I Have Been Saved
 
I found Jesus Christ. I am celebrating that he died for me. My life has improved considerably since I found Him. This is an incredible feeling. I have never been this happy in my life. The peace I have found is intoxicating. I am now trying to improve my relationship with the Lord.
Im not sure if this is the place for this. But part of a relationship with Christ is sharing your love of the Lord.
I pray for everyone on this board to find Jesus Christ. Hell is a terrible alternative.
This is a 41 year old who has lived an extremely risky and a not very fruitful life. I drank and whored to extremes. But in the past 2 months I found Jesus Christ and my life is more peaceful.
Thanks for listening.

That's awesome.

Flasch186 01-23-2009 10:31 PM

congratulations. Due to the hubris of this board I thought you were going to have some joke regarding an in-game save in madden or such. Congrats on the life changing experience and I hope that you'll improve the lives of others because of it.

JonInMiddleGA 01-23-2009 10:37 PM

Sounds pretty much like the way it's supposed to work ;)

The tricky part seems to be the whole staying in the center of his will thing, to which I can only say that He doesn't move so when we get off course it's a matter of steering ourselves back to that point again. The good news there is that He's happy to help us do that.

Enjoy it, ain't nothing else like it.

Raiders Army 01-23-2009 10:45 PM

Congratulations.

I anticipate this thread moving in a slightly different direction, though. I give it less than 25 posts.

Glengoyne 01-23-2009 10:48 PM

I think I've only done this once before.

What Flasch said.

Congrats.

Karlifornia 01-23-2009 10:48 PM

I found Waldo....I'll settle for that and enjoy being sodomized in hell.

MrDNA 01-23-2009 10:50 PM

So... is this going to effect your gameplanning? If the meek shall inherit the earth, I think that means you have to spot Jacksonville at least one win a year...

If you have a problem simply ignore the thread, it's not that hard.

Congratulations Tarcone, I am happy for you.

Where did I say I have a problem?

Why don't I get the same congratulations for my discovery? I know it says ages 4-6, but we don't all operate the same way.

Then go make your own thread. This one isn't about you.

CraigSca 01-23-2009 11:01 PM

Congrats, Tarcone. I was re-saved about 2 years ago - never looked back.

BYU 14 01-23-2009 11:31 PM

Congrats, finding that balance truly is a great feeling.

Edward64 01-23-2009 11:33 PM

Congratulations in finding the peace.

Not a believer but I'm happy for you and anyone else who finds peace in your faith.

I'm sorry, I couldn't find an in-game save of Madden, but I did find this:

Calvinist - He finds You

Arminian -You find Him



By the way - God bless you, tarcone!! I am so very happy to hear God working in people's lives!!!

You must be a nice quality individual... That SC part of your name must be for South Carolina...

JediKooter 01-24-2009 03:46 AM

As an atheist, it's all about being happy, and if this makes you happy tarcone, then cool.

May the Force be with you

Well..lol...I can't endorse that. I did laugh out loud, but damn.

By the way, I take this to mean tarcone is taking the Cardinals in the Super Bowl.

Looked everywhere for him and then what do you know he was where I'd left him ;)

(more seriously - congrats, regardless of whether people agree with your beliefs of not, you've found something which makes you happy and doesn't hurt others - thats cool in my book :D)

GoldenEagle 01-24-2009 07:19 AM

Congrats on your findings of Jesus.

Ignore the trolls. That should be a Biblical verse.

Wow....just wow.....Honestly what was the thought process of popping into this thread except to be a troll.

Tarcone I am happy for you and glad you were able to bring spirituality back or into your life.

As someone who believes in "God" but struggles with buying in to organized religion, I think this is an interesting question and would love to hear the story.

I'm sad to say I'm not surprised; hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

--break break--

Ironically, yesterday I spent quite a bit of time on this website: Evidence for God from Science

One of my co-workers recommended it and I found it pretty interesting. There were a lot of fallacious arguments, but some of them made good sense.

We actually don't "find" Him (asHe was always there) but we just become a little less lost.

You are so wrong on this, I think you need some advise. If you're driving with the window down and some guy calls you and says he bets a rabbit will piss in you ear, don't take the bet. You'll be out money and have rabbit piss in your ear.

wait, so you don't drink anymore? ooof.

i'm sorry, i don't want to piss on your parade but drinking and whoring sounds like a grand old time to me. if that means i don't go to heaven (which i don't believe in since i don't believe in the hocus pocus of God), then sign me up for hell (which, since i don't believe in heaven also means i don't believe in hell. woo hoo!).

if there is a hell i'm calling dibs on lakefront property. the lake would obviously be a lake of fire and chaos, but hey beggars can't be choosers.


but anyway, whether God exists or not its nice that you chose to take the blue pill and are satisfied with the Matrix. sounds like you'll be a much nicer human and others will respect the life you live. i think its a quaint and remarkable trait that someone can choose to chase the carrot in front of them while others know the carrot doesn't exist.

ISiddiqui 01-24-2009 09:51 AM

I think you can drink (unless you were an alcoholic), because Jesus did turn water into wine.

I consider myself somewhat religous, yet would never be one of those over the top Jesus saved me people.

That being said I am glad you found something that brings you peace and hope it continues to do so.
