The don't intend to DEEPLY offend me with, "Do you profess Jesus as your Savior?"

"Are you Saved?"
"Do you profess Jesus as your Savior?" is DEEPLY, DEEPLY, DEEPLY offensive to me. 
THEY DON'T INTEND OT OFFEND ME when so often the visitors ask. 
But to me it is repugnant, vile, hideous subversion of my beloved Jesus' Teachings.

They NEVER ask (NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER....)

*  Do you love your brother as yourself?
*  Do you do unto the poor as you would have them do unto you?
*  Do you lay down your life for the sheep?
*  Do you pick up your cross every day?
*  Do you devote your life to the least of these?
*  Do you love Our Father with your whole heart, soul, mind?
*  Do you lead the children rightly?
*  Etc.
*  Etc.
*  Etc.

"Each day now for years I've chosen death, and received Life." SL

It is incomprehensible to me that I will EVER divert one second from my
attempts to spark the re-birth of Humanity, not were it to cost me my
life.  Isn't that strange?  I find it strange.  And I find it incomprehensible
that I'll ever divert energy away from Our Neediest Family, 
to my own survival, not for a second, not tho it cost my pulse.  It's been this way for
me for many years now.  Every waking second my choice has given me Life,
and as an added bonus, pulse too, so far.

Romans 13:8
"Owe nothing to anyone, except to love one another;
for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law."

:-) I practically NEVER allow myself any words in the Bible besides those of Jesus.
Other than Jesus words I find the Bible a toxic minefield of hate, evil, error....
This is one of only 3 verses I can think of that I allow myself as an exception - and
also 1 Corr. 13, "Without Love, it is NOTHING...," and
I John Ch2: "Whoever claims to abide in Jesus aught to live just
like Jesus lived." It was about 9 years ago, I was sitting in a cheap cafe in blighted ...

"Few people chose war (WWII).  They chose SELFISHNESS
and the result was war."  David Dellinger

The above struck me when I was reading Isaiah this morning - the part about
turning "swords into plowshares."  THIS IS WRONG - INCORRECT -
SUBOPTIMAL AS A FOCUS.  Oh sure, if your loved one is burning up
from fever, get their temperature down - turn swords into.... BUT YOU BETTER TREAT THE
ROOT CAUSE, OR THEY'LL DIE. 

Lovelessness is the root cause.  YOUR DEVOTION TO THE NEEDY IN OUR GLOBAL FAMILY -
THE ONLY CURE.

SWORDS INTO PLOWSHARES - WILL ONLY COME ABOUT THIS WAY.
