"Some extremists full of hate use Christianity to justify their evil/hate filled ideolody. This resembels fanatical Islamists. The only difference is Islam in and of itself does not need much extrapolation to justify hate. REAL Christianity, however, is very far from these people who justify hate, killing,.... Jesus was meek, forgiving, loving of his ENEMIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Jesus was meek, forgiving, loving of his ENEMIES!!!!!!!!!"

Yes meek little Jesus said Matthew 23:29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,

30 And say, 'If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.'

31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.

32. Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.

33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell???????

34 Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:

25 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Able unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the Temple and the altar.

36. Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.


Oh how Jesus loved his enemies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK, now we have some different type of Christians, who are going to pick and chose verses from the bible to justify their hate and evil spirit - can you say jihad a la Jesus! You are either meek/forgiving/ and loving of your enemies; or you are not Christian! To argue whether Jesus was forgiving and loving of his enemies is to deny Jesus’ only unique feature. If you love your friends what good are you, even bad people do so; you need to love your enemy, or don’t call yourself a Christian.

Anyway, you just keep listening to these pimps on evangelical TV, and you will be "SAVED"!
