You're totally wrong about that, for Christianity is about God's Truth in His Word, and everything... is to be measured by God's Word, especially ideas of men's religions, of which Islam is one. You're wrong Biblically about that also. Christ established the right of self-defense in Luke 22...

Paul's Message concerning his desire for his brethren of flesh Israel is from that Romans 9 chapter through... the Romans 11 chapter. Paul was chosen by Christ Jesus to preach The Gospel to 3 groups: 1) Gentiles; 2) kings; and 3) children of Israel. So I'm sure he knew there were remnants of...

Wish I could have found those words at the time.

God bless your stance, for it is the right one. I believe per God's Word there's a deeper matter involved with just why... so many Christians brethren have become weak today like Israel had become during the times of Judges. It's like what God said through Isaiah... Isa 3:12-16 12 As for...

Every group has its radicals and misbehavers. Those who fought to defend Christianity in the Crusades were no different in that. But the Crusades were NOT begun because of those few radicals that might have seen it as a tool for their own aims. It was begun because of Christian nations being on...

Not really. Maybe you didn't intend that idea, but that's basically what it means when one says they think pagans have more conscience to do good than Christians, like your statement... "Pagans demonstrate more a conscience, than those "under grace" - I speak from experience."

Are you saying that we as Christians MUST keep Saturday as the sabbath and also keep the OT law, all in order to be saved through Christ Jesus?

And you're totally right about that. But that's not really the matter which Vashti has brought up. If we as Christians start trying to justify a pagan lifestyle just because we ourselves also cannot totally be free from sin in this flesh, then you'd have no righteous foundation to go to them...

Those of the "resurrection of life" in the John 5:28-29 ARE the "first resurrection" of Rev.20. Those are resurrected specifically AT Christ's second coming per the John 5:28-29 Scripture. 1 Cor 15:23 23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are...

That I cannot... agree with. Pagans are under sin just as much as any Christian believer is. The difference is that sin is ultimately covered for those in Christ as they repent to Him and make a change, but not for the pagan who continues in their sins without reconciliation to God through His...

You got a rep boost from me for that.

No, many... of the American people are NOT happy with some of the nations that its 'leaders' support. I'm in no way... happy with Communist China being given 'favored trade status' by leaders in our U.S. Gov., and neither are many Americans. There's a faction in America in control that does...

If you'll notice, I specifically use the idea of "radical" and "extremists" and "Jihad" to point to Muslims who war in the name of their Islamic religion, which their clerics teach them to war until all are converted to Islam. There are many peaceful Muslims that do not practice Islamic Jihad...

Ps 18:32-34 32 It is God That girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect. 33 He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high places. 34 He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms. (KJV) I'm not unaware of the false propaganda of...

War is responsible for evils on BOTH SIDES. Neither side is excluded in that. But using that as an excuse to push negativism against Christianity because of the western Christian nations DEFENDING theirselves against the Islamic jihad (holy war) of that time is not facing the truth of that...

Am I misunderstanding your last statement that I underlined, that pagans demonstrate more of a conscience than those "under grace"? If you speak of some of the 'Once Saved, Always Saved" crowd, then I might agree somewhat. I would never agree with that about the majority of Christian believers...

I recall in my college Accounting class, taught by CPA who had worked for a corporation, how the GACP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) allows one to turn a debt entry into a credit, just by magic bookkeeping! Those who use the phrase "creative accounting" for what the Financial...

Exactly!

I get tired of the propaganda by some about the Christian Crusades, always trying to put it in a bad light as if it was just a political movement by Christians in service to a pope. The Christian Crusades began because of Muslims attacking Gaul (France) and southern Europe and Asia Minor...

Right, and Moses was a pagan too huh? Rom 13:1-4 1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. 2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to...
