Who am I , I am not without sin, to be able to cast the first stone.
What is that supposed to mean? You can still condemn sodomy and anyone who practises it. You
should condemn them!
Not all sin is the same and not every person is the same. As the redeemed, we have forsaken the wicked works of darkness. Yes, we understand it is by his mercy that we were redeemed, not of our own merit. Saved from what? God's wrath? Why were we under his wrath? For our actions. What actions? The same godless actions that the lost practise to this day. If God hates it, so should we, as his blood-bought people.
You know Arthur: Just like Sodom and Gomorrha, the time is riping for God to destroy the earth.
I know these are signs that will indicate that the time is drawing so near.
I welcome the time when God will grace the earth.
These signs of darkness must come to usher in the era of the AntiChrist.
Why are we so surprised that it is here.
Yes, and no surprise here. I don't accept it as normal or ok though. Sodomy is an abomination.
There is nothing I can do to stop government from making these stupid rules. I sign the petitions and written to my member of parliament, and I exercise my right to vote, so I can consciously rightfully complain when the government does something displeasing.
If you dont vote, dont complain.
Same here, nothing I can do. I do vote, but it's meaningless. The representatives that we elect don't care about the people. For example, on the gay marriage issue that came before the senate, there has never been so many calls, letters, emails in the history of the U.S. that came into senators from concerned citizens about this issue. And 500 to 1 it was in favor of making a bill to protect marriage. BUT, did the senators listen to the people? Heck no! They voted according to whichever lobby/special interest had them in their pocket.
If a gay man, repents and practice celebracy. Would you still have him executed.
No, I would not have him executed. If he repents, then he'd be set free of course. But if does it again, i.e. no true repentance, he's dead.
COMPASSION.
WHERE IS YOUR COMPASSION.
I am on welfare, I am a single mother I raised two girls working part time jobs.
I am not trying to seek disability for mood disorder.
In this small town there are no jobs except part time jobs, which pays only minimum wage.
It is not enough to support myself, let alone a family.
I dont drive, so I have to work in town, where walking distance is a must.
I have to have medication for my antidepressives, which without a government welfare drug card, would cost me $100 a month.
I live in social housing, I pay gas heating, hydro, water, plus my phone.
including groceries, cleaning supplies, hygienic supplies and my furry family members needs.
I also have debts.
Last month I only received $368.00 per month to live on. It is no pleasure ride on welfare.Ontario Works.
Being on welfare is emotionally bankrupt and financially bankrupt.
I have volunteered with in the community and with in my church.
You are probably going to say, I am trying to justify my reasoning. But if there was a full time office job outthere somewhere, where I can gained the skills, usefullness, confidence and acceptance. I will be glad to accept.
Arthur. You told me to wake up. There is nothing I can do about this country policies.
But I think Arthur you need a reality check, of fact that there are people out there that need compassion and understanding.
This why I asked you about some of your rules.
Are there going to be jobs out there to have.
Your King Arthur's kingdom is not realitic and human demeaning.
With out expections in life. There is no COMPASSION.
LENORE
Lenore, I have compassion. If I were king and you were to come to me with your story, I help you out. As king I couldn't fix every persons individual problem, but I'd do my best. Also, as I've mentioned, after I'd get these reforms in place, situations like yours would be the exception and not the rule. Your husband wouldn't have left you, or if he had died your church would help you out. (That's what they are supposed to do, look after the widows, unless you remarry and depending on your age and behavior).
Some questions, what happened to your husband? Is he dead? divorced? Was there a court order for him to pay child support? Is he paying child support? Does your church help you? friends? family? And if things had turned out differently you might not need to take pills for depression, because you wouldn't be depressed.
