Your purpose BL?

[BillyMack]

If what you teach/preach is true, then why do you do what you do?

What's the point of rebuking someone that God has not "chosen" to be saved? If they're not already "chosen" He's not going to. So, what is your purpose? What are you trying to accomplish? Put yourself on a pedastal? Exhault yourself above others?

I do not understand your purpose. [&:] Why preach to someone who has no chance at Salvation? Why tell them of His love if they can't partake of it? Are you just trying to rub some noses here or what?

What is your purpose?

Hmm, good question. Lets see how he explains this. Also, I am still waiting for the John 3:16 explaination. He can't dance around that forever.

I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry

[BillyMack]

All that is void if everyone is already chosen. What would be the point then?

Surely if God wants something done, He would have a reason. Again, if what you say is true, there's no point in preaching/teaching to anyone.

Billy, again, I ask you to comment on the following Scriptures, one at a time. Is your "faith" strong enough Billy, or must you have your pastor speak for you.

And Bl your silence as well as your avoidance is even more telling. I have benn leaving you these questions since last night, and now Billy is asking you the same thing, and you will answer no one.

WHY?

ORIGINAL: BLsig

I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry

Bill, that doesn't answer the question at all.

[MichaelT.]

Matthew 12:

33"œA tree is identified by its fruit. If a tree is good, its fruit will be good. If a tree is bad, its fruit will be bad. 34You brood of snakes! How could evil men like you speak what is good and right? For whatever is in your heart determines what you say. 35A good person produces good things from the treasury of a good heart, and an evil person produces evil things from the treasury of an evil heart. 36And I tell you this, you must give an account on judgment day for every idle word you speak. 37The words you say will either acquit you or condemn you."�

BL, what words have been coming out of your mouth. What good works can be seen from your time here on HNI. You have used your callous ways to preach at people, and you are prideful that you feel pushed out by others here. You stand up and say look at what I have done, then at how I have been treated. But God says that if you come in His name, you should be producing good works. How have your words made a difference for the better here.

How can you call Gods Children satan , or demons. For out of the mouth cometh the overflow of the heart.
