Yeah? But with God you have a nasty habit of engaging in behaviour that is offensive to everyone else. One step forward and one step back?

Thus that dance of diversity ... and the wobbling or the Great Weaver goes on ... some call Ur the advocate of try it ... maybe ID'll work and you'll know that you shouldn't 'a done that ... the pane of learning in a vision?

Some people observe in a sly way and just know they shouldn't do that ... but Gods do cause them to fail ... just to fit in socially ... because heh ... all of society does it as led by authority ... is there underlying support? You wouldn't believe it ...
 
Building blocs of faith are ICis ... cold heartless religion ... one has to have periods of not knowing in order to store old stuff in the pits of the subconscious for the stranger to use on us when they get back at you in the big melt down ...

Can you see it coming ...? Is there anything stranger than the sub conscious soul/mind/psyche? If denied ... with a rapture of mind will you know things you should've learned about dangers of the desires?

You mentioned above that all we have to do is "do life with others" and not risk spreading the gospel? And yet many have died doing just that...spreading the gospel at great risk to themselves.

Many died living out the Gospel in the right way for their particular contexts. However, we don't live in their contexts, we live in our own. Canada is a secular, post-Christendom, post-modern context. Christianity is dying, and "getting saved" is either a joke to most people, or else just not on their radar screens. I do believe that God still calls us to present the Gospel to people but that no longer involves sounding off on them and offering them golden tickets to heaven. In modern times that kind of approach worked. However, what people cry out for most in our context is relationship.

Waterfall ---this is just my thoughts on this

I believe they did repent because they believed God would do as He said -------so yes they repented because they had Faith in God's word coming to pass -----verse 5 says they believed God ------ as far as Faith building Blocks go -----they had God who dealt with the people Himself -----so God can change one's heart ---and His word which Jonah delivered apparently did that ----I am sure these People had many personal visions of God's word coming to pass -----as it says in Isaiah 55 :11 ---11 My word, which comes from my mouth, is like the rain and snow.It will not come back to me without results.It will accomplish whatever I wantand achieve whatever I send it to do.”

Jonah 3 GW
Nineveh Turns from Its Wicked Ways

Then the Lords poke his word to Jonah a second time. He said,2 “Leave at once for the important city, Nineveh. Announce to the people the message I have given you.”
3 Jonah immediately went to Nineveh as the Lord told him. Nineveh was a very large city. It took three days to walk through[a]it.4 Jonah entered the city and walked for about a day. Then he said, “In forty days Nineveh will be destroyed.”
5 The people of Nineveh believed God. They decided to fast, and everyone, from the most important to the least important, dressed in sackcloth.
6 When the news reached the king of Nineveh, he got up from his throne, took off his robe, put on sackcloth, and sat in ashes.7 Then he made this announcement and sent it throughout the city:


Your Quote ----How wouid you feel if Chansen and Pavlos make it into heaven and you don't? Is that even possible

Well Waterfall ----anyone can get into Heaven if they believe have Faith that Jesus Christ died and was resurrected and shed His Blood to cover all sin for all people forever and have the Holy Spirit they will have eternal life -------- if Chansen and Pavlos were to get into Heaven without receiving Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour ---then under the New Covenant God would be a lair and a respecter of persons ---- and God says This about that ---God never varies from His word ------and God is not a respecter of persons but is a respecter of His word ----- Acts 10:34
Then Peter began to speak: "I now truly understand that God does not show favoritism,

and Jesus made ti very clear in John 3 ----you must be born again ----so there is no chance that God will allow sin in heaven ----His Kingdom is a Holy Place and He states in Revelations 21:27 ---nothing unholy can enter ------and your name has to be in the Lambs Book of life -----

New International Version
Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life.

Do you believe God can and does speak to nations directly even today? Does He speak to those who do not know Jesus?
 
Pr.Jae ---your quote -----Christianity is dying, and "getting saved" is either a joke to most people, or else just not on their radar screens.

in my opinion Christianity is dying cause we humans are trying to teach ---preach what we want not what the Holy Spirit tells us to preach ----Jesus is the rock on which the Church is built and we humans have destroyed it Human have taken it over-----by trying to have humans run and preach the Rock message ---our humans Church is built on sand and is sinking when the storms come ------ the gates of Hell are overpowering it ----to many different man made Religions ---preaching what they want ---Jesus to His Disciples to wait for the Holy Spirit and then go and preach -----

Jesus said this see scripture below ----- verse 17 ----No human revealed this to you, but my Father in heaven revealed it to you.18 You are Peter, and I can guarantee that on this rock[a]I will build my church. And the gates of hell will not overpower it.19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you imprison, God will imprison. And whatever you set free, God will set free.”

Matthew 16:13-20GOD’S WORD Translation (GW)
Peter Declares His Belief about Jesus(A)

13 When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”
14 They answered, “Some say you are John the Baptizer, others Elijah, still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
15 He asked them, “But who do you say I am?”
16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God!”
17 Jesus replied, “Simon, son of Jonah, you are blessed! No human revealed this to you, but my Father in heaven revealed it to you.18 You are Peter, and I can guarantee that on this rock[a]I will build my church. And the gates of hell will not overpower it.19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you imprison, God will imprison. And whatever you set free, God will set free.”
20 Then he strictly ordered the disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Messiah.
 
Waterfall ----your quote -----Do you believe God can and does speak to nations directly even today

This is what God says ------John 9:31 ---New International Version
We know that God does not listen to sinners. He listens to the godly person who does his will.

John 4:24 ----New International Version
God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth."

So you can make up your own mind about your quote ----- in my view ---we have to have the Holy Spirit and we have to pray in the spirit and invite God to get involved in human worldly affairs -----He gave Humans Complete control over all the Earth ---not spirits ---so if God got involved in worldly affairs without an invitation through prayer he would be violating His own word and be a liar ------

How does one become godly in your point of view unsafe?
 
Hyphen nations ... like sharks, or killer wails about not having enough to get across a large rapture?

Can you imagine a strange power creating RIP in reality for a place to put virtue? Isn't that de Deus 'd thought ...

Luce, I wish I could make phonetic connections like you can. That's uncanny.

Some find it strange and thus leave me to myself ... it really is peaceful to encourage people to believe your strange ... imagine the antics of the devil ... that other demi-whole thingy! In the beginning this may have been god's breather in a gaspeasia way ... allows some sucking up ...

Having the Holy Spirit ---and a lot of practice and hard work on self ------God has given us all spiritual tools to be Godly ----but up to us to do the work ---working on ourselves at every moment and chance we get to do so ------

2 Peter 1:3-15GOD’S WORD Translation (GW)

God’s Power Gives Us the Ability to Live Godly Lives

3 God’s divine power has given us everything we need for life and for godliness. This power was given to us through knowledge of the one who called us by his own glory and integrity.4 Through his glory and integrity he has given us his promises that are of the highest value. Through these promises you will share in the divine nature because you have escaped the corruption that sinful desires cause in the world.
5 Because of this, make every effort to add integrity to your faith; and to integrity add knowledge;6 to knowledge add self-control; to self-control add endurance; to endurance add godliness;7 to godliness add Christian affection; and to Christian affection add love.8 If you have these qualities and they are increasing, it demonstrates that your knowledge about our Lord Jesus Christ is living and productive.9 If these qualities aren’t present in your life, you’re shortsighted and have forgotten that you were cleansed from your past sins.10 Therefore, brothers and sisters, use more effort to make God’s calling and choosing of you secure.
If you keep doing this, you will never fall away.11 Then you will also be given the wealth of entering into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
12 Therefore, I will always remind you about these qualities, although you already know about them and are well-grounded in the truth that you now have.13 As long as I’m still alive, I think it’s right to refresh your memory.14 I know that I will die soon. Our Lord Jesus Christ has made that clear to me.15 So I will make every effort to see that you remember these things after I die.

How will we know when we're godly enough for God to listen to our prayers?
