Romans 5:6
6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
What an awesome declaration and demonstration of the love God has for ALL of mankind. Romans 5:8 is one of my favorite bible verses.

I don’t even want to tread on their website to see what kind of demonic trash is on it, but suffice it to say, all the news coverage reveals their true colors well. A few months ago in Oklahoma they threatened to show up at a veteran’s funeral, but a counter group of bikers intervened to surround the grieving and hold this angry demonized group at bay. Naturally this wacky church group conveys a picture of a hating God, when God is love and not hate. He even says in His Word he takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, and it is His desire that all come to know Him through Jesus Christ and be with Him for eternity. Like I said, this group is just a dirty agent of satan, to paint an ugly and distorted picture of a most awesome loving God.
Ezekiel 33:11
Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
