As this original post...You're absolutely right. As this original post from years ago stares, the support is awful. Additionally, cancellation requests are confirmed, but then months later they send an account to a collection agency to collect on bonus charges. I think I've had this fine to me 3 times by 1&1, all the times for amounts I didn't owe. I have cancelled all services with the company and will not work with them in the future.Jon the legal immigranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402489935454321005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-28283489939765460112013-02-13T15:50:04.623-07:002013-02-13T15:50:04.623-07:001and1 is by far the worst hosting company on the i...1and1 is by far the worst hosting company on the internet. I'm sorry but they are HUGE scammers. If you are still using them and are happy, well, good for you but wait until you try to cancel. They will auto-renew your domains without asking you. And if the payment doesn't go through they will forward to a collection agency. Do a search for 1and1 hosting review. Other than a few paid bloggers hired to give good reviews, the overwhelming majority of customers or calling them criminals.

I know that you stand strong for God's truth...but you do so with a compassionate heart (seeking to never gossip or cause dissent or division in the Church). I hope those around you take the time to really get to know your heart because they'll truly see a man after God's own heart.christensenlowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533945125683712682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-3862082925891235022010-02-24T12:11:24.295-07:002010-02-24T12:11:24.295-07:00I don't think I was sold a false gospel I was ...I don't think I was sold a false gospel I was sold "fire insurance" or the get out of hell free card.

You can comment by selecting a service to log in through (a Google, OpenID, or AIM account for example) or choose "Name/URL" and just type in your name - I don't think URL is required there.<br /><br />I agree that the Bible is a source of truth. Of course, that's all dependent on how you study the Bible, because all kinds of wrong things have been taught and justified by mishandling of the Bible. The Bible as a source of truth depends on a proper studying (exegesis) of the Bible. Until you've studied it, you don't know what it is. <br /><br />If you don't know what the truth is, you can't apply it to your life (the transition from what's True to what's Right).<br /><br />Is the Bible the only source of truth? <br /><br />Many people say, "All truth is God's truth." While the Bible is true, not everything that's true is in the Bible.<br /><br />That is, logic and reasoning are valid sources of truth as well. Logic and reasoning apply philosophically and practically - detectives use logic and reason to solve crimes, as we should to find out the facts about a situation.<br /><br />The same is true in these situations as well. When you don't even know the facts (what's True), how can you know how to do what's Right?Jon the legal immigranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402489935454321005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-34894555410593907012010-02-19T16:58:03.147-07:002010-02-19T16:58:03.147-07:00Jon
I am posting this as anonymous only because I ...Jon<br />I am posting this as anonymous only because I can't figure out how to post as me (Lori)<br />To answer your questions <br /><br />What is true? <br />The Bible is true. It's a circular argument but we know the Bible is True because it says it is. Also God is true again we know it because He says it. Truth is absolute, it is either true or it isn't.<br /><br />What is the right thing to do?<br />I used to believe the Bible wasn't applicable to my life, however, when as I study more I realize the Bible applies to everything...I've even applied it to LOST :) When I wonder what the "right" thing to do is the Bible has the answer. Several of the "right" things the Bible tells us are: <br />1.believe in Jesus and confess He is Lord.<br />2.Repent our sins and live new lives(if there is no evidence of Jesus in your life go back to #1).<br />3.care for the poor, the widows, and orphans(the world).<br />4.care for the flock (God's people)<br />5.Flee from false teachers and wolves in sheep's clothing (this means we need to evaluate what we are being taught, we need to measure it against God's word)<br />6.Be a light in the darkness(our lives should look different)<br /><br />Jon many people will do wrong simply because it is easy and requires less thought. Doing the right thing may be unpopular(think driving the speed limit at all times), even in the church setting. The right thing will be hard(think marriage vs divorce). There will be a lot of opposition, even from people you once trusted. The right thing may have bad consequences (think about punishing your child).<br /><br />Jon you also mentioned briefly the idea of unity, I hope you go into more detail on this subject, let me just put this out to your readers who believe in unity above all or to keep the peace. The majority of the world is anti-Christian so for peace keeping purposes should we (Christians) unite with the rest the world and denounce Jesus so we can all live in peace?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-89002995893048989282010-02-17T23:14:48.715-07:002010-02-17T23:14:48.715-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07273134518765728802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-33370011116445984942010-02-17T22:29:16.643-07:002010-02-17T22:29:16.643-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Jon the legal immigranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402489935454321005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-69441178372519581002010-02-17T21:05:21.685-07:002010-02-17T21:05:21.685-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07273134518765728802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-67477967927265744242010-02-17T12:01:29.675-07:002010-02-17T12:01:29.675-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-11787488913234415062010-02-17T09:37:35.045-07:002010-02-17T09:37:35.045-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-59019300565388168402010-02-16T23:12:04.732-07:002010-02-16T23:12:04.732-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07273134518765728802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-3051016369903378432010-02-16T17:08:58.627-07:002010-02-16T17:08:58.627-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Jon the legal immigranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402489935454321005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-1143433825710712202010-02-16T14:36:52.639-07:002010-02-16T14:36:52.639-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-5448415028383781422010-02-16T14:23:51.576-07:002010-02-16T14:23:51.576-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-61773762866289829912010-02-16T12:12:39.845-07:002010-02-16T12:12:39.845-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-46947420638297400852010-02-12T15:32:07.983-07:002010-02-12T15:32:07.983-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Jon the legal immigranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402489935454321005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-58687253428038380292010-02-12T15:09:40.055-07:002010-02-12T15:09:40.055-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Jon the legal immigranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402489935454321005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-7431197638219610932010-02-12T15:07:57.520-07:002010-02-12T15:07:57.520-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Jon the legal immigranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402489935454321005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-39079440184410088632010-02-12T14:10:53.625-07:002010-02-12T14:10:53.625-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Paul CPWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06424619679598980476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10012687.post-87429791584707126782010-02-08T16:03:41.136-07:002010-02-08T16:03:41.136-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
