Yes, unrepentant sinners will end up in the lake of fire. But when you think about it, the fact that our prisons are so out of control that there can be Bubba incidents does not speak well of our prisons.

Throughout time God's people have been unjustly incarcerated. The fact that God's people could also be put in danger of rape and murder and assault while unjustly imprisoned is not a pretty thought.

Such atrocities going on in our prisons is just one more thing in this fair land that is inviting God's wrath to fall upon it.

Sometimes God allows "Bubba" incidents to let the perp know the feeling they put their victims in. I for one have no problem with that. Tommy should hope that does meet "bubba". That would not out weigh the agony of spending eternity in hell fire.

It also goes to show that Hardened criminals have more respect for the youth of society than a so called ORDAINED MAN OF GOD!

Even though God allows those who commit vile iniquity to be the victims of vile iniquity, I don't think we should want more vile iniquity to occur in this world. We are supposed to pray, "Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." We are supposed to want the end of all vile iniquity, not the commission of more vile acts.

So Bubba asks Tommy...

"Do you enjoy golf?"

Tommy replies... "Well, sure, I have to say it's my favorite sport."

Bubba laughs... "Then you'll really like Mondays. We got a driving range and a 9-par course that the block gets all day Monday."

Clearly, I would need your definition of VILE INIQUITY as defined in the comment "We are supposed to want the end of all vile iniquity, not the commission of more vile acts."

I have said repeatedly how such talk makes me feel, yet it continues. Perhaps it is time for me to make my exit.

I have not posted over here for quite some time. As a victim as well I agree with Duane. While I agree with the reason's of your anger; I calmly ask that we lay it at the feet of Jesus. He is the Alpha and Omega and the judge. His justice does is more sovereign and better suited than that of {bubba} or any other man made assault!

Thank you and God Bless!

I was specifically referring to rape within prisons.

Bubba's being given a bad rap... All we know about him is that he's in prison and he likes to play golf...   ;D

This topic has NO humor in it.  Let's please stop this rabbit trail.

I second that Amen!
  • Let's turn our focus on praying for Judge Randy Bellows to make a God honoring and fearing decision on Friday.
  • Let's pray that Alex and the other gentleman feel that the decision to come forward was one that was worth it no matter what the judge rules and that they feel no shame.
  • Let's pray that Tommy feels the full weight of what he has done over the years and that he truly repents and makes himself accountable to a God fearing person everywhere he goes.  ["...repent and turn to God and prove their repentance by their deeds." Acts 26:20]
  • Let's pray that all of the other abuse victims know that they are sons of God no matter the outcome and that they come forward and take a stand against the unjust abuse that has happened to them, along with the brave ones that have already came forward.
  • Let's pray for the countless others that Tommy may not have physically abused, but groomed them by using scriptures and inappropriate comments to try to prove that his twisted and perverted view of men is correct, in order to ultimately abuse them. (How many has he used the relationship of David and Jonathan to try to convice them that men should be more intimate and that they should allow him, a "prophet of God," to experiment with them?)
  • More than anything, let's pray that God's sovereignty be magnified in VA, IL and to the ends of the earth!

ADMIN NOTE:

I just posted this in another thread, but I see the same issues here.  This is absolutely disgusting.  There will be no more Bubba jokes, horsethief.  And tinka, there will be no more of these comments - "you got a french fry freek, a spike and Betty Boopsie Tootsie and a cloned Fawsett".  If you have something constructive to add to the discussion then by all means, post it.  But if all you have to add is an ugly, degrading joke or a poke at someone's appearance then keep it to yourself!!!




ADMIN NOTE:

I don't read here as often as I used to.  But recently as I have been catching up on new posts, I am struck by the lows our forum has sunk to.  Can't we discuss the issues respectfully with each other without resorting to making fun of people's appearances and wondering how Tommy and Bubba will get along together?  Good grief.

Our Creator hates the sin but loves the sinner.  Shouldn't we strive to do the same?
