Truth is not of the devil. Truth is of God. There is no part of this conversation that I say we should not marry...but marriage and weddings are not the same topic. It has always been that the union forms the marriage. From the very beginning...God explained what formed a marriage. Genesis...

NT appeared to you to contradict the old. Like for example regarding eye for an eye, and turning the other cheek. You also suggested a contradiction re marriage and family, from the old to the new. I would like to suggest that every teaching in scripture is in some way, a reflection of the...

Preverbal can of worms! The Bible does not explain that...so that is the end of the road for that...biblically. The turn the other cheek statement... was a disagreement with the Mosaic Law. Was He pointing it at the Jews only? Either way the Mosaic Law has nothing to do with Christians. And this...

I try to avoid this pattern. Make your point or move on.

Should we remember what forum people think, or what Scripture says?

LOL Many times they are not the same.

I think a punching bag "got" treated better.

I agree that Christ and the Apostles taught pacifism.

Lust has nothing and I mean nothing to do with the normal coarse of attraction between a couple from the moment they lay eyes on each other to the time they are watching the traffic go by in rocking chairs. God made every step of that process and Satan was not even consulted. Lust is the...

Take good care of yourself...Praying for you.

LOL

It mostly boils down to respect for yourself and others. Nudity has its purpose...it is not to cause traffic accidents. LOL God told Isaiah to go naked for 3 years. While he was going around preaching...how did he explain that when he met people? Was it humiliation or humor or both? God told...

Ok, lets sum this up a little bit. @April_Rose starts out this thread making the statement I'm Pretty Sure That Jesus Wasn't Talking About This…referring to verse that tells us not to resist evil and to turn the other cheek. And then she says… When He was talking about letting people slap...

The mass lockdowns, just like everywhere else is to facilitate the transition to communism.

Not confused at all. There is a difference between being loving and non combatant. And being the the type that don't fist fight or join the Army. And the guy that would say God Bless you after having his wife slapped down. Redemption...the action of saving or being saved from sin, error, or...

LOL

That would be incorrect. I think you have your own personal history going on here. But I will lend an ear. What you are saying is history...so I am looking for history. The first Christian church building in Assyria up to Afghanistan, across the old silk road as far as China, and as far south...

As I said before the Bible defines God Character...not you or I. And most of my post was not a proposal....but rather Questions. Count the question marks...

You need to check out were Christianity was...where the Roman Empire was not at the time. No Christians on the North Pole. Persecutions brought life to the Church...of course no one now can imagine the horrors that lasted so long. It is all am matter of opinion. Not sure what you are...

Sally? As far as the character of God, I think the Bible does a good job of defining that. Some cherry pick the good and some cherry pick the bad...You can not paint God what you want Him to be. But pacifism.... Still the question is why? Why pacifism? The whole Old and New Testament was in a...
