Did Jesus have tender and sensitive feelings? Did he oppose evil? Did he lay down his life ie, submit to the murderous designs of those wanting him dead? Self defence is not God defence in this context. Self defence relies on ones own ability. God defence is trusting him who has better...

I guess killing your neighbour, participating in it or approving the behaviour is easier than loving them.

God through Christ has reconciled the world unto Himself. Absolutely! yet even so, many in the world don't want reconciliation. They love their theologies more than THE gift.

It's referring to each individual ever born. The fact that many resist it does not change the fact.

The broad spectrum of Christianity VERSUS the narrow-minded view I have a narrow mind; it bypasses all the theological mumbo jumbo and trusts that I am loved enough to die for.

Paul's thrust in Romans 5 is one that defines the good news as being for all people.....not just the elect

Could it be that all he's ever heard is judgement from the self righteous. Could it be that 'grace' is only ever understood as some formality before a meal? Could it be that all they ever hear from the 'pious' is what they do wrong? No wonder folk bolt like a horse hit on the tender parts by wasps!

’Religious’ folk bomb other countries, make promises they don’t keep, boast of their great insight, are intolerant of opposition and line their own pockets with ‘clever’ schemes while being full of blame for others.

That's unfortunate Strider. It's unfortunate because many who go by the name of Christian are absorbed with self, no different to the rest of the World. They do not know Jesus even though they prattle of his name. If they did, you mightn't be wanting to take 'the express train to hell'.

What do you do with Romans 5?

Behold, your presentation is full of your own analysis....and in your many words you have not enlightened us about Jesus

@Big Boy Johnson I hope you've taken note of Strider's post. It's the smugness and the rightness in your own eyes which elicit comments of this nature.

What you have proved Behold, is that you make charges against others you cannot substantiate while projection is your favourite defence as is selectively quoting in an attempt to shift the emphasis. This brown duck is awake to your style; a style in which you exonerate yourself while dishing...

I will not jump through your hoops Behold. You assume wrongly. Because your demands are not met does not mean I don't understand. You build assumptions upon assumptions, the end of which is a tangled mess. Why on Earth would I want to get into your tangled spider's web!

I realise your objective is to get into a debate. My observation of your style has me concluding you are not interested in discovery but rather intent on telling the other how wrong they are. I have no interest in playing your unhealthy game. I have invited you to tell me what you think I...

I believe Jesus is my Saviour. I have peace inside and there is no confusion. Is that difficult to understand or believe? I know you have a great sense of self importance with all your Topics and all your many dealings with Pauls Theology. It's the self importance that's so odious Behold. There...

Seeing you think you understand what I believe perhaps you could tell me what you think I believe and I will let you know if you're on track?

Why do you go off in a repetitive tirade Behold? My guess is that you imagine I am saying something that I am not saying. If only you would stop for long enough to hear what is said.....or is your filter so blocked your poor hearing has stiffened your neck? Have you considered that the Pharisees...

Why am I not a Christian? Frankly, I sympathise with you. Going by the narrow, condemning attitudes coupled with short sighted bigotedness exhibited by many going by the name of Christian, I totally understand but I would ask, have you met my Jesus?

What you stated is NOT FUNNY, humour or not.
