Today’s church’s misunderstandings

I do hope you understand that "base" and "fulfillment" are distinct concepts.

And I think your understanding of scripture is flawed through not accepting that all scripture comes from the Lord and the Lord created our world. I thank the Lord, what it says can be trusted to express all the Lord's attributes that are given in the Psalms. It is up to us to find the love that is an attribute of the Lord when we read such as the killing of animals. That one is simple, and explained in Isaiah. God gave blood on the altar, and it takes the sacrifice of blood for the atonement of souls, as God gave His son for our salvation. God hates the blood of animals, but loves us so wants us to repent of the sins that kills, and gave blood to attain that. Liv. 17:11.

To you, the Lord made a mistake with the old covenants and destroyed them. I do not think that God could do that and still be the God explained in Psalms. If God is not eternal, dependable, and to be trusted completely we are in deep trouble. Then God could change at any time. God gave a better covenant, so there are things about the old covenant that are not needed by us any longer, are obsolete. It is up to us to check on what in the old testament is obsolete.

Try supporting your ridiculous accusations with actual evidence. I believe both Genesis 1:1 and 2 Timothy 3:16.

More silly, empty accusations.

You accuse me of having flawed understanding, and when I answer that you simply say I am ridiculous (accusing me?) and do not support something or other. Wow!!!

YOU accused ME of "not accepting that all scripture comes from the Lord and the Lord created our world"... which has no basis whatsoever in fact and has no relevance to this conversation.

I did not say you are ridiculous; I said your accusations are ridiculous.

You constantly play the victim, but you also constantly misquote others and accuse them without warrant. That's the behaviour of a hypocrite.

Not one, all 23....

And the word is reveal, not revel.

And where is you evidence for what you have claimed and in case you did not know, there are only seven days in a week, not eight.

You say that the old covenant is cancelled. I didn't mean to accuse you of not listening to the Lord, in my post it does sound that way. I am sorry. I wanted to bring out that the Lord gave the old covenant, and if we listen to the Lord we acknowledge that it came from the Lord. The Lord stays the same always, so it seems to me that if the Lord stays the same, the old covenant could not be cancelled. I feel so sure that it was improved, and the new covenant made some things about it obsolete, but God didn't take back what He said in the old covenant.

Just as you and others may say that you believe it was cancelled, I should be able to state that I believe it was not cancelled, and why I think that.

I should think that as Christians together, we should be able to discuss scripture together without these blame, fighting games. Hypocrite?

Thanks so much for this list. In order to find this information I have ordered histories through the library, being sure of the credentials of the authors., but I didn't keep a list of the histories I read. They all said the same things you are saying.

Why is it boring CS1? I was asked for a list and that is what I gave. If you don't like me being co-operative, perhaps this is not the place for you. And I wonder why you need to repeat your feelings twice?

I just finished reading "Going to Church in the First Century by Banks. It is on the net in full. It was like sitting through their service, I am blessed. I've sent for some of the other books, what a wonderful list of books.

since i was the main one asking for a list of books, thanks for posting it.

items clear my feeling are not the issue but for you an ultra sensitive , it is. you remove the and place with a lol

1. Items clear my feeling????

2. As I am autistic, I am not ultra-sensitive.

3. I didn't remove anything.

Sorry CS1 it is not old as I have only just posted the list.

Yes, I apologize for not doing so originally. My mind was elsewhere and when atheists ask for sources I know that they are not interested in sources, only another opportunity to get back at you with some childish comment. I have to learn to shut off one and concentrate on the other.

so you are autistic? and you think that is a reason for you to be rude? my uncle is Autistic and he is not a rude person. Nor does he say HE is autistic or use ASD to be rude. You are an insult to those who have ASD. IF you know you have ASD then you know right from wrong, and therefore make's you fake.

well nigh impossible to discuss when a person goes from 'I am the only one who understands scripture' to 'you do not understand scripture' to 'nobody loves me and you are a meanie'

shrugs

FYI, autism manifests in MANY different ways. Your uncle's experience and behaviour are in no way normative for people with autism. There is a wide variety of effects, which is why it's now called autism spectrum disorder.

ever compare the behaviours of today with those in the Bible and that they didn't give
'excuses or (letter abbreviations) for them???
a rotten apple is a rotten apple -
a spoiled or neglected child is nothing more than a spoiled/neglected child -
an entitled person is nothing more that an entitled person, who ..... on everyone that they don't like,
or who disagrees with them, HELLO!!! -
self-centered, self-serving, selfish, etc.,need not man-made-up-letters' or 'excuses' to describe what they really are!!!,
they are, 'the children of darkness'...

people, get REAL, take responsibility for yourselves and the way that you 'behave'!!!
next, after the letters, they will be blaming Jesus for their 'un-godly-behaviours'...
