Hello, thank you for your response. I just would like to append
further assertions. Based on your stark reluctance to tackle any of my
theological challenges, it is considered an implicit defeatism for
your camp. Protestants are not more than mere servants to Zionism. And
as for your Christology devotion, it is considerably undistinguished.
Your endorsement to the apartheid Zionist state is intrinsically
inalienable. Thence, our duty is to incessantly engage with you in
relentless combat missions until your party is perfectly discomfited.
Your ministry doesn’t base its tenets on nothing but an oblique hope
of a theoretical scheme of salvation. The assumption that someone
could have died for your sin is substantially Laputan and
consequently, it is unlikely to be rectifiable. In Trump’s damnable
era, your state of dismay has just started. Americanisation is quite
fragile and its global leadership is about to diminish. Your oval
office is rotten to the core. Jews have constantly been dominating
your denomination since Martin Luther era and even earlier to that
time. There are many Muslims whom I knew have abandoned Islam to
Christianity. Nevertheless, I never fathomed the relationship between
becoming Christian, residing in the States and endorsing Zionists. I
wish you have got sufficient courage to tackle this challenge in the
slightest. I urge you to ponder properly on what I proposed. If you
ever perceived the demand to clarify what might be vague to you,
kindly, keep me notified. Best wishes, Bob
