Re: Hey friends

I'm sorry to hear that. This is a Christian forum. Racism isn't tolerated here.

Btw, I just read Larry Lees thread on Obama. You should probably familiarize yourself with it. Thanks, friend.

That thread isn't about racism. This is a Christian forum, how could it be?

I don't know if that post was suppose to make sense or not. Anyways, thanks for posting in my thread.

Re: Hey friends

I've read the whole thing. I just don't believe all scripture holds the same value. For example, historical context may help bring perspective to certain stories but do not actually discuss the doctrine.

How do you conclude that not all Scripture holds the same value? What do you make of the verses that I quoted, or of the following?

2 Tim. 3:16: All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

Are those verses to be read in "historical context," too?

Also, your argument sounds an awful lot like the arguments that the sodomites use to justify their deathstyle choice, and we'll have none of that here on God's favorite discussion board.

Re: Hey friends

Is this the part of Malachi you were speaking of Paul?

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:

And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
Malachi 4:5-6

What is you question about these verses?

All scripture is profitable, some more than others though.
It's OK to acknowledge. It's no slight against the Bible, to think so would be short sighted and ignorant.
Why don't you read Nehemiah 7: 8-69 and tell me if that scripture is as rich as the Beattitudes in Matthew? It's like currency, some of it is worth more spiritually than others. If you believe otherwise than I'll sell you my $5 bill for $20.00. They're both paper currency right? So they're both worth the same.

You sure are mouthy and bossy for someone who just got here boy. And if you're going ask questions about specific verses, how about you answer questions posed to you as well.

What is your "issue" with the last two verses in Malachi 4?

Re: Hey friends

Sure friend. Exactly what question didn't I address?

Btw, no reason to feel threatened. We're just discussing.

Re: Hey friends

I never said I was racist. Again, sorry you misunderstood me but I'm glad we could clear that up.

We ain't cleared nothin up, boy! You may say you is not racist but me being colored, I can say you is! Privilege come wif da blackness!

Re: Hey friends

You brought up Malachi, I asked you about it, and so far you've ignored me.

I didn't even see your post. Sorry good buddy.

Just curious what your interpretation is for those versus.

Re: Hey friends

At Landover, they do not Interperet the Bible (KJV 1611 ONLY!) they BELIEVE IT!

Are you a False Christian Paul? Do you Pick and Choose Bible Verses?

God is ALL OR NOTHING Paul, so is His WORD!

Let me remind you that your original point was that you "kinda skip certain books in the Old Testament because they're kinda hard." Now you admit that all Scripture is profitable. You therefore admit that you "kinda skip" something that you know to be profitable. Regarding the $5 and $20 bills, a better analogy to your argument would be that you just throw away every $5 bill that passes through your hands.

Re: Hey friends

Malachi 4 is short and to the point.

I'm not sure what you are asking.
