this was one of my answers to my question about becoming an atheist since i pray and pray for God to make me skinny....i guess this is "what i get" for making a joke! :o(
"If you base being a child of God on getting everything you ask for, then you're not! And if you truly have tasted how sweet it is to be His child and still you can walk away, you were never a christian to begin with!!"
i am totally speechless....

People suck. What can I say? Some folks on here just don't have a sense of humor. I can personally attest to that. They reported me too many times for making stupid jokes. Deleted my account. Bastards!!!

Let me ask you this: have you been a faithful Christian? If you feel that you have, then you should know that God answers prayers in His own way and in His own time. Also, are you asking in a right motive?
If you haven't been a faithful Christian, then you have to realize that God is not a genie to perform and grant your wishes whenever you think He should help you.
Before you give up on God, perhaps you should look at, not your outer self, which means little to Him, but your inner self and what your relationship truly is with God.
And remember, if you give yourself to Him and His will, you're beautiful in His eyes.
Keep praying and making your own effort. Maybe God wants you to work on your perseverance.
I too, am over-weight. But I know that God will not forsake me in what truly matters: His promise of salvation.
God Bless

wow talk about Judging someone when us as christians aren't supposed to ... maybe they should re-examine their heart and not be so rash and show some mercy and grace they may " need " It some day . some people Just don't have a sense of humor anymore I think when we become christains sometimes we become serious and lose our sense of humor ....It's that simple .

Christians, in between whining, love to tell people that they are going to hell, as if they were the judge, and love to claim that others are not as christian as they are. So what else is new.

That was a great answer for your misguided concept. This person answered your question. How could they know if it was a joke or not?
