That's between you and God. And I have no plans to get in the way. If you're reading because you have a moment of positive volition... I know it doesn't depend on me. I know that God will honor your positive volition. And I know that the information—that you need—will get to you. One way or the other. And it doesn't depend on me. It depends on the grace of God. And I'm grateful for that.
If you're reading because you want to start trouble... conflict... controversy. That's fine too. See: God will use that as FTX's [spiritual field training exercises] in my life—and the life of my family. It's just another opportunity to depend on His grace. His provision. To be occupied with The Lord Jesus Christ—not preoccupied with people.
Either way: it's blessing. And I am thankful for the opportunity to apply God's Word under times of extreme pressure.
Client - You cursed at me and lied to me.
Horton - I'm not sure what has happened in your life to make you so miserable. So hard. So jaded. To have so much hate and animosity. I can only imagine...
And I hurt for you. I really do. Because I've never seen someone so eaten up—like a cancer—with such bitterness. And, I guess that's why you paint your face up—with makeup and a happy face—to hide the pain that you're really in. Being a clown allows you to be someone else—at least temporarily. It's a way to escape.
To hide from the torment and turmoil that you're in. And, yes, you are in it.
No, using the word 'shit' is not cursing at you. But. Even if I had... it probably would have been extremely beneficial for you. I'm sure you're used to running all over men. You seem to be a bit of a termagant. Or, in the common vernacular: a real ball buster.
You probably just aren't used to a man standing up to you. And telling you, “No.” Perhaps you have me mixed up with some of the effeminate creatures that you hang around with--and are used to dominating by manipulation or tantrums...
Well, you won't dictate to me. Period. And I made it very clear. Furthermore, I never lied to you. I just told you things you didn't like hearing. There's a difference. But. I do stipulate that you're being lied to. However, it's only you lying to yourself. Repeatedly.
Client - You and your wife delayed the sale of my house.
Horton - If believing your delusions makes you happy.... believe them. Tell them to people (or rather: continue to tell them to people). Please! Keep that sort of ignorant riffraff away from us. You're doing us a favor. Be loud and proud.
Take out a full page ad on the AJC if you want... if that's what makes you 'happy.... Have at it.
Our lives in the Lord's hands. He provides logistical grace to us. Not you. Not others. Besides... It won't change the facts. You sold your home—with another agent--for about $40,000 less than my wife sold a comparable home for. And it won't change the fact that you paid nearly twice as much—to that agent—to do it. And it won't change the facts that my wife—consistently gets people higher prices for less money [commission].
Now, I'm not saying you're stupid. I'm not saying that others are either. But. I'm just saying, “one of us is!” And it isn't me. And it isn't Jess. So, you figure it out.
Client - You are a hypocrite and a wanna be Christian.
Horton - I am a Christian because: I believe In the Lord Jesus Christ, Susan. I believe that He is the God-Man Savior. The Unique person of the universe. The ONLY person ever qualified to hang—on the cross—between heaven and earth and be our mediator with a Holy God. I believe that The Lord Jesus Christ paid the ultimate price: a substitutionary spiritual death and because of that: God has been propitiated. And I have been reconciled.
It has NOTHING to do with me. It has everything to do with the GRACE of God.
I am nothing.
He is everything.
And you know what? Salvation is available to you as well. All you have to do is believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. Who He is and what He did. He died for you. He died for me. He died for us all. And there is no other name by which we can be saved. Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Grow in Grace [orientation] and Knowledge [Doctrinal Orientation] of Him. However, I urge you (and I doubt that you'll listen—you do tend to be a bit hardheaded. That's okay. I was too. Very. But. God got my attention).... be very careful. Standing between the Lord Jesus Christ and His man [communicator of doctrine] is not the smartest idea.
When I get out of line... God deals with me. Harshly—at times. But. You (and others) would be way better off letting Him handle me. For my 'sins'. Real and imagined... A very dangerous place to be. Putting yourself in the place of the Lord Jesus Christ. Trying to do His job for Him.
If you feel that you've been wronged... I encourage you (if you're a believer—if not: I encourage you to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ!).... any way, I encourage you to put it in the supreme court of heavens hands. However, you elected not to do that...
You elected to go online and try and destroy my wife, myself and my family. You elected to peddle your vituperation and vindictiveness to people through various social medias, websites and other methods—including in person.
And you threatened her—on numerous occasions. And when you tried to blackmail Jess into releasing you from your contract... by threatening to turn her into the Georgia Real Estate commission, what did she tell you: “Do your worst. I am confident in their [the commission] ability to get to the facts. FACTS. And I submit myself—completely--to their authority.”
And that's exactly what she did.
And that's exactly what they did. They got to the facts. And I bet that just chaps your bottom. But. Normal, sane and rational people don't rely on second-hand information. Information without proper jurisprudence. Rules of evidence. Sworn testimony. The ability to call witnesses and present actual evidence.
Cowards? Cowards run online and start slinging their hate and bitterness like bullets in the wild, wild, west. No rules. Just shoot! And keep on shooting!!!
And you know what?
That's on you. That's on other people. That's a matter of your integrity... it's a reflection of the condition of your soul. It has nothing to do with me. It has nothing to with Jess. Your actions are a reflection of: you. You own them.
Client - Unless you live the Word, your writing of the Word will always be empty.
Horton - Sadly, like so many 'religious' believers (and mixed up unbelievers) you have no true understanding of how God's Word works. God's Word NEVER goes out empty. It ALWAYS accomplishes His purpose. His plan.
You're validating the faithfulness of God—to me—and you don't even see it. You're blind to it—completely.
And I hate that. I really do. I pity you. Because I know: you've fallen for a lie. Several of them. And they hold you captive. You are more of a prisoner than I ever was—while incarcerated.
But. I also know: God never stops chasing us with His KESSID [unfailing love]. And He will pursue you with an aggressiveness. Think about how you stalk my wife and I....to hurt... to injure... to destroy...well, God chases after you to heal you.... to transform you... to liberate you and set you free. He never stops chasing after you.
But. The more you say, “NO!” the more scar tissue you put on your soul. The more your heart is hardened. The more the matatiotes opens up... the more darkness it sucks in. That's your choice. You make it.
Client - Apparently you and your wife wronged a war vet before you moved south.
The only war he's a 'veteran' of: the war of words that he started online. It takes a real brave man to go online and attack a lady. A real brave one. But that's what cowards do. They go online—anonymously—and present faulty information. Half-truths. Lies. Innuendo.
They sensationalize things to make themselves look like victims. They try and cause strife by controversializing the object of their scorn... making them so 'hot' and 'toxic' that no one wants to be near them... around them... to do business with them.... it's a form of cyber terrorism.
Someone is going to cry about losing $20,000.00 (which is a completely ridiculous—and made up amount) because Jess and I LAWFULLY terminated our lease and forfeited our security deposit? This is an untrue statement - mwc
When they told us “Make sure you're out of my home before my plane lands.” - This is a bald faced lie, a total fabrication, show me the email - mwc
But. They conveniently forget about that part. They fail to mention that. They fail to mention a lot of things. They just tell their little sob stories.... and whine... and pout... and moan... bitch... and cry...

Michael:
My last e-mail clearly stated for you to come up with compensation and we can work out a payment plan (Lie). Did you do that? Did you e-mail what you were thinking? No, you launched off on a rant and I am sure you will continue to do so. It was the weekend and I was with my kids. I responded first thing Monday morning. Not sure that I can be much more accomidating.
The condition of the home was documented by me and a third party upon moving in and leaving. Pictures were also taken. My third party is beyond reproach and will be believed (Lie).
Go, build your little web site and say whatever you want about me. It will continue to build and establish my case if it comes to that. I don't go around suing people. However, I don't back down from a fight either. So, we can either work this out like calm, rational, adults or you can bray like a jackass. That is your choice.
Jessica Horton
(does this sound like the lease was "legally terminated"? Or does it sound like they owe me money, and an amount (20k) was agreed upon?)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Rant continued)
Horton - There's a word for that, but I will use: pusillanimous instead.
Meanwhile, my wife has people that owe her 10 times that amount of money—right now. 20 times that amount. Builders and developers who are gearing back up. And we'll never see a penny of it.
Hundreds and Hundreds of thousands of dollars.
And you know what? That's okay. That's on them. We put it in the Lord's hands and moved on. We let it go. It doesn't eat us up. It doesn't consume us. We aren't trapped in a prison—in our souls—of hate and bitterness. Animosity. Crying about what is owed to us. How unfairly we've been treated by others.
We let it go. Because we know what God's Word says, “All our needs (not: wants!) will be met according to the riches and glory of Christ Jesus.”
This man went and made hundreds of thousands of dollars as a civilian contractor in a war zone... He's alive... He's breathing... He's been taken care of—every step of the way... The Grace of God preserved him in a hostile environment---whether He understands that grace or not. He has a family. A home to go back home to. But. He's still not happy. He's still not thankful. He's still not grateful. He's still not the least bit compassionate.
And you know what? I doubt that He ever will be. - So if you make money, there's no reason for the Horton's to pay you what they owe you? - mwc
Miserable people only know how to be miserable. And it also loves company. So, I'm not the least bit surprised that you both found each other.
Client - This guy has been in contact with all of us in scp who suffered at the hands of you and your wife.
Horton - Again, I'm not responsible for the actions of other people, Susan. What they do (or don't do) is a reflection of who and what they are. My life depends on The Lord. Not people.
Client - This gentleman is intent on bringing an end to your business. he doesn't seem interested in letting it go.
Horton - ”No weapon formed against me shall prosper”, Susan. Now this doesn't mean that we won't lose business. This doesn't mean that we won't take our lumps. Our kicks. Our punches. Our insults. Our being mocked. Scorned. Shunned. I'm sure we will. I know we have. Plenty.
And I also know something else: “God's grace is still sufficient for our every need.” THAT is what “no weapon formed against me shall prosper” means. It means: When we Orient to God's grace and Word... everything that comes our way advances His plan—not ours!--for our life. It brings victory in the soul when we apply Bible Doctrine in our lives and depend on Him.
And what you (and others) may view as setbacks... defeats... losing... it's the very things that God will use to get us where we need to be. In front of the people we need to see. Victory is in the soul. And our souls are intact. Our souls are filled with doctrine.
You and the others.... you can do nothing to me—and my family—that MY GOD doesn't allow through His Permissive Will. I'm in good hands. The very best hands. And He never lets go. Never. Not even for a second.
Client - It is biblical.................you reap what you sow.
Horton - We all do. It's called: “The Law of Volitional Responsibility.” Our bad decisions limit future options. But. Nothing can limit the grace of God in our lives. And I'm so thankful for it. So very thankful. Because I deserve nothing. But. Yet. I have everything. I have Him. I have His Doctrines.
It's my prayer that you know what that's like—one day. All of you. Because you're miserable. You're miserable and pathetic. But. You know what? So was I. So am I. And, yet, His grace still takes care of me.
I have Him. You can have Him also. Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. And then: Grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
That's the only way you will ever know true happiness. Lasting happiness. Meaningful happiness. Eternal happiness. We pray you find it. In closing, thank you for this wonderful opportunity to apply Bible Doctrine in our lives. HE sustains us. Not us. Not our abilities. Him.
And we understand: ultimately, you don't know what you're doing. And to whom you're really attacking. We pray that your eyes will be opened. Because you're sowing nothing but misery. And despite everything you've done to my wife and family... I don't want you to reap that. Not even for a second.
Forever Forward!
