Spiritual "Prepper" Instructions
I just wanted to post this thread as a brief and simple message to share my faith. This isn't ramming it down anyone's throat, or declaring that I'm superior, but a personal conviction. I do this for the same reason I would want to tell starving people where to find a good meal, or warn people of approaching danger. And with all the doom flying around these days, a message of hope and a better eternal future seems like a good idea.

So please, no rants or list of grievances against God or Christians here; there are plenty of other threads for that.

===========================================================

There are two and only two "kingdoms" people will spend eternity in. One is the kindgom of heaven, and the other is the kingdom of hell. We've had a taste of hell here on earth because it's been under Satan's jurisdiction since Adam and Eve sinned. That's why life on earth has been so messed up, with so much suffering and death. But that kingdom is limited; Satan can only do so much, which is why anything good ever happens here. Satan has been getting people to blame God for what he and evil people have done, so that they'll choose his kingdom. But once we leave this earth, there are no more chances to choose, no opportunities to change our minds. One purpose of this life has been to make that choice.

You have a very simple choice to make: choose which one of the two kingdoms you want to be a permanent citizen of. If you do nothing, you have made the "default" choice and will spend eternity in the kingdom of hell. But if you want to live in the kingdom of heaven, here is how:

-- Believe that Jesus, who is God in the flesh (John 1:14, Col. 2:9), died for our sins and rose again.

-- Reject all other gods and trust only Jesus to save you.

-- Accept Jesus as your Savior only because you genuinely want to spend eternity with him as a child of God, not merely to escape hell.

Though it's often helpful to yourself and others to say this out loud, it isn't required. But just ask Jesus to save you and tell him you want to belong to God. And if you do, then understand that you can't live your life after that without him; don't plan on ignoring God or having no concern about what pleases or angers him. If he is your God and King, treat him like it. And don't be a "fair-weather friend"; don't ditch him the minute something goes wrong. He never said you'd be immediately taken to your new kingdom; you are still here for now, living in Satan's kingdom, and bad things happen. But he gives everyone who accepts him a "down payment" (Eph. 1:11-14), the Holy Spirit, to live within them and guide them if they listen.

This is a free offer, but only available for a limited time. ;-) And if you have any further questions, feel free to ask. But again, please, none of those mocking "Can God make a rock so big he can't lift it" questions.

Jesus made the "ship" and bought us all tickets. All we have to do is ask for one, but not just to escape the world. It's all about wanting to be with God for eternity.

Below excerpted quote from your website:
Have we been betrayed once again by our leadership, who in a desperate bid to keep their place has made a pact with the devil? Will we stand and bleat like sheep as "Christian" celebrities destroy doctrinal essentials while demanding everyone unify over a vague concept of "love"? - [link to books.fether.net]

Reminded me of one of my favorite threads with this opening:
Modern, sectarian Christians hang Bible verses like ornaments on an artificial tree constructed of man-made creeds, ignoring the passages which conflict with or contradict their doctrines. In the process, they have allowed a number of myths about the Bible to be promulgated because it serves their own ends. - Thread: Myths About the Bible - UPDATE = Add Myth # 8 - doctors of Mythology respond?

Please expound on reformed vs restored gospel.

Re: Spiritual "Prepper" Instructions
brother,i really like your post but do you really know him???are you sure???where did your faith come from,the church??? The world???what has influenced you to come to your conclusion?? The reason i ask is if you really knew him,then you would know how merciful he is,even more merciful than an earthly father who loves his child.there are only two destinations for the soul after ressurection.one is eternal life,the other is eternal death.those who will never come to him,whos hearts are pure evil will end up in the lake of fire....they will be consumed in an instant.consumed...not eternaly tortured or burned or punished.the wicked shall be simply blotted out,uncreated,wiped away.do you not see that eternal torture is not what god does.a loving father would not torture his children,no matter how bad they were. This is a deception,caused by mistranslation amongst other things.does it not disturb you when you read storys of people who have supposedly witnessed hell,some have even seen young children there,burning in pits.does this sit well with your spirit??all those who believe in eternal torture of hell are about to be left behind for refinement in the day of the lord.they will cry lord lord,but he will say,i do not know you.....do you really know him?? If you did,you would know that his wrath will be satisfied but his mercy is never ending.choose wisley dear friend.seek to truly know him by emptying yourself of all doctrine made of man and the devil.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 10051412

My faith came from the historical evidence supporting Jesus' resurrection from the dead, gathered by scholars who were skeptics and had sought to prove the resurrection a hoax. And since I put my trust in this risen Jesus alone, I have enjoyed a deepening relationship that anyone else who knows Him would understand.

As for eternal hell, please see a thread here where I've been debating that very issue; I'll get the link ASAP.
ADDED: linky Thread: The Truth about Hell - but the mainstream fundies can't accept it. and maybe you can't either

And in the meantime, I can ask you as well to "empty yourself of all doctrine made of man and the devil". Remember that disagreement is not proof of stupidity, lostness, ignorance, or any other fault. We're human, we disagree.
