Hi Victor, Paul and Edwin,

I love the site.  How are you all doing?  Are you still doing this or did Satan break it up?

I hope not.

I’m Richard, useless reader of your articles.  I like them.  Very good.  

Thank you for making the effort to do the site.

Hello again Gentlemen,

I’ve been devouring your site.   I’m starting to get a feeling of you having to have the last word, as if you’re afraid of being wrong.  Is it possible being ‘right’ has nothing to do with CHristianity?   I mean, it’s not the ‘what’ of anything (talk, article, interview, sermon….) it’s the HOW i do those things.  With His Presence or without.

I like your site,
Richard

We’re still here and not afraid of being wrong, all by the grace of God Who is with us in His work. 

Do you have any corrections for us?

Dear Victor,

God apprehended me through Jesus Christ in 1973 and I have been dead to this world ever since but alive in Christ.  And now at 69 years old I am waiting and still expecting to see His face before I fall asleep in this world.  My first and only wife fell asleep in Jesus a couple of months ago and my children which are grown and married I have doubts about.

 I have been a serious student of the scriptures and hold to historically orthodox doctrine which means that I believe that the “trinity” formulation is correct, as far as it goes and I do not receive any kind of sabbatarian law because I am striving to enter into HIS rest wherein I have ceased from my own works.  I have not achieved but forgetting those things which are behind I strive towards the prize, the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

I did look at your website, so felt it only necessary and honest to answer as I did.  I have had many debates over the years about these issues and I know the end of that so I am not inviting debate.  It has been clear since the earliest days that those who insist on their rights to different doctrines are heretics and I can only hope that you have not hardened into such.  But your investment in you website shows that you consider yourself a teacher, therefore, you will be judged more severely.  You must return to the simplicity of Christ to escape what is very soon coming upon this world.

genuine regards,
Richard

Let’s see if I have this the way it really is, Richard, in all honesty and objectivity, without intent of or indulgence in debate:
 
You insist you are right and we are wrong, no debate. Right?
 
Not to argue or debate, but what if we were to tell you that Paul and I have entered the rest exhorted by the Hebrews writer in chapters 3 and 4, the rest you admit you’re still striving to enter? No debate.
 
What if we were to tell you we have seen His (the Lord Jesus Christ’s) Face and have been called to speak what He has given us? No debate.
 
Therefore, yes, we do consider ourselves His teachers. Don’t you, with your book? Surely. No debate there.
 
There’s much we can talk about without debate, isn’t there? Not that we invite conversation with you of any kind, least of all, debate.

Hello Victor and Paul,
 
I think this was emailed to me by accident.  I’m a different Richard.

don’t you think it an invasion of privacy between you and Richard for ppl to be admitted to your conversation?

Invasion of privacy – “the intrusion into the personal life of another, without just cause.” 

Is that what’s happening here, Rick? Not at all. The material being shared isn’t prying into and publicizing the personal life of another (which has no bearing on the audience), but pertains to the public declaration and stance of an author who is a propagator of lies, a false teacher at large. Do you really believe this other Richard has the right to spread lies in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ without being publicly called on his perversion of the Truth? If so, where do you find support for your opinion in the Scriptures?

Ron, the story of your religious life is summed up by the idiom: “Out of the frying pan and into the fire.” You think you’re better off now that you “follow ONLY Jesus,” but the truth is, you’re only more arrogant and deluded by following yourself as pope in your own private version of Christianity. Your “Jesus” is a phony, because you’re a phony doing his own thing in the Name of God. You’ve taken His Name in vain and aren’t held guiltless.
 
A response is necessary, because you’ve needed to come under judgment for your independent anti-Christ ways.

Hello Paul and Victor,

Although, i’ve just requested to take me off the mailing list for these conversations, i’m struck by your consistant argumentative spirit.  You have no need to quote scripture about speaking truth in the face of darkness or lies, (as i’m so sure you’ll do) but i do have a question.  

You’re accusing this person of being ‘his own pope’.  Of course this is hilarious considering you do the very same only with no shame.  Who is the authority by which you speak and rebut all these sincere letters of young in the spirit Christians?  

You will say it’s direct from Christ and that is fine….but it’s also the calling card of insanity and at least huge arrogance and anything but the spirit of the Lamb of God.
Maybe you guys should read your own website and shut up for a few months.
Yes?

According to you, Paul, Peter, John, and the Lord Himself were insane. But you are the mentally deranged one, Richard, a damned fool and unstable in all your ways, perverting our words and the Scriptures to your own destruction.

LOL, i see, you 2 self made popes are on the same spiritual level as Jesus, Paul, Peter and John.  Nuff said.  
What you in fact are is TROLLS.  You feed off of an argumentative spirit.  You bait and feed like blood sucking demons.  I’m sure you 2 spend most if not all of your lonely days doing this while believing you’ve a blessing to go with it.

You’re the troll who contacted us, Richard, alternately praising then trying to provoke us, but ending up provoked yourself. What a confounded liar and fool you are. We aren’t taking orders from you, Satan, so now what will you do?
