Is THREATENING one with an ETERNAL LIFE of HELL, REALLY, ALLOWING that one to FREELY CHOOSE, or is this, REALLY, more like COMPELLING them INTO what to BELIEVE?Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 7:16 amNobody says that. (Not that MAGA is a group, but never mind: we can let the Leftist trope go unchallenged here.)iambiguous wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 6:48 am Right. The MAGA crowd not possibly be more diverse in their opinions.
But there's all the difference in the world between beliefs freely chosen and those compelled.
'your' ONE-SIDED response here "immanuel can, (if 'you' give one), WILL SHOW and PROVE, FURTHER, just how Truly BLINDED by 'your' OWN BELIEF here 'you' REALLY ARE.
LOL If this is NOT a PRIME EXAMPLE of just how DISTORTED people's VIEWS were, back then, then I am NOT sure WHERE you would find a BETTER EXAMPLE.Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 7:16 amThat seems to be how it works.Only liberals compel others to agree with them or else. The conservatives never do that in regard to their own convictions.
If you disagree with a Leftist, you have your business burned, your children harassed, your reputation destroyed, your social media feeds cut, your character assassinated, your head punched...
If you disagree with a conservative, you get disagreed with.
To this one ALL of the people on ONE "side" of 'politics" behaved in ONE way ONLY, and, ALL of the people on the OTHER "side" of 'politics' behaved in ANOTHER way, ONLY. Which, OBVIOUSLY, could NOT be FURTHER REMOVED from what thee ACTUAL IRREFUTABLE Truth of what 'things' WERE REALLY LIKE.
LOLImmanuel Can wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 7:16 amThere is no such thing as a decision with no consequences. Only Leftists seem to think there ought to be....quoting directly from the Christian Bible...
"John 14:6 Jesus said, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
...that they must accept Jesus Christ as their personal savior to be judged worthy of immortality and salvation in Heaven, they can simply refuse to and face no consequences?
LOL
LOL
"immanuel can".
IF THREATENING someone with DAMNATION, that is; CONDEMNING them to ETERNAL PUNISHMENT in HELL, is NOT 'forcing' NOR is 'compelling' them in one way or another, then what is 'that', EXACTLY?Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 7:16 am But you are still not a Christian. So clearly, nobody's forcing you or compelling you.
And here is an example of "minimization" and/or "justification" at its FINEST.Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 7:16 am And mention of eternal damnation itself fails to move you.
So, WHY do 'you' type of people, LAUGHABLY, 'mention' ETERNAL DAMNATION if NOT to influence, guide, NOR compel a person in a CERTAIN WAY?Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 7:16 am So for now, you're just fine...as free as a bird...nothing is compelling you to anything.
BUT, LAUGHABLY, 'we' ALREADY KNOW that 'your' INTERPRETATION of ETERNAL DAMNATION is ABSOLUTELY and IRREFUTABLY False, Wrong, AND Incorrect.Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 7:16 am But every decision comes with consequences. And I guess we'll both see if that's true or not.
SO, what IS ALREADY True has ALREADY BEEN SEEN.
