You then quote both Colossians 3:9 & Romans 12:2 – and as I read their words I found myself wondering why you yourself are not heeding the brilliant Wisdom of these verses – wondering why you & yours are ignoring their Truth in relation to how you are thinking about homosexuality & how you are […]
You state that “there is forgiveness for every sin … but there is a condition” for the same … Yes, Paul does indeed state this in the Bible, and this most certainly is an accurate reflection of his take on salvation therein. Of course, what are the consequences for all of humanity if such a […]
As far as “accepting [both] the Old & the New Testaments” as “the whole Truth of God’s Word” goes, you once again neglect the now well-established fact (see pages 26-31 previously) that Jesus did not come to strictly uphold or blindly support the Old Testament laws, but rather to aggressively & radically amend them – […]
As far as me “believing in a justice system” is concerned, I believe in the same one believed in by your own Lord & Savior — and that system was (and still is) built on forgiving “seventy times seven” (see Matthew 18:22 + Luke 6:36-37 et al) and openly “Loving our enemies” (see Matthew 5:40-48 […]
As far as your claim that sinners “send themselves to Hell”, I simply must inform you & yours that no “sinner” ever chooses to burn forever, my dear, and the fact that your version of God set up a system where it was almost guaranteed that billions of otherwise good Souls would have to endure […]
In closing, then, while you might claim that you “read the Bible as Truth”, your actions & your opinions show quite clearly that have not courageously tested those beliefs – and most certainly that you have never actually walked The Way of Jesus Christ. For it is a simple Truth (one that becomes flagrantly clear […]
As far as the book of Revelation is concerned, it is absolutely critical for any devout Christian believer (as well as any sincere Follower of The Way of Christ) to remember the simple, undeniable fact that there are almost no similarities at all between Jesus Christ as read in the Gospels and the “Jesus Christ” […]
Lucy: Ok Scaughdt, do you believe Jesus was God in the flesh? … And do you believe there is a penalty for sin? … And do you know what Jesus’ purpose was? Scaughdt: Oh yes, that’s right … It is your turn to ask me a question — even though you kind of fudged […]
“The good news of salvation in Jesus Christ is the fundamental message of the Scripture.” And in a sense, I would actually state that you are correct. Jesus does speak of a way through which each & every person can attain salvation in his “Kingdom of Heaven” (a Kingdom only described specifically by Jesus one […]
“[God] chose one people to demonstrate his special care, and from them to provide a Savior for the whole world.” Lucy! Of course He did no such thing … Indeed, for you or anyone else to make such an outrageous claim requires that you completely deny the vast majority of the entirety of human history! […]
“God sent his own son Jesus Christ to bear the awesome consequences of sin. … In the resurrection of Jesus, God demonstrates his victory over sin and calls people everywhere to identify with this victory by faith in Jesus.” Actually, my Friend, at least according to Jesus himself, there is no need whatsoever to […]
