[READ THE TRUTH BELOW]


1. THAT YOU'RE A NO-GOOD, WORTHLESS SINNER

You may be a sinner, but you're not worthless.
You're so valuable that God sent His Son to die in your place, and pay the penalty for all your sins. God thinks you are worth the death and Blood of Jesus.

If you want to be cleansed of all sins [no matter how heinous they may be] and start a new life with a clean slate, all you have to do is receive that cleansing and forgiveness Jesus Christ purchased for you. It's already bought and paid for! There's nothing you can do to earn it. It's a free gift!

If you want to receive Jesus now, say this to Him, and mean it with all your heart:

Jesus, come into my heart and save me.
I receive you now as Savior and Lord.
I give you my heart. I give you my life.
Thank you, Lord. Amen.

If you've received Jesus as Lord and Savior and accepted his free gift of forgiveness, the Bible assures us that "If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness" [1st John 1:9].

That "As far as the East is from the West" He has removed your sins [Psalms 103:12].

That "The Blood of Jesus continually cleanses us of all sin" [1st John 1:7].

If you're already a Christian, then you're no longer a sinner. You may sin from time to time [all of us do], but God sees you in Christ: clean, perfect. He calls you a saint [1st Corinthians 1:2,3].

You are worth so much to God that, not only did He give His Son to die for you, He also adopted you as His own child [John 1:12,13; Romans 8:15,16; Galatians 4:4-7].

After you receive Jesus, don't let anyone lay a guilt trip on you. He's forever declared you righteous and holy. Praise His Name!

Stand firm on that righteousness He credited to you [2nd Corinthians 5:21, 2nd Peter 1:4].

It's the greatest deal in all the world! Receive it, enjoy it, treasure it!


2. THAT YOU HAVE TO "GO TO CHURCH" IN ORDER TO "MEET GOD".

You don't have to go anywhere to meet God. God is everywhere.

Wherever you are, you can cry out to God, talk to God.

You don't need to go to a church, or Christian gathering to "meet God". [you can go, if you want to].

If you have invited Jesus to enter your heart, He lives in you! He is in you! [1st Corinthians 3:16, 6:19,20; 2nd Corinthians 6:16].

In that case, all you need to do to meet God is go inside yourself, into your spirit, where He lives.

You also meet God by meditating His Word, the Bible. The Bible is God speaking to you. It's God's Word to you. His instructions for you.

This is something you should do for your own spiritual development, to know what God has promised you, and what He expects from you. If you're a new Christian, you should start by reading the New Testament.

When you spend time in God's Word you're
spending time with Jesus, who is the Word... manifested in flesh [John 1:1, 14].


3. THAT YOUR SPIRIT AND SOUL ARE ONE AND THE SAME

Your spirit and soul are two different things. The Bible says they are, and calls them by different names. Also, they have different functions [Genesis 2:7, 1st Thessalonians 5:23, Hebrews 4:12].

The soul comprises the mental and emotional
areas of your being. It's where you exercise
your free will. Where choices are made.

The spirit is the part of you that communicates with God. It's where God lives, if you receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior. If you have been born-again, you need to communicate with God in there, on a regular basis. You also need to read and meditate God's Word from there.

Your spirit should govern your entire being.
It should always be in control of your soul and your body.

4. THAT YOU SHOULD DISTRUST, AND SEPARATE FROM, CHRISTIANS OF OTHER DENOMINATIONS


A Christian, simply put, is someone in whom God's Holy Spirit lives. All who have made Jesus Lord of their lives, have God's Holy Spirit living in them, regardless of what church they attend, what style of worship they engage in, or what "Christian label" they use.


In fact, they are your spiritual brothers and
sisters. You should love them, pray for them, seek fellowship with them, and specially unity of spirit with other believers.


As long as you agree on THE FUNDAMENTALS OF the Christian faith, you don't have to agree with them on everything pertaining Christianity.


Regardless of whether you agree or not, you must love them! [John 17:9,10,20-23; Ephesians 4:3-6,13, 1st John 3:11,14].


5. THAT YOU NEED TO TITHE

Jewish people were the only ones ever required, under the Old Testament law, to bring [not pay] tithes to the STOREHOUSE (GRANARY) of the tabernacle or temple (Nehemiah 13:5; Malachi 3:10). That MAN-INVENTED building you erroneously call "church" DID NOT EVEN EXIST when the Book of Malachi was written, some 400 years BEFORE Christ.

That MAN-INVENTED building you erroneously call "church" HAS NEVER BEEN, AND NEVER WILL BE "God's granary" or God's "STOREHOUSE" TO STORE GRAIN FOR TEMPLE OFFERINGS.

That MAN-INVENTED building you erroneously call "church" DID NOT EVEN EXIST DURING THE FIRST 400 YEARS OF THE CHURCH AGE. Believers IN THE EARLY CHURCH met in each other's HOMES (Romans 16:5; 1 Corinthians 16:19; Colossians 4:15; Philemon 1:2; Acts 8:3).

And God, the same God who Incarnated as Jesus and went to the cross to save us, DOES NOT PUT A CURSE ON HIS OWN CHILDREN, FOR ANY REASON, let alone for money.

Only Levite priests are authorized by the Bible to receive tithes [Numbers 18:26-28; 2nd Chronicles 31:5-10; Nehemiah 10:38; Hebrews 7:5].

Pastors, evangelists, preachers, religious and "church" organizations ARE NOT authorized.

The tithe was never, ever money. It consisted ONLY of cattle, grain and produce [Leviticus 27:30-32, Deuteronomy 12:17; 14:23].

But Abraham tithed BEFORE the law...

Abraham tithed ONLY ONCE -- in his ENTIRE LIFE, and NEVER AGAIN -- and not from his vast wealth but from SODOM AND GOMORRAH'S WEALTH which he'd recovered for them in battle (Genesis 14: 14-24).

He did so VOLUNTARILY, not under any THREATS of a "curse". He NEVER AGAIN TITHED IN HIS ENTIRE LIFE AND HE WAS VERY RICH (Genesis 13:2,6).

And yet God promised TO BLESS HIM, NOT CURSE HIM (Genesis 12:3).

Since you're [probably] not Jewish, since there's no temple in Jerusalem, since we no longer live under the law, but under grace, and since Christian ministers aren't Levite priests, you shouldn't tithe to them or anyone else.

Furthermore, since tithing was given under the law, if you try to "tithe", you reject God's grace, you fall from grace, and are obligated to keep the entire Old Testament law [all 613 commandments] in order to have right standing with God [Galatians 5:3,4].

It's LIVING UNDER THE LAW (which includes "tithing" that will put a curse on you (Galatians 3:10). There are NO CURSES UNDER God's Grace (Galatians 3:13-14; Ephesians 1:3).

There ISN'T ONE Scripture, from Genesis to Revelation, that commands ANYONE -- Jew, Gentile or Christian -- to PAY 10% of one's SALARY TO A LOCAL BAND OF GREEDY RELIGIOUS THIEVES.
6. THAT YOU HAVE TO "GIVE" IN ORDER TO "GET"
Christian audiences are constantly bombarded with this UNGODLY LIE, which lacks any biblical basis.

Nowhere in the entire Bible does it say that
giving money to a minister [apostle, prophet, pastor, evangelist, teacher, or whatever else they call themselves] is the equivalent of "giving to God".

GOD HAS NEVER, REPEAT, NEVER AUTHORIZED ANYONE TO RECEIVE MONEY ON HIS BEHALF.
That's why you won't find a "Donations" link on this website.

God did not authorize televangelists, or anyone else, to receive money [or anything else] on God's behalf. Furthermore, [here's a shocker!] God doesn't want or need your money!

God gave you everything. All of it, therefore, belongs to Him. It's already His! YOU GOT IT FROM HIM TO BEGIN WITH! Therefore, you can't give Him anything material, even if you wanted to.

The only thing you can give God is your heart, and the praise and worship that flows from it.

The only thing God wants from you is your heart.

You can give to certain ministers or ministries in order to spread the gospel, and to help the needy. When you do, keep in mind you're giving to them, NOT TO GOD. You do this out of love for God, for lost souls, and for people in need, not out of fear that if you don't give, you won't be blessed.

Perfect love, the Bible says, casts out fear [1st John 4:18]. Fear doesn't come from God, but from satan [2nd Timothy 1:7].

Greedy preachers would rather disobey God's Word and keep you in fear, rather than in perfect love, so they can bamboozle you into giving... and giving... and giving... not for the sake of lost souls, but to maintain their extravagant lifestyles at your expense.

You should always give from a grateful and cheerful heart... because you want to, not because someone manipulates you, or scares you into giving [2nd Corinthians 9:7].

You don't need to do anything to receive from God. God gives freely, by grace! God gives because it's His nature to give. He is love. The personification of love. God so loved.... He gave [John 3:16] without us giving anything to him first.

In the Bible this is called "grace", which means "undeserved goodness".

If God gave us the greatest, costliest gift of His Son by grace [freely], why would He "charge us" money, or anything else, in order to receive "lesser blessings"? [and anything that's not Jesus is a faaaaar "lesser" blessing].

He that withheld not his own Son, but gave Him up for us... How shall He not... also freely give us all things? [Romans 8:32]. 7. THAT CHRISTIANS CAN COME UNDER A CURSE

This teaching is sheer ignorance, and sheer blasphemy. Christians can't come under any sort of curse, be it for not tithing, or for anything else.

The Bible clearly teaches that "Jesus has redeemed us from the curse of the law", that the blessing [not the curse] of Abraham may come to the gentiles" [Galatians 3:13,14].

Would you exact A 10% TAX FROM YOUR OWN CHILDREN? Would you, being A SINNER, CURSE your own children if they FAILED TO PAY such draconian tax? Not unless you were a sorry excuse for a parent, a deranged lunatic, OR BOTH.

Yet God is regularly AND FALSELY ACCUSED of CURSING HIS OWN CHILDREN if they fail to give A LYING RELIGIOUS NITWIT 10% of their incomes.

Sadly, there are so-called "ministers of the gospel" who have more faith in UNHOLY, unscriptural curses, than in the Blood of Jesus and His perfect, complete work of redemption.

If you've made Jesus your Lord, don't let anyone [I don't care what they call themselves, how popular or famous they are] threaten you with an unscriptural "curse".

If you're a Christian, you are blessed with all manner of blessings... [Ephesians 1:3,4] and no one can curse what God has blessed [Numbers 23:19,20].

Likewise, so-called "Generational curses" don't affect Christians. "If any man be in Christ he/she is a new creation. All things are passed away behold all things are become new and all things are of God..."
[2nd Corinthians 5:17,18].

This includes "curses" and "hexes" by those who practice the occult. They have no effect whatsoever on a child of God. For "greater is He that is in you than he who is in the world" [1st John 4:4].

Christians are immune to all curses. Period.


8. THAT CHRISTIANS NEED TO ENGAGE IN "SPIRITUAL WARFARE"

What war do you want to fight? Jesus already fought for us and won! That's the Good News! It is finished! Satan's been defeated. You don't need to fight Satan, demons, or anyone else. All you need to do is STAND FIRM AGAINST THEM, CONFIDENT IN THE VICTORY JESUS ALREADY WON AT CALVARY [EPHESIANS 6:10-17]. IT'S CALLED "THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH"
[1 TIMOTHY 1:12; 2ND TIMOTHY 4:7].

DO YOU THINK YOU, OR ANY CHRISTIAN "SHOWMAN",CAN DEFEAT SATAN ANY BETTER THAN JESUS DID?

NO, THE DEVIL'S ALREADY LOST. ALL YOU DO IS STAND AGAINST HIM, HAVING FULL CONFIDENCE IN JESUS'S FINISHED WORK AT CALVARY [GENESIS 3:15, COLOSSIANS 2:13-15] AND IN GOD WHO LIVES WITHIN YOU. PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME!

WHEN YOU RESIST SATAN, WHEN YOU STAND FIRM IN SPIRIT AGAINST HIM, HE HAS TO CRAWL... HE HAS TO FLEE [JAMES 4:7]. THE DEVIL RUNS LIKE A SCARED LITTLE MOUSE WHEN YOU DO THIS. HE AND HIS EVIL SPIRITS ARE UNDER YOUR FEET [EPHESIANS 1:20-23]. STAND, THEREFORE.

THAT'S THE TRUTH, AND ANY CHRISTIAN WHO TEACHES OTHERWISE IS TEACHING A LIE AND SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF!

9. THAT SATURDAY IS THE "DAY OF WORSHIP"

This will shock many of you but the Bible DOES NOT designate ANY particular day as "the day of worship".

Man-invented religion HAS designated certain days, but God HASN'T.

Contrary to what many of you have been taught, the 4th Commandment DOES NOT designate Saturday as the day of worship.

The 4th Commandment was given to natural Israelites, NOT TO THE CHURCH. It says that natural Israelites are to STAY HOME on Saturday and REST. They were to ABSTAIN FROM ALL MANNER OF WORK. Nowhere does it say they must congregate on that day.

And I CHALLENGE ANY Seventh Day Adventist or Armstrongnist to PRODUCE ONE BIBLE VERSE that says Saturday is the designated day to congregate and worship. If you find ONE verse that says that, email me:
christco@christconnection.net

But doesn't Luke 4:16 say that Jesus went into the synagogue on the Sabbath, as was His custom?

Yes. There's A HUGE DIFFERENCE between A COMMANDMENT and a CUSTOM.

The CUSTOM to congregate on Saturday at the local synagogue was acquired by natural Israelites DURING THE BABYLONIAN CAPTIVITY, some 1,000 years AFTER the 4th Commandment was given. THAT'S HISTORIC FACT.

Jesus, as a Jew, was merely following THE CUSTOM of His day.

When the 4th Commandment was given THERE WERE NO SYNAGOGUES in which to congregate as they had not yet been INVENTED.

NOWHERE in Scripture is ANYONE - Jew or Gentile - COMMANDED to congregate on Saturday.

God should be worshipped EVERY SINGLE DAY, 24/7.

10. THAT SUNDAY IS THE "DAY OF WORSHIP"

While there's NO DOUBT that it was early Sunday morning that the women and the disciples discovered Jesus' empty tomb after His Resurrection (Matthew 28:1; Mark 16:2; Luke 24:1; John 20:1).

While there's NO DOUBT that Jesus appeared to the disciples as they were gathered in the Upper Room ON SUNDAY (John 20:19).

And while there's NO DOUBT that Christians gathered to hear the apostle Paul preach and partake of Holy Communion on a Sunday (Acts 20:7), NOWHERE in Scripture are we COMMANDED to congregate on Sunday.

That, like the myth of congregating on Saturday, was INVENTED by mortal men FULL OF RELIGION, not full of Jesus.

It's never wrong to congregate in Jesus' Name to worship Him IN SPIRIT and in Truth (NOT IN RELIGION or CARNAL denominational bias).

He should be worshipped Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday AND Saturday.

Bottom line:
If you like to congregate on Saturday, more power to you.
If you want to congregate on Sunday, wonderful. It's also perfectly fine to congregate ANY OTHER DAY OF THE WEEK.

This business that some group INVENTED BY mortal men or women are "the only ones" who observe the biblical Sabbath because they congregate on Saturday, is A BUNCH OF SELF-SERVING, UNBIBLICAL BALONEY.

BONUS SECTION - MORE LIES YOU'VE BEEN TOLD

11. THAT THE SABBATH IS A 24-HOUR DAY

According to Genesis chapter 1, when God re-created the earth He did it in 6, 24-hour days. Each of those days ended with the phrase "and the evening and the morning were the (first, second, third, fourth, fifth, or sixth) day" (Genesis 1:5, 8, 13, 19, 23, 31).

Then God rested on the 7th day, the Sabbath, and He blessed it and SANCTIFIED IT (set it apart) because on that day He CEASED from ALL His work (Genesis 2:2, 3).

Unlike the previous 6 days, however, the phrase "and the evening and the morning were the 7th day" is CONSPICUOUSLY MISSING.
Why? Because the Sabbath IS NOT a 24-hour day.

The Sabbath HAS NEVER BEEN a 24-hour day.

The Sabbath was NEVER even observed as a 24-hour day UNTIL some 2,500 YEARS LATER when God gave Moses the law on Mount Sinai.

That is UNDENIABLE BIBLICAL - and HISTORIC - FACT (Exodus 20:8-11).

Even then, Paul makes it crystal clear in Colossians 2:16, 17 that such 24-hour WEEKLY Sabbath given under the Fourth Commandment was but A MERE SHADOW of the TRUE Sabbath who is none other than our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (Hebrews 4:10).

The REAL Sabbath is Jesus Christ, God Himself, LIVING IN OUR HEARTS.

Those who HAVE Jesus inside, don't NEED TO observe any 24-hour period of FINITE time, when they have the REAL Sabbath, THE TRUE REST, the ETERNAL AND INFINITE GOD LIVING WITHIN...

Those who HAVE Jesus inside, don't NEED TO observe the weekly Sabbath, since THE REAL SABBATH IS ALREADY IN THEIR HEARTS.

Those who KNOW Jesus INTIMATELY DON'T WORK FOR their Salvation.

Rather, they REST in Him, CONFIDENTLY TRUSTING the outcome, in the realm of space-time, of the Salvation that God set in motion when we were born again from above:

"Come unto me ALL YOU that labor (work) and are heavy laden, and I (NOT some 24-hour day) WILL GIVE YOU REST" (Matthew 11:28).

When Jesus lives in our hearts, EVERY SINGLE DAY is Sabbath.

12. THAT JESUS WAS ALWAYS "NICE"

I recently published a message on Word 4 Today entited "If Jesus Called you A DOG". As you might imagine, we received considerable feedback, most of it positive.

But what struck me as comical were the comments (forwarded to us by one of our readers) made in one of the moronic "prophecy forums" that abound on the internet.

It said, among other things (verbatim):

"The entire article is "over the top". In fact it is error. And so is the majority of the site... THE SITE (meaning OURS) IS SO FULL OF ERROR... that THERE IS NO REDEEMING VALUE IN POINTING PEOPLE TO IT".

Ah, yes, I've seen some of the "error free" comments WHICH ARE DEEMED to have "REDEEMING VALUE" AND ARE ALLOWED on such self-righteous forum:

like the myth of Islamic world domination, the myth of the so-called Mahdi, President Obama or the Pope being the Antichrist, all kinds of loony conspiracy theories, divination based on the dream of some religious nerd, the Rapture or Salvation being CONTINGENT ON "proper religious behavior" (as opposed to Grace ALONE) thus rendering Jesus' Blood INSUFFICIENT, some mysterious non-existent comet colliding with the earth and triggering the Apocalypse - ALL DOWNRIGHT UNBIBLICAL since NONE OF IT is FOUND IN Scripture - and (my personal favorite) REPEATEDLY CONTRADICTING Jesus by trying to GUESS THE PRECISE DAY when the Rapture will occur based on the IDIOTIC and unbiblical calculations of one or more of its "sage" members (Matthew 24:36).

It's only natural that the forum's directors view me as "a threat" since my teaching COMPLETELY UNDERMINES theirs.

I take their criticism as A HUGE COMPLIMENT.

Then there were the comments made by the forum's "moderator":

"I disagree that Jesus was rude. He simply stated what current Jewish teaching was regarding Gentiles"... Really?

The moderator shows GROSS intellectual DISHONESTY, GROSS IGNORANCE, or both.

Even if it was "current Jewish teaching regarding Gentiles", IT WAS STILL RUDE, in fact, IT WAS AN INSULT.

Anyone EVEN REMOTELY familiar with Middle Eastern culture KNOWS that in Israel, as well as all over the Middle East, it was an INSULT to call someone "dog" in the first century A.D., as it still is TO THIS VERY DAY.

So, to claim that "it wasn't rude" based on it being "current Jewish
teaching" TOTALLY LACKS VALIDITY: That's like saying that it's NOT AN INSULT for Muslims to calls Jews "apes" or "pigs" today simply because it reflects "current Islamic teaching".

The "moderator" goes on to say: "Jesus was testing the woman, not being rude to her".

The "moderator" IS LYING: NOWHERE does Scripture say Jesus was "testing the woman".

And I flat-out DARE this LIAR to produce ONE VERSE of Scripture that says Jesus was "testing her".

He goes on to say: "Her response-the response He knew she would give-was provoked for the purpose of demonstrating her faith and showing that faith is the way to God".

This "moderator" CONTRADICTS HIMSELF: If Jesus KNEW what her response would be - as the idiot himself ADMITS -- THEN WHY WOULD HE NEED TO "TEST HER"?

The "moderator" further states: "To suggest that Jesus was rude and thus implicitly saying that the woman responded to His rudeness by essentially putting Him in His place with her answer is false. It totally misses the point of Scripture there".

NOWHERE did our message say - or even IMPLY -- that the woman in question was "responding to Jesus' rudeness", let alone "putting Him in His place".

That was ADDED (invented) by this LYING "MODERATING" HYPOCRITE who IS EXHIBIT "A" of the VERY KIND of prevailing religious hypocrisy -- which CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH -- that I was exposing.

What we did say is that she was RESOLUTE and would not allow anything, including Jesus' INSULT, to deter her from TRUSTING Him and receiving deliverance for her daughter.

And that the REAL Jesus is not the "always sweet", milquetoast character that religion portrays Him to be.

It's the "moderator" who TOTALLY "misses the point".

The hypocrite then proceeds to accuse me of "careless exegesis", of "eisegesis" (misinterpreting the text ON PURPOSE to suit my agenda), and of "defaming Jesus".

Talk about "the pot calling the kettle black"...

At least I didn't put words in Jesus' mouth WHICH HE NEVER SAID, as this charlatan did.

ALL this ministry does is GLORIFY JESUS. ANYONE who's familiar with this ministry and says that I "defame Jesus" IS A slowpoke and A FRAUD, pure and simple.

He then pontificates about "gentleness" and that "Jesus was God and God is love and love is "never rude".

Has this slowpoke even READ the Bible

God is NEVER rude? God is ALWAYS gentle? The same God who said "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth"? (Exodus 21:24).

The same God who commanded the eradication of entire cities, including women, children and animals? (Deuteronomy 20:16-18).

The same Jesus who said "oh FAITHLESS and PERVERSE generation", how long must I suffer you? (Luke 9:41).

The same Jesus (Love Personified) who made A WHIP, THREW THE MONEY CHANGERS FROM HIS TEMPLE, OVERTURNED THEIR TABLES, and called them "THIEVES"? (John 2:14-16).

Doesn't sound very "polite" or "gentle" to me...

Apparently, by this slowpoke's fabricated criteria, EVEN JESUS HIMSELF DOESN'T MEASURE UP!!!

The hypocrite falsely claims that "love is never rude", and that the Greek word aschemoneo, used in 1 Corinthians 13:5 is frequently rendered in modern translations as "rude".

He adds "As Findlay puts it: "Love imparts a delicacy of feeling beyond the rules of politeness." In other words, "Love", first of all, "is never rude."

A) The Greek aschemoneo DOES NOT mean "rudeness". It may be rendered "rude" in more liberal, modern translations, but the word itself MEANS "deformed" or "without proper form". It DOES NOT mean "rude".

B) Consequently, that's the moderator's OWN BIASED interpretation, and NOT what the Bible ACTUALLY SAYS.

C) If the Bible ACTUALLY SAID "Love is never rude", he would NOT NEED TO RELY ON Findlay -- a mere mortal -- and give Findlay's FALLIBLE OPINION as basis or "proof" of what constitutes "appropriate Christian behavior".

He would be able to QUOTE THE BIBLE and provide CHAPTER AND VERSE to back up his false claim.

Evidently, he CAN'T.

Don't you just love it when some hapless, self-deceived religionist tries to confine Jesus, putting Him in a box, THINKING he can DICTATE TO Jesus WHAT He can or CAN'T say, OR HOW HE CAN OR CANNOT ACT?

Don't you find it HILARIOUS that he's SO FULL OF HIMSELF (or just "full of it" that he thinks Jesus needs his puny mind's "approval", when Jesus Himself is THE STANDARD of righteousness?

What this cretin's circumscribed and corrupt mind DOESN'T GET is that Divine Love is BOTH, mild and benign, but ALSO A CONSUMING FIRE.

Divine Love and Divine Wrath ARE NOT mutually exclusive. Gentleness and abrasiveness ARE NOT mutually exclusive, as clearly demonstrated throughout the ENTIRE Bible, from Genesis to Revelation.

That's why Jesus is portrayed as both a meek Lamb and a ferocious Lion (John 1:29; Revelation 5:5).

The SAME Divine Love which can be the gentle and sweet Redeemer, lover of our soul, who gave His Life for us, can also DESTROY and CONSUME its enemies and send them into EVERLASTING TORMENT (John 3:16; Revelation 20:10-15).

THANK God Jesus and the apostles DID NOT abide by this fool's man-invented criteria; otherwise the Church would never have survived the first century A.D. and THERE WOULD BE NO CHRISTIANS TODAY.

Indeed, it's this man's brand of MAN-FABRICATED Kristianism that's responsible for spawning a generation of ineffective religious weaklings who never bring ANYONE to saving knowledge of Christ, have zero influence on society and whom THE WORLD DOESN'T EVEN RESPECT.

In fact, the VERY APOSTLE PAUL who penned those words about being "gentle" is ON RECORD as saying:

"Oh FOOLISH Galatians, who has bewitched you"...? (Galatians 3:1).

"Let him be ACCURSED" (Galatians 1:, and

"I wish those troublemakers WOULD CASTRATE THEMSELVES" (Galatians 5:12).

Doesn't sound very "gentle" to me...

That's BLUNT LANGUAGE ANY WAY YOU LOOK AT IT.

If Divine Love were ONLY "gentle", there would be NO NEED FOR THAT SAME APOSTLE PAUL TO WARN THAT He (Divine Love, God) is "a consuming fire" or that "it's a FEARFUL thing to fall into the hands of the Living God" (Hebrews 10:31; 12:29).

So, in order to accept what this religious hypocrite CLAIMS, we would have to believe that:

1) Paul was a lying hypocrite, who DIDN'T practice what he preached and often CONTRADICTED himself.

2) That the Bible (God) is A LIAR, who repeatedly CONTRADICTS HIMSELF (perish THE VERY THOUGHT).

3) That this idiot is right and BOTH 1 and 2 above are true.

Actually, it's THE VERY OPPOSITE: this arrogant idiot is wrong. He is the LYING, BIASED FOOL, brainwashed by MAN-INVENTED RELIGION, who KNOWS NOTHING about Jesus or the written Word of God.

He is THE LIAR - not God or the apostle Paul.

Since we've ALREADY PROVEN HIM A LIAR, who repeatedly ADDS TO the Word of God things that God NEVER SAID, anything else he says TOTALLY LACKS CREDIBILITY. THERE ARE MORE BUT I WILL LYK TO STOP HERE.HAPPY SUNDAY
