Now that is funny (given most of your sources).  No, I don't back my thoughts up with zany, conspiracy site sources, but with logic and common sense (mostly).  Try it sometime, you might actually come to see the light.

[Anna]

Not trying to be insensitive to your belief system Anna, but wasn't the OT vengeful demiurge God made passe in the NT and by Jesus? Agree with one thing...I'm the one who has to do the diein when the time comes, so let me live my life the way I want to. (Hendrix)


I have but one thing to say! Tis better to burn out than to fade away!
Johnny Rotten , The sex pistols . Kurt Cobain said it also before he committed suicide.

Well they all got their wish shortly after they made these historic statements. ( Ask and thou shalt receive ). Be careful what you wish for, you might just get it.

[Troyboy]

Zealots come in all forms. Things just happen. Just as many good people suffer as those that deserve to suffer.

[Anna]

TM7 , I'm not impressed with either one of them lol. So I may have to agree with you on that one .
If the so called righteous do nothing about curbing their own sins, then they are just as much to fault
as the so called wicked. Remember when the Roman soldier came to Jesus and asked him for his help with his ailing daughter. And Jesus turned to his disciples and told them, that man had showed more faith than what they were. Case in point, awhile back I asked if anyone knew why it is that we all suffer as a people and not just as individuals.

No answers, but here is this man who apparently knows that answer. Yet we make the mistake including myself, of singling him out as one of the Romans. And so what if he is, he certainly just made a very good point about that sin among all of us is a double edged sword. Sometimes the reflection that we see in those who we perceive as being our enemy's, must surely be that of ourselves. 

[Anna]

TM7 , in all of this did anyone happen to think that perhaps my original intent in this thread was to show how we all suffer as a people ?  In my original post it was always about a people suffering and not just one or any political party was mentioned. I let people go on about what was thought I meant.
But midway through I asked the question, you see it isn't only progressives that can be good at baiting. But before that could it be that I was only answering or responding to subsequent post as to what perhaps some here were expecting me to say ?

As a Christian or even what they might think I am ? But I will say that in the end it was you who got the point, even if that was not what you intended.The responsibility of sin rest on all our shoulders.
The unwillingness to act in order to stop sin is as bad as the sin itself.Most of you answered your own
questions before you ever asked them of me. Or openly showed how you feel about this subject by using tomfoolery. All your choice, free will , but TM7 it was you who answered my question correctly.
For whatever reasons you did,God bless you .   


Gotta go to work, I have people waiting on me. Go VOTE , or don't complain.
 

[Anna]

TM7 , just give them plenty of rope. It's all within the context of three dimensional thinking, of which you have shown that you possess. Not the knee jerk reaction to is it black or is it white, but also the
common denominator of (why) it is in the first place.  Way to go dude, I'm impressed.
