In this response, I have taken time to search out and post many Bible verses answering your questions. Make sure you take time to read them carefully.


In the same way that punishing your child for sticking their fingers in an electrical socket is compassionate. (The child will not see it this way until they become knowledgeable enough to understand why you punished them.)

I know that you're depending on your existing world view and sources of information as being true, however, if you really search this out, you will discover the association between the fall of civilizations and the rise of homosexuality. )The powers-that-be know this and this is why they so-generously promote and fund homosexuality.) You simply need to do your homework.

Also, the analyzation I made earlier about the connection between violations of natural law and a hardening of the conscience stands true. It's a deeper truth that requires some study which, if you did, you would eventually be inclined to believe.

Further, the easy way to understand the problem with homosexuality is to find out if the Bible is what it claims to be. If so, the answer to the question is easy. If you're not willing to do the work (study) necessary to find out, believe me, you will end up regretting it. Don't let that happen.

I would recommend studying gematria and prophecy in the Bible to learn about the Bible's integrity.

Number In Scripture

There are things that are going to happen in your lifetime that will scare the heck out of you if you don't know what they are all about. Again, don't let that happen.

I would strongly suggest checking out the Biblical prophecies about Gog and Magog and how they relate to modern China. The Bible speaks more about this century than it does about the times when Christ was here.

Strategic Trends, 2007

These are very serious subjects and the rise of homosexuality is—as throughout history—a warning sign, and more.

My compassion is in telling people the truth about living a life that can lead to a relationship with God and with the blessings that it brings. I experience this in my life on a personal level, as does Laura, as do a number of people I know.

I'm telling you the truth when I say that you're missing out. I say this because I have compassion. If I did not have compassion and was simply selfish, then the time it takes me to make this post would simply be a waste of my time and I would not bother.

For those who have an ear.


God is not compassionate on everyone. God offers us an agreement (marriage). If we accept, we can receive the blessings outlined in the agreement. If not, we're on our own.

The truth is that impoverished countries are, enlarge, not asking God for anything (they are serving other gods) and not willing to enter into agreement with Him. As the number of devout Christians subside in the United States, the same will befall this country.

As Christian reach out and help impoverished countries, you will notice that their standard of living increases accordingly.

As an aside, I starved and suffered in great poverty three times in my life. I have much compassion on those who are poor.


It sounds to me as if you're confusing issues. There is so much you don't know about how this all works, but if you study it out, you will find that it does work and the world makes complete sense.

It may help you to know that, besides the starvation that I suffered three times in my life, I also was abused as a child (both physically and emotionally), spent much time in the New York foster care system (which was horrible) and spent most of my life in a near-suicidal depression.

To help you understand my point, I know people who fought in wars and came back injured and are deadly bitter about it. I also know people who had the identical experience and came back as the nicest people you can know.

You see, our experiences in this life are a purification by fire. Your trials in life don't make you butter or nice, they only reveal the truth about who you already were to begin with.

There are people born into poverty and there are people who received mercury amalgam fillings as a child and suffered throughout their entire life as a result. How they act as a result is their own responsibility and a revelation of their own character.

About the issue of being born into horrible poverty...

The natural laws of this creation work for us or against us. If we sincerely ask God for help, He may very well respond. If not, He may still respond but to a lessor degree.

Is it God's fault that there is poverty?

No.

It's our fault for not recognizing that we are the cause of it, and this—on multiple levels. Again, this takes an understanding of deeper things in order to grasp, which I presume that you don't possess, but you would if you learn the valuable lessons in the Bible, yet you seem to refuse and instead live in your own bitterness toward God, which I tell you, is only based on your misunderstanding, not truth.

Great Christian ministries are reaching out to these impoverished people and helping them to learn to live and sustain themselves and to improve their quality of life. In fact, this is one of the essences of Christ's teachings:

"Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him? But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats? Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?"

—James 2:4-7

The poor of this world have a great advantage in that they are rich in faith (if they choose to be), and although they suffer in this life, which of them do you suppose will complain about this life when they are standing on the right side of the great gulf?

Read this parable of Christ:

"There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead."

—Luke 16:19-31


"For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich."

—2 Corinthians 8:9


"For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem. It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things."

—Romans 15:26-27


"And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God. Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother. And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up. Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich. And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved? And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God. Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee. And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake, Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting."

—Luke 18:18-30


"And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh. Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake. Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets."

—Luke 6:20-23


"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord."

—Luke 4:18-19


"Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Execute true judgment, and shew mercy and compassions every man to his brother: And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart."

—Zechariah 7:9-10


Again, you know nothing about the Bible or the concepts that Christ taught. Please take the time to learn them.

"If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling."

—Philippians 2:1-12


"Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted. But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves. Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor! Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold? And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty. Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift? Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon. And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein. And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city: That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar. Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation. O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord."

—Matthew 23:1-39


The truth is, the United States enjoyed a higher quality of life because it employed Biblical principles collectively and individually. As this declines (which it is currently doing), so will the quality of life.


Realize that by taking time out of my day to answer your questions that you could have very well researched yourself, I have allowed myself to become a servant to you.
