just so all you who are not used to interacting with studyman, here are some of his beliefs- the Pharisees are devil worshipers, the thief on the cross already knew and accepted Christ, Acts 15 puts the gentiles under the law, and all translations are corrupted , except the one he uses, but does not share this with all us who have been deceived by catholic traditions.
I understand how much of God's Word offends you G9. I am truly sorry.
John 8:
43 Why do ye not understand my speech?
even because ye cannot hear my word.
44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
These are the Word's of the Christ that you hate so much. It's not to late to repent and turn to Him.
Luke 23:
40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds:
but this man hath done nothing amiss.
This thief most certainly knew who Jesus was before that moment. If you want to use this verse to tell tales about others, it is your work. Maybe your Jesus inspired you to do such things, but the Word which became Flesh, the Messiah of the Bible, actually teaches against such things.
Acts 15:
4 And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and
of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.
5 But there rose up certain of the
sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command
them to keep the law of Moses.
Jesus said the Pharisees were liars and Hypocrites and that they omitted important parts of His Commandments.
Matthew 23:
4 For they (Pharisees, not God) bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay
them on men's shoulders; but they
themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye
make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin,
and have omitted the weightier matters of the law,
judgment, mercy, and faith:
these ought ye to have done, and
not to leave the other undone.
You can preach that the Pharisees were all the sudden loyal and obedient to God after they killed Him if you like. Maybe your Jesus inspires this in you.
But the Word which became Flesh, the Messiah of the Bible, teaches the opposite of them and Peter knew it.
Acts 15:
10 Now therefore
why tempt ye God, to put a yoke (heavy burdens of the Pharisees) upon the neck (Shoulders) of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
It is the Christ and His Prophets that says the Mainstream preachers of their time corrupted God's Words, I just believe what they say, I don't judge Him as untrue as do you.
Jer. 14:
14 Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them:
they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought
, and the deceit of their heart.
Jer. 5:
30 A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land;
31 The prophets prophesy falsely,
and the priests bear rule by their means;
and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?
Matt. 15:
7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,
8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth,
and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
9 But in vain they do worship me
, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men (Not God)
So as is your custom, you rail against God through those who simply post His Words. I might remind you that He is the only way to Eternity. Your rejection of Him and His Word's will lead to no good thing G9.
