RnMomof7: You may see it that way, but if we are seeking truth and to find how God determines who is our brother.. The goats are not my brethren, the teaching of the universal "brotherhood of man " is not found in scripture.. That is a rather new non biblical theology

RnMomof7: Well at least I am not calling a child of satan my brother

Fascinating. Have the Beatitudes been redacted from yet another Calvinist Bible? Has Matthew 25 been purged? Has the Sermon on the Plain been shredded? Have the Two Commandments of Jesus been repudiated?

The goats are not my brethren, the teaching of the universal "brotherhood of man " is not found in scripture..

27God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. 28'For in him we live and move and have our being.' As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.'

29"Therefore since we are God's offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone—an image made by man's design and skill.
--Acts 17:27-29 (New International Version)

Paul was talking about the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man, and he was doing it in scripture.

The Gospels don't apply because they're special. They were predestined to ignore them.
