"Unsaved trash". Is that an expression that Jesus used? If so, does anyone have chapter and verse?

Thank you for asking a relevant question!

The answer can be found here:

Spoiler alert: Jesus called sinners all kinds of bad names. "Unsaved Trash" is a more of an euphemism for people whom Jesus called "vipers," "swine," and "dogs."

Sweetie, before talking about a speck in our eye please remove the log from yours - you've been doing nothing but spamming since you joined.

Verily, Sister, isn't it True™! This is the best that the atheist swarm has to offer!

However, I strongly suggest that we pray for him! Does he deserve that? Obviously not, but Jesus does deserve to be given a chance to show mercy on this person's soul (Jonah 4:2). Have you, dearest Sister, actually ever seen anyone who so stubbornly displays hubris while totally disregards even the most elementary rules of discussion: Answering the questions by his hosts on a Forum that he visits by the mercy of Jesus, President Trump and our Pastors? Let us pray so that he avoids the fate described in Isaiah!

Isaiah 5:21
Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!

Well, this atheist was no challenge! How do you defend secular science without some knowledge of the naturalistic scientific method, philosophy, and argumentation!? Please, Sister Basilissa, let us join in prayer!


Yours in Christ,

Shitty things to say about people. "Trash" carries the sense of worthlessness. Not worth attempting to "save", (whatever that means). Anyway, as they say, if you find yourself at the bottom of deep, dark, smelly hole, and you notice that you are holding a shovel, the first thing to do is to stop digging. But I say, keep digging, folks. You are documenting your own hate and prejudice. That suits me.

I don't understand what you are trying to say.

Do you hate Jesus, simply because He used strong words against heathens?

From the link quoted above:

"DOGS" Matt. 7:6 Jesus said, "Give not that which is holy unto the dogs" (see also 2 Peter 2:20-22, Rev. 22:15)

"SWINE" Matt. 7:6 "...neither cast your pearls before swine"

"VIPERS" Matt. 3:7 "O generation of vipers..." (see also Matt. 12:34, 23:33 and Luke 3:7)

"CHILDREN OF THE DEVIL" John 8:44 "You are of your father the devil..." (see also Acts 13:10)

"PERVERSE" Mat. 17:17"...O faithless and perverse generation" (see also Luke 9:41, Acts 20:30, Phil. 2:15, 1Tim. 6:5)

REPROBATE" 2Cor 13:5-7 "...except ye be reprobates" (see also Rom 1:28, 2Tim. 3:8, Tit. 1:16)

"FOOLS" Mat. 23:17 "...Ye fools and blind" (see also Luke 12:20, 1Cor.15:36, Mat.23:19, Luke 11:40, 24:25, Eph. 5:15)

Would you rather be called a blind fool? A pervert? Or a reprobate? Or should I just call you a child of the devil?

Sister,

I think that this atheist failed to understand what it means that someone is not worthy of Salvation. Obviously, he does not know that absolutely no-one is worthy of Salvation, and it only by the Grace of Christ that we have been given the keys to Heaven! In fact, the atheist is not special even in this manner!

Romans 3:22-23
Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

We have a hard task ahead of us.


Yours in Christ,

Elmer

I'm beginning to see where the blind hate comes from - and people abhor the Daesh!

"But I say unto you, that whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment; and whosoever shall say to his brother, ‘Raca,’ shall be in danger of the council; but whosoever shall say, ‘Thou fool,’ shall be in danger of hell fire."

I'm quickly coming to the conclusion, because of the extreme inconsistencies, that these stories about your "Jesus" character were made up by numerous people over an extended period of time. Can anyone tell me why you believe this stuff?

Well, you see, there is a wrong kind of hatred, but there is also the Godly, perfect type of hatred:

Psalm 139:21-22
21 Do not I hate them, O Lord, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.

"But I say unto you, that whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment; and whosoever shall say to his brother, ‘Raca,’ shall be in danger of the council; but whosoever shall say, ‘Thou fool,’ shall be in danger of hell fire."

Because it's the Word of God. And there are no contradictions in the Word of God!

Sure! There are lots of reasons to believe. In fact, some time ago I wrote out a few myself. You can read them and join the conversation here: Reasons To Believe (1 Peter 3:15).

Re: Please allow me to introduce myself

The topic is endogenous retroviruses, and how they verify common descent. Ignore it as much as you like. It only serves to document your studied ignorance.

Interesting how the truly ignorant (that's you) always think that it is the normal people (that's us) who are ignorant.

I get that you are in a hard to break cognitive dissonance bubble, but I am going to give it a try anyway. After all, Jesus is on my side (1st John 1:7).

Imagine a huge group of people where everyone (that's us), except one person (that's you), believes the same truth. Even the most stupid retard ever would agree in this case the only logical conclusion can be that you are wrong and that we are right.

I am glad I could clear that up for you. Now I feel less guilty about forgetting my wedding anniversary for the 57th time.

Re: Please allow me to introduce myself

Not believing in things you cannot measure and quantify makes no sense.

Sure, wind blows, we can tell how fast it blows, but how much?
Love exists, but what is it? It makes us feel good, right? Nice and warm and squishy. But is one love better than another?
Dark is peaceful. You can say an absolute absence of light is the most dark and the most peaceful. But if that were true, why do children scream out in terror in the dark?

No friend, Some things you have to take on faith, no matter how little sense and logic there is. If you do not like it but other people do, it is probably because you are wrong and they are right.

Isaiah 29:14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.

Matthew 18:3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Luke 10:21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.

John 11:7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded
John 11:8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear unto this day.

John 12:39 Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,
John 12:40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

1st Corinthians 1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
1st Corinthians 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
1st Corinthians 1:19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
1st Corinthians 1:20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

1st Corinthians 1:23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
1st Corinthians 1:24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
1st Corinthians 1:25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
1st Corinthians 1:26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
1st Corinthians 1:27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

1st Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
1st Corinthians 2:15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

1st Corinthians 3:18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.
1st Corinthians 3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
1st Corinthians 3:20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.

Jude 1:16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.
Jude 1:17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Jude 1:18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who shou
