Christ carried man's entire load, and his sacrifice relieved his "chosen few" of any trace of 'sin'. Boxcar is one of the chosen few, and he has nothing to worry about for all eternity...including this unnecessary and misguided nonsense about "imitating the life of Christ".
This is how warped this man's religious beliefs are...and yet he has the balls to come here and mock the religious beliefs of others. When a man like Boxcar comes here and proclaims to be one of "God's chosen few"...this is a bigger act of "blasphemy" than any anti-God declaration that any atheist can make. Because the atheist only denies the existence of God...while Boxcar willingly distorts God's message. The "wolf in sheep's clothing"...that Christ warned people about.  |
You misrepresent what I have often said. I have said spiritually dead men can do nothing to please God. But those who have been born again, thereby being raised to life from their dark, spiritual tombs, can do ALL things through Christ Jesus.
You see...it is you who distort God's message by lying about what I have consistently said.

Your bullshit knows no bounds. You are a fraud, pal...and any "spiritually alive" person here can see it. It is only the "spiritually dead" that your bullshit can possibly attract.
And my money says that you also can't handicap your way out of a wet paper bag. You are a FRAUD...ALL the way around.

That's just it: There are very, very few spiritually alive people around here -- at least participating in this thread. And if there were degrees of death, I'd say you'd be at the bottom of the heap. After all, you, at one time were the uncontested, undisputed champion of the Arguments from Silence fallacy, clearing proving that not all your wires are connected.

I can handicap, though. And I am itching to prove it.

By your own words in this post, you will now learn what humility truly means, since you haven't a clue.
You are a foolish man Boxcar, you'll just have to learn the hard way.

What will be finished first?
Boxcar's software?
Or 46zilzal's book on D. Wayne Lukas?

Humility does not fulfill the Law of God. Love does. Love,therefore, is the greatest of all virtues. Not my opinion either. Scripture says so.

Actually my buddy's program is finished, and has been for quite awhile. But I have other pressing matters to attend to, and handicapping horse races is not one of them.

See my reply to PA.
But yeah...I think you could be in the market for some of that stuff. Just read the label very carefully and apply it to the appropriate area.

I haven't seen so many snoozies since Hcap's departure. You're not related to him by chance, are you?

Yes...you have "other pressing matters to attend to". I can tell by the avalanche of threads that you have started here over the last few months.
But I don't blame you for avoiding me, Boxcar. Tangling with me in a handicapping way can be a very humbling experience for my opponent...and you clearly want nothing to do with "humility".

Starting threads is far less demanding on my time than handicapping a card of races.
