You are misreading I'm writing, either intentionally or unintentionally. If you care at all about the truth, seek the truth. If not, then don't. God gives you the choice to choose, and it is you who must live or die from the consequences of your choices, Chris. I point you to Jesus Christ and give you His teachings as best I'm able. It's up to you now to do the rest. Best regards, Rick C. Hodgin

There aren't many examples of this in the world, so it would seem to be
a bad idea. Satan always enters in and destroys all such efforts through
the sin living in each of us in our flesh. He makes the cooperation and
surrender unto God system seem like a cult, and something to be avoided.
It's not a model that has been successful because of sin. And I've had
thoughts that it might not even be truly possible here on Earth because
of sin, but as I have those thoughts I also remember:
http://biblehub.com/kjv/philippians/4-13.htm
13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
It requires that focus on Him, that willingness to put all of our faith
and trust in Him. To do our part, but to call upon His name. And there's
more to it than just my opinion or beliefs in this area. I may have ideas
that are appropriate, but won't work at a particular time (or ever), so
the Lord doesn't just let me run out there with reckless abandon. He is
the Good Shepherd, and He watches over His sheep. He will protect me from
making horrible mistakes. Or rescue me from them if I make them. He's
done it time and time and time again. :-)
To live a life in submission to Jesus Christ, looking to Him for all things,
honoring Him with everything we possess in our lives ... this is what He is
seeking. To worship Him in spirit and truth, with the spirit leading, and
our bodies falling in line behind His guidance through the spirit, unto the
good works of His here on Earth for Him, for our fellow man.
It's a tall calling ... and I haven't personally met anyone yet who is up
for it. And I'm still learning the details of how to proceed, because I
haven't even heard teachings from pastors on how to do it. They all say
that because of sin it will not work. But I know Jesus Christ defeated
sin at the cross. And if we have faith to trust in Him we can accomplish
anything together.
Best regards,
Rick C. Hodgin

Have never heard that before. And given the prior conveyances you've
had regarding scripture, I will have to see proof of that from a
Biblical scholar.
Here's what the original Greek tells us about those passages:
http://biblehub.com/text/matthew/19-24.htm
eye -- http://biblehub.com/greek/5169.htm
of a needle -- http://biblehub.com/greek/raphidos_4476.htm
to pass -- http://biblehub.com/greek/1525.htm

The cost of labor is separate from non-labor costs, both fixed and variable. And it has to be tracked separately for tax and insurance purposes. All added together gives the cost of production. -- ================== Remove the "x" from my email address Jerry Stuckle jstucklex@attglobal.net ==================

You have to give up on this life in order to gain eternal life. You have to die for this world. That's clear message.

He also warns about this in Revelation to John. Lukewarm Christianity:
http://biblehub.com/kjv/revelation/3.htm
14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These
things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the
beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would
thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot,
I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and
have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched,
and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou
mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed,
and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint
thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore,
and repent.
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice,
and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him,
and he with me.
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne,
even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his
throne.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the
churches.
Who has an ear to hear what the Spirit says unto the churches?
Best regards,
Rick C. Hodgin

I can sell 0 copies at $100,000 ea. Or I can sell 20,000 copies at $10 ea. I the first case, I am hungry, homeless and without means to make more money because my computer died and I can't afford to fix/replace it. In the second case, I have a warm home for my family, food on the table and money left over to buy new equipment. But according to Rick, I can't sell the copies. I can only sell the original. -- ================== Remove the "x" from my email address Jerry Stuckle jstucklex@attglobal.net ==================

This is because you performed a 100,000$ worth of labor. But, according to Rick, God's right hand man, if you make any money over a 100 grand and keep the profits for your family's well being, then you are equal to the sins of hi%ler, because, hey man, sin is sin is sin, ya know? Damn, rick is nuts! And be the way, Rick is promoting God as a hardcore, communist hive mind dictator, hyper-jealous demented wack job. That wants his creations to be on their knees, and be happy about it!
