Except that it does. Those who claim to speak for God are ultimately held accountable.

You go first.

What if your actions are deterring people from seeking Jesus? Would that be sufficient reason for you to stop?

Thus says The Lord: http://www.valtorta.org/jesus_is_tem...faultpage.html

Thus says Maria Valtorta.

Ironically, quoting actual Scripture, as Jesus did to Satan in the desert, is what I did at the beginning. If faced with a choice between the Scripture and random things posted on the internet, I think I know which one I would choose.

What choice will you make?

Fear God and you will not be afraid of the terrors of men. What can anyone do to you by word or injury? He hurts himself rather than you, and no matter who he may be he cannot escape the judgment of God. Keep God before your eyes, therefore, and do not quarrel with peevish words.

From the book "imitation of Christ"

I see you've chosen Thomas a Kempis. That's a least a better choice than most of the others you've been quoting. And you didn't throw in a "Thus says the Lord," which is also an improvement.

In what way is the shame that you've received undeserved? You've repeatedly ascribed to "The Lord" the sayings and writings of people, some of whom have made demonstrably false statements. Perhaps that should challenge your sense of confidence in the testimony of things you find on the internet. For if your shame is that you haven't examined the quotes carefully, and are ascribing to "The Lord" statements that are not His, your shame is fully deserved.

Also, note the "render to everyone according to his works" phrasing. I've already noted what the Bible says is rendered to those who claim to speak for God but do not actually have that authority.

stop with your vain babbling.

Thus says The Lord:

§ all that is written comes from Me; beloved ones, I give My Spirit without reserve; I give My Spirit to remind the world over and over again of My affection and the great love I have for you; I give My Spirit without reserve to remind you all of My Five Wounds and of My Passion;

You go first.

you will go first.

i will not stop praising my God until my last breath and i will probably continue in the here-after.

im a witness of God and the words of my mouth is worth more than gold.

Nah.

Except that much of what you're posting isn't really praising God. If you were actually praising God, I'd probably not have bothered. What you're doing is taking words that others have spoken and prefacing them with "Thus said the Lord" which is a form of false testimony. That's not to the praise and honor of God. That's blasphemous.

As far as I can tell, you're not actually claiming to be a witness of anything. Rather, you're taking other people's words and ascribing it to God. That's not how witnessing works.

And I question the value of the words, especially the ones from the guy that thinks there are trees on Saturn.

this is the most interesting thing you have said so far

Good poker players aren't 'gamblers' so that's fine.

any good poker player is on halt - for good.

Thou shall not play hyper turbo or lottery themed poker, for my wrath will be showed in coolers and bad beats for offensors

Thus says The Lord: Timothy, write as I speak, hear My words and give Me glory. For in My Word is glory, even the truth of which no man shall change. For if any man attempts to change that which I have spoken for his own glory, or in the serving of the evil one, even that man shall I destroy, says The Lord.

Oh froggie, if you aren't trolling, you're in big trouble. If you start believing every person who claims they have heard from God, you'll be mislead by false prophets your whole life and suffer the consequences.

Stick to the Bible and ONLY the Bible. If you seriously believe in Christ, don't be fooled by false prophets. Please. Just stick to the word. You're going down the wrong path and have no authority to claim the quotes you are using are the word of God. Only the Bible. Only the Bible.

As for gambling, there are a couple issues mentioned in the Bible. One is the love for money being the root of evil. But suppose someone is gambling for the thrill or social aspects rather than the love of money. That person needs to question whether or not they are being good stewards of the blessings they have received. Other than that, I have yet to come across anything directly related to gambling as far as I can tell.

lol, this can't be for real. No way this guy isn't trolling. I can't imagine someone making a 2+2 account just to post biblical stuff and try and be all mysterious.

This has got to be a joke right?

God is very fond of destroying people. He should work on that temper.

>:I

You will always find that believers practice cherry picking. The other interesting thing is how true that is for oneself, but it gets way more complex then.

What comes to gambling, that is sure true for people who play games that are -EV, but even there, when the wins are big enough and you are not gambling too much, it is more like a national hobby.

If I think I usually play with +EV (even the national hobby can be +EV even when it isn't), it then is not gambling, and the only thing that can make it bad is that it is life -EV, and as so needs serious thinking of how one should manage one's life and gambling.

Personally, if I would have a better option, I would "gamble" less, but as I don't have, talk to the hand. Not that there are no good things also, and I have quite a bit enjoyed the journey also, and it much depends on management also. But sure, if this is not for you, or you have better things, gamble less.
