Busy weekend, being Mother's Day. How do you celebrate it in the Netherlands? In America, Mother's Day is the most attendance nation wide at church after Christmas and Easter. The weather here started off terrible. In the 40's with ominous clouds. Now, although the temperature remains in the...

I already did. Projecting. I'm focusing on verses and parts of verses relevant to this thread, the proper Christian response to Islamic Jihad. Being overly spiritualized, you want to pretend it's all about spiritual matters despite Christ's soulful command. I am not denying there are spiritual...

Well, you have your opinion and he has his. I agree with his opinion. I once told a pastor if I could change one thing about the church it would be for them to never use the word love again. It's abused as a surrogate for anything, especially emotional manipulation. Because we love God, what...

You are confusing the enemies of God with the enemies of the State, which God put in authority over us, with the command to give to Caesar what is Caesar’s and not to neglect the weightier matters of God’s will, JUSTICE.

Projecting. I am putting what is said in context: YOU: We should follow Jesus. ME: Agreed. Jesus will immediately kill his enemies upon his return. YOU: We shouldn’t follow Jesus in that way because <INSERT RATIONALIZATION HERE.>

We know your hate filled opinion. What we don’t know is your capacity to consider ideas outside yourself, like the facts of history in people honoring the Crusades by naming schools after them. The contrast between the facts of history and your hate filled opinion shows how Christendom has...

Yes.

Schools recently have renamed from Crusaders. This proves previous generations honored the Crusaders by believing their students should model the fighting spirit of the Crusaders.

LOL. Since we aren't Jesus, we shouldn't even try to emulate him. Wow!

Also Jesus: Buy a sword.

Scripture says the first thing Christ does upon his return is smite his enemies. Does that persuade you to do what Jesus does?

Wrong. Totally wrong. You are pretending "the Messiah’s way of living" excludes violence. I've been through this list with you many times before and you've acknowledged the Messiah’s way of living ultimately includes violently throwing billions to their death in the Lake of Fire. Back on my...

Because of this post, I'll take you off my ignore list. No sir, you have not! What you write is NOT acknowledging the reasons FOR the Crusades but more pacifism here: "Condemning it all" ≠ Responding with acknowledgement that after over 500 battles against Christendom, they know there were...

Islamic Jihadi's are fanatics and don't negotiate in good faith. The Koran tells them doing so to allow you to regain strength and strike at the infidels later is OK. The West needs to come to terms with who they're dealing with. There is the most bloody 1400 years to learn the lesson of the...

Impressive display of Jihad history against Christendom. I look forward to @Matthias, @Anchorite, and @Lizbeth responding with acknowledgement that after over 500 battles against Christendom, they know there were reasons FOR the Crusades.

1 John 5:1 everyone who loves the Father loves his children, too. Doesn't sound like you love God's children, which calls into question your love of the Father.

You continue to ask foolish, "gotcha" questions without answering questions yourself. Discernment is needed. There are rules and there are exceptions. If a nuclear warhead is coming at you at 30,000 mph, you don't have an opportunity to attack those who fired the missile. There are other...

Here is just more foolishness. A perversion of the Works debate. No one performs Works to save themselves. Once saved, we demonstrate our faith by our works, most especially making sacrifices for God's Kingdom and no one ever sacrificed more than the Crusaders.

Never said I prefer it; just accepting of reality. You got to break a few eggs to make an omelette.

You don’t even understand the verse you cite. Jesus is referring to an insult not tolerate being assaulted and willingly be killed.
