Re: A message from JESUS!

Job 13:7 "Will ye speak wickedly for God? and talk deceitfully for him?"

He doesn't like that.

Revelation 22:18 "For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:"

Good luck to you.

Re: A message from JESUS!

Here you go (I don't use KJV, I know you like it, so click on the link thingy on the verse number that pops up and it will read in the version you like)

Old Testament laws don't apply anymore:

Luke 16:16
God's Law and the Prophets climaxed in John;
Now it's all kingdom of God—the glad news
and compelling invitation to every man and woman.

--

Jesus said to love and forgive:

John 13:34 "Let me give you a new command: Love one another. In the same way I loved you, you love one another.

--

Jesus has a serious problem with divorce:

Matthew 19:6 Because God created this organic union of the two sexes, no one should desecrate his art by cutting them apart."

--

Divorce is not allowable for any reason except maybe infidelity:

Matthew 5:32 If you divorce your wife, you're responsible for making her an adulteress (unless she has already made herself that by sexual promiscuity).

--

Pray in the privacy of your own closet:

Matthew 6:
6"Here's what I want you to do: Find a quiet, secluded place so you won't be tempted to role-play before God. Just be there as simply and honestly as you can manage. The focus will shift from you to God, and you will begin to sense his grace.



--


Otherwise you are a hypocrite:


Matthew 6: 5"And when you come before God, don't turn that into a theatrical production either. All these people making a regular show out of their prayers, hoping for stardom! Do you think God sits in a box seat?



--


Sell everything you own:


Luke 18: 22When Jesus heard that, he said, "Then there's only one thing left to do: Sell everything you own and give it away to the poor. You will have riches in heaven. Then come, follow me."



--


Give to the poor:


Luke 12:33"Be generous. Give to the poor. Get yourselves a bank that can't go bankrupt, a bank in heaven far from bankrobbers, safe from embezzlers, a bank you can bank on.

--

If you are comfortable now, don't expect to be in the next life:

Matthew 19:23 As he watched him go, Jesus told his disciples, "Do you have any idea how difficult it is for the rich to enter God's kingdom?

--

Jesus is not a capitalist:

Matthew 6:
24"You can't worship two gods at once. Loving one god, you'll end up hating the other. Adoration of one feeds contempt for the other. You can't worship God and Money both.



--


Jesus is not American:


John 19:21 The Jewish high priests objected. "Don't write," they said to Pilate, "'The King of the Jews.' Make it, 'This man said, "I am the King of the Jews."'"



--


Jesus is not okay with bombing anyone:


Matthew 5:43-45 You're familiar with the old written law, 'Love your friend,' and its unwritten companion, 'Hate your enemy.' I'm challenging that. I'm telling you to love your enemies. Let them bring out the best in you, not the worst. When someone gives you a hard time, respond with the energies of prayer, for then you are working out of your true selves, your God-created selves.



--


Even terrorists:


Luke 6:27-30"To you who are ready for the truth, I say this: Love your enemies. Let them bring out the best in you, not the worst. When someone gives you a hard time, respond with the energies of prayer for that person. If someone slaps you in the face, stand there and take it. If someone grabs your shirt, giftwrap your best coat and make a present of it. If someone takes unfair advantage of you, use the occasion to practice the servant life. No more tit-for-tat stuff. Live generously.
31-34"Here is a simple rule of thumb for behavior: Ask yourself what you want people to do for you; then grab the initiative and do it for them! If you only love the lovable, do you expect a pat on the back? Run-of-the-mill sinners do that. If you only help those who help you, do you expect a medal? Garden-variety sinners do that. If you only give for what you hope to get out of it, do you think that's charity? The stingiest of pawnbrokers does that.
35-36"I tell you, love your enemies. Help and give without expecting a return. You'll never—I promise—regret it. Live out this God-created identity the way our Father lives toward us, generously and graciously, even when we're at our worst. Our Father is kind; you be kind.

Re: A message from JESUS!

It would have been nice if your little picture included the relevant scripture so that I didn't have to bounce around to see whether your statements are Biblically sound or not.

[Pastor Ezekiel]

Re: A message from JESUS!

That's not Jesus, that's some hippie fag. Jesus has blond hair and blue eyes like I do.

And Jesus hates perverts, there's no mistaking that!

Rom.1:26-27
For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature. And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

[Jack O'fagan]

Re: A message from JESUS!

Old Testament law doesn't count? What do you think Jesus meant when He said this?


Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Re: A message from JESUS!

To prayer in schools, I say:

1 Samuel 12:23

23 Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way

James 1:5

5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

Pretty sure if you are in school, you NEED help on the wisdom end of things.

James 5:16

16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.



He didn't want us to fight terrorists? Really? What about

Luke 22:36

36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one

John 2:15

15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew the tables

Son, a scourge is a whip. He made a whip withmultiple lashes and went to work on those theiving moneychangers. Don't think for a minute he will stand by the wicked doing wrong to the good.

To the Homosexual thing. That is a lie. Jesus was pretty clear about it. I will stick with only NT since you want to cherrypick here and declare the OT to be false.

Romans 1:27-32

27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their alust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28And even as they did not like to aretain God in their knowledge, God bgave them over to a creprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

29Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, awickedness, covetousness, bmaliciousness; full of envy, murder, cdebate, ddeceit, malignity; whisperers,

30aBackbiters, haters of God, bdespiteful, cproud, dboasters, inventors of evil things, edisobedient to parents,

31Without aunderstanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

32Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of adeath, not only do the same, but bhave cpleasure in them that do them

1 Corinthians 6:9 I love the foresight into the flaming faries of today. NOR THE EFFEMINATE!

9Know ye not that the aunrighteous shall not binherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither cfornicators, nor idolaters, nor dadulterers, nor eeffeminate, nor fabusers of themselves with mankind

1 Timothy 1:8-12

8But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;

9Knowing this, that the alaw is not made for a brighteous man, but for the clawless and ddisobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

10For awhoremongers, for bthem that cdefile themselves with mankind, for dmenstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound edoctrine;

11According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my atrust.

12And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath aenabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;

Jude 6-8

6And the aangels which kept not their bfirst cestate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the djudgment of the great day.

7Even as aSodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to bfornication, and going after cstrange flesh, are set forth for an dexample, suffering the evengeance of eternal fire.

8Likewise also these afilthy dreamers bdefile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.


I think you need to trade in that training wheel bible for the real thing sonny. You are missing out on a lot.

Re: A message from JESUS!

What is the point of using that original image there?!

It's just a bunch of phrases expressing some hippy's opinion twisting general interpretations (which is wrong and Biblically unsound as we all know).

It's NOT Scripture.
It WASN't written by GOD.
It's been written by some 'dude'.
It's not REAL. It's not DIVINELY inspired.

It's just made UP!

Why follow something humanly created on photoshop by a couple of guys instead of believing the real thing (KJV1611)?

Doesn't make sense. Come on, let's talk grown up thinking here please.

Old Testament, and doesn't say pray in public. Why are you taking the words of a man over the words of Jesus?

James 1:5

5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

Says nothing of praying in public.

James 5:16

16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Doesn't say pray in public. And if it did - would that mean the Bible contradicts itself? Or that Jesus was wrong?

He didn't want us to fight terrorists? Really? What about

Luke 22:36

36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one

This was right before they were going to enter Jerusalem and He knew it would get dangerous. It was for self-defense, not violent attacks. When one of the disciples actually tried to use the sword against a soldier, Jesus got angry:

Matthew 26:52 Jesus said, "Put your sword back where it belongs. All who use swords are destroyed by swords.

John 2:15

15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew the tables

He chased them away with the whip. He didn't tie them up and beat them to a bloody pulp. His point was to get them to leave, not injure them.

To the Homosexual thing. That is a lie. Jesus was pretty clear about it. I will stick with only NT since you want to cherrypick here and declare the OT to be false.

Jesus didn't say any of these things, human writers did. (Not to mention they are all terribly mistranslated, but that's another issue).

I think you need to trade in that training wheel bible for the real thing sonny. You are missing out on a lot.

The KJV is hardly the "Real" Bible. It is outdated and unscholarly, mistranslated out of ignorance of Ancient Greek at the time, and intentionally to better suit the orthodox doctrines of Anglican church. YOU are the one who is missing out.

Wow. Your ignorance knows no bounds. I am pretty sure when he says ceasing to pray is a sin, stopping at any time, public or private is a sin. And as far as James is concerned, he said we should pray ANY time we lack wisdom. I suggest you get started right away.

You mock the words of Christ and his disciples? Really? You dare say that any word in the Bible is not the word of God? I am pretty sure that type of heresy is grounds for some sort of discipline. If nothing else you are in danger of hellfire.

Amos 15:15
And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,

Jesus chose 12 men to teach His word. You say when they write, it is a lie? You are in BIG trouble little mister.

The KJV is the most accurately translated version of the Bible. Your watered down version completely changes the meaning of scripture.

You really need to rethink your words young man. Unless you want to say openly that you disbelieve the Bible, and then you disbelieve God. I would not tempt him if I were you.
