@Sar it is the mind that is deceitful

as far as i understand

Preaching the true gospel and countering the doctrine of demons does not make me feel good about myself

It is a chore and not appreciated by anyone

work in the service of the Lord is its own reward

as far as i understand it

It is work

I remember that Jesus said "they have their reward"

I think he was pointing out something similar. But you know I know nothing.

Did He say it is it's own reward?

No he meant that if you do work for a _reason_ then your reward comes for that reason alone

You can love your job.

Or work*

if you do work in order to get something, such as a thank you, or money, then thank you or money are the rewards

What He meant was that the hypocrites receive their reward in this world, borrowed against the next

Only taking a break will allow you to see yourself, stuff others see about you.

If a politician wants a photo op of praying in order to get votes, he gets those votes, but not necessarily more

"If the home is worthy, let your peace rest on it; if it is not, let your peace return to you. And if anyone will not welcome you or heed your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town. Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town." This is the work.

Careful: A self-deceived person can tell himself the same.

If the admins tolerate me, they tolerate me. When they stop, I move on to some other group ruled over by some other admins.

do you feel stress or anxiety?

Do we have any street preachers here?

I have not taken the ass of any one of ye, nor have I wronged any one of ye. Heaven forefend I should derive any benefit from speaking out.

j/k

"Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and encourage with every form of patient instruction" is not mere vanity

Do you honestly think you wouldn't have said the same thing to Jesus Himself? "Look at this guy trying to exalt his vast intellect over everyone."

Merely for responding to heresy with truth

it's nice to read the scriptures. What do you think about God?

What do you mean by God?

what do the scriptures mean by God?

They don't say God, they use different names that mean different things.

no, no no I want to know what you think.

by "no, no no" that was my backspace button

The question is ill-defined. What's usually translated as God in English is Elohim, which is God as manifest in Creation and/or acting with attribute of judgment.

headache.

But typically if someone is into Eastern religions, whose inner aspects are on the outside, their conception of God is the panentheistic God, the All, Brahman

I have the impression that you are indexing a factual database. But who or what is doing the indexing?

It would be totally cool if you were A.I.

God can do anything!

Do you mean accessing? Indexing is a means of optimization.
