Nevertheless the hour is coming , and it is now, when the true worshippers will worship the Father with spirit and truth , for indeed the Father is looking for such like ones to worship him...John 4 [23]

Are you still harrassing your sister?

John 5:24 'I tell you the truth: He who hears what I say and believes in the One that sent me will have age-long life… he won't have to be judged, for he has come out of the death and into the life!'

Love is long suffering and kind

Love is not jealous , it does not brag , does not get puffed up , does not behave indecently , does not look for its own interests , does not become provoked, does not keep an account of injury..." 1 Cor 13 [4]

2Peter 3:17 So, to you, my loved ones; Since you've been warned, be careful that you aren't led astray by the bad things that these lawless people are doing and then lose your grip on your firm convictions. 18 Rather, keep growing in the loving care and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Anointed One. May he be glorified now and into that age-long Day.

You can wonder about what anyone else does, but in the end it gets down to your own personal integrity to God, and what you do,

The best you can do for another is 1 Corinthians 14 [3-4]

"However he that prophesies [speaks Gods sacred pronouncements] upbuilds and encourages and cosoles men , by his speech "

[4]....indeed he who prophesies is greater then he that speaks in a tongue."

The reason I asked that was it's VERY clear that people in here DONT..!!!!

Galatians 5:15
But if you bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another.

Galatians 5:17
For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please.

Galatians 5:26
Let us not become boastful, challenging one another, envying one another.

Titus 3:3
For we also once were foolish ourselves, disobedient, deceived, enslaved to various lusts and pleasures, spending our life in malice and envy, hateful, hating one another.

Hebrews 3:13
But encourage one another day after day, as long as it is still called "Today," so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

I understand it's very difficute to apply EVERY scrupture with the very thought of Satan so close to us now he and his demons are he with us, as Rev say "woe to the earth as the devil as come down to you with great anger"
But to use the those words "I'm not perfect" is such a cop out I think...
I don't know enough on the bible to really comment, so maybe I should either read it or shut up haha

not at all, I think that was very humble of you, we are all on a journey, and interest in Gods word and wanting to get to know him is a wonderful start, we all are imperfect and God remembers we are only dust, but if we use that excuse for deliberatly disobeying him, then the journey hasn't begun.

So this is where you people congregate to encourage each other? Wow!! You left Jehovah to get encouragement from a web site?

And here you are, right among us.:)

And by the way, who left Jehovah, wasnt me, I still have him with me each and every day. You, the GB aka F&DS nor anyone else can take him from me.:)

Ezekiel 34:20-21: "‘Therefore this is what the
Sovereign LORD says to them: See, I myself
will judge between the fat sheep and the lean
sheep. Because you shove with flank and
shoulder, butting all the weak sheep with your
horns until you have driven them away...

I don't consider EE my sister.. She does nothing to identify herself as a worshiper of GOD.. Except to claim to be a member of the JW's.. One would think that you might at least try doing more then paying lip service.. TO the God .that you claim to worship.. has she ever tried to insite others to show the love God has told us to have??? NOT... on here..

The excuse wears thin .. when we may not be perfect.. But many aren't even trying.. to be decent..

Note to ourselves:

If you find yourself in a negative situation with someone in your life or that crosses your path, stop and take a few minutes to feel love within your heart for that person, and then send it out into the Universe.

Just doing this one thing helps to remove any resentment, anger, or negativity towards that person who is deliberately trying to anger you.

Remember that feeling resentment, anger, or any negative emotion attracts it back to you. Feeling love attracts love back to you. What you are feeling for another, you are bringing to you.

As for the negativity shown by those claiming to be "in the truth"...their intentions and motives speak for their form of worship.

Galatians 5:14 The entire law is summed up in a single command: "Love your neighbor as yourself."

"The wise get all the knowledge they can, but when fools speak, trouble is not far off."...Prov 10:14

Remember...our worship is our own personal way of solemnly and sincerely reflecting back to God, the radiance of His love and His effect in our lives.
