It says in the Old Testament that we are not supposed to mark our body. However, in Matthew 5:17-20 it does not say that disobeying the commandments of the Old Testament will necessarily put you out of the kingdom: it merely teaches that you will not be called as great in the kingdom.

I suppose. (btw, I am currently attending a Calvary Chapel).

My point was that Jesus was made according to the seed of David according to the flesh (in His humanity). And that Jesus is YHWH. Of course He is not made as pertaining to His Deity; that is more of a transfer.

See Acts 24:14 (kjv). Paul worshiped God in a way that the Jews called heresy. It would not be possible that people who consider themselves Christians might consider the true Christians to worship in a way that they call heresy: and that it is actually the truth that they have not considered...

Here is the whole verse: Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4 (kjv).

The whole verse might have ministered to me even greater if you had thought to quote it from your Bible instead of memory. Now there I go like I actually just acquired a persecution complex! People just don't understand the power of their words; or maybe they do, and intend to cause harm in...

Amen. Thank you. You should probably uncapitalize the second "He".

Romans 4:3, Romans 4:5, and Romans 4:9 also declare the principle.

Matthew 5:10-12 English: King James Version 10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and...

It is not any kind of delusional thought pattern if you are actually persecuted for your faith: because it is then based in reality.

I pray that everyone who has ever considered me to have a persecution complex may obtain a persecution complex and be persecuted for it.

For all you know, Hosea 9:7 is my life verse. But really, that is merely speaking of the attitude of the world towards Christians and Jews who love the Lord. 2 Timothy 1:7 (kjv) and 2 Corinthians 5:13 speak more clearly on the matter. Is it not persecution that you have said that I have a...

Ha! Keep telling yourself that. This is a biblical attitude (Matthew 5:10-12 (kjv), 2 Timothy 3:10-12, John 15:18-25, 1 John 3:13-15) along with religious preoccupation (1 Peter 2:1-3 (kjv)) <fify>

re #859: It isn't a movie, it is a video of a man preaching.

You're not privy to that like the man was who testified of it in the video.

Is there a contrast to that in Galatians 4:10-11?

I'm not digging any kind of pit, I am warning you about a pit that has already been dug.

What movie?

So either God doesn't love everyone or His love fails (see 1 Corinthians 13:8), which is contrary to scripture, unless you can provide a scripture that says God does not love the whole world in contradiction to John 3:16.

Indeed. See Isaiah 45:11. Jehovah has a Maker. They are not lying if they tell them that it isn't real but just a fun thing to do on Easter. Personally, I don't think that I would even bring the easter bunny into the Easter celebration; but then again, I don't have kids yet. parents love...
