    Offenders in the kingdom

    Understand this: 2 Corinthians 1:20 'For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.' Not understand it or misunderstand it will mean one is cut loose to pursue any 'aberration' one can imagine.....particularly religious.

    Offenders in the kingdom

    The misapplication of intent is patently evident in Orthodox Jews where Deuteronomy 6:7-9 is subverted by its practitioners. 'These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road...

    Offenders in the kingdom

    Being caught up in convoluted theology (but not recognised) becomes the spearhead of confusion....thus endlessly argued over.....ultimately missing the intent of scripture and the point!

    Keys to Understanding the True Gospel

    Even when we (humans) killed God's revelation of himself (Jesus) he did not retaliate with violence of any sort. In such a revelation, he shows the Universe his character....a character which has been maligned for millennia. This deception by Satan was of such a sophisticated nature a goodly...

    Offenders in the kingdom

    The tares aren't in the Kingdom. When Jesus returns in the clouds for all to see, his people will be caught up in the clouds to meet him. Those who are not his people (tares).....their hearts will fail for fear. They will not be able to countenance the glory of the unconstrained character of...

    Offenders in the kingdom

    They don't. The language is a literary exercise. Jesus is making a point. Get the point, don't press the language beyond its intent. It's like saying, 'it's raining cats and dogs'.

    He that hates Me, Hates My Father also.

    sorry Behold, your stuff doesn't cut it. You have a picture of God that is not inline with Jesus. In fact, you misrepresent God in a religious cobbling that presents God as a schizophrenic monster.

    I think it's a really good analogy because it hits the nail on the head. You think it's a really bad analogy because it exposes your flawed understanding of the character of God.

    Past The Exuberance of Victory: Assessing MAGA's enemies

    sorry Wrangler, poor response!

    Mumbo jumbo is for all intents and purposes, cobbling scantly available information poorly and creating scenarios from a vivid imagination .

    Past The Exuberance of Victory: Assessing MAGA's enemies

    You believe lotsa things as do others Wrangler, yet believing them does not make them so. Wild guesswork based on popular theology is what I call it. It is devoid of understanding the scriptures through the lens of the risen Jesus. I have no confidence you know what that means? Sure, you use...

    He that hates Me, Hates My Father also.

    Have you missed HOW God has revealed himself in Jesus, MA2444.....or have you also turned God into one who brutally has his own Son murdered by wicked men to satisfy man's imagined 'justice' but called it God's....and further, have you imagined that those who do not accept this so called...

    He that hates Me, Hates My Father also.

    All you do Behold is use Jesus and the carrot. In the background you have God holding and using the big stick. Imagine if your wife said to you before you married her, marry me and we will live happily ever after, don't marry me and I'll make your life hell......because that's what you're...

    Man's imagination knows no bounds. The inspiration for the most outrageous captures man's attention easily. Just look at the plethora of Hindu god's which millions deem worthy of worship. Guarding our hearts from fantastical intrusions in the world of imagination is a good move. How do we do...

    He that hates Me, Hates My Father also.

    You have assumed too much re hybrids (Nephilim) MA2444. The flood was an event coming because of factors independent of God. It was God who sent an advance warning for the purpose of saving...even rebels....but they would not be saved. The message of Jesus is in the same vein. He would save...

    He that hates Me, Hates My Father also.

    You have a confused and maligned understanding of the character of God, Behold. You have not understood Jesus or his intentions of making clear God's character.

    What to do with all these illegal aliens?

    If you've concluded that my reply is a twisting of justice then there is no point explaining anything. You have already decided HOW to see.

    By insisting that the character of God is a genocidal drowning and burning of people deity. Also by insisting that God's character as described by some of the OT prophets eclipses that revealed by Jesus.
