"Finally, my brothers, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, and against spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your waist girded with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, having your feet fitted with the readiness of the gospel of peace, and above all, taking the shield of faith, with which you will be able to extinguish all the fiery arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Pray in the Spirit always with all kinds of prayer and supplication. To that end be alert with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints" (Eph. 6:10-18)

You didn't 'outline' my stance... you misrepresented it... yet again.
So I will clarify... yet again.
I do not, and will not, respect [b]YOUR BELIEFS or the method [hidden] [blind faith] [/hidden] by which
you form your beliefs.
And I will not respect them because they are wrong, irrational, harmful, and even dangerous.

I think persecution has become a misused word in this forum however there are some interesting behaviours exhibited.
It seems some people find this forum a place of persecution, I think it's ok here and I certainly wouldn't call the arguments that occur here "persecution" as I know the JWs like to.

People say "I AM a Christian", "I AM a BELIEVER", "I HAVE BEEN REBORN",
"THIS is who I AM"....
Not too many people say "I AM a person who believes in evolution".
It's why so many theists get it wrong, and try to work out how to build a

it is you build up a moral system, o ...[text shortened]... way mean or guarantee

Diversity doesn't have to lead to conflict, but you'll find it difficult to find
humans that are not in it one way or another. There is either infighting,

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyRegardless of what your ideology of "eternal separation from God" just so happens to be or what RJHinds' ideology happens to be, the question here is do you agree or disagree with RJHinds' assertion that divegeester is "deserving of Hell"? RJHinds has stated his opinion of divegeester; can you not bring yourself to state unequivocally whether you agree with it or disagree with it? Do you think divegeester is "deserving of Hell"?

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyI find your inability to disagree with Hinds, further revelation of your pinholed and misanthropic mind-set which underpins a somewhat condenmatory spiritual platform. Quoting scripture from your right hand while holding the flamethrower of hell in the other is not an endearing image."Finally, my brothers, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.

Originally posted by divegeesterWell, it is not my fault that you refuse to believe it. Blame yourself.
You infamously told me that even though I am a Christian, I "deserved to go to burn in hell" because I did not agree with you about the doctrine of eternal suffering in hell which you believe is a teaching of Jesus Christ.
