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?

I like to repeate that to people who have their kids running wild at stores, etc.

Right wing love= tough love.. pragmatic, serious, rubber hits the road love..

Left wing love = wishy washy narcissistic love.. not for the Lovee' but for the love'or to GET a warm fuzzy feeling for themselves.. Like parents with spoiled children kind of love..

When Jesus comes back if he does.. hes gonna be pissed off or worse..
How do I know that?.. If I told you that I'd have to spank you..

You ask us, what if? To you we ask, what now? Now that you have been proven wrong, time and time again. There is no "what if" for you. That what if, IS.

As my sainted mother used to say, "Eventually, you run out of cheeks."

"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.

This is a typical ignorant liberal misunderstanding of the Bible. Jesus did indeed speak those word to his disciples ("And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: And he opened his mouth, and taught them...). It was important that his destiny with the cross be fulfilled -- that his disciples not interfere. But Jesus also said, "He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do . . ." [John 14:12, KJV]

One believer who came after Jesus was James, who wrote, "Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." Therefore, we resist the evil of satan, which is currently manifested in Liberalism in Islamo-facism.

Leave it to a rat to not understand that a general love of mankind does not necessarily translate into a requirement to accept an individual's actions as right. Nor, if the wrongness of his actions is pointed out to him and he refuses to repent and change his ways, are we required to remain in his presence.

Buh Bye!

Seriously, no one is expecting Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Bill ("Newly Rich") Clinton, or John Corzine to enter into the kingdom of God.
