While this is preferable, context is important. We are to have peace with all men as much as we can AND cursed is he that keeps his sword back from blood. Phinehas was deemed righteous by God for his intervention in stopping the plague...even though it amounted to killing two people. It depends...

What religious people can't see is that their take on God's goodness for themselves...is not the only way to see God. As such, it is often easier to reason spiritual things with non-believers than with those who have been religiously indoctrinated. Non-believers can sometimes see the reasoning...

She wipes her mouth and says ...I have done no iniquity. Can't be talking to me. Nope ....I refuse to listen.

Babylonian dogma check list. 1. Do the meek inherit the earth? (Correct Babylonian response) No. Only those who believe ON Christ are saved. 2. Does God care for the poor? " " No. Not unless they accept Jesus as their personal sacrifice. 3...

Haha...I'm speaking too far over your head. You read without understanding. To you it's just blah blah...because it isn't religious....it's spiritual understanding. And that strikes you as bizarre...it sounds so so ...unreligious. :rolleyes:

The New Covenant is based on holiness. Holiness demands that our hearts be undivided. In the higher walk, too much longing for this world causes one to lose the intimate connection with God and breaks the power that keeps us in His holy walk. Jesus was referring to the higher walk in many of His...

God goes easy on the righteous (the goodness and mercy of God) but hard on the holy and the pretenders to holiness (the severity of God. ) The pretenders will think to themselves.....everything revolves around me being justified...so...God will go easy on me and hard on non-believers who are...

If I went up to Oprah and said that I thought she was a kind person...and you went up and did your evangelical thing and told her she was evil and going straight to hell...which one of us would she think is judging her? Don't overestimate your religious charisma. :ummm: You judge Oprah because...

Like how tall is He...what size of shoe does He wear? Facts ABOUT Jesus? That's as far as many go. Superficial. But when you ask people what Jesus can do for them...well, that's a different story. Few want to ACTUALLY know Him...outside of bible reading time. Now you sound as superficial as...

Your version is religious. The Pharisees version of Judaism was the same. YET>>> it all "comes from" reading a book. No. You want me to so you can get all judgmental with me. But no, I don't need to judge every practice and every action. I think you are the one who is into the New Agey stuff...

Oprah is a kind person. Your dire need is only a smokescreen. A religious facade that you use to make yourself to be better than others. It's all pretense. Now you want to talk about faith? I do that...and you hate faith. You like religious dogmas and beliefs.

You are wise to do so. :goodj: A religion of death demands you hold to certain beliefs. But the way of Christ is by life...an eternal kind of life that is full of joy, love and peace. The opposite is religion that smells of death and decay. But people will latch onto that death thinking that...

Amen. You are describing an encounter with a religious spirit. One that justifies a person and "qualifies" them to then to judge everyone else. It's the opposite of love...pretentious, haughty, judgmental...assuming and presuming.

You have a religious spirit. Oprah does not. So she is ahead of you. You are more in bondage to the flesh than she is. Know thyself.

While you are so occupied with those pesky non-believers...you don't realize that all those false believers have infiltrated into the church to put their muddy boot-prints everywhere...thus spoiling the place for anything holy. And you are just as guilty. No more or less so than my Protestants...

This thread seems to have run its course as the dregs have come to attack me personally...as per usual. The challenge I have when this happens is whether to answer at all...or how to answer. I tend to let the ranters rant for awhile...but this only seems to attract more crows....circling for...

W.W.O.D. (What would Oprah do?) Amigo, you need to at least consider what Oprah would do. She could help you with your tendency towards anti-social behaviour. So then, step away from the mirror...stop the virtue-signalling, and start to PRACTICE something that looks more like kindness. Kindness...

You are confusing the gospel with your message of anti-social behaviour. ...and your obsession with claiming to believe ON Jesus at ever greater speeds. Who are you trying to impress? Do you think there is a heavenly tally so that vain repetitions are counted in your favour? What "spectrum"...

What about the one who mindlessly repeats the same rant over and over again...looking for approval from equally deceived ones?

You are condemning yourself...but you don't see it. A blind man who has never seen doesn't know he is blind. Your gospel IS counterfeit...naming and claiming...then looking down on others for not being as simplistic and foolish as yourself. You are caught in God's net. So easy to condemn...
