He thinks you are disingenuously criticizing him through the use of “love and peace” language...a sort of “texas style” “Bless your heart” if I read his post accurately! I thought your post was great and it convicted me to change my tact!
Thank you, and may God bless you.
The shedding of Jesus’ blood reaches forward and backward in time as we reckon time, God is outside of time so for him the shedding of Jesus’ blood was efficacious the moment he purposed it! Hence was the thief saved as were all those who were justified in times past by their faith!
“And He said that the real believers would be few in number”
He said that “few there be that find that straight and narrow way that leads to life everlasting”...this was prior to his crucifixion. As Revelation points to “multitudes from every tribe and nation being saved out of the Tribulation” that term “few” may be somewhat relative to how we understand numbers... Certainly billions may never be saved but many hundreds of millions(few compared to Billions) certainly shall be! What surprises will surface at the judgment? Certainly most won’t have their names in the book of Life after the 1000 year reign...but a few just might!
I don't regard saying it as a test of the legitimacy of my Christianity. I also don't acknowledge you as authorized to test my Christianity at all - let alone test me in anything. The problem is you, not Jesus Christ. Your lack of shame is appalling, and your arrogance is filthy.
The closest thing you remind me of, actually, is the Islamic Sharia police. You demand religious tests, you wield the bible like a weapon, you claim authority to attack my faith, and you accept no responsibility for your outrageous behavior, which includes contempt for any other cultural appreciation as evidence of heresy. In fact, you give every impression of being a book burner and a theocratic maniac.
You demand a triply repeated religious pledge? Okay - I reject you in the name of Jesus Christ, I reject you in the name of Jesus Christ, I reject you in the name of Jesus Christ.
Get thee behind me.
It was why you said what you said.
Judas betrayed Jesus with a kiss. You tried love bombing me to stop me from defending myself from slander.
Nasty.
You know exactly what you did, and why. You just don't like that I know it too - and am calling you on it.
I must say, the hatred and abuse I've received here for simply quoting Jesus's greatest commandment AS His greatest commandment has been astonishing. it reminds me of the attacking orc army in LOTR. I am appalled - and disgusted.
I speculated that viciousness hiding as Christianity creates liberals. I had no idea how right I am, and the proof is on this very thread.
I’m sorry you think that. It was not my intent. I think both sides have been overheated, and I responded to the last post at that time.
I don’t hate you, nor wish evil upon you. I honestly meant what I posted, whether you believe it or not.
Peace,

Oh lots of things can be said “in His name”....
Well I forgive you....
Jesus Christ is come in the flesh! What you think of me isn’t that important, but it might be for others watching how 1John4 might be applied!
We are all dust and I thank God that he is mindful of it lest we all have been destroyed at the least sign of his displeasure with us! Very well, I leave you the first stone with which to cast at me...I shall have already gone before it hits its mark leaving nothing but a clattering echo in your mind!
And that, right there, is the terrorism you promote as Christianity.
I do not forgive you, mocker. The only ones who court destruction are those like you who seek to harm Christ's children. He said so, and He meant it. You will not escape.
wiiiiiiiiiiizz....clang......clattering echos in an empty street...
(and let the wind say....he couldn’t say it...he couldn’t say Jesus Christ is come in the flesh)
You wouldn’t want to miss this, as per your insight ...
He’s a wingnut
Good reason to avoid religion threads
It’s funny he thinks I’m judgemental muscular cultural Christian
He must not read my posts
I get lectured frequently for being too hedonist
No if doofus had said that I’m very provincionally southern and racially impolitic then guilty
HMMMmmm...
Matthew 25:13 "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.
It appears that IF it could be figgered out; we'd not have to Keep Watch.
Not ONLINE?
Why do I have to non-virtually look it up?
Surely AMAZON would carry it; right?
Is BECAUSE??
Way to quadruple down!
BTW; what causes YOUR vicious, unjustified slander and hatred that is directed my way?
Love?
Thanks for the info; as I thought it was gas.
"Do not think it strange...
you are acting demonically.
No, you're no Christian.
you are a fraud.
Come on; tell us what you REALLY feel!
DARED to oppose...
