This just shows again that you are not a serious person, not answering my posts #750, 801, 843 among many others. 950 My response is the same as many of my responses. You keep moving the goalposts. Your first false claim is that Scripture does not command us to kill. Rather than humbly accept...

For some reason, you are determined to make this personal. The topic is the reasons FOR the Crusades.

I'm Italian and every Italian should know this verse, Deuteronomy 14:26 When you arrive, you may use the money to buy any kind of food you want—cattle, sheep, goats, wine, or other alcoholic drink. Then feast there in the presence of the LORD your God and celebrate with your household.

Facts are facts, no matter who is presenting them. Disregarding them explains your world view.

@Matthias, @Aunty Jane, your world view is nihilistic, saying what the Crusaders did is NOT right. How do you defend your INACTION as millions of Christians over the centuries were murdered, raped, enslaved and conquered by Islamic Jihad? What does justice look like in your world view?

Did you watch the Dr Bill Warner vid on Jihad v Crudades?

/pause vitriol Listen, I know we disagree on the Crusades and the impotence of over-spiritualization. But I don’t think I mentioned King Saul. I did recently refer to Paul saying if you don’t work, you don’t eat. /continue vitriol

LOL.

Im not ignoring that one little bit. What the tools and warriors are doesn’t change the fact that his example is to initiate a war - just like the Crusaders.

We’re talking about the reasons FOR the Crusades.

I see. Moving the goal posts again. 1st, you speak in the negative, who Jesus did not command to fight with a sword. This begs the question I asked, then who. Now you say no one. This goes back to your implication that Jesus told his supporters to buy a sword for no application. You affirm in...

1st, yes, you are moving the goalposts. You asked for Scripture, the restrict answers you’ll accept to NT - AS IF I haven’t already provided many verses. 2nd, people live today the way they always did in terms of morals. For instance, I know a guy whose a cowardly pacifist while thinking he’s...

This is the plight of the over-spiritualized.

I’m free to choose. Why do you keep overlooking that verse, where there is freedom, there is the Spirit of the Lord?

Who did he command his followers to fight against in buying a sword?

Agh ha. Moving the goal posts. Who did God use in 1 Samuel 15:3 put to death men and women, children and infants?

I used to have a friend who claimed Jesus actually drank fruit juice. (They just called it wine.) The idea that the all powerful, all knowing Creator of the universe doesn’t know the difference between fruit juice and wine, an alcoholic drink, by definition, is laughable.

Like buy a sword and give to Caesar what is Caesars.

No response to your false idea being refuted that God only protects without killing? Not surprising. Why let facts get in the way of a narrative!

Your taking Scripture out of practical context of today - and disregarding Scripture that does talk about today. I'm talking about justice HERE AND NOW by human hands and I'm sure you know that. Scripture commands US to do justice. Being overly-spiritualized, you keep pretending it is not our...
