You have lost me completely. I have explained that children should honor their parents and it is difficult to see how they can honor them while disobeying them.

Luke 14:23-26If any man come to me, and hate not his father and mother and wife and children and brethren and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
Well, you seem to have the same Bible as I, and the passage is both entertaining and instructive, yet I cannot see anything in Luke to puzzle over. Surely, you have been in a position where you hated something but did it anyway. Or perhaps you had to work for someone you detested but worked for them anyway, and treated them with respect, despite your feelings?

This seems completely consistent with Romans, Proverbs and Psalms:Psalm 94:1-2, Psalm 140:8-12
As the Bible is consistent and inerrant this is not surprising.

In your post you've pointed out an alternative to following God's instructions. Eternity in The Pits: Proverbs 25:21-22 Romans 12:19-20
No – this is not the alternative – it is the result of following God’s instructions.



After years of pestering God to smite his enemies, we never find out if the Psalmist;s enemies were smited. (He probably gave up and worshiped brazen images.) Little did he know that God had heard his prayers and that Jesus would come along and inspire Paul. Paul would then write Romans and say that, after a lot of consideration, your enemies will, henceforth, be smitten with a great and Godly smitance! When they die, they will go to Hell.
We are the heirs to the Psalmist – God has dealt with all our enemies.





“We must reassert that the essence of Christianity is the love of obedience to God’s Laws and that how that complete obedience is used or implemented does not concern us.”
