    The Most Evil Religion Of All Is Nationalism
    Photobucket
    Nationalism is a far more harmful and dangerous religion than Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, Paganism, Satanism, Atheism, or Darwinism.

    Hi Matthew,
    Thank you for your Harmless As Doves page and site.
    In a time when the majority of "Christians" support, glorify, and engage in war and nationalism,
    your message of Peace, Love, and Jesus stands out like a candle in a dark room. Peace and Maranatha brother.

    To: YOU

    Date: TODAY
    From: GOD
    Subject: YOURSELF
    Reference: LIFE

    This is God. Today, I will be handling all of your problems for you. I do not need your help. So, have a nice day.

    I love you.


    P.S. And, remember...
    If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot handle, do not attempt to resolve it yourself! Kindly put it in the SFGTD (something for God to do) box. I will get to it in MY TIME. All situations will be resolved, but in My time, not yours.



    Once the matter is placed into the box, do not hold on to it by worrying about it. Instead, focus on all the wonderful things that are present in your life now.




    Should you decide to send this to a friend, thank you.
    You may have touched their life in ways you will never know!

    Now, you have a nice day.

    God



    God has seen you struggling,
    God says it's over.

    A blessing is coming your way. If you believe in God, please send to ten people (including me). Please don't ignore this.

    You are being tested.


    YOU HAVE 20 MINUTES TO TELL 10 FRIENDS THAT YOU LOVE THEM (INCLUDING ME) SO I LOVE YOU! GO!

    1 Corinthians 13:13
    But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.


    Matthew 5:43-45
    "You have heard that it was said, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR and hate your enemy.
    '
    "But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
    so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.


    Luke 6:27-28
    "But I say to you who hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
    bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.


    Luke 6:34-36
    "If you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners in order to receive back the same amount.

    "But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He Himself is kind to ungrateful and evil men.

    "Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.


    Matthew 5:9
    Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.



    I pray you are blessed in all you do for the glory of Christ
