“I think it is somewhat silly that you have appointed yourself to be the custodian and regulator of what FReepers discuss on a theological basis at all.”
Who says I was regulating it? We have a guy pimping a bunch of articles from a flaky religious cult ranging from issues of the Trinity down to threads on “counterfeit Christianity” (you and me). I posted a warning on this thread that it was from the UCG. In fact, it’s (a warning placed) been done in virtually every thread he’s started, and not all by me. I just did it on 3 threads. Other people have cited his United Church of God membership in the others.
“What I seem to gather from your rantings is the “same ole same ole” that the Main Stream Church has been palming off as Christianity for over 1700 years now. It is nothing but Regurgitated Paganism that seeks a home between the pages of scripture and continues to be.......quite unsuccessful.”
Oh, 1700 years? So you’re also anti-Trinitarian. Good to know.
“When you find passages in scripture that inform us that the other eleven tribes of Israel did not receive the instructions for the Sabbaths, Festivals and Dietary regulations as well......you’ll be sure and let us all know?”
Is this a reference to British Israelism that Armstrong promotes? I quoted Romans 14, and a few other passages, that don’t seem all that concerned about dietary regulations or festival days.
I do! Sending out "All Points" bulletins on a FReeper's postings..... who has been around from almost the beginning, considered to be a genuinely nice person, a conservative in thought and practice and someone who you should be glad to call your friend.....but constantly ridicule because of his beliefs? This is not an attempt to regulate what some folks should...and should not read? Shame on you!
Good grief. If you don't agree with him or his theology....then debate him. But stop the childishness. It makes you look silly!
Oh, 1700 years? So you’re also anti-Trinitarian. Good to know.
Yes...........I think the idea of a Trinitarian God Head is pagan! Especially since scripture tells us [Deuteronomy 6:4] exactly what He is. He is further defined by [John 4:24]. How some folks think Christianity began by copying the Greeks, the Romans, the Egyptians, the Babylonians and other ancient religions.....arriving at a Trinity.............is just ignoring the facts!
Is this a reference to British Israelism that Armstrong promotes?
I don't know. Because scripture shows the Jews (the ones who started Judaism) as only one of twelve tribes given the Torah.......is this a justification for Armstrong? I think not....and I also think British Israelism is somewhat off kilter.
I quoted Romans 14, and a few other passages, that don’t seem all that concerned about dietary regulations or festival days.
Your interpretation of Romans 14 is just the "Same ole....same ole".....especially the purposely mistranslated Greek..... so delicately inserted by the biased interpreters to bring it in line with the paganism of the Main Stream Church.
......and then that puny little ruse, attempting to draw Mr. Robinson into the fray..........just silly.
