I can never grasp Middle English. A modern translation renders it. Psalm 37:8 The Voice So turn from anger. Don’t rage, and don’t worry—these ways frame the doorway to evil. It’s about emotional intelligence and stoicism. The 7 Deadly Sins are not about jettisoning all emotion. It’s about...

I don’t think you are being honest with yourself. If you looked around the world and saw everything was great, you’d start thinking man doesn’t need God. Meditate on the source of your anger. You may discover it stems from pride. I give it to God. One of the major transformations in my life...

And whipping at people and buy swords with intent and be prepared to use it, I.e., kill bad guys.

Wrong. As Christians, we should advocate for God, Jesus, truth, justice, love, beauty, light over darkness, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is good, whatever is virtuous and praiseworthy. See Phil 4:8

Wrong. Absolutely wrong. I provided numerous verses providing sanction on both an individual and corporate level. Your pacifist world view is just in denial of the sanction given. You and @Matthias are fanatically opposed to the soulful commands of Scripture. Beyond Scripture, see generations...

It's easy to deny an identification and speak in negation until it is held up to scrutiny. What is your acceptance criteria; what would someone who is over-spiritualized look like?

I'm asking a question. Care to answer it? What is your principle objection to the Crusades? (A or B is preferred answer than over-spiritualized gobbledygook.) A. The Crusaders took it too far in committing atrocities. B. The Christians initiated the Crusades.

I’d be surprised if you didn’t.

Conscientious objection is not Christian but anti-Christian. See the Crusades.

My comment was not directed to anyone but you. Again showing you lost the argument in Appeal to Ad Homenim. One need posses no courage to grasp the reasons for the Crusades.

My comment was not directed to anyone but you. Again showing you lost the argument in Appeal to Ad Homenim. One need posses no courage but intellectual courage to grasp the reasons for the Crusades.

@Matthias, what is your principle objection: The Crusaders took it too far in committing atrocities. The Christians initiated the Crusades.

I don't know anything about Desmond Doss. From what you shared, I don't want to know one thing about him. Your rationalizing is comical; invoke Desmond Doss (whoever that is) to discredit the reasons for the Crusades!

Does anyone think Jesus advocated we live so opulently that we acquire dust collectors? The only reason for a thing is its intended use. This includes killing with a sword. My wife wanted a new coffee maker and I said OK but we cannot ever make coffee with it as I follow your reasoning with a...

Indeed that is true. You will be a man in form but not substance. Today's over-spiritualized want to defund the police and send in social workers. What Defunding The Police Could Mean For Social Workers - Human Services Edu More than the chances of him deserving to still being married if they...

To those reading these exchanges I'm having with the over-spiritualized, I pray you see the pattern; they are not balanced, not devoting themselves to the soulful needs of the body. It is a contagion launched undoubtedly by Satan himself to make the church impotent by twisting God's words. Like...

Not really an answer to my question. This is because you are over-spiritualized, you ignore Christ’s command to give to Caesar what is Caesar’s.

Ludicrous? It naturally follows from the command to buy a sword. A recent judge issued a ludicrous ruling that POTUS can nationalize the Guard but he can’t deploy them. One implies the other. It’s like saying,sure you can own a gun but you can’t use it under any circumstances to shoot...

Aka, already committed to executive justice and give onto Caesar. You?
