Nah, I don’t think I can because the way you speak about “free sex,” makes me want to make a point. So answer the question. Have you ever had sex?

God has stirred in my heart rather than pointing out the Sin of even those who judge us simply, point out the Savior.

I continuously just show people what the light of love looks like which is the revelation of Christ. God in Man and Man in God!

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 NIV

[4] Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. [5] It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. [6] Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. [7] It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. [8] Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

https://bible.com/bible/111/1co.13.4-8.NIV

I first learned that the word isn't meant to be studied like an Engineering manual. Or like a book of principles you apply to your life. Rather the word is a resonant expression of your very reality once you are born again. It is going from sin consciousness which is a mind governed by to flesh to SON consciousness which is a mind governed by the Spirit!

One can not be born again before first dying. What are we dying to? Our former state of living by the flesh and the flesh perspective! We come to the Cross and die to the flesh perspective with Christ and then are resurrected into a new reality! The Spirit perspective!

I am seeing this in myself. Overcoming an intellectual understanding and being a living example. It's clear you are filled with the spirit. You get it. You are it. I am inspired by your light.


Hallelujah bro! Let me tell you, he has done such a work with me and it all came by one thing: Resting in his love. When you rest in his literally unconditional love you are having true intimacy with God. And in that place your inner glory (the Holy Spirit) overtakes the flesh reality.

Everything I do now is in the resting of his love. So it's not human effort or carnal understanding that gets in the way, it simply resting in his love as a Son. Looking in the mirror and seeing Christ. Humility is agreement with the way God sees you. Pride is actually refusing to see tourself as the way God sees you in Christ. It is continuing to allow yourself to continue to live under the condemnation of the law (an acceptance standard based on rules which define good and evil). No the word says we die to the law and made alove onto the imputed righteousness of Christ and Christ alone (the new wine reality of Son ship). The Father looks at you with perfect love and acceptance in Christ Jesus. All we do is believe and receive the eternal Spiritual reality of Son ship through Christ!

Hebrews 9:14-15 New International Version (NIV)
How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!

Ephesians 1:13-14 New International Version (NIV)
When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession—to the praise of his glory.

Galatians 2:15-16, 19-21 NIV
[15] “We know that a person is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law no one will be justified.
[19] “For through the law I died to the law so that I might live for God.

[20] I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. [21] I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!”

https://bible.com/bible/111/gal.2.15-21.NIV
New reality of Son ship!
All who receive and believe in Jesus, given the right to become children of God. Not born of flesh, but born of Spirit. The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. Glory that came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

My question is, why does being a good human being (forgiving and loving others) have to be tied to religion tho?

I believe there’s more to everything than meets the eye, but I’m not down with forcing people to believe in a bunch of rules written in a book by a bunch of men I don’t know from thousands of years ago, and even worse, condemning or killing others in the name of that religious book if they don’t subscribe to it.

Every person knows right from wrong deep down, it doesn’t have to come with all the other stuff imo..

My journey was an interesting one. I guess everyone has their own path. Being a good human being means what exactly? God opened my eyes so I could see the truth. I believe because God's word is true. And I promise you, what the world is selling is a bunch of lies. Once your eyes have been opened you'll see there is no being a good person without faith in God.

Even those who are agnostic and have understanding will need that faith when life presents challenges. These are the people who, when they are faced with calamity, finally get on their knees and beg for His mercy.



Being a good human means the obvious… be kind, help others, spread love not hate, don’t be greedy, don’t kill, don’t steal, etc… and when you do make mistakes, put your ego and pride aside and have accountability and apologize/make amends.

I’m sure we’d all agree that we’re born with that knowledge, it’s just a matter of if individuals choose to do the right thing or not… that’s free will.

If he wants to talk about free sex and abortions and women like that then he needs to step up and tell us from what **** experience he can speak from.

I didn’t call him racist, so what the **** are you responding for? Captain save a virgin.

Christian morality has no place in politics. It is a biased and extorted POV that seeks to eliminate any other POV and has been used to justify horrific crimes against humanity and is as hypocritical as it gets. Tell the churches to pay taxes and get back to me.

Now this is closer to the truth. You hate Christianity, feel it's biased (whatever that is supposed to mean lol), and want your views of right and wrong imposed.

This whole thread has been an exercise in morality. I disagree with most of what those on the left have said, and as a result, I'm not merely mistaken, but apparently I'm in atheist sin and have been labeled as a blasphemer, a racist, a fascist etc. Someone's right and wrong must be the law of the land. You don't need to go to church or real the Bible, but we don't want Satan's ways ruling America.

There is a clear support for godlessness in this forum. Yet they claim you to be the immoral and inhuman person for not supporting free reign abortions, monogamy and the exploitation of sexuality in everyday society. When God is forgotten, the counter culture becomes the culture and decency is gone, every great civilization has fallen.

(A) Would you rather Trump win now, and then be free and clear of him 2028 and onwards?
(B) or would you rather Harris* win now, but have another 4 years of Trump lurking, and running yet again in 2028?

I think the answer is A (everyone wants to win now), but if you truely believe Trump is the main problem (more so then conservative party/values/policies), would it be better to just rip the band-aid off and get it over with?

Not looking for derision, just a thought experiment.


I think if Trump loses, he's done. The republican party will move on, even if a maga following remains.

He's already bad for the party. The people he endorses often win the primary but lose the general. I think enough people want to be done with him that he won't be a factor in 2028, that and his age.

But if he was 20 years younger, your question might be worth exploring. Me personally, I want him to lose in 2024 more than anything.


Put another way, all those Big Macs are gonna catch up to him at some point. Beat his ass now, coronary later.

If it was easy, we wouldn't have the division and disagreement that exists. Does kind mean avoiding unpleasant conversations? What is love? Is it greed to not want to hand most of your money over to the government because you believe you will make better use of it? The human heart is wicked. Without a source, most people will never be able to see that they are wrong. In fact, I observe this readily. A lot of people believe that their emotions are the source of truth, and in that, one can never be wrong. If you felt angry and blew up, that anger is justified because that's how you felt in the moment.

It seems to me that this really is a battle between faith in God, and self worship. Our worship of our own feelings. Our own understanding. Most of us struggle to submit.

Flesh though created in the image of God is not God's actual nature. Flesh can have a semblance of righteousness under the law but at best like the moon it is not the power source. . It wanes and waxes and is a dim reflection of the true power source, the Sun (The Son!) The law seen in true light continuesly reveals our need for righteousness not our abundance of it!

We need to be born again to enter the kingdom! Receive the nature of God given through the revelation of the new reality of Son ship through Christ Jesus!

He is the way, the truth and the life. You come to the Father through him! Because he is the new reality of Son ship for mankind!




[9] The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. [10] He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. [11] He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. [12] Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— [13] children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.

https://bible.com/bible/111/jhn.1.9-13.NIV
New reality of Son ship!
All who receive and believe in Jesus, given the right to become children of God. Not born of flesh, but born of Spirit. The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. Glory that came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
