Re: FAITH, HOPE and LOVE

May I ask where the arrogant attitude comes from? Who are you to presume to lecture us, or speak to us as if you were a Sunday School teacher for small children?

You have told us nothing about yourself yet. I want to know what church you attend, which Bible you use, and your pastor's name. I'd like to have a word with him.

And stop lecturing people. You are a guest here, and an unsaved one at that.

King James Bible
For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

[Rev. Jim Osborne]

Re: FAITH, HOPE and LOVE

Nice try, but in the example, Jesus is talking about calling our own True Christian(tm) brothers fools, not unsaved scum such as yourself.

For does not Jesus Himself call others fools?

Matthew 23:17 Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?

Also, don't complain about infractions.

[Samuel Coleridge]

Re: FAITH, HOPE and LOVE

I choose to believe Paul in this instead of Jesus in Matthew 5.

Galatians 5:18-24 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

Notice I struck through lasciviousness. I am given to lust, so I choose to believe that if I have dirty thoughts that I am still led by the Spirit.

Oh of course you do, after all, who was that silly Jesus guy, just some silly secondary guy running around on water.

Re: FAITH, HOPE and LOVE

Very good! So charity is love.

Love is the fulfillment of the law?

NO. It is specifically love of True Christians(tm) for each other. Not normal goody two shoes love of people in general. Look at the last several quotations, especially the last one.

NO. It is specifically love of True Christians™ for each other. Not normal goody two shoes love of people in general. Look at the last several quotations, especially the last one.

44But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
47And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?

Where do you see the word charity in those verses? You specifically asked for the biblical definition of charity. I supplied the verses for you.

Why are you repeating the same thing that has already been explained to you by others? Are you a broken record that keeps playing the same track over and over?

Why did you leave out the next verse?

48Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

No I'm not but I do love Him dearly. I know the Lord Jesus Christ is real and I can testify to His love and the mercy and grace He had on me. Although, a lot of people here don't really believe in Him and insist on mocking GOD. I testify to His faithfulness and genuine love.

So calling you a false Christian (which you are, since you don't even read the KJV Bible, let alone follow it) is the same as mocking God now?

Are you off your medications?

Do you follow all of the Bible? Every word right down to the period?

You see, that is a trick question. Perhaps a better way is to just follow Jesus and find out what pertains to you based upon His knowledge of your knowledge.

In other words, pick and choose what you feel like following by listening to your own voice disguised in your head.
