"The nutjobs have already covered that base.

We have been instructed by the finest of Reformed apologists that all of the Apostles and even Jesus are irrelevant. The only thing we need to know about Christianity are carefully excised snippets of Paul and Isaiah. As delivered to us by Calvin and the Westminster Confession of Faith."

It seems as though some of that water from the Tiber has gotten in your ears. Calling me a nutjob (not altogether incorrect) seems to be exactly what Jesus was referring to in that RCC favorite, the Sermon on the Mount. Didn't that just qualify you for the "hell of fire"? (Matt. 5:22) And here I thought you actually believed this stuff.

It's a little warmer than in the waterpark we just visited.Calling me a nutjob (not altogether incorrect) seems to be exactly what Jesus was referring to in that RCC favorite, the Sermon on the Mount.

I went back through all of Matthew and didn't discover that the NAB listed repercussions for transgressions against Dutchboy88. Didn't that just qualify you for the "hell of fire"? (Matt. 5:22) And here I thought you actually believed this stuff.

Matthew 5:22 17 But I say to you, whoever is angry 18 with his brother will be liable to judgment, and whoever says to his brother, 'Raqa,' will be answerable to the Sanhedrin, and whoever says, 'You fool,' will be liable to fiery Gehenna.

But you mistake me, my friend. I am not angry with you. I never said Raqa since I am afraid of the Reformed Sanhedrin and I never called you a fool. I have ever held open the hand of eternal friendship with you and only ask that you permit me to chum with you.

And here I thought you actually believed this stuff.

From the point of view of the Reformed, sadly, I do.
