Nebraska state senator sues God

[gzusrulzme]

didn't his mama ever take him to sunday school?:doh geesh. seriously, suing the Lord Almighty is overkill. He must have some wicked anger inside of him to do such a thing. I would be scared to be in the same room with this man alone......:fear

got this in email from Liveprayer responding to Chambers and his lawusit and felt like posting it here:


Ernie Chambers: The fool says there is no God, so what does that make the guy who sues God?

The fool says there is no God, so what does that make the guy who sues God?

Last Friday, Nebraska state senator Ernie Chambers

who skips morning prayers during the legislative session and often criticizes Christians,

filed a lawsuit against God for causing "calamitous catastrophes resulting in the wide-spread death, destruction and terrorization of millions upon millions of the Earth's inhabitants."

The Psalmist wrote, "The fool says in his heart, 'There is no God.' " If saying there is no God makes you a fool, suing God has got to put you in you own special category!

You will make many big decisions throughout your life.

Hopefully, suing the Almighty is not one of those decisions. Where you will go to college, what career you will have, who you will marry, having children, are a few major decisions you will be making during the course of your life.

You also have to come to a place where you either believe in God, or like the fool, says there is no God.

There is no decision that you will make during your life greater than where you will spend eternity when this brief life is over.


The Bible teaches us that tomorrow is promised to none of us and that each day is a gift from God. When you die, your body will go back to the dust of the earth as God mandated, but your soul, the part of man made in God's image is eternal.

Where your soul spends eternity is a choice each individual who lives will make during their life.

It is God's desire that ALL come to repentance and none be lost.

He sent His Son Jesus to die for the sins of all mankind so that thru faith in Jesus man

could be reconciled back to God and have the assurance of everlasting life with his Creator.

My friend, nobody who is honest will dispute that they will die one day, and nobody who is honest will dispute they commit sin.

We ALL sin and fall short of God's glory and it is our sin that separates us from a holy God.

GOD LOVES YOU!

He is willing to forgive you of your sins if you will simply ask Him.

There is nothing you have done in your life that God won't forgive you for if you ask Him.


He does not want to see your soul perish for eternity, but wants you to spend your eternity with Him.

Please, take a few moments, the most important few moments you will ever spend and read the following few paragraphs.

These words can literally change you for all eternity. I am praying for you!



For God so loved the world, HE GAVE.

Because of this gift from God, we can be forgiven of our sins and reunited with our Creator for eternity.

So much of what I deal with each day in this Devotional is to help you walk through this short journey here on earth victoriously and productively.

But we must never forget that our time here is very short, and there is an eternity waiting for us when this journey is completed.

I want to focus for just a minute on this most special day, to that split second when our life on this earth is finished and we are launched into eternity.

Do you have the assurance this very moment that when your life is complete, your eternity is going to be spent in Heaven with God your Creator?

If the answer to that question is anything but a resounding YES,

then let me just share this simple truth with you. You see, our God, our Creator so loved this world, so loved His creation, that He sent His Son, His only Son to be part of this world.

Jesus had one mission in this life. It wasn't to be a great teacher, though He was a great teacher.

It wasn't to be a great prophet, though He was a great prophet.

It wasn't to be a great miracle worker, though He did work many great miracles.

No my friend, Jesus came to this world to perform only one job...to die.


You see, the reason it was vital for Jesus to be immaculately conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin was so that He was not infested with the same problem you and I are born into this life with, sin.

Otherwise, the best He could have done was to die for His own sins.


Jesus lived on this earth for some 33 years before it was time to complete His work.

That work was finished on a cross on the hill called Calvary where He hung, and then died as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of this world.

That is why, whosoever believes in Jesus, shall not perish, but have everlasting life!

Believing in Jesus is the only way to be saved because it was Jesus who died for our sins.

There are no other ways to be saved, no other roads to God,

there are no other plans of salvation!!!

This is God's one and only plan to reconcile His fallen creation back to Himself.

This is the only way that you can escape eternity apart from the God who created you in His own image.

It is through His grace and by your faith in Jesus Christ!

There are many incredible mysteries in the Bible.

There are many doctrinal issues that will never be fully understood until we are in Heaven.

But God made the most important decision of this life very easy and simple to understand.

He gave every one the same opportunity to have their sins washed away and be assured of an eternity in Heaven.


That is why we put our faith and trust in Jesus Christ.

The most important decision you will make in this life is not who you will marry, or where you will live, or what kind of job you will have.

The most important decision you will make in this life is to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior.

If you have not done that yet, the Bible says that TODAY is the day of salvation.

I would invite you to go to, http://www.liveprayer.com/bdy_salvatn.cfm

Pray to ask God to open your heart, watch the special "Altar Call" video, read the words, pray the prayer, and accept today God's gift to you the gift of everlasting life through faith in His son Jesus.

I love you and care about you deeply.

For those of you who already know Christ as your Savior, I would encourage you to forward this email to someone that you know who is lost and without hope today.

What better present to give someone than the opportunity to know Jesus as their Savior and God's free gift of everlasting life.

I pray that you will take time today to focus on the gift that God has given to us in His Son Jesus. He gave His very best gift to us,

which is why I will continue to encourage you each day to give your very best to Him.


In His love and service, Your friend and brother in Christ, Bill Keller

Remember the AC wants no competition,
so discredit persicute real christians,

then do amazing false miracles and claim to be the real god.
That's what the false prophet will do.

I always pictured some well meaning guy trying to lead the world out of chaos and gets shot in the head and dies. The AC comes (satan) and animates the dead body and rules in his stead. The false prophet does some really impressive stuff to fool everyone into believing the ac is God. and The ac takes credit for the rapture and claims to have eliminated the only opposition to his finally being able to help the earth. His good deeds are only thwarted by "christians" so people hunt them down to aviod the heavenly judgement supposedly being brought by the ac.

Just an opinion but I see the ac usurping God at every turn. Taking credit, and glory that is God's alone and ascribing it to himself.

If it wern't for the 144000, there would be no truth left on the earth, and it is clear they will be divinely protected and bear witness in that some will believe.

A legislator who filed a lawsuit against God has gotten something he might not have expected: a response.

One of two court filings from “God” came Wednesday under otherworldly circumstances, according to John Friend, clerk of the Douglas County District Court in Omaha.

“This one miraculously appeared on the counter. It just all of a sudden was here — poof!” Friend said.

Amazing ego alright, but also total stupidity of the judge allowing this to go to court. He should be fired just for considering this.dont you just love where american's tax dollars go? Give me a break.

He notes that the U.S. government — and by extension, its courts — takes notice of the Almighty by printing "In God We Trust" on currency and in a variety of other ways.



So apparently God must have a good reputation since the government thinks He is so trustworthy. How could the court rule against Him? :rolleyes
