    Should I buy a sword?

    Give. Take. Not the same. See Matthew 25. The parable is NOT the 5 wise virgins giving the foolish virgins oil they ‘need.’

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    He doesn't realize his moral poles are reversed; we are playing God's advocate; it is him who is advocating for the devil. Your point about his throwing Jesus, the apostles and our Heavenly Father under the bus at every turn is spot on. He has no rational response to Ps 110:1, which is why you...

    Should I buy a sword?

    The Christian ethos is about giving not, allowing oneself to be a victim, "letting" criminals take.

    Th part in red contradicts the part in blue.

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    Exactly right! The cycle of evil is broken by living the teaching of Jesus - which is to annihilate all evil, such as throwing them in the Lake of Fire. I’ve been thinking about your basic argument that the most violent person who ever lived was peaceful BEFORE he became ultimately violent is...

    Dumbing it down!

    Limited by justice - at some point, people will be thrown in the Lake of Fire.

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    The perversion of the Crusades debate is the Crusaders were NOT a threat to their own country but do what was necessary to defend their own country. @Matthias is equating a patriot with a traitor, a. Christian patriot at that!

    Should I buy a sword?

    It sure would.

    Should I buy a sword?

    Not sure how you come to that conclusion unless you think that is Jesus’ intent in having one but a sword, which does t make sense.

    Should I buy a sword?

    Of course, we should be prudent in all ways. My SIL was approached at a Walmart parking lot with a would be robber. He used the cart to get some separation between him and the robber, reached for his concealed weapon and asked the aspiring profiteer if he "really wanted to do this." See my SIL...

    Outstanding analysis. I look forward to the "Yea but" rebuttal. LOL

    Yes, do you understand the connection of Ordo amoris to everything is limited?

    Why did Jesus pray to himself?

    @TitusTwoWife is very wise. I forgive you @PS95.

    Why did Jesus pray to himself?

    Untrue. I did answer your basic question of who Jesus is. I didn’t take the time to address various follow up questions out of concern for hijacking the thread. I take that you did, in fact, read Deuteronomy 18:15-18 in light of John 1:45. Sad appeal to only, merely and just AS IF edifies...

    Why did Jesus pray to himself?

    I’m surprised you didn’t acknowledge this post @PS95. The Gospels teach plainly who Jesus is. Did you read Deuteronomy in light of John 1:45?

    Why did Jesus pray to himself?

    No. I’m concerned about you apparent lack of self-awareness in contributing to what you claim you don’t want. If you start another thread, I’ll be happy to answer your specific questions.

    Why did Jesus pray to himself?

    You are a controlling sort, frequently dictating how others (me) conduct themselves for your convenience. What a sense of entitlement! Not very Christ like. Instead of being all things to all people, you want all people to be all things you prefer. All this as a distraction from the point of...

    Why did Jesus pray to himself?

    A series of questions is what makes such thread long, which you seem not to prefer. Another thread, perhaps. No need to hijack this thread. I believe we agree that Jesus didn’t pray to himself.
