Wrong.

Heres a little help for you, the woman that accepts spousal abuse........

1. So far as we know he did not physically hurt any person or animal.
2. He did not torture or kill anyone.
3. He did not offer any teaching about the event or encourage anyone to imitate this particular behavior. Given his general style and priorities I assume that if he wanted to emphasize it’s significance as a “ministry” or reform technique he would have made that clear.
4. He never asked anyone to do anything similar to this, either on a specific occasion or as a general principle.
5. This action was directed against financial exploiters of people trying to worship God, and of those worshipers’ vulnerability in that particular setting.
6. It was not directed against those who had to use the “services” of those exploiters.
7. He was not trying to physically enforce his program or views, or he would have repeated the activity frequently. He would have stayed around to forcibly ensure these legal crooks did not re-establish themselves.
8. It was very non-violent in the sense that no blood was spilt, no arrests made, no beating or torture practiced – not even once; such events were certainly not established as a pattern.
9. In spite of this very low level of “violence”, and partly because of the rarity of this kind of action, he was making a very powerful visualization of crucial moral priorities.
10. It was not Jesus’ standard procedure or on-going policy, but a very tiny proportion of his public activity over those three years.
11. Thus it was not at all the focus of his work or the substance of his plan for his disciples or for the transformation of the world.

Using this incident in Jesus’ life to justify the massive violence of our presence in Iraq (or any other misuse of force in our world) IGNORES what Jesus was really doing here.
He was physically expressing very appropriate outrage. He was not arresting, torturing, or killing anyone, neither the guilty parties nor innocent bystanders. He was expressing outrage at the misuse of religion in the service of greed, and at the abuse of the common people for the same purpose.
I have no doubt that God is outraged today with some American Christians for similar reasons.

Not welcome in your Church? You do not wish to share to Good news of Jesus with all that will listen?
Romans 1 5,6
Through him and for his name's sake, we received grace and apostleship to call people from among all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith. And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

So you will share with everyone??????? AS LONG AS THE MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS?

Please! Anyone is welcome in my Church anytime! I would love the chance to speak to the lost (there are plenty here)!

Freind,

Of course all are welcome here, we just do not keep fellowship with them as Jesus commands.

Read we with me friend.

Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds" (2 John 1:9-11). .

GLORY!
That's Jesus talking there DavidJ.

Oh gee wiz David, it is not like I mail my church all the time. I deposit my tithes electronically. All do I know it is on Avenue of the Saints in Freehold Iowa Dave. Even that is pretty instinctive since all I do is turn right into the Church drive way under the statue of Jesus.

K! I cant take it anymore! LOL! I know this is no Church! God doesn't exist! He is fictitious! What really cracks me up is that you people and your "I am so holly" attitude probably don't even attend a Real God fearing, Jesus loving Church! Even if there is a small percentage of you that do go to Church and serve the Lord, you can sure as heck bet that your Church family or even your neighbors dont know about your other "Church"....... Landover....LOL! Not a real Church, not real Christians! Not bound for the Kingdom!
Let me guess.... you are a bunch of Closet Christian atheist that believe in God but cant tell your other atheist friends or family that you believe in God, so you join an " online" "church" bashing women, races and the teachings of Jesus Christ in a sad attempt to stay out of the fiery pits of hell! I know you already know in the back of your shallow minds, but allow me to reiterate it..... IT WONT WORK! Go to a real Church, Repent, and accept Jesus Christ as your one and only savior! Then FOLLOW HIM!!!!

God Bless us all........... even the fake! May they too find the love of Christ!

Re: David J's Hatemongering Thread

Mr. DavidJ, did you have a solid breakfast, or have you been up all night? Because your postings are becoming more and more difficult to follow.

I would suggest a Prayer Break until you can collect and express your thoughts more clearly, and with a greater helping of Divine Grace.

Son, you can say what you like.
We sure are real. I'm real, The Bible I have in front of me is real.
Why don't you just take five, slow down a little and think about what you are saying?

Re: David J's Hatemongering Thread

Brother David, what you must understand is that there have been numerous threats upon our churches since their inception. You have yelled at us in large yellow letters and insulted the Pastors and Elders who have tried to help you. Now you want our addresses?

I really believe that if you can just control your temper and allow the tranquil love of Jesus to guide your pen, you may have more success.

Please also understand that you only came to our security team's attention, I believe, yesterday? No one will be giving you any addresses, to my knowledge, until your background check has been done, and verified.

Go with God.
