Thanks for that grilling, fl00d3d. I don't mind at all.

See, I really do believe in what I say. Also, everything I have said so far is NOT for any personal gain, power, self-motivation, or fame or status. I don't see why I need to feel powerful. I am also not trying to project any power over anyone or anything. I am just a Christian who defends his faith where so many others don't speak due to fear.

I am merely stating what I believe and I am merely DEFENDING my beliefs against assault from those who want to disprove what I believe.

You said:
"You should really think about the nature of these types of discussions and say to yourself "sure I may fool myself or other people - but 'someone else' may be watching how I represent myself."

As a Christian, I have come a long way. Sure, no one is perfect and if there ever was a sinner with the most massive crimes in his hands, it's got to me. I am not saying that because it is a cliche catchphrase but it's because I mean it. I have commited so many sins and sin after sin...but there was a time when I had to stop and realize what I was doing.

I have a strong eternal relationship with Jesus Christ. I fear God...this keeps me for commiting more sins and keeping the relationship positive. Christianity is not a religion, it's a relationship and the more you fear God, the closer you will stay with Him.

So in other words, I want to ease your suspicion that I, IronBalls, maybe a fake Christian who is just rambling Bible verses. No, I am not a fake...and I believe God is scrutinizing me right now as I write this post. So, He knows if I am a liar or not...if I am a cheat or not. He knows EVERYTHING about me. I know that I will pay the severe price if I lied. So, please understand.

Also, the only reason that I repetedly keep posting in these hot topics (and in many other forums in the web) is to defend my faith and because I am not afraid. Also, it would be a crime, for me as a Christian, if I held my peace.

I don't care what anyone think of me...I sure know a lot of people in this forum lost any respect they had for me (if ever). But that is the price many who do God's work face and pay everyday. I must humble myself and say my arguments here does not amount to doing God's work but I am merely defending my faith and my beliefs.

But I am saying that I am a Christian and after establishing a relationship with Christ (which I have), I have a duty to carry out what is commanded to me: to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ. That should not be intrepreted as something to force ideas to others. I may not always be successful in spreading/defending the Bible but at least I tried and made some aware of the choices available in life.

Or I could have played it safe by the rules of this world...I could have been the nice IronBalls on Renforums who never said a thing...the Iron who never was frustrated or felt the need to address some topics here. Of course, then you would all have a different view of me but I don't like that life of pretending while I had something heavy on my heart that I wanted to say.

In closure, I want to say that I am not ordering or telling anyone what to do...I am just expressing my views and beliefs. I guess they are not so popular.

If you think I am not "sophisticated" or smart enough to join your so called club known as the world AND if membership in this elite cultural club of yours requires me to spit in God's face, THEN I will rather stay "ignorant."

God Bless.
