LIBERTARIAN PURITY TEST ~~ I got a 16. LOL. ~~ jude24

Personally, I don't think it's that funny (No Offense meant, at all).

And I'm not here to lecture you -- I respect you a lot. You wanna be a "16", that's okay by me -- some of my best friends are Socialists (grin). You can be a "Liberation Theologian" if you wanna; I like you, I'll still enjoy your company.

BUT, I'll tell you what -- study the Torah, and then apply the LIBERTARIAN PURITY TEST against the Law of Israel as you understand it.

Every Theologian I have challenged to apply the Test found that Old-Covenant Israel rates at least a 115 or above. Now, I am willing to admit that the New Covenant adopts some Theonomic Changes; but going from a 115-119 rating to a 16 represents a Radical change, indeed.

Tell you what -- go through the Test, and tell me how you think that Apostle Paul would have scored (remembering that Paul was a Righteous Pharisee, and did NOT impugn the basic morality and regulations of the Old Covenant). If you think that I, at a 98-107, am far off of his mark -- then tell me so, and tell me why. I will listen to your instruction. ON THE OTHER HAND -- if you find that you, at a 16, are far off of Apostle Paul's mark... then tell me, why would you be happy with that?
