Somebody that visited my blog left the following message:
"Your website is full of hate, intolerance and fear.It is a horrible distortion of Christ's gospel"
Well I thought to write a few lines about that,even though it is late and I'm in pain...I didn't want to go to bed without addressing this comment.
You know...I receive emails that from time to time get really nasty.
I've had from catholics to muslims threatening me and insulting me in every way possible.
The type of comments like the one above is usually left by somebody that came by,read a few posts,vented and left.
It is alright...We still have the freedom to do that online and even though I could have chosen the option to filter and moderate comments I decided not to do it,cause I wanted to give everybody a chance to speak their minds,about posts and I even allowed people to send me emails,where they can actually write whatever they want...and believe me...they do....
I wish the person that left this comment,would have expanded more on especifically what and where he thought that my blog is being hateful and full of intolerance and fear,so I could actually have a chance to think and pray about it.
I wonder if by full of "hate" he meant that I have a gay agenda watch,and islamic craze watch,and obama watch,etc,where I post the actual news of what is happening with these groups of people.
Is it hateful to denounce the intent of a total tranformation of our society morals,by gay extremist groups,pushing their lifestyles and flashing their hatred for all those that don't agree with them to an extreme of being physically violent against other people,specially christians....?
Or is it hateful to post news about beheadings,and honour killings and abuse of women and children among muslims in the middle east and the west....
Is it hateful to expose cults and deception inside the church,that seems to be increasing exponentially as the days go by...?
Am I intolerant because I agree with what the Bible calls sin or sinful...?
Am I fear mongering,because I blog about the daily news that break all over our world...?
This world is full of hatred and intolerance and fear.This is the world we live in.
What about the hatred and intolerance against christians here in the US and in other parts of the world....?Is it hateful to blog about that...or intolerant...?
Do I hate muslims and gays and people that don't believe like I do....?
Of course not....I've said many times that I even have a close relative that is openly homosexual,who knows what the Bible says,and knows about heaven and hell,but told me he loves his lifestyle more than what God thinks of him,so therefore he will continue living the way he wants...Do I hate him....?No...I still love him and are close to him,but I cry out to the Lord in prayer for his soul.
Do I hate muslims...?No,I don't...I've said before that my best friend at college was a muslim and he still is and we are still in contact.His family was very close to me in our college years and I had his grandma fixed me whatever middle eastern food I wanted,whe we studied together.She was a sweet person.
Do I hate catholics...?My entire family is Roman Catholic....I was one too...I love them and we are very close.
I could go on and on and on...but what Im trying to say I guess is that Im finding out that there are those that equal siding with the Truth of the Gospel and blogging from that perspective as "hateful" or "intolerant"
I'm siding with Jesus,see...I want to gather not scatter...
I believe the Lord wants me to warn people about Truth and Deception in these last days and that is what I'm doing...
His Coming is nearer now than when we first believed and I want and pray that we can all--that are looking for His return--be READY...and for those that dont even believe in Jesus,that at least they will have a testimony that somewhere in the web they read once about a "crazy christian" that tried to warned them about the signs of His Coming and things to come upon this world....
If by exposing deception in the government,in the church,in the news is hateful or fearmongering...well...so be it....
We live in a dark hour where people call evil good and good evil,and where Truth seems to be difficult to find.
IF I hated people I wouldn't have cared to add an icon with the number of people that go to eternity without Christ by minute,so people can meditate about that fact or sit down and blog for the persecuted or answer emails of those that have questions about the Bible and Christianism...and most of all I wouldn't spend time praying for all the people that visit my blogs--many of whom--I may never meet on this side of heaven...
When we side with the truth and we speak the truth,some may consider us hateful and intolerant and trying to inject fear in people.
I wish people sometimes will actually "READ" what I posted...
We live in fearful times--but we have a blessed hope,and we have everything we need in Jesus.
If this reader was looking for a christian site that will try not to be blunt about certain things,situations,behaviours and will be more tolerant of....let's say...sugarcoating those things that the Lord does not approve in His Word...then my blogs are not for this reader that left that 17 words comment.
If this blog is a "horrible distortion of Christ's gospel" then...may be I'm not saved or may be I may be reading another Bible and then may the Lord help me.
If I was that lost and leading people astray with my blog then the reader that cared to leave the comment would have contacted me by mail and let me know of his concern for my soul and that he was praying for me to see light and truth....just out of love....the love he says I don't have for you that are reading.
Thank you for reading till here...sorry it was long,but I just wanted to address this...
I'm still battling this thing in my body.Another close friend went to be with the Lord unexpectedly this past week and I have a loved one in the hospital.
This seems to be a trying season for us as a family,but we know the Lord is in control and He still has a plan for us.
I'll be blogging as much as my body will let me...I should be resting more but I'm finding difficult to have that time,since all these things are happening in our family at the same time.
Praise God for His Word that comforts us and prayer and fasting and worship....!
I'll update you all pretty soon....!
Have a great and blessed week
Jesus is Coming soon....!!!
Let's be ready at all times
Psalm 34
As in the days of Noah....
