As have I but that doesn't negate the loss of liberty or the inherent depravity of man.
Yes but the idea that Christians have a monopoly on morality is just simply not the truth
What about Janism
The very core of their religion is not violence. They won't even kill a bug. To say this is immoral would be silly

This all started with Nehemiahs anti-Semitic comment about the Jews
I know brother and I know where you’re coming from too but don’t let the internet cause you stress.
‘I see it as a tool to gain new knowledge not to convince others who have made up their minds.

Of course he was. I'm just trying to see if Dude653 will consent to this.
Much evil has been perpetrated in the name of God throughout history...not the least of which was done by Saul. But some would use that to justify their own current views of one group or another. This also is wrong.
I understand :)


Psalm 23:1
Thank you so very much for the inspiration :)

Please!
Respecting ALL ? You're very often rude,aggressive, condescending, to members here. That's not respect for all.

You have an issue with Christians. That's why you condemned forgiveness in the Alex Jones thread and even said in your own way he should be killed.

You stay to make a change? How's that working out for you? And America?


You stay because you love to push buttons. You appear to be a contraction.

[Note. The aforementioned post was a personal opinion. Don't sue me. Or I'll sue you right back.]
I love auto correct,not really.

Contrarían. Not Contraction.

I don't know what Janism is but nonviolence, while in most cases is admirable, it doesn't even begin to address morality. Just because people aren't as bad as they might be doesn't make them moral. And, as Christianity is the only entity that has a remedy for the depravity of man, I would rather have those who represent me understand this as well.
You are free to vote for whomever you like and you should be allowed the opportunity to voice your opinions. But if you are going to do so you should also expect that others who don't agree with you will expect and should receive the same courtesy.

People think I'm attacking Christianity and I'm not. Plenty of questions are perfectly reasonable reasonable people
I'm attacking the idea that they are the only people who have morals because that simply not true

You are welcome! I've made changes to it... already :giggle:

Making Jesus's face more visible through the text by separating the first line from the rest :D
I have no problem inspiring more since my role is minimal and easy and you do all the work.

Well, you are right on most everything, dear, but this is not work for me... it is play :D

Though a labour of love to be sure :)

I do not tire of it and I love being inspired :)

I don't believe you are attacking Christianity but your approach and choice of verbiage seems counterintuitive others do. Clearly something is being lost in the messaging. I'm just suggesting a different approach.

I stand corrected although I'm lobbying for the phrase to be changed to sit corrected the older I get.

That should get your creative juices flowing...if not some other things.

All that you have posted is correct and good to understand. But we need to understand it in light of the Cross.
Agreed. The main focus of Christians should be (a) the propagation of the true and full Gospel throughout the world, (b) the edification of the saints through the pure Word of God, and (c) personal growth through the sanctifying power of the Spirit and the living Word of God.

We need to be salt and light in a crooked world. And God had already shown us that evildoers and seducers will wax worse and worse until the Man of Sin be revealed. But that is not the end of the story. The kingdom of darkness will be totally destroyed by the Lord Jesus Christ at His coming. And He will rule over all the nations with a rod of iron. After that all the evildoers will face eternal damnation.

DANIEL 7: CHRIST WILL HAVE AN EVERLASTING KINGDOM ON EARTH VERY SHORTLY
13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of Man [Christ] came with the clouds of Heaven, and came to the Ancient of Days [God the Father], and they brought Him near before Him. 14 And there was given Him dominion, and glory, and a Kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve Him: His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.

The Beast (the Antichrist), the False Prophet, and Satan himself will all be cast into the Lake of Fire for eternity: And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone... And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. (Rev 19:20; 20:10)

We believers instead look for a New Heavens and a New Earth "wherein dwelleth righteousness". That is God's ultimate plan. But the New Jerusalem -- the eternal home of the saints -- will then give light to the earth, and that light will be the glory of God and of the Lamb.

I took my daughter and a nephew to see Bob Dylan a few years ago because MK was opening for BD....

Bob Dylan alone I would not have gone. I saw MK in concert with Eric Clapton, in the late 80s, also.

Bob Dylan put me to sleep. I could hardly recognize his songs for all his growling and barking LOL.

Jews are not satanists
Not all Jews. Just the Satanist Jews. And the bogeyman of "Antisemitism" is just like the bogeyman of "Islamophobia". These terms are meant to suppress the truth about evildoers.
