Where on earth is the LOVE in your hearts, people?
I don't mean to criticize, but if you can accept and welcome an ex-satanist like myself into a forum like this, and furthermore, support me through the most difficult and trying time of my life, why so much harsh criticism here? Certainly, if there is anyone deserving of harsh words it's me...but instead of skepticism and anger, I was welcomed with open arms and shown incredible compassion by so many here on this forum.
I'm not suggesting that the example in this thread is by any means acceptable, but I find myself surprised by some responses.
Jesus associated with tax collectors, leppers, and prostitues and showed them unconditional love, did he not? He came to save those who needed saving the most. He came to take the seeds cast upon the rocks and lovingly place them in good soil...that how I've come to think of my own salvation.
Matthew 21:32
Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you. (32) For John came to you to show you the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes did. And even after you saw this, you did not repent and believe him.
Matthew 18:21
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?"
(22) Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.
Am I wrong?
