Re: Hello Everybody

Thank you for this honest answer, because the last infraction I got was given due to one of those sins. He knows who I'm talking about, and what I'm talking about. So his actions in my opinion has imbrued the concept of True Christians being perfect.

Yet they are. It's everywhere in the Bible. Are you trying to say God's perfect Word is somehow self-contradictory? I should give you an infraction for that.
From my sermon on this subject.


Here God tells Abraham that perfection is achievable.

Genesis 17:1 I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.

I can hear some panties getting into a twist over these scriptures. Perhaps you think, that's Old Testament. The Bible says, "for all have sinned." That was prior to our Salvation. I would like to draw your attention to:

1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

How could we not be perfect if Jesus himself admonishes us to be perfect?

Matthew 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

In the Book of Luke, Jesus tells us that in becoming perfect, we are like God.

Luke 6:40 The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.

In many of the Epistles, the authors tell us that we are perfect and can be "unblameable in holiness," like our Master Who is in Heaven.

1 Thessalonians 3:13 To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.

Colossians 1:22 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:

Colossians 1:28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:

1 Peter 5:10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

Philippians 3:15Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.

And most importantly,

1 John 3:5-9 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

I don't know about you, but I feel pretty darn good knowing I am PERFECT without sin or blemish. I can't wait until we sit on the right hand of God himself and judge the world come rapture time, my perfect brothers and sisters.

No one was perfect except Jesus!

Wrong! I wanted to add a list of a few perfect people in the Bible besides Jesus for those you who don't believe there was anyone else who was ever perfect.

Luke 1:5-6 THERE was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

Genesis 17:1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.

God speaking to Ezekiel.

Ezekiel 28:15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.

David speaking to God.

Psalm 101:2 I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

And

2 Samuel 22:22-24 For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.
I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity.

Perhaps you don't think the New Testament word rendered as perfect actually means perfect.

Please see Romans 12:2.
1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.

Does that mean God's will is "mature?" Of course not. It's the same Greek word.

See Hebrews 9:11 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;

I'm the sinner, how is it that he is above me but I know the Bible better than he?

You don't. Reverend Rodimer knows his Bible quite well.

It all depends on if you consider yourself as being part of the Protestant churches.

Clearly, we don't except when counting how many people believe in Jesus and then we include everyone.

That is not what Paul Ryan says and think. Are you saying that Ryan is not of the church?

It's a sermon I have been thinking about for a long time. Can a person follow an atheist who says her philosophy is contradictory to Christianity and still call himself a Christian?

I'm thinking no.

Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

[Rev. M. Rodimer]

Re: Hello Everybody

No more or less than yours. Are you saying that you religion has no guilt or blood on it's hands?

Once again you come back to "guilt". What has that to do with the rationality of a belief?

I, for one, do not respect lies. Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, homeopathy, etc. are all lies which lead to damnation and death. I do not respect any of them.

You do not have to believe in any religion to be a moral person.

Yet you are not a moral person because you have no religion.

How do you explain Paul Ryan's admiration towards Ayn Rand who an atheist if she didn't have morals?

He admires her economic philosophy and her writing abilities. That doesn't mean he considers her a role model.

I can admire Arnold Schwarzennegger's physique without thinking he's a role model for a good marriage, can't I?

Re: Hello Everybody

Well, aren't you becoming born again again? How does it feel? Clobbering sinners over the head with the Bible.. It's great isn't it? Don't you miss it?

No, I just take the time to make sure I don't let a "gotcha" moment get the best of me like Bob did. This is a common mistake people make,they gab the first thing they see and run with it. Don't forget,you all are my betters. Shouldn't this come through in you posts, as well your knowledge of the Bible.

Re: Hello Everybody

Why is this idiot asking us if a man is wrong for disciplining his property? What's it to us how a man gets his help meet to perform properly? Does he expect us to be ashamed of our Lord?

Dressing up what I said does not change the fact that CDD does not say to close your wife's eye, or to break her jaw. If it does,show me where. And you seem to be getting frustrated,you've resorted to insults.

I don'y believe in God,haven't you got that by now? I don't believe in how you label and package yourselves, it is your right. This somewhat resembles a menagerie,and I know why you can't really take this show on the road. But you all did a good job mocking the very religion you profess to love. Funny,you call yourselves perfect, but this fictional church was started out of vengeance, which is a sin. Not,so perfect.

I think this says what I think of you giving me an infraction,I've grown tired of that little childish game.

I, for one, have not mocked anything. I am waiting to hear why you respect irrational ideas and lies, and why it is you seem to think this is morally OK.

I do retain the right to mock your response, if it is as ill-considered as most of your direct responses or as irrelevant to the question as your other responses.

Listen my sadly hell bound friend, you may continue ignoring the mountains of concrete evidence that God exists and that Jesus was His natural born yet immortal Son. But I will not sit idly by as you slander my church! We here at Landover have never and will never mock our sweet, merciful yet unbending and vengeful Lord and Master.

Call us whatever you want, because as the Bible says, we are blessed by your hateful persecution.

Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Matthew 5:10-11

Re: Hello Everybody

How often did your father lay good Christian beatings on you? Not often enough I'd guess.


You will keep a respectful tongue in your head whenever addressing your betters, which includes all True Christians™. Failure to do so, or any attempt at inciting debate or mockery of God's Divine Plan, can and will result in the suspension of your posting privileges.

Your rights on this forum are listed HERE. If you feel that any of these rights have been violated, please don't hesitate to contact a Pastor at once.

No more vain than you all are. Have you listened to yourselves lately? I'm vain? I take that as a compliment coming from one such as you. Were you vain in posting you bio? Or were you in a authentic writing mood?

You said that you were my "betters', but many of you don't act like it. The minute you resort to name calling and insults, is the moment you have just lost the intellectual contest. I can understand why you don't debate. You don't have a leg to stand on because you rely of outdated,contradictory, real data. All I have to do is use basic math to invalidate your story of Noah.

One thing that I can say about the Internet is that it has been good for providing a medium where different groups of people can gather among like minded folks to meet in a real church.

If you are having a hard time wrapping your brain around the idea of seas parting, two of every animal on a boat, flaming shrubs, donkeys and snakes that talk, city walls falling from trumpet blasts, eating dung bread, virgin births, the dead rising from the grave and walking, Jesus riding a horse with a sword that protrudes from His mouth and etc., I don't believe you and I have much to talk about.

And quit talking about sin like it's something you believe in, atheist. You don't, remember?

You preach the trinity, but the trinity was added to the Bible by man much later. Last post you agreed that I answered this question of yours, and here to seemed to still be perplexed. Why?

What a man does to his property is his business. You are being an idiot if you are determined to go to Hell like this. Why do you know better than God about how a woman should submit to her husband?

You're not going to troll any shame about our Lord's will out of us with your little jibes, friend.
