There is that word "But" there you missed.
I didn't miss that. It's irrelevant to the discussion.
Is marching across the earth a sin? Did they disobey a law that declared marching across the earth is forbidden?
LOL. Are you just playing dumb or...? Is that all they're doing is marching across the earth? They're just taking a leisurely stroll across the earth, are they? We have no way of discerning what their intentions are? Give me a break. They clearly would have the intention of destroying "the camp of the saints" since we know they are led by Satan and we know that is his goal. And what does scripture say about hating other people? It says it's a sin and makes someone a murderer (1 John 3:15). So, to act like they are not sinning when they clearly have bad intentions is ridiculous and does not take into account that someone can be guilty of sin by having sinful thoughts and motives.
What would be disobedience in this scenario?
I have already explained that to you several times before and I just did it again above. So, you obviously ask questions like this and then just ignore the answers you're given.
Actually killing those in the camp of the saints would be disobedience. So were they consumed by fire, or did they kill people?
Now you claim that just thinking about it is sin.
I don't claim that, Jesus does! I just believe what He claimed. Do you care about what Jesus said?
1 John 3:15 Anyone who hates a brother or sister is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life residing in him.
Do you agree with what Jesus said here? Do you believe that if someone hates someone else that it makes them a murderer, as Jesus said?
He also said lusting after someone makes you guilty of adultery (this obviously applies to married people in particular). Do you agree with that or do you think Jesus was just making that up or didn't know what He was talking about?
How does this verse apply then? James 1:13-15
"Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death."
Seems like God skipped over the sin part and went straight to Death in the scenario. They were deceived by Satan with the intent to kill. They even marched a very long way and put in a lot of effort.
What are you talking about? You continue to act as if someone can't sin unless they actually commit a certain act, but you are ignoring what Jesus taught about this. Do you think that passage just cancels those other verses out that talk about sinning by hating someone or lusting after someone? It doesn't. At the point where they are hating the saints and wanting to kill them, that is a sin. If you believe what Jesus taught, then you would agree. You're trying desperately to get around that, but you can't.
But they were consumed by fire. Was there a law saying that no one could listen to Satan?
You think listening to Satan, who always has evil intentions, would not be a sin? Are you for real? How can you not even know what sin is?
Was there a law that said no one could be deceived by Satan?
He clearly leads them in his pursuit of destroying the saints. How can that not be a sin? Jesus said hating someone is a sin and makes someone guilty of murder. Why are you ignoring that in this case?
In order for sin to take root and enter, there has to be an action associated with breaking a law.
No, there does not! That is not what Jesus taught! Why are you rejecting the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ? This is serious. You need to repent of YOUR sin of not accepting what Jesus taught. He very clearly taught that someone can sin by having evil intentions whether they actually carry those out in physical actions or not. Why do you not accept His teaching?
In Adam's case, Adam himself could not eat from the Tree. The moment that happened death occurred.
You have yet to give an established law they broke to incur death. Otherwise God killed them prior to breaking any law. Being deceived by Satan was one thing. Marching across the earth is the next step, but God stepped in before they could act on their deception and hard work to get to where they were going. That is the point. If God had stepped in and killed Adam prior to the point Adam ate from the fruit, Adam would not have ever disobeyed God. He would have been dead.
Do you deny that they hate the saints and have the intention of destroying them? That's clearly what Satan wants, right? So, that is clearly the intention there. That makes them guilty of murder, according to Jesus (1 John 3:15). You need to start accepting what Jesus taught. Not doing so results in the false doctrines you believe in.
