Yes this could be true. You're heart is hardened against the Gospel.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why would my heart be hardened against the gospel? Because my great great granddaddy sinned?
Look at all your posts to me, I think your heart is maybe just a little bit hardened against the gospel.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, I must argue their is very much sign of forgiveness, the whole new testament is full of sinners who have been forgiven.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What about the OT? Did god change his attitude between the OT and the NT? Certainly looks that way...
No, there is a new covenant through Jesus Christ for all people both Jews and Gentile. God didn't change. In the old testament, God made a covenant through Abraham for the Jews, and God saved people then too.
"my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge,
my shield and the horn of my salvation.
He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior-
from violent men you save me." (2 Samuël 22:3)
"But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation."(Psalm 13:5)
"The LORD is my light and my salvation-
whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the stronghold of my life-
of whom shall I be afraid?" (Psalm 27:1)
However give me some quotes 'directly from god' pertaining to forgiveness and forgiving..
"Some men brought to him a paralytic, lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, 'Take heart, son; your sins are forgiven.' " (Matthew 9:2)
"This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. " (Matthew 26:28)

You CAN get that forgiveness, I have received it, my worries were gone
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wow, easy as that. Where do i sign up?
You do not sign up, God loves you and wants a personal relationship with you, however because you have sin in your life you cannot have this. God however has provided a solution for this, he sent Jesus Christ to die for the sin of all mankind. Your sins included, Jesus died for your sins on that cross. What you have to do is confess your sin, repent of them and ask for forgiveness, accept Jesus as your personal Savior, and give your life to Jesus.
a. Confess your sins
b. Repent of these sins and ask forgiveness
c. Accept Jesus Christ as your Personal Savior
d. Give your life to Jesus
Actually met a guy today, he gave his life to Christ (praise God), his sin is gone, he is saved, he is no longe yoked to sin.

and I urge you to ask forgiveness before it is too late.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I urge you not to involve me with your fantasy else i come over there and do some real sinning. Honestly it's like me saying: "I urge you to pray to the alien lord adkbfweb before it's too late and he sucks your eyeballs out with a metal straw". Why would i say that to you? Just because i believe it gives me no right to inflict it upon you.
No, it is not the same, (i believe the following by the way so don't post anything with where i got this from, check the bible
) God created the world, He created you and loves you, he has a plan for your life, all you need to do accept him, this is different from an alien that doesn't exist.

Yes, this is true.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So..... it's "worship jesus or go f*** yourself"? Can you show me where it says this?
No, it is accept Jesus, or suffer eternal separation from God.
quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I believe him dying on the cross while he was perfect is sacrifice
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is he dead? Answer the question. Is he any less perfect now?
No, of course he is not dead, he was raised on the third day, and no less perfect.
quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jesus was as human as you and me, the only difference was he was perfect,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He was perfect? Did you ever meet him back then? It's bizarre but i wonder how you draw your conclusions. There's like 1 small page between jesus being born and his able to preach. I wonder how much of the story of his life is left out. There's tiny, miniscule details of what jesus apparently did- you think you can just fill in the gaps with anything you want?
No, I didn't meet him back then, but I have met him, and know him personally. For
"Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God-- " (John 1:12)
No I cannot tell you what happened between his birth and his ministry other than what is already stated in the Bible, however Jesus was perfect and without sin.
"For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin." (Hebrews 4:15)
However you failed to answer my questions. You claimed god/jesus/holy spirit were one and the same. I asked for an explanation using text that showed they were separate. You failed to answer.
God the father : plans redemption Jesus Christ : procures it
"For he CHOSE us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will-- to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves." (Ephesians 1:4-6)
Spirit : applies it
"But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because from the beginning God chose you to be saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in the truth." (2 Thessalonians 2:13)
quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You have sin in your life
You cannot enter heaven with sin
You need God's forgiveness through Jesus Christ
Confess your sin and
Accept him as your personal Savior
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So all jews etc are going to hell? Thank fuck you turned out christian heh?
Anyone, who does not accept Jesus is God will suffer eternal separation from God.

No he was not there, this was to explain to you the whole water and blood thing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Explain what? Apparently jesus got stabbed with a spear and water leaked out with blood. You then said this is to show "Jesus died with a broken heart". this medical person analyses one line and says: "he got stabbed in the right lung yada yada yada". It's baseless assumption- pretty much the same as me saying he got stabbed in the bladder and leaked piss all over his shoes. Nobody has even proven he existed at all now all of a sudden some medical examiner has done an autopsy? Yeesh, i musta missed it.
You quoted this from the site i gave.
quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When
the soldier thrust a spear into Jesus' side, blood and water came
out indicating Jesus died with a broken heart.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then you commented this
Actually that more than likely indicates the spear penetrated his bladder and he leaked piss all over his shoes.
And i replied with the whole water and blood thing from a scientific point of view. Where the medical examiner was coming from was IF it did indeed happen how John said it did THEN this is the explanation, to show you that your comment was untrue.
