Jesus is God, silly woman. But I don't expect someone from Iceland to know about the Bible. I'm amazed you can read.

Many people use the story of the woman taken in adultery as an excuse to not ever preach to anyone. The simple truth of the matter is that Christ not only preached at the woman, but also at all of her accusers. By saying "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her," Christ was not speaking of someone who was entirely free from any and all sin, as there was no such person other than Christ himself. The law of Moses called for the stoning of a person who was caught in adultery and that stoning had to be done by someone who was not guilty of the sin with which the accused was charged. Who Christ is referring to here is someone who is not guilty of some scandalous sin and more particularly, adultery. Christ called the generation in which He lived an adulterous and sinful generation, meaning, at least partially, that adultery was extremely prevalent. Therefore, as was shown by each of the accusers leaving without casting any stone, each of those accusers was just as guilty of adultery, if not more so, than the woman. He preached to them about their hypocrisy, convicting each one of them of their sins to such an extent that none could stand their own conscience. Also, by the very words "Go and sin no more," Christ preached repentance to the woman. Christ did not say "Go and continue living your wicked and adulterous life and I will grant you salvation anyway".



Further, by telling him that was without sin to cast the first stone, Christ showed to the woman that He was merciful, and to her accusers, he showed that He is the searcher of hearts. Christ, not only by His words, but also by His actions, preached that salvation is by grace and not by works. According to the law of Moses, this woman was fully deserving of being stoned to death for her adultery.

i don't know these fact and figures and i'm pretty sure you do not either. it really isn't important to me other than the fact to disprove the theory that english is the most widely used language in the world. Besides there are plenty of diplomats and business men in the world who refuse to speak anything other than their native language when discussing. And how should I know how many people in Iceland speak Mandarin, there are plenty of immigrants from Asia here and then there are plenty of other people who are interested in having an useful asset in the businessworld.

Clearly, your cruelty to the other posters on this thread indicates your safe ticket to Hell, unless you repent. Oh, and I will not be going to Hell because I do not believe that it exists.

What further proof do you need women cannot understand anything unless a man explains it to them?

I haven't read all of the posts above, so I may be repeating something .




First of all, that is the Norwegian flag.

1. I think there is a Baptist church in Iceland, I'm not a 100% sure, but almost.
2. Iceland is mostly ice, try google if you don't believe me.
   
   This is a picture of Iceland that indicates where there is ice,
   
   This is a picture of Greenland,
3. I don't know enough about our financial history to disagree with you.
4. She most surtently is not a hero, not to me, nor other people my age!
5. I disagree with this. But if you are going to make an example, make it a good one. We had a woman for an President.
6. Oh no, we don't use guns to hurt other people! What a horrible nation! Oh no, we treat people if they are hurt, rich, poor and even immigrants. What is wrong with us!
7. Yes, gay marriage is allowed here. But our priests don't do it.
8. You know as well as I do that we don't worship Satan.
9. I have a penis, you have a penis, almost 45% of all mankind has a penis! What's the big deal?

So before commenting on how terrible nation we are, try thinking a bit instead of pulling words out of your ASS!

Is there a forum at one of your Satan worshiping places of Hell that we can flood with the truth? It's really simple we are True Christians®, now you can take our advice and abandon your primitive beliefs and accept Jesus or go to Hell. It is your choice.

Yes, it was.

I love the way you try to tiptoe around the issue. You obviously must know the number of people who speak English in your country is much higher than the number who speak Chinese - and for a reason.

With a knowledge of English, I can go to any part of the world and find someone who will understand me. Try doing that with only a knowledge of Chinese, or better yet, Icelandic

But I shouldn't expect more from a woman without a husband to guide her. I'll pray for you.

101 well now we can understand a bit more, we are dealing with the mentally handicapped. I am so very sorry I will type slower so you can keep up.

Cruelty has nothing to do with it. We are saved by faith in Jesus and nothing else.

Well James, if your church is indeed "little", then why would anyone credit it as the correct belief? I do not worship nor do I believe in Satan. I am anything but a religious apologist, as yourself, and am agnostic - there is no proof of a higher power including that of the Baptist Christian God and/or Jesus. Please show me the proof of a 'Hell' being real besides Biblical texts - it is somewhat sad that many people quote the Bible without ensuring its authenticity.

Please do not call my beliefs primitive because I choose to question beliefs that people claim are a priori correct.

i for one choose hell, since 99.99999% of the people seem to be going there. it sounds like a party.

No. That is entirely false in regards to the Bible (I will assume that the Bible is correct in this post). You must repent for your sins (please look those up if you haven't already) if you wish to be accepted by Jesus, as you said yourself.

"Love thy neighbor as thyself." I love you, but I do not believe in your relentless, venomous attacks on other posters on this forum.

Yes, I sure can believe you, what with all the citations and references and evidence you've given me for these numbers you just pulled out of your ass

[garden of eden]

first of all, mental handicapped people tend to have an iq between 50-69, i'm pretty sure that's where you fit in. and in case you hadn't noticed, the usa has a lower average with many more people. your attempts at intellectual insults is really laughable. stick to the non-substantiated scripture, it's where you do best at annoying people.

If you think you are in good shape, just look in the mirror. No need to get defensive and make things up.
