You misused the opportunity to make things right

malvisguy212:
did you read and understand the context ? Its about anger and reconciliation. The bible condemned bribery and stealing, the message is very simple. Let us quote from verse 24:

24leave your offering there before the altar
and go; first be reconciled to your brother, and
then come and present your offering. 25"Make
friends quickly with your opponent at law while
you are with him on the way, so that your
opponent may not hand you over to the judge,
and the judge to the officer, and you be thrown
into prison. 26"Truly I say to you, you will not
come out of there until you have paid up the
last cent.

Is their any mention of bribery here ? Make friend quickly with your opponent on your way to court, does it mean you should bribe him ? It is because your heart is CORRUPTED, that is why you think the other way round, well , keep it up, thank but no thank from were you learn this moral behavior.

Proverb 28:8
do not bring hastily to court, for what will you do in the end if your neighbor puts you to shame?

lordnicklaus:


You are truly a son of lucifer as your name implies. You just misquoted the bible. This is what it really says...


"A present is a precious stone in the eyes of its possessor; wherever he turns, he prospers"



May God have mercy on you for misquoting the bible.....

The first death is a temporary sleep, because it is followed the the resurrection. The second death is permeant and irreversible extinction, because there is no awakening. The second death is the death resulting from the final judgment which prevents evildoers from living in the new earth to come, a punishment that ultimately results in eternal, irreversible death.

Scholar8200:
The inevitable result of God's Grace is thus described:

For the [size=14pt]grace of God[/size] that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12 teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
titus 2:11,12





Then please call on ALL the Apostles to edit their Epistles because your statement contradicts them.

newnature:


Read Romans, because we did not gain our new identity in Christ by being good, but rather by believing on what God accomplished, he justifies the ungodly. God counts the faith of the one who agrees with him as to the reality of their own unworthiness, and the fact that they must be justified by God’s gift decree, God counts that person’s faith as being that person’s righteousness.

newnature:
Forgive me if I'm out of context with your thread. But death as we know it, would indeed be the end of our existence were it not for the fact of the resurrection. It is the resurrection that turns death into a temporary sleep, so to speak. The second death differs from the first death, not in nature, but in results.
