....instead, we are just passing through the world on "the way" to
eternal life in HIS everlasting Kingdom.

We do write HIS way.

Without the LORD, your fantasies are meaningless (Ecclesiastes).

You remain in my prayers dear neighbor Joe whom I love
unconditionally.

I wonder what the real Dr. Chung will say when he finds out you've been
using his name under false pretenses.

In article .com>,
says...
<flushed>

The fact that Chung posts obsessively about "PROOFS" is proof of one
thing only.

To the truly faithful, no proof is necessary. He is either totally
insecure in his beliefs, and therefore clinging to straws of hope that
he has actually backed the right horse, or his Christianity is about as
genuine as his scam diets and other lies.

Either way the "PROOF" is there. Chung is no Christian. In fact he's
"convicted" by his own spluttering and hissing.

presumably the same thing that, if there is indeed a God, he might be
asking too. And for the same reasons.

The same thing you would say to your reflection in the mirror when you
understand that it is the nature of your reflection to look like
you...

.... nothing.

And so my posts will look like that which I would write.

Truth is simple.

Clearly you remain convicted by the Holy Spirit:

Brother Phelps is going to be annoyed with you for failing to point
out that it's "lying, false prophet Jerry Falwell", a
"wolf in sheep's clothing", who "has made those that follow

"Falwell is in Hell! Deal with it!"


Oh, and by the way:

Falwell bitterly and viciously attacked WBC because of
WBC's fiathful Bible preaching -- thereby committing
the unpardonable sin -- otherwise known as the
sin gainst the Holy Ghost.


Does this mean that not only is Jerry Falwell in Hell,
he's also become a demon?

HE guides me and not the other way around.

You are already well on your way on a one-way fishing trip without
HIM:

another religious loony demonstrates the same kind of schizophrenic
