JFKvsNixon Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 ...unless he asks embraces Jesus and asks forgiveness right at the last moment Exactly, he's acting an absolutely wicked and evil individual, causing the deaths and suffering for an untold number of individuals. All he has to do is live his last dying minute as a Christian and open his heart to Jesus, and he's got away with it scot free, without any recompense.

mossdog Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 (edited) Love is a chemical reaction in the brain, feelings of love can be induced by drugs........true! lots of things can be induced by drugs, love and hate etc. However This is the love I am referring to...... If I speak in the tongues[a] of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. 4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. 13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. .........may not make sense to you,but St Pauls letters are always enlightening from 2000 years ago as are Eckhart Tolle and Richard Rohr in todays language. Try them on Utube.........would like to know your views. Edited December 9, 2015 by mossdog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What JFKvsNixon said and the heart is just a muscular organ, if love comes from the heart you stop loving the people you love if you had an heart transplant.
