Sermon Tone Analysis

|  3As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain men not to teach false doctrines any longer 4nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies.

These promote controversies rather than God's work—which is by faith.

5The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.

6Some have wandered away from these and turned to meaningless talk.

7They want to be teachers of the law, but they do not know what they are talking about or what they so confidently affirm.

8We know that the law is good if one uses it properly.

9We also know that law is made not for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious; for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, 10for adulterers and perverts, for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine 11that conforms to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which he entrusted to me.

12I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that he considered me faithful, appointing me to his service.

13Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy because I acted in ignorance and unbelief.

14The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

15Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst.

16But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his unlimited patience as an example for those who would believe on him and receive eternal life.

17Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever.

Amen.

18Timothy, my son, I give you this instruction in keeping with the prophecies once made about you, so that by following them you may fight the good fight, 19holding on to faith and a good conscience.

Some have rejected these and so have shipwrecked their faith.

20Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have handed over to Satan to be taught not to blaspheme.I urge, then, first of all…  |

Would your god punish me in the afterlife for being agnostic?

I do respect almost all modern religions.

\\ Please tell me what religion you follow also.! Answer

by Metaphysical Sciences I believe that at the end, there are many possibilities of what will happen, heaven being one of them.

If you are a good person, then that's what matters- if you are going to be reincarnated, then you will be in a higher form, if there is heaven, then you will go to heaven.

If your matter disolves into the universe, then what is lost?

Nothing, if you are trying to be the best person you can be.

\\ \\ Personally, I believe that God is kind, and that every possibility will happen, to some extent.

So if you are kind, then God would treat you as what you are- a beautiful, spiritual being and child of God.

It all comes down to what is lost by being a good person?

\\ \\ I believe in energy, that cannot be created or destroyed, and that God is everything, and that we create our own realities.

I believe that we create our own hell, but that there is a place of light and love to go to.

\\ We had Cassity Jan. 14, 2007.

He was so happy.

He filmed the whole thing complemented me.

I had a great delivery and he was there for me in every way.

Well about 2 months later is when the put downs started.

Small ones at first.

Like Can you do anything right.

ANY normal person can do that.

WHY cant you do two things at once YOU will never get your license.

I took a small seperation lasting only 2 days because i needed a break on march 2007 and we were fine when i got back.

He would never discuss the problems with me or pretty much communicate with me at all.

It was to much of a hastle to him i guess.

Things were good for about a month or two.

And then it started again.

He started puting down my family.

We barely ever saw them anymore.

Soon it was only dylan I would see for weeks and months at a time.

I was very lonely and very depressed.

This was about Oct. and the insults had gotten really bad.

They were now your stupid, Your never going to amount to anything.

I hope our daughter ends up nothing like you.

I felt so worthless and ugly.

I felt stupid.

I had finished highschool finally and was waiting for it to come in.

I started working and soon had a miscarriage.

I asked him if I could quit my job and he made me feel like ~*~*~*~* for it even though he knew the reason.

It was like losing a baby didnt mean anything to him at all.

I did quit my job, but felt so guilty for it.

Like I was a loser.

I have a hard time remember things and he would use this againstme when we faught and say i didnt remember what really happen.

And call me a liar constantly like I didnt remember what i said or he had said.

I have a hearing and seeing impearment as well and one of his favorite things were to look me in the eyes with a evil look and call me blind deaf and stupid.

~*~*~*

So I called [my aunt] that night.

She came and picked me up.

Three weeks later we were back together.

I had begged him back.

I felt like I could never find any better.

~*~*~*

I got over it.

I felt like i would die without him.

\\ | Welcome, *h.e.paynter@btint...*[Sign Out, My Account]Hmmm... !

My dad always tells me I'm obese?

I'm 13, 5'2'' and 130 lb.

I know I'm fat, and even my BMI says I'm on the verge of being overweight.

My dad always tells me to exercise, and then he starts lecturing me about obesity, and how I'm going to be obese.

It got on my nerves long before today, and I already have really low self esteem.

On the outside, I make it seem like I don't care about my weight, but on the inside, I just want to break down and cry.

I'm starting to really question my self image, and wonder if I'm really as fat as he says I am.

I heard one of my supposed "friends" in the halls talk with her other friend saying how I'm really fat.

I feel like no one really likes me because I'm fat, and that they talk about me a lot.

I always catch my self comparing my body to those who are thin and those who are more... bulky than me.

How can I boost my self esteem, and stop allowing people to bother me about my weight?
