On whether I want them to go to hell or not
Stay away from Californians
I posted the following on Facebook this year and, if I remember correctly, it was during the illegal alien riots.
I have not talked about the other thieves before: a stranger who absconded with my iPad while I was giving him many of my old belongings and a room renter recommended to me by some of my relatives(!) She skipped two months of rent; that money was intended to keep my car from being repossessed. Yes, that car.
This year I’ve had three more injuries to my present car.
I should hate people, but I don’t.
That guy I told you about last week is among the number mentioned. As I’ve already said, he has started paying me back and has promised to pay on the first of every month. I will still send him an invoice because he has already shown that his promises are worthless.
If he had not begged me to take out a loan on my old car, then disappeared and then had his girlfriend tell me to not contact him, I would have let this go.
Many have urged me to republish the post in which I gave his identity details, but I took it down because my purpose was not to ruin him - to seek revenge - but to make it worth his while to pay. So I won’t put the post back up at this point. But I will send him a copy of it, should he fall behind.
He pretended to be a Christian back when we were “friends” and maybe he’s had a true conversion now. But I will pray for his salvation anyway. Hers, too.
There are no people of my acquaintance who I hope end up in Hell. However, I can honestly say I was indifferent to the fate of his soul and that of his ex-girlfriend.
I still am a little.
And I don’t think that’s the right attitude to have for my own soul because it is in disagreement with God’s will.
“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is long suffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
- 2 Peter 3:9 KJV
Therefore, I’m praying for the thief and the obliviot for selfish reasons and I’m good with it. Thankful even!
By the way, I love you, faithful readers.
