What if you right wingers got it all wrong? (ZOT!!! You’re crispy in your own private Idaho.)

"You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.' But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you." (Matthew 5:38-42, NIV).

"But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you..."

"It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God" (Matthew 19:24).

When I read FR I see a lot of people wallowing in vengeance. I see a lot of people glorifying and advocating for war. I see people consumed with bloodlust and calls for executions. I see a lot of people who seem to think Jesus was concerned only about sex. I see people who don't follow his teachings. I see people who are almost totally in opposition to the main teachings of Jesus.

So I ask you: what if you have it all wrong?

Sorry, I don't believe in the "new testament." It's way too liberal for me. I find that uncomplicates things quite nicely!

Heh. I'm with you on that.

....I see a lot of people wallowing in vengeance. I see a lot of people glorifying and advocating for war. I see people consumed with bloodlust and calls for executions.

We see all of the above, but we see it coming from those who hate us. You see it too, but you choose to ignore it.

I feel sorry for these "citizens of the world" who have obviously renounced their American citizenship.

Kill the heathens! Destroy their cities and let them never be rebuilt forever! Take their women-children for slaves! Turn their wives into pillars of salt!

Then come home and offer an Whole Burnt Offering!

And I quote to you John 1:1. Do you believe that is true? If so, then you must also believe that Jesus was THERE when God ordered every man, woman, and child in AI to be put to the sword. And you know what He said? "Yes" and "Amen." That's all He could say. Jesus was no pacifist namby-pamby limp wrist.

"It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God"

LOL! Often cited by athiest marxists as their benevolent biblical excuse for the murderous government-run theft they call socialism.

“You’ll never get into heaven with all that wealth, so even though I don’t believe in heaven, I’m going to take all your wealth at gunpoint and do with it what I please, for your own good. Then you’ll be able to get into that imaginary fantasyland you call heaven, so turn it over or I'll shoot you dead.”

The typical hypocritical greedy mindset of the left, for generations. If you want to fund your goofy, evil, counterproductive social reengineering schemes, get a job.

You're ignorant of what it says. The Bible makes it clear about holding men accountable and punishment under laws written by men (Govt). And Jesus is the Word. So here you go, troll:

Romans 13

Submission to the Authorities

    ¹Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. ²Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. ³For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and he will commend you. ⁴For he is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. ⁵Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also because of conscience. ⁶This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God's servants, who give their full time to governing. ⁷Give everyone what you owe him: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor

Luke 22:35-36
35Then Jesus asked them, "When I sent you without purse, bag or sandals, did you lack anything?"
"Nothing," they answered.

36He said to them, "But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.
