That is Christian compassion, and that is what is not being demonstrated by 5 of the protestants on this thread.

Could you clarify what it is you think IS being shown?

[Elsie]

True

[Elsie]

What formal training have you had in New Testament Greek?

What formal training has Congress had in Constitutional law?

[verga]

It was a simple question that required a simple yes or no. I believe that you are projecting, unlike many of the prots on this thread I have no guile. I say exactly what I mean.

[Elsie]

There ya go!

[Elsie]

What level of formal training do you have?

HMMMmmm...

How much does one need?

>> “I was referring to those of all religions who’ve gotten over it” <<

Well, I guess its victims will get over it at the first resurrection when they notice the absence of papists on the sea of fire and glass.

[Elsie]

There ya go again!

[Elsie]

I was GOING to post that!

[Elsie]

Just don’t be posting those catholic bashing scriptures!

Ok...
I'll solve the problem---

[verga]

There is nothing wrong with being self taught. There is something wrong with not admitting it.

Of course I am pretty sure I wouldn't go to a self taught brain surgeon. I noticed you left out the medical aspect of my point. One can only wonder why.

[Elsie]

I must commend you on you ability to twist the words of others.

Then now is YOUR chance to shine!

Please list the UN-Christian compassion detected.

>> “Maybe here is where we delve into semantics, but I the law is indeed what, as Christians we should strive for. And every single time we fall short we need to look back at the Cross.” <<

.
I think that is what Yeshua meant when he said that he writes the law on our hearts, but what about when someone falls into deliberately and habitually disobeying his commandments? (I don’t mean out of ignorance)

[Elsie]

That would be the person who made the snotty comment that is projecting.

HMMMmmm...

That is Christian compassion, and that is what is not being demonstrated by 5 of the protestants on this thread.

There's snot...

 

 

 

and then there is SNOT!!!

No, he didn’t leave it out, he pointed out that alternative medicine is far more competent and effective.

[editor-surveyor]

LOL!

Do you think he’ll “get it?”

No I didn't. Please re-read.

I don't mind folks with higher learning, so long as it is real - Most of the time (like this time, it seems) appeals to ivory towers are just a way to say, "Shuddup and listen to your betters." I find that to be a less than adequate argument. Most things are not as complicated as one is lead to believe.

And btw, Greek is not brain surgery either.

[...] still others launch out into the deep unafraid... for they know WHO they have believed in.

AMEN! Many folks are just too afraid to put much sail in the Wind.

What formal training have you had in New Testament Greek?

Accredited lifelong Greek Scholars have studied the Greek and translated it into almost 300 versions of the Bible in the easy to read and understand English language...

So what do you bring to the table??? You got something over on these expert Greek scholars??? You know something none of them know???

[roamer_1]

I actually had to use the tractor with a boom pole to push it.

Musta been out of dynamite and duck tape, eh?

Whoops! What am I thinkin'? You can't use duck tape for a chicken coop!

Carry on... ; )
