okay Sir, @The lord

The summary of the above is 'I can't tell'. That's better than long story.

Ah! "That I may know you oh Lord" should be our hearts cry.

For we must all stand before the Judgement seat of Christ, that we may be judged based on what we have done in the body, either good or bad.

We have but one chance. So consider this earthling, "What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?"

Shall you boast of the souls committed to you from the foundations of the world? or shall you boast about your religious doctrinal practices that whip no air?

Scoring oneself against others is pointless.

Ah! but you did put Mary first.

Who knows if you did deny. "For in works and deeds do they deny our Lord" the scripture says.

Be careful to watch your soul. For in this life you have your hope.

Does the great King and Father, Love and esteem Mary more than you?

Alas!

So you are indeed void of such knowledge.

*Oh Lord, that the eyes of your children be opened and that they may know the inheritance You have given unto them*

The scripture is full of the answers you seek, O! earthling.

My great King and Father loves me just the same as He loves the great King Jesus. No more no less. You indeed accept less because of your insecurity. Insecurity is birthed by ignorance as we know.

The great King, Sire, is not a respecter of persons.

Waoh. Thanks for the lesson though

But I am a respecter of persons. I don't love Rooney more than I love my mum. But I love them.

Phileo love is what you talk about here Sire. Not Agape.

Be enlightened. Agape love never prefers one over the other. Now we start to see that you are void of what scripture teaches.

Fallen humans dwell mostly on Phileo, But My great King came and presented us with His Agape.

Embrace it son. It's your doorway to the fullness of God.

Agape Love involves hate.

The truth involves hate.

Compassion involves hate.


For without hate, there can be no compassion. The truth you stand for sire, must be surreal.

The devil together with his works and co-workers is not the truth.

What do you know is the definition of truth?

Is it possible for someone to say 'I don't know'? No, I don't think so. It's not in the dictionary of agape Christians.
