Jimmy,

Have you considered that hell is a choice? If someone says, "I don't
want to have anything to do with a God that would do this" is
basically getting their wish?

In that regard, "God is being a Gentleman"...giving folks what they
want.

The point is that we are all 'guitly' - and God in the form of
man, Jesus the Christ, took the punishment for all that guilt.
You say He takes no responsibility - but I say He took the
ULTIMATE responsibility and took the punishment, the weight,
the suffering.

And then He STILL loves you enough to let you decide if you
want to accept the pardon offered or not.

Folks resent the fact that "It's God's Creation, and it's His
Rules". Yet, as the Apostle Paul noted in 1 Corinthians 1:18, "The
Preaching Of The Cross is to them who perish (die in their sins),
foolishness and stupidity. But to the saved, it is the Power of
Almighty God".

As the late Hal Lindsey noted, "If the believers ON Jesus, and NOT
just IN Him are wrong...the most we'll lose are a few petty sins,
which don't make anyone happy, anyway. But, if the unbeliever is
wrong...they will spend eternally paying the debt...that they gambled
with their soul, and lost it!!".

In short, one day, we will know who is right.

The one thing God requires is to "believe on The One He has sent".
Yet, He does give each of us free will and choice to say YES or NO.
Basically, it takes no decision on anyone's part to go to Hell...but,
it DOES take a decision on one's part to go to Heaven.

At a church service years ago, this individual shouted out "I wish
God would give me what I deserve!!"...and the preacher retorted "You
had better be careful in what you ask...He just might do it". If all
of us got what we deserve, we would've been stamped out of existence
long ago.

Hey Daryl! Haven't heard from you in a long time! Hope
you are well!

First, as the meme notes "I'm only one step away from being rich...
all I need is money". <G>

Second, after my younger brother's suicide just over 14 months ago,
and ending up with a panic attack/nervous breakdown, that put me in
the psychiatric ward for a week, I'm doing better.

I'm a victim of coicumstance. Time to do "The Curly Shuffle", and

LOL!! Sounds like a good tagline candidate.

I decided to cancel the house insurance (hated to do it), but it
didn't make much sense to have the insurance, if you can't pay the
deductibles. I'm just trusting in The Good Lord to protect my home
from damages.

The "extra money" will go toward food (down to just a few packets
of tuna salad), and maybe to save up for the HandiHams Radio Camp
next September. I am in sore need of a bit of a vacation to get away
from things for a little bit.

I saw on another net where you mentioned not having anyone
to leave it to or something? I get it! "Self insured."

This isn't breaking the 8th commandment...it's gathering research. <G>

That's it. I'm the last of my line. My Dad and my wife died not 3 months apart 18 1/2 years ago...my Mom died just over 6 years ago, and as noted,
my brother killed himself 15 months ago. My wife and I didn't have any kids, because of medical issues for both of us.

The last time I had a train trip was in September, 2009...and the last
time I was outside of Arkansas on an extended vacation was when I went to
the Huntsville Hamfest in August, 2017.

It was changed to a non-working number, as someone didn't pay the phone
bill. <G>
