    Just have faith and you'll get to heaven-works don't matter one bit!

    James 2:24 "See how a person is justified by works and not by faith alone."

    Actually, this is from that Christ-mocking hindaloo, Mahatmacoat Gandhi. God's Word says that we are to hate the sinner as well:

    Psalm 139:21-22: Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
    Amen, Pastor! These limp-wristed false Christians run around mindlessly spewing lies like this, and they are just plain LYING about what the Bible says!

    Matthew 13
    [38] The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
    [39] The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
    [40] As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
    [41] The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
    [42] And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

    I don't think there are any contradictions in the Bible, which is why I was pointing out another verse in order to further interpret the verses the good Pastor had already provided.

    You use Scripture to interpret Scripture.

    If you find something you don't understand, search for more Scripture on that topic to help you understand God's Holy Word.


    There are no contradictions in the Bible.

    In fact, it is an abominable and astonishing blasphemy to even think that.

    But then, what's the explanation? How do you reconcile it?

    We don't take kindly to people who twist the Bible around to make it sound internally contradictory.

    Since God created all of us, He can't hate any of us, or at least He can't hate any of us for being the way He created us.

    Of course He can. He's God and may do what He likes.

    Proverbs 16:4: The LORD hath made all [things] for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.

    Romans 9:20-24: Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed [it], Why hast thou made me thus? Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? [What] if God, willing to shew [his] wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory, Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?

    Things went downhill from there... Who was the notorious pope when the East-West Schism occurred in 1054, Leo IX ? Then there was Gregory XI and a couple of other popes in 1376. With all the popes, anti-popes and whatever, the RCC has mucked up Christainaity to the point where we have all the diferent churches we see today.
    And yet only one true one.

    There are ministers who actually say this in church now; methodists mostly. I have yet to find ANY passage in the KJB that backs that silly claim up. I'd be very skeptical of any woman who say they read that in the Bible, since most of them can't read anyway.
    Right. We are to love our wives as Christ loved the church (Eph. 5:25), i.e., as the Almighty loves those whom He has every right to cast into hell for not devoting their lives to flattering Him in just the right way. Christ is God, and there is no respect of persons with God (Romans 2:11). I trust that you see where I'm going with this.

    The Lord moves in mysterious ways.

    This is actually from a hymn by William Cowper, an Angler-can't beset by the demons of severe depression. According to the Bible, God's ways are mysterious only to those who hate Him:

    Romans 1:19-21: Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed [it] unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, [even] his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

    Jesus told us not to judge.

    No, He didn't. Pastor Billy-Reuben has eloquently debunked that myth here.
