God did send me here on a mission. I'm really only here for one reason but the devil keeps trying to knock me off course before atheists can make the connection.
keeper.

Thanks, Mom.

No. Seriously I will get back to you later today. I haven't been feeling 100 percent these days as I seem to still have some health problem. I had major surgery about a year ago and thought they fixed things but maybe they didn't.

I also don't spend enough time on prayer and I'd rather devote myself to Giantbran's request today and figure out the best healing prayer and I have to consult Halley's handbook and read through a few prayers.

Also I am behind on my personal stuff and the devil's been attacking my family lately because I wouldn't quit on this forum.

So pray for me, o.k.?

while I wish you well for your health and family... I have to wonder about this statement. Not only have you confirmed that Satan himself is attacking your family, he also somehow let you know he's doing it specifically because of your blogging on a poker forum? Who knew that 2+2 was such an area of concern for the prince of darkness. (I bet he plays Razz)

How did he communicate this to you? Did he make threats? If you don't leave RGT on 2+2 I'll attack your family? Did he use email???? Let us know so that we can identify Ol' Scratch when he's here.

You guys are confused. Splendour actually considers rizeagainst to be Satan. Which is probably not the worst educated guess.

Lulz. But I guess if you believe in a personal Saviour, you should have a personal Satan, too.

Splendour, there are more important things in life than this stupid forum. If you're having health problems and family problems, perhaps your time could be best spent elsewhere if this forum is causing you stress.

Re: A Believer and an Unbeliever on the Poker Table

Well I have to go to the grocery store today before I run out of food to eat for the week.

I suggest you guys look up Genesis 3:15 and think seriously about what that verse means.

It is a verse that is greatly overlooked in bible teaching.

Take note of who the LORD is speaking to.

Re: A Believer and an Unbeliever on the Poker Table

Oh btw before I leave for the day.

Science seems to have confirmed that animals have souls. Genesis says animals have souls.

So who do you think is right about human nature? God or a bunch of scientists?

Who said what human nature was first?

looked it up. Now I realize that a message to a serpent in a 2000 year old allegorical tale can be relevent to us today. After all, my wife really hates snakes.

From HERE
Quote:
This is not a messianic prophecy by any stretch of the imagination. Nothing in this verse refers explicitly to the Messiah other than in the generic sense, that the Messiah will be a human being who descended from Adam and Eve, i.e., someone of mankind. Other than that, this verse describes the general notion that people will have a dislike for snakes and hit them in the head, while snakes will bite people in their feet.
Thank you for posting this. It really has nothing to do with anything anyone has been talking about but it was rathar prophetic of the authors of the OT to figure out that people might hit snakes on the head.

I'm going to call BIG WHOPPER OF BULL on Splenda here.

Science has not confirmed that there is a soul, so they certainly can't confirm that animals have them.

Are you just making stuff up randomly now or did you read a science book as written by Kirk Cameron?
