A Hard Days Night

I have just realized that by Jupiter's Name,  A LOT of people don't like me. I just found out about a conspiracy against me, of course it did not work or else I would be speaking from the Elysian Fields. Once I found out I put to death all the people that had a part in the conspiracy. The people that took place in the conspiracy were put to death with out a trial, not that there had to be one, I know everyone who took place in the Pisonian Conspiracy. I can't let anything like this happen again, and I fear it will, because the treasury is going down, things are not looking well for Rome.

  3. By golly it's about time. Did you honestly believe that after the great fire many people still supported you? I mean, even though the Roman people embraced your false blame that us Christians started the fire, you must have realized that your popularity was going to plummit. So many Roman people, like grain merchants, have been hurt by this fire and yet you have done nothing about it.
    But, there is still time to repent. Pray to God and accept his son Jesus into your life. You will be forever changed, and although people may still dislike you it will be worth it. No matter how many people hate or dislike you, Jesus loves you. He has, does, and always will.
    John 3:16-17- For God so loved the world that he sent his one and only son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life. For the Lord did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

  4. An odd turn of events, wouldn't you think? Yet I'm sure you had this coming for you. But I must agree with Julia. And do not forget, "Grief has limits, whereas apprehension has none. For we grieve only for what we know has happened, but we fear all that possibly may happen."

  5. Julia beat me to it. I couldn't have said it any better than she did. You got what you had coming for you, and it didn't feel to good, did it? I have told you this repeatedly, and I will tell you again: I don't know if you can easily mend the damage that has been done, but you should try. Repent of your evil ways, and turn towards Christ. You may have offended many, many Christians, but so did Paul before he converted. Yet when he did convert, he became one of the most influential men in Christianity. Don't you see? He was FORGIVEN and ACCEPTED. If you change, you will be too.
