Re: Overwatch: Overdue For A Ban!

But it does though...

No, it doesn't, if you read what's actually written:

Galatians 3:28 "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus."

See the bolded bit? It's talking about Christians, not everyone.

...Mark 12:31...

Again, you're taking "neighbour" to mean everyone, where that is not how the Bible uses it. Learn more here: Bible Answers: Who are our neighbors? Who are our brothers and sisters? Who are we to love?

...Leviticus 19:33 - 34...

Buddy wouldn't be living with them if he wasn't of the same faith. See elsewhere in Old Testament for how God treats those who don't follow Him, plenty of examples.

...And those are just 3 that I found

Any other misunderstandings we can clear up for you?

A stranger is someone who you don't know as shown here https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=st...obile&ie=UTF-8


And when it says "Treat ones neighbour as you would treat one's self" it means treat people as you would want to be treated

Re: Overwatch: Overdue For A Ban!

ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

That means you are loved by Jesus whether you believe in him or not

One of the characters in Overwatch says a similar thing how we are all one in the same no matter your belief

Re: Overwatch: Overdue For A Ban!

That's not how the Bible uses that word. People were described by their origins, and calling someone a "stranger" would mean that they weren't born in the same place you were. If they didn't even know someone, do you think they'd let them stay in their camp?

...And when it says "Treat ones neighbour as you would treat one's self" it means treat people as you would want to be treated

You didn't read the thread I linked to, did you?

How do you explain Joshua's behaviour in my earlier post? When he encounters different belief systems, what did he do?

Why did he do it?

Re: Overwatch: Overdue For A Ban!

Seriously? He LOVES us soooo much He'll throw almost everyone into Hell???

John 3:18 "He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

Matthew 7:14 "Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."

You want to call yourself Christian? Do Christian.

Otherwise, don't go claiming that your omnibenevolent fantasy has anything to do with Christ or God of the Bible, thanks.

Re: Overwatch: Overdue For A Ban!

Well how about this one then

1 Corinthians 14:10


It says about different languages and how they all have meaning that could also be talking about different religions and how none is without meaning

So? Where does it say their significance/meaning is a positive attribution?

It could also be talking about different party drugs and how none should be excluded from your Shulgin blend. How would we decide which meaning to choose?

Re: Overwatch: Overdue For A Ban!

...It says about different languages and how they all have meaning that could also be talking about different religions and how none is without meaning

Then why it doesn't say that? There are a whole lot of words in the Bible (over 800,000) that say a whole bunch of different things but NONE of them offer any support for any other belief system. Quite the opposite, in fact:


Deuteronomy 13:12-18 "12If thou shalt hear say in one of thy cities, which the LORD thy God hath given thee to dwell there, saying, 13Certain men, the children of Belial, are gone out from among you, and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known; 14Then shalt thou inquire, and make search, and ask diligently; and, behold, if it be truth, and the thing certain, thatsuch abomination is wrought among you; 15Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword. 16And thou shalt gather all the spoil of it into the midst of the street thereof, and shalt burn with fire the city, and all the spoil thereof every whit, for the LORD thy God: and it shall be an heap for ever; it shall not be built again. 17And there shall cleave nought of the cursed thing to thine hand: that the LORD may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and shew thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and multiply thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers;18When thou shalt hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do that which is right in the eyes of the LORD thy God."

In other words, you are acknowledging that you have lost the argument because you were wrong all along.

Re: Overwatch: Overdue For A Ban!

verses 23-24 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,

are followed by

verses 25-26 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

The snare of the devil can be identified because it contradicts The Bible. I have included the context in all my quotes.

Re: Overwatch: Overdue For A Ban!

Way to show your level of commitment to the very Scripture you cite:

2 Timothy 2:24 "And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,"

So patient.

Re: Overwatch: Overdue For A Ban!

I'll say this again Overwatch doesn't have to promote reading but it still has comics and websites full of information (One of the characters even has a blog) for you to find and read into if you want to find out more about the game.

You would know that if you actually tried to research this game.

That's entertaining coming from someone who hasn't bothered to research the thread and/or the website upon which they are posting.
