You next reference 1 Samuel 18:1, apparently completely unaware that this verse and its surrounding storyline actually sanctify homosexual relationships – by openly honoring the probable gay relationship between David & Jonathan! Indeed, the Scriptures devote more chapters to their beautiful love story than to any other human relationship in the entire Bible. Please consider […]

You next mention Romans 6:23 as well, which reads – “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Even though this verse has actually no direct relevance to this thread whatsoever (again – seeing as how Oliver Clyde Allen & his […]

Nearing the end of your list, you next cite “Revelation 21:84”, a verse which actually does not exist in the Bible at all … Of course, you probably meant Revelation 21:8, which reads – “But as for the cowardly, the unbelieving, the polluted, the murderers, the fornicators, the sorcerers, the idolaters, and all liars, their […]

Then you refer to “one man and one woman” – a reference to Genesis 2:24 (which speaks of the Elohim’s creation of Eve from Adam’s rib); a verse that reads – “Therefore a man leaves his father & his mother and clings to his wife, and they become one flesh.” Now on its face, […]

And finally (and yet again), you refer to a verse that we have discussed at length many times in this thread – the tale of Sodom & Gomorrah as mentioned in Genesis 18 & Genesis 19. And you do so even though (as I have already pointed out to you & yours ad nauseum herein) […]

“Jesus said ‘Let yes be yes and no be no’ — meaning that we are to let be true whatever is true.” YES, my Friend! And do you know what Jesus was referring to here more than anything else? Do you know which sin Jesus abhorred above all others and which misdeed he denounced […]

“I have found Luke 11 to be very insightful … When you teach others things that go against his Father then you are subject to being doubly called ‘Sons of Hell’, and such people are twice as bad as the Pharisees ever were.” Again, Dan – YES!!!!!!! Read Luke 11 again, my Friend – […]

“The Pharisees were the ones who liked to show off and come up with a different religion.” This statement is essentially true as well, my Friend, and it is well worth noting that the Pharisees were the ones – unlike Jesus Christ (and very much like you & yours) who were in favor of […]

“Jesus wants a relationship with us all personally, and not for us to be religious.” Amen to that, Brother Dan!!!!! Now please start walking that talk – by abandoning the condemnatorily religious non-way of Leviticus and following The Way of Christ instead! “‘The days are surely coming’, says the Lord, ‘when I will establish […]

“Jesus wasn’t into false religions or show-boating”, and I frankly like to think you are correct – certainly not false religions about himself, anyway – like the religion called “Christianity” that Paul started, for example (see Mark 10:18, John 7:16, John 12:44, John 8:50, John 8:54 etc etc etc) … “Why do you call […]
