tl;dr They're Crazy

The last couple of years, it seems that the majority of "genuine" comments I've received on this blog have been genuinely crazy. Recently, I don't hear anything for weeks, then a gem like this shows up.  Keep in mind, this was a comment left on a post about The Pirate Bay.
"THE TRUTH IS OFFENSIVE!
Some believers in Christ honestly believe that that truth is so offensive that Christians should only proclaim that God is love. Example: Only preach and teach that God loves everyone. Simply repeat John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. (NKJV)
The problem is even John 3:16 offends many people.
Those who reject God's truth find part or all of it offensive.
GOD'S TRUTH THAT OFFENDS
1. Mark 16:16 "He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.(NKJV)
Mark 16:16 offends those who believe that water baptism is not essential for salvation.
2. John 16:23 "And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you.(NKJV) 
John 16:23 offends those who want to pray to the Virgin Mary and other dead saints. 
3. Titus 2:11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men.(NKJV) 
Titus 2:11 offends those who believe God's grace is only offered to a predetermined select few. 
4. Hebrews 6:4-6 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to open shame. (NKJV) 
Hebrews 6:4-6 offend those who believe in once in grace always in grace.


THE NEW COVENANT TERMS FOR PARDON.
1. Faith: John 3:16
2. Confession: Romans 10:9
3. Repentance: Acts 3:19
4. Water Baptism: Acts 2:38 
The terms for pardon offend those who reject the terms. 
GOD LOVES EVERYONE, HOWEVER, SALVATION IS CONDITIONAL."

Huh, that's just creepy ass. I'll leave a sane comment just to break it up!
