To: .45 Long Colt

The Gospels have the words of Christ in them. I’ll take them over the letters of St. Paul any day.

Is there some reason you do not like the words of Jesus?

This is as silly as the guy who has written the book demonstrating from Scripture that Sola Scriptura is wrong. Jesus said, "No man comes to the Me unless the Father draws him. And, I will raise him up on the last day." Unless you are a universalist, some of the human race has not been "drawn" and those who have not cannot come to Christ, irrespective of what they think is happening to them.

Recall, Jesus also said, "Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?' And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.'" At least there will be some who don't realize that it is more important for Jesus to know them than it is for them to know Him (and do all kinds of religious things). I love the words of Jesus...in context.

It’s not either/or.

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.” (2 Timothy 3:16)

Is there some reason that you made that statement? Where is your proof that .45 Long Colt does not like the words of Jesus? I fail to see even any hint of that. I really fail to see why you say that - can you explain, using his words?
