The storm has already struck. It is overhead,and its engulfing the whole earth.
Our spiritual fathers knew the kind of faith that is required in such an hour. David writes,Our fathers trusted in thee,they trusted,and thou dodst deliver them.They cried unto thee,and were delivered,they trusted in thee,and were not confounded PSALMS 22:4-5
Hast thou notKNOWN? Hast thou not heard,that the everlasting God,the Lord,the Creator of the ends of the earth,fainteth not,neither is weary. There is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint,and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.  Even the youths shal faint and be weary,and young men shall utterly fall,but they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength,they shall mount uo with wings as eagles,they shall run,and not be weary,and they shall walk,and not faint .  ISA.40:28-31.

"GOD IS LOVE"


If God is love then how the hell do you reconcile goudas version of smite and the obvious suffering of innocents that GOD would unleash on his people to purge his church of hypocrites and to hit the nations hard with YR's version of LOVE.

I honestly can't reconcile suffering of innocents (children) with "God is love". Innocents will surely suffer in goudas fantasy. If the Nations do fail financially it will NOT be at Gods hands(or for his purpose) it will be at mere mortals hands for their purpose. MANs greed. No more and no less.

Sorry, I cannot do it. God is not going to cause suffering amongst the most innocent(children) to prove a point. And if that is the case why not just strike down the evil ones? Something in this whole man made god stuff is very wrong.

I just hope, for all his hard work he doesn't find out...

 My reply--- Its not hard work for me at all, I have many ways of preaching to different kinds of people. Most of my preaching here is towards luke warm christians,and people that profess they know the Lord,but havent a clue who he really is,and have absolutely no respect for his written word. In other words they have never been born again. 
To my suprise though,most of the annamosity towards me is by other people here that say they are christains, but I learned to cope with things like that35 years ago.

If you want your ears tickled,Im not your type.

Gouda, you need to take a deep breath, and look in the mirror. Mark the tape; ANYONE or ANYTHING can quote scripture. What though is in your heart towards these? If it's not the absolute compassion of Christ then it's your own agenda in your own strength. Don't count their brazeness toward you as feather in your cap persecution; we don't even know what that looks like unless you're somewhere in Nigeria or the Sudan. Be careful you do not end up the resounding gong Paul speaks of, if you haven't already. Also, for your own good, go read Jude before you get your butt handed to you.

KJV Ezekiel Chapter 18

21 But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.

22 All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.

23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: [and] not that he should return from his ways, and live?

24 But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, [and] doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked [man] doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.

25 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; Is not my way equal? are not your ways unequal?

26 When a righteous [man] turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die.

27 Again, when the wicked [man] turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive.

28 Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die.

29 Yet saith the house of Israel, The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, are not my ways equal? are not your ways unequal?

30 Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn [yourselves] from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.

31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn [yourselves], and live ye.

What's your point?

I was replying to what GSD said: If God is love then how the hell do you reconcile goudas version of smite

GSD isn't going to listen to a word you say at this point, imo. Why not rethink your approach, unless of course, the object of it all isn't your concern for GSD, but your own resume.

I don't care if GSD is not going to listen, my point - that God is love but he will judge people according to their works.



Shtal.

IT IS BECAUSE YOU "DON'T CARE" WHETHER OR NOT GSD LISTENS THAT YOU HAVE NO BUSINESS OPENING YOUR MOUTH IN THE NAME OF THE ONE WHO SHED HIS BLOOD FOR HIM. I pity you.
