I have neither said nor implied that, and I do not believe it.

I'm so glad to hear that. I just scrolled back and couldn't find any unanswered questions from you in this thread. Only one question, in fact, at all: you asked if I was trying to justify homosexual behavior. I answered that very clearly that I am not. Again, evangelicals are so busy worried...

Sure, and thanks for asking. I really appreciate your interaction here. To me, a Christian is someone who follows, to the best of their ability, the examples set by Jesus, as set forth in the Bible. Obviously, no one is perfect. Even Paul said "For I do not do the good I want to do, but the...

If someone is behaving like Nazis, then yes, telling them that they're behaving like Nazis would be telling them the truth. For example, claiming that "the law of the land" is more important than God's law. This is exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about. One would think that in a group...

Well, some people do. And those who don't will burn. Because that's the only Jesus through whom salvation comes. If you want a nice, fluffy Jesus who doesn't care if you hurt others, you can go join a social club. That's not Christianity.

I believe that a lot of people here don't realize how wrong they are. And they need to be reminded that GOD'S LAW always supersedes the law of the land. And yes, I feel called to afflict the comfortable and comfort the afflicted, just like the prophets of old. If you think Scripture is...

JTB, your posts are spot on. I wish there were more like you in the world. I don't understand why so many so-called Christians don't get it. And why just because I disagree with them, now I must be a left-winger.

I apologize. Anger is definitely one of my issues.

So, you would have been a good little Nazi citizen, turning in your neighbors if they were hiding Jews, wouldn't you have? After all, they were breaking the law of the land, and turning them in to the nazis for immediate extermination would be following the law of the land. Scripture is clear...

I'm not condemning anyone. Simply quoting Scripture. If you feel condemned by Scripture, that is a good thing.

This is exactly what I have been saying for several days now.

Merriam Webster defines "liberal" thusly: Liberal (adjective) a: marked by generosity : a liberal giver b: given or provided in a generous and openhanded way : a liberal meal If you don't like a worldly source, the Bible has these things to say: Proverbs 11:25 A liberal man will be enriched...

Yes, I am a Christian. Yes, I do get angry when people flaunt their fake "Christianity," pretending to be Christian while hating Jesus and everything he preached about. Perhaps I need to calm down, but Paul said it's better to be hot or cold than luke warm, so I'm not sure it's such a bad...

Yeah, well, I won't apologize for getting upset when people spit on the Word of God.

As for being Christian, counting how many people of color I know or you know is about as disgustingly anti Christian, and racist as you can get. Nope. Nothing in Scripture to support your view. Plenty in Scripture to support mine, that ignoring the poor puts you on the wrong side of God...

So you think when the Bible says "If you don't work, you shouldn't eat," it only refers to "those other" people, not people like you. When Jesus condemns sinners, he must be talking about OTHER people, not you. You're perfect. It's OTHER people who have problems. This is exactly the kind of...

You are absolutely 100% correct that you shouldn't take my word for it. I have absolutely no authority. I haven't taken a science class since 1980. So here are some sources for you: https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019...

As do I, and I will try to address your question. You misunderstood me if you thought this is what I was saying in my OP. I did not intend to imply that "only selfish people will be in the lake of fire." I do not believe that, and I don't think my OP reflects that. You know what? I think I'd...

So the fact that we have significant evidence that unvaccinated people DO increase the risk, even to vaccinated people, and especially to immuno-compromised people who can't get the vaccine due to various medical conditions -- means that if a person CHOOSES not to get the vaccine because they...

I actually did a google search. I saw a lot of articles from known tabloid sources, biased sources (biased on both sides), and other non-reputable articles, but not one peer-reviewed or scientific / medical article. Nothing. I haven't ignored anything. I have sought information. I'm actually...
