Hi Marlene and Richard,
I am saying nothing of myself, here is what Ray using the Scriptures as basis says:
Read: http://forums.bible-truths.com/index.php/topic,3709.0.html
Remember when you read: Scripture is written to address; What was, What Is Now and What is to Come,
(All Scripture). I read and reread Rays papers, listen on cd daily and watch the videos when possible.
Every reading shows me how far the gulf is between Jesus Christ Love and my love is and i Pray The Lord
to Carry me across. If you can picture stepping on a rake and getting smacked in the face with the handle;
that is mild compared to being confronted with our Lord and Saviour and His Love for Humanity.
In Love and Enlightenment,
george.

Richard regarding the rapist...you do what Ray says....You always do what is right . You do not judge the person but his actions or words.
The tree of good and evil has you sitting in the judgement seat for that person. The tree of Life has Chirst sitting there and He is in you and that helps you to discern the actions and words and compare them to what God says is Good and Evil in His Word.
(Joh 7:24) "Stop judging according to appearance, _but_ be judging the righteous judgment."
(Psa 119:165) Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them. Right on Akira ;D
On a day to day basis we can only judge ourselves because we know how we think and why we think the way we do. We cannot see that in the other person only God can, and that person is in the state he is in because that is where God has him at the momment...you do not know when He is going to drag him to Jesus. You have no right to judge him
Rom 14:4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
It is Christ that removes the log not you. With a log in your eye you can not see the things of God
In olden days they thought that the eye was the source of the light, and that enabled you to see.
Mat 6:23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
People of the world do not see that they are in darknesss
Jer 13:16 Give glory to the LORD your God, before he cause darkness, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains, and, while ye look for light, he turn it into the shadow of death, and make it gross darkness.
Eph 5:8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

Richard,
Other than when The Hour was come for Jesus To Finish What He Came To Earth To Do; how did Jesus handle evil when confronted by it?.
1. Demons
2. Scribes and Pharisees
3. Satan
4. Money changers
He did not have to make decisions, He called it for what it was. This was always to address
evil, not the blinded masses.
Eph_6:12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against
the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.

Richard D:
Amrbrasach.
That’s exactly my point every person judges others everyday no matter what. What I’m saying is this. If I judge myself better than another person I’m sinning as a result of that judgment. If I steal or am a thief and condemn anyone for stealing then I condemn myself also because I do the same thing.
But if I judge another as to what they are doing as being either right or wrong then there is nothing wrong with my judgment.
If I pass judgment on the person themselves I could be wrong because I don’t know the motive of that ones heart only God knows the motive of peoples hearts we don’t.
I think maybe sometimes we read what Ray says and take it out of context. Just because I know there is no hell does not make me better or more righteous than one who believes in hell.
One thing I know for sure and that even the elect of God are not righteous in themselves nor are they perfect in themselves. As much as I would like to be perfect I will not be until after the resurrection.
So maybe today I don’t do something that was sinful that I did yesterday but today God still has His work cut out with me and tomorrow will be the same as long as I’m being made into the image of God I’ am not perfected only being perfected but I have not achieved perfection yet.
I pass judgment all the time but I do not judge myself better than anyone else because I know if I’ am doing that which is right it’s only because of the grace of God. That’s what I mean. :)
In God’s love. Richard.
