Actually, no, I've never sinned..
There was only one perfect person in the history of the world who was without sin, and you're not Him.
If I'm going to get salvation, I'll get it from me, myself
Yes, just like all the millions of other people before you that believed the exact same lie. A person is appointed once to die and then the judgment(Hebrews 9:27). That means you have an appointment to appear before your creator. You can deny Him your entire life, but you have to die eventually.
Satan IS my friend
Of course he is, you're doing exactly what he wants you to do. Right now Satan couldn't be happier about how you've rejected God and His plan for your life. Unfortunately, this dreamworld that you're living in will cease to exist the moment you take your last breath. Then you'll be screaming for God's help as you instantly realize what a fool you were.
"And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled only to those who are perishing. In their case the god of this world(Satan) has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the likeness of God." (2 Corinthians 4:3-4)
If Satan was terrified of hell, then please, tell me, why does he rule over it?
He doesn't. Satan isn't in Hell with a pitchfork and a cape. Satan is right here on Earth, 'walking up and down;to and fro'(Job 1:7). Satan has already lost, since Hell was originally created for 'the Devil and his angels'(Matthew 25:41). So right now, he's using everything he can to influence our minds to cause us to reject God and join him in his eternal punishment.
And I'd rather die without Jesus. Jesus was just a man, nothing more.
Someday, every knee will bow(even in Hell), and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord(this includes you).
..And she has NOTHING against gays or my own bisexuality whatsoever.
I don't have anything against Gays either. Actually, a few very nice people who just happened to be Gay have helped me through some tough situations in the past. But that doesn't mean I ever approved of their lifestyle. Tolerance isn't the same as acceptance. Christians are to love and respect everyone equally of course, but that never means we should accept sin.
Acceptance: 1. the act of taking or receiving something offered.
2. favorable reception; approval; favor.
3. the act of assenting or believing: acceptance of a theory. 4. the fact or state of being accepted or acceptable.
Tolerance: 1. a fair, objective, and permissive attitude toward those whose opinions, practices, race, religion, nationality, etc., differ from one's own; freedom from bigotry.
2. a fair, objective, and permissive attitude toward opinions and practices that differ from one's own.
3. interest in and concern for ideas, opinions, practices, etc., foreign to one's own; a liberal, undogmatic viewpoint.
Wow! You are right, they aren't the same! However you're not being very tolerant or accepting.
The more I talk to you, the more I realize all I'm hearing is a broken record. But I shouldn't be surprised because the majority of Christians just say the same things over and over and over again. They can't see outside the box, and if someone is different from them and what the Bible says, then "OMG YOU'RE GOING TO HELL!"
Your replies to my comments make me laugh, because you honestly don't get what everyone's trying to tell you. You say you don't hate gays but then proclaim that homosexuality is a sin? How does that even work? IT DOESN'T. If you say that homosexuality is a sin, then you must think that those who are homosexual are sinners and thus, think that they're going to hell. If you don't hate gays, then just leave them alone and stop preaching all of this bullshit about how god can turn you straight.
As far as the whole religion thing goes, I can tell you right now that nothing you have said has had any sort of impact on me whatsoever except piss me off even more. I'm not telling you to believe a certain way, even though my comments have been a bit harsh. You, on the other hand, keep saying that I'll be bowing down to god and spitting out word vomit about how Jesus is god and shit like that. Obviously you don't understand that you're talking to someone who doesn't give a damn about eternal damnation or fears "god's wrath". Obviously you don't understand that I'd rather give your so-called god the finger before kneeling down to him or "begging him for mercy". Obviously you don't understand that I AM NOT A CHRISTIAN, and so your petty threats will not work on me.
Bottom line? Stop telling gays they need to find Jesus to become straight and stop trying to convert people. It's just rude.
They can't see outside the box, and if someone is different from them and what the Bible says, then "OMG YOU'RE GOING TO HELL!"
I wasn't always a Christian, I was 'outside the box' for years. I drank heavily to the point of alcoholism, used drugs, and hung around anyone who wanted to party. My best friend(a former 70's punk) was a self-proclaimed witch.
If you say that homosexuality is a sin, then you must think that those who are homosexual are sinners and thus, think that they're going to hell. Everyone is already going to Hell. It doesn't matter how 'nice' you are or what great and wonderful things you do for others-that does not get you eternal life(and the escape from Hell). Homosexuals(just like everyone else) need to accept Jesus as their personal savior to be forgiven of their sin and earn salvation.
..then just leave them alone and stop preaching all of this bullshit
Nobody is being forced to read this or even reply. Click the 'back' button and move on.
I can tell you right now that nothing you have said has had any sort of impact on me whatsoever except piss me off even more.
I don't expect you to convert right here and now. But I surely hope at some future time your eyes would be opened to the truth before it's too late.
..And so your petty threats will not work on me.
These are not "threats", it's words of warning that you should take seriously while you still have the chance.
..And stop trying to convert people
Sorry, if I stopped doing that then I wouldn't be true to my God.
If all we have to do is find Jesus, why do we have to stop being gay? I can understand if you're concerned that people will go to Hell and want to save their souls, but if that's the case you should just say "hey, all you people who don't believe in Jesus - you should accept Him so you don't burn forever." not "hey, stop being gay or you'll burn forever."
Why is she even concerned about our souls in the first place? Let US deal with it. And she even said everyone is going there anyway, so what's the big deal? I don't understand why she can't just stop and realize there's other religions that people belong to and that trying to convert someone to Christianity just offends people, like it has me. Not to mention that this whole "testimony" is offensive, not to mention ripped from someone else's journal.
I can't remember the exact verse, but there is a verse in the old testament which states that if a Christian sees someone who's doing evil, and doesn't warn the person that's performing the evil, and that person dies...The evil person will go to hell, but the righteous person (or Christian) will have that person's blood on their hands.
However it also says that if the righteous person warns the evil person, and the evil person does nothing then the righteous person should just let it go.
So I have no idea either why she keeps trying to convert you, especially in this manner.
There was only one perfect person in the history of the world who was without sin, and you're not Him.

That means I'm going to hell. D:
