With so many different people claiming to be the messiah, finding Jesus Christ is now easier than ever, it would seem.

 

 

A.J. Miller and Mary Suzanne Luck, a.k.a. Jesus and Mary of Magdala, as they appear on the welcome page of their website.

 

Last month, Discovery News' Sheila Eldred reported on an Australian man named A.J. Miller who claimed that he was the second coming of Jesus Christ, an identity he claims he first recognized in 2004.

 

And he's not the only one out there to get into the Son of God game. Take a look at some of the other contestants looking to claim the crown of thorns.

Hi Vic,

 

Not sure why you posted this; but, let me give a few Scripture passages which you may find useful when folks try to sell you false teachings and false doctrines:

 

Matthew 24:23-24, "Then if anyone says to you, 'Behold, here is the Christ,' or 'There He is,' do not believe him.  For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect."

2 Timothy 4:3-5, "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths.  But you, be sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry."

Remember, you can always count on the Bible, the Written Word of God -- for it is His full revelation to man.  As you and I know, it is the sole authority to guide man to salvation and eternal life in Jesus Christ -- and to guide us in our daily Christian walk.  In this one book, God has done it all.  All we have to do is to follow His instructions.

 

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

 

Bill

I'm sure it happens pretty often, but I can remember a few years ago a man entered a home in Red Bay late at night. The occupants were asleep, but woke up to find the man taking off his clothes. He first told them he was Elvis, then that he was Jesus.

 

Police discovered the man had walked all the way from Gun Town, Mississippi. What I thought was hilarious was the paper stated he kept his underpants on--not sure why we needed to know that, but the couple told their friends that the man got totally starkers in their hallway while ranting about who he was.

billie, where did you get the idea you had anything useful to tell me

about false teachings and false doctrines when that's all you do is

lie and twist.

What you and I know are two completely different matters and if you aren't

sure why I posted to a certain subject don't worry about. I never ask for or

want a response from you. Why would I waste my time on your convoluted

makeshift heresy.

Vic, my Friend,

 

A wee bit paranoid, aren't you?   In your confused state, you declare, " I never ask for or want a response from you."  

 

My Friend, I am not sure how to break this to you -- but, the TimesDaily Religion Forum is an "open forum" -- as in, "there are no private discussions" on an open forum.  But, I might suggest that if you want to have private discussions with only the cabal -- you might try using the Private Message function.

 

Come to think of it -- that has two advantages.   For you, your discussions can take any convoluted path you choose; for only your chosen "friends" will see them.

 

And, for the rest of us -- we can have normal discussions without your "copy/paste" attempts to, as you have said before, start an argument. 

 

So, you see -- it is a win-win situation for everyone if you restrict yourself to PMs only. 

 

Otherwise, those of us with more rational thinking will occasionally post a response to your copy/paste diatribes. 

 

Bless your heart!

Hi Canade,

 

Not too many months ago, when questioned about some of the articles he copy/pastes into a new discussion -- Vic told us that he often will do this, in his own words, "To start an argument!"

 

But, now I notice that poor Vic is not only limited to his ability to copy/paste -- he also has a bad problem with stuttering!  It seems that, because he cannot think of anything to say -- he just reposts his previous post -- in the same discussion!  

 

Possibly it is because he is "thought challenged" or possibly because he has been so indoctrinated to just repeat what his church tells him to say -- that, he finds it difficult to come up with original thoughts and ideas.

 

But, hopefully, continued exposure to real Biblical teachings from Christians on this forum will help Vic to recover his own mind.  Bless his heart, I do pray for his "stuttering" problem.

 

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

 

Bill

You are a jerk! You add nothing useful or constructive. You are a confused, delusional, egotistic, a**hole of an old man. You live to cause conflict. You should be banned from every forum on the internet so you can't infect others.

DHS, I for one agree with you. He should be banned. But, it's kind of like a train wreck or horrible event- drives up ratings. That's just my take on it. Kind of like a conservative talk show had its "token liberal" to fuel the debate, our little forum has its token idiot. If the resident egomaniac/psycho/liar was banned, perhaps agreeable conversation would ensue. I suggest you, as many others do, keep him on block;-) its a great thing to be able to avoid the nonsense and heresy and discuss matters like adults. He claims to be the enlightened one, but, behaviors are as far from those as Christ as I can ever imagine. Everybody here knows it. I completely get your anger- we all do- its just not worth it- he thrives on it.... Cheers

For my part in this discussion let me just say I never thought Vic posted this because he believes it but rather just as a starter for a conversation and fact is that there are many, have been many and will continue to be many that will come saying they are Christ, Jesus, or something similar.  

 

Interesting that Christ would have never heard the word Jesus while He was here during His Earthly ministry nor did He or the apostles/disciples ever read from the New Testament (as in Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, etc .... ).  Vic has posted enough material on this forum that any member that has frequented this forum would know that Vic would not believe that these people are who they say they are so to treat him as if he did and chastise him about something he obviously doesn't say sounds more like attempting to stir the pot so to say.  

 

 

Hi GB,

 

You tell us, "For my part in this discussion let me just say I never thought Vic posted this because he believes it -- but rather just as a starter for a conversation. . ."

 

I could agree with you except for one fact:  A few months ago, Vic himself wrote that he often posted such things just to start arguments.  So, if we replace you word "conversation" with Vic's word "argument" -- we have a fit.

 

And, even for that I would not chastise Vic; although I find it distasteful.  Where I do chastise Vic is that he so frequently posts long articles, copy/pasted verbatim -- without even one single word written by Vic.

 

Forums are meant to be a place where two or more folks offer their thoughts and we discuss those thoughts.  If we go by Vic's posts -- he has no thoughts of his own.  So, to compensate, he does a 100% copy/paste of another person's thoughts.   If we wanted to discuss and debate the thoughts of a mystery writer -- we would seek out that mystery writer.   We come here to have discussions with Forum members -- not unknown writers. 

 

However, I will give Vic credit for one thing.  At least now he does give us the URL link.  Before he did not even do that.

 

But, when we are supposed to be having a discussion with Vic -- wouldn't it be nice to read at least SOME of Vic's thoughts?  

 

Besides his ranting and name calling -- that is all I have against Vic's posts.

 

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

Hi all,

 

So sad, my two most ardent fans are so limited.   Poor Vic cannot think for himself, so he copy/pastes from a mystery writer.

 

And, poor Crusty cannot read -- so, you have to hold up fingers so he can count. 

 

Please be kind to my two Friends.  For we all know someone who is "challenged" in one way or another.  Please be tolerant of them.

 

Bless their "challenged" little hearts!

VP, my dear Friend,

 

Satirical Humor:  Humor that exposes human foolishness in order to achieve a moral purpose.

 

Now what could be more human foolishness than Vic's constant name calling -- and his propensity to copy/paste articles written by someone else, without even adding a single word of his own -- and doing it for his stated purpose of starting an argument?

 

What could be more human foolishness than Crusty's inability to read and understand more than three sentences in one sitting -- and then that he can only reply by typing a number?  Limited?  You betcha!

 

Finally, what can be more human foolishness than you claiming that you can know what is in my mind, when you write, "Honestly want to know how you truly mean for these seemingly demeaning comments to be understood."

 

First, it is a very poorly written sentence.  Second, I had no idea you are a psychic and have the ability to know what is in another person's mind.  Did you learn that in Catechism?

 

But, God loves you and so do I!

 

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

 

Bill

It was a perfectly structured sentence- I want to understand how you INTEND your words and remarks to be understood by those to whom you write. It was a question. Where you derived at me trying to be a psychic, I have no idea. I want to know if you think your comments are funny, or if you think people are in tune with your humor; are you completely innocent and have no idea that you are so condescending and snide? Or are your tongue in cheek, derogatory comments intended how I perceive them- rude and self righteous. Let me make it simpler: do you have any idea how very rude you are?
Yeah, just giving the benefit of the doubt as he repeatedly insists that he is being funny - so we all perceive his posts as rude- just giving him the chance to ponder that. You know, when one person can't get along with ANYONE else, they tend to lack the insight to do the simplest thing- look for the common denominator

------------------------------

Not sure what the resident troll spit fourth this time since he's on block... Probably just some more of the same old hate filled inane drivel... It's best not to feed his inflated undeserved ego... I know he's an easy target and difficult to resist... But I  keep trying...

 

 

billie will say anything about anything to anger all that he can to focus as

much attention on himself as possible. When no one is responding to his

ignorance he starts his hate tactics just to start a fight. And he usually

blames me for starting fights. At times closet boy will flare up and waist  

whip all non Christian believers, which applies to all who doesn't agree

with him, but the primary reason for all he does is solely for his own ego.

His narcissism demands it.

We can just about tell when closet boy hasn't visited his "experiments" in the park lately. His mood gets more nasty than usual.
