Both. Since eight years of age and all my life. [

You would do well to educate yourself on this subject. The church lied to us. Here is a trustworthy source. https://www.bereanpatriot.com/majority-text-vs-critical-text-vs-textus-receptus-textual-criticism-101/#Corruption-of-the-Alexandrian-text-type [

Didn't feel remorse? He committed suicide over it. (and returned the silver) [

Are you sure? Perhaps you have missed the point of this thread. Are we to love Judas while God hates him? [

This reminded me of a thought I had as a young adult in the church. These people talk about the same things over and over. Never anything new. I came to sort of understand why that was. They were fundamentalists. The fundamentals were everything. Adding anything was wrong to them. But it seemed...

No worries. I nominate this for the understatement of the week. - LOL As the saying goes, "Even bad press is press." [

My way of agreeing with a statement to make a point without agreeing with it in total. I often have to (accept) speak the same language as these folks as a method of clear communication. Otherwise I would have to pick at every word they use. Sounds exhausting. [

Right. A superiority complex caused by a dim view of humankind. (created in God's image) In the same way a divorcee hates the image of their mate in their progeny. [

Consider the evidence. https://www.christianityboard.com/threads/bibliolatry-worship-knowledge-of-the-book-more-than-the-author.54191/ [

Do you understand where the Bible came from? I think that calling the whole thing "God's Word" is misdirected. [

That is a complete mischaracterization of what I discuss about the final judgment. (you are bearing false witness again) [

You speak of a book as if it is a person you worship. (an idol) https://www.christianityboard.com/threads/bibliolatry-worship-knowledge-of-the-book-more-than-the-author.54191/ [

Did Jesus love Judas? If Jesus loved Judas, shouldn't we? "To love a betrayer, a person who seeks your actual harm and who slanders you, is a part of our faith (Luke 6:22; 1 Peter 4:4). It literally is the story of Jesus Christ. Also a part of our faith is the separation between Holy and...

If offense is the problem, I would say those who attack with their reply posts are more to blame than those who provide thought-provoking topics. I am being torn to shreds on a regular basis. But I CHOOSE not to be offended...

The subject of offense is very interesting. Worth a topic. Offense is in the eyes and ears of the offended. Proverbs 19:11 NIV A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense. Matthew 15:12 NIV Then the disciples came to him and asked, “Do you know that the...

That's a great point. Thank you. (he's bearing false witness) [

Not sure if that is a reference to my threads, but I will say this... If the status quo can't stand up to a few challenges then it is a house of cards that needs to fall. IMHO [

You are one of us then. [
