In reply to The Truth Hurts...and it sets us free, posted by tire on December 2, 2003, at 19:29:18
very eloquently said, i compliment this person...people ask today as Pilate did, "What is truth?", its easy for us believers, because we have Jesus who said "I am the truth." He is the embodiment of truth...
for mental illnesses, i don't think He always heals us of our mental illnesses, although sometimes he does, but the most important thing there is, is to have Jesus with you... its such a simple thing to ask Jesus into your life and to have Him help you... i could not make it without Him nor could I have made it thus far without Him...so many try exclusively to understand totally with their minds they ignore the spiritual aspects of the self...of course the brain is important as is all aspects of our physical parts, and Jesus is concerned about it all... our spirits and our bodies will not be and are not to be separated until we die... somehow Jesus comes in to our spirit with His Spirit when we invite Him to and does His magnificient work... I can't explain it, but He knows whats best because He created us... if we just admit our need for Him and ask Him to come into our heart, He makes everything better...
> I've read many different issues that are posted on this board and most of them are very sad. It's sad to believe that all these people are just rambling on with no evidence to support their convictions. It's sad that people out there flock to listen to these infinite lies and keep feeding the lies. Willing to listen to anything their itching ears want to hear but when the truth is spoken they turn away. Don't be fooled!

> There is one God and one Lord, that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Everyone will bow before Christ, either during their life, at their death or when He comes again. There will be no one standing before Him. Not the Pope, Billy Graham or even Hitler, they all will bow down before Christ. Jesus died to give us life. If you confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord you will be saved...if you do not...then you will not be saved. If you honor any other god besides Jesus, you will not be saved. It is just the way it is. You can't reason your way out of it or think your way out of it. It doesn't matter if you plug your ears and gouge out your eyes...the truth is known. The truth is complied into a book we call the Bible. It is absolute truth; there is nothing that stands against it. Christ is coming again. Be ready. Don't get sidetracked with clever sounding arguments and interesting concepts--Jesus will be revealed before all of us very soon...are you ready? Biblical prophecy is being fulfilled right before our eyes (Israel, Middle East, United Nations, Terrorism, The European Union) this is not made up. We are living in the final days, don’t follow someone’s beliefs because you like it. Follow God because He is who He says He is. He does not lie or conceal the truth. He loves you and me. He gives us hope for eternity through his Son Jesus Christ.

> Jesus is asking you right now to follow Him. There were two thieves that hung on the cross with Jesus, one hurled insults at Him and rejected Him, the other accepted Him while He hung dying on the cross. Which example will you follow? Are you going to reject Him or are you going to accept Him? There are only two options.
