Yes, let's be quite clear. The Jews did, in fact, believe that the law would save them from their sins. Practically everyone knows that. I was taught that in Sunday School and church as a child. What they were looking for the Messiah to do was to save them from the despised yoke of the earthly...

Got it. You're not here to do either of us any good. You're just here to criticize and attack. :)

Perhaps you feel my attitude is harsh because I'm easily annoyed by fits of illogical expression. For instance: You say here that you're sure I behave differently at church. And yet you say that if you went to my church you would leave because of my behavior. Can you see how little logical...

It's the rule of the day: Opposition = HATE :rolleyes:

1{A Psalm of David.} Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. 2Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: 3Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; 4Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with...

Uh-huh

Where'd you go?

It's quite possible that I'm misunderstanding you, but you seem to be saying that abortion is not in the President's Eisenhower box or wheelhouse. Am I right?

Actually, in and of ourselves, we're never 100% sinless. Selfish motives pollute even our "good" deeds. Not to mention sins of omission.

It's so weird that you believe you know what I think. Adventists are not robots anymore. Many of us actually think for ourselves. Why don't you outline your beefs and beliefs to me in a PM. But, please, please, keep it intelligible and as dispassionate as you can manage. If I can't understand...

Well, like me, I think they recognize that who's in the White House does not determine the number of abortions performed each year (at least not in the way armchair politicians would have us think). It doesn't take much googling to find those numbers.

There is nothing in the context that suggests anything other than moral instruction. If you don't understand this, you won't understand what he said.

As long as we're being respectful, I appreciate this sentiment. But I'm not at all sure you do understand my concern. I'm really not interested in philosophy, and I believe thing's that have been made plain don't need to be sophisticated by man's cerebral wanderings. More importantly, 31 years...

Magnificent rationalizations for disobedience! Hang in there, Brothers! You'll make sense of something yet!

So how much sin is acceptable, then?

Uh, yeah, that's exactly what it's about. Who ever suggested such a thing (the straw man rears its ugly head again)? No one has ever lived a perfectly sinless life, but Christ (except for the cognitive dissonants who actually believe He broke the Sabbath). So what?

So the law only points out adultery/fornication to the Jew. Got it. Some people seem to need a lot more proof than others. Unique, perhaps, but not exclusive. Brilliant. The genetic fallacy strikes again. Insults. To my parents, yet.

"This level of hatred?" Oh yeah, I'm just full of hate. That's why I get on here and answer the same mind-numbing questions day after day. Sorry I'm not all marshmallows and fur. I'm totally serious. Who decides what the "Good word" is? Mat 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall...

Gee, thanks for the link to exadventist.com. I would never have thought to go there to look for Sabbath-decrying articles. :rolleyes:

Which good word should we spread? Shouldn't be too hard. There are only about 750,000 in an English Bible.
