Jeremy Myers, i think you are wrong and David is right, so many out there are preaching you can live any way you want and be right that Grace covers any sin, they really
believe that, that is not what the bible says, God was very concerned about sin so much he sent Jesus his son to die on a cross for us, if we accept Jesus as our savor then we are to obey his commandments, not break them, we are to live a righteous and holy life as possible, the bible plainly list a whole list
of things if we live
in will not to to heaven unless we repent, if we die while
in these sins, we will not go to heaven, what is the difference, between someone who said a prayer and someone who did not, and they are living the same way, none, i think, if we are truly saved it should be hard to do these
things let alone live and do them everyday, i would be afraid to tell people that it does not matte grace covers their sins, i really think it is the slip ups that we are convicted
of by the Holy Spirit and we ask for forgivness, how can anyones heart be right with God and they have sex all the time out
of marriage, lie, break every commandment
of God, i don't think this is meaning grace covers those sins, until they repent and ask for forgiveness, a
lot of people will end up
in hell because preachers teach Grace the wrong way,, and those preachers will answer to God for leading these people the wrong way, not saying you are one
of them, but be careful, everything we teach or preach must line up with the word
of God, God hates sin,

of the Americans are
in lost... as most

things become normal when they grow up... like if you go back early nineteen century, women were not allowed to go to beach without being covered... and now it totally opposite... if you do not have a boyfriend or girlfriend before 15, the parents worries that their teenage has some problem... and

things...

A
lot of the rumoured targets / wanted by a
lot of fans targets have failed spectacularly (Martinez, Balotelli, Falcao, Remy, Bony, Gomis) and if Wenger is to invest that heavily
in the striker spot, which i think he will this window, I honestly
believe he wants a sure
thing and
in that there are precious few.
hey nothing against it but dude we can not keep being optimistic when nothing changes when for the longest
of times radical changes are needed at ARSENAL and nothing happens, then optimism is nothing else but denial (and no this is not a river
in Egypt), is the malaise that a
lot of us had / have
believing things were going to be better.
I even thought top clubs were
in for him.Some three or 2 seasons back many here were debating why he should be our main striker.As soon as you mention any other strikers name people would come out with stats and many
things defending him.Even Wenger has defended him blindly
in the past.People say Wenger's stubborn yeah.But don't we know that there's a reason why everything happens?Honestly speaking he's the reason why Arsene Wenger has failed to sign a top notch striker because he still
believes in him.The funny
thing is we signed Welbeck at that time who to me did nothing before to be the main man here.People keep saying Welbeck is hardworking and that he works his socks off.But the question is was that our reason for signing him.Welbeck being signed to challenge Giroud tells me a
lot about Giroud's quality.Even Walcott (no offence to him) who has zero CF qualities was even chosen over him for a string
of games and all
in all I think he did well but has too many defeciencies for that role.We've compromised as a club and it'll come back to bite us.
I share
in your opinion and I
believe he's average and massively overrated like Welbeck.People will bring up the stats but it's a good
thing I've watched him to know how bad he is.We have a
lot of under achievers
in our club.It's one
thing fighting a battle you can win and another fighting a battle you've already lost.Giroud will hardly start over Lacazette and what makes it worse for him is that Laca's French and Wenger loves French players a
lot.Let me give him thumbs up for giving his all and not going down without a fight.I wish more players
in the team had his mentality.

He is not a quality striker because he makes a
lot of mistakes
in his game.The fact that he scores 20 goals does not mean he is a quality back up striker.It is one
thing to be a goal scorer and another
thing to be a good or average player.Goal scoring is a very important aspect
of a player but not the only aspect.Trust me you can score 20 goals
in all competitions and still be average.If Chamakh, Gervinho and all the so called flops scored this same goals they would still have been considered not good enough for Arsenal.His game is just not good enough and I for one
believe even if no one
believes that we can get a backup striker who is better than him and also a top centre forward.Its all about mentality and willingness.Forget his goals and look at his game or else you'll force me to bring up strikers
in the world who have scored his same goals and are even considered terrible.
