I think a few of know what the presence is.....

TSF got to say that admission of yours actually made me like you the most I ever have.

But I think you make yourself hard to love and like by other people, if you were in my church id call you a 'grace grower'.

its a fake word (love) because there is no such thing as human love...

people only "love" you when you are... at your best... when you dont have problems - or dont have too many... or whatever... or maybe you have problems they can deal with or what have u...

true, Christians (real ones, that is) have the love of God in them (on a good day ) and they can kinda half-way "love"... but... well... still, their love is so limited... This is not a hugely bad thing.. its just the way things are..

anyhow... i guess what i am saying is

Jesus loves everyone

people don't
We are commanded to love one another. Love is easy for me. I would do no harm.
But, liking someone, that is another story.
Still, I have love to share, it isn't always welcome and I respect that.

I believe God created us for Love. He loves us. He has given us the freedom to love Him or not.
Matt 22:36-40

Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment.

Sound Like a Commandment to me instead of a choice of freedom !

What god do you serve ?





Rom 2:28-29

28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

Jesus saves completely. A9D-EL

Titus 1:10-11

For there are many insubordinate, both idle talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, whose mouths must be stopped

Yes. Love isnt forced. He doesn't want a robot. If he wanted a forced relationship, adam and eve would never have been capable of sinning.

I would agree with that for the most part. Although, I would add that, in this context, hatred can be forced. The freedom to love (or perhaps not) extends from the mercy of God. Without His mercy, one may indeed be "a robot"--at least in the sense of being hardened for the purposes of His power, glory, and the love of His children. This is a hard saying, and I know not everyone will agree. However, we must contend with the scriptural idea that God has ordained villains in His grand plan.
