We're approaching the 25th anniversary when Muslims were practicing Islam again with the full support of pacifists on 9/11.
I see Matthias is focusing ONLY on those Crusades where, because the (how can I say) "more Nobler ones'" were like, "taking everyone who WOULD fight" into their ranks! And? Becuase of this? Yeah? There WERE some "loose canons" amongst their ranks!
This CAN and SHOULD rest square on the shoulders of the "panty-waist pacifists cessionists" who would rather be wiped out, and sold into slavery, than "Arm and DEFEND themselves" against the "Muslim Hordes!"
So, Matthias is focusing on the "WORST OF THE WORST" examples in his (how can I say) his "OWN Personal Crusade" in his "ATTEMPTS OF JUSTIFYING HIS DEMONIZING" the WHOLE CAUSE OF and FOR the Crusades!
While continuously and relentlessly DENYING the "POWER OF THE GODHEAD" in THERE "Loving Kindness" TO and FOR "The Branch!"
Which IS, (of course) Jesus Christ of Nazareth!

Matthias's Anthem? I believe it certainly may be! :Laughingoutloud:

My focus is on Jesus and the apostles. I place them side-by-side with the Crusades so that we can compare and contrast.

You have no confidence in the teaching and example set by Jesus and the apostles. The faith survived without them using the weapons of the world. It always will.

I was thinking this morning @NayborBear that if you had lived in the 1st century you would have been going around saying, “We must use the weapons of the world! If we don’t, we’ll all be pagans speaking Latin!”

***

You don’t think like, nor do you act like, Jesus, the apostles, and followers of Jesus did for the first three centuries.

I’m committed to following the “we do not use the weapons of the world” way of Jesus and the apostles. You aren’t. It really is as simple as that.

No?.......I think I would have been going around announcing that: "If we DON'T defend our faith?!" "We won't BE around to even WORRY OURSELVES about paganism OR which language we'd be communicating in!"

And? should you ever become "WEANED from the MILK of the WORD?!" Going ONTO the Father?
I DO believe you would find yourself not "acting" like Jesus nor His Apostles!

They defended their faith -> without using the weapons of the world.

The faith was preserved. Something which you think isn’t possible.

Their way - my way - isn’t your way.

John 5:19.

Someone who doesn’t act like Jesus and the apostles isn’t a follower of Jesus.

Ask @Wrangler. Your source is trinitarian. He’s unitarian.

How astute are you? A unitarian can believe in God the Son - Wrangler is not that kind of unitarian.

Going off of our conversation yesterday, you aren’t likely going to ask him @NayborBear

“There is no ‘God the Son’ or ‘God the Holy Spirit‘ anywhere in Scripture for very good reason.” - @Wrangler

Post in thread 'Why did Jesus pray to himself?'
Why did Jesus pray to himself?

Follow the link and read for yourself him saying such.

He didn’t pull the wool over your eyes. You did it to yourself.

No! I haven't yet read any posts from Wrangler stating such!
The guy claims to be a Pastor but is being as divisive as can be, invoking a naked poisoning the well claim. It goes like this.
  • He cannot lay a glove on me in the debate.
  • So, he resorts to hoping to turn the subject from the reasons FOR the Crusades to something bad about me (or at least, what we may not agree with).
  • if the fallacy is accepted, the poisoned well of me having something bad about me means my argument FOR the Crusades must be bad also.
  • illogical. Divisive.
