vickyO: Back the bolded claim up with a Bible reference.
@op God bless you for acknowledging the truth... Was Jesus, Son of Mary, who dwelt in Joseph's house, the Most High God?
John 1 1 - IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 14 - And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we saw his glory, the glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. |

JusConcept: What you called 'Blessed Sacrament' here is not mentioned in the Holy Bible and is a form of IDOLATRY.
The first and second commandments are directed against idolatry of every form ( Exodus 22:4-5) Step by step. Don't change topic. You said the Most High does not dwell in houses made by hands... And I ask: So Jesus, Son of Mary, who dwelt in Joseph's house, was not the Most High God?John 1 1 - IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 14 - And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we saw his glory, the glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. Answer that question. |

Isaiah 66:1-2, Acts 7:48-50, Acts 17:24. So Jesus, Son of Mary, who dwelt in Joseph's house, was not the Most High God? John 1 1 - IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 14 - And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we saw his glory, the glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.  |

candy: 1. 1 Cor. 6:9 and 10- Do you not know that the unrigheous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators , nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals...will inherit the kingdom of God.
2. How will a person claim to be a homosexual if he/she is not attracted to same sex? From the definition of homosexual, the attraction to same sex is the main thing, not the act of sleeping with someone of same sex. Forget 'homesexual act'.
3. Yes, every unrigheousness is a sin, not only homosexuality.
4. Prostitutes can't go to heaven unless they repent, likewise every other sinner. Once you repent, your sins are blotted out and a repentant prostitute is known by that name no more. 5. www.conservapedia.com/Homosexuality Homosexuality is the condition of "sexual desire or behavior directed toward a person or persons of one's own sex. Homosexual: a person who is attracted to persons of his/her own sex. The Bible doesn't condemn people who have attraction to their own sex, it condemns people who engage in the acts. There's a difference. Read those verses well again. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Is Having An Abortion A Sin After Being Molested? by italo: 8:48am On Oct 27, 2014 |
zboyd: I disagree.
If both Pastors consider themselves to be men of God, they DO have the authority AND are commanded to teach God's word to their flock, as laid out in the Bible - no deviations - no personal opinions accepted. "Thou shalt not kill" means just that - "Thou shalt not kill". __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
1 Timothy 3:1-7 The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money. He must manage his own household well, with all dignity keeping his children submissive, for if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for God's church?
Matthew 28:18-20 And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
But that's the crux of the matter, isn't it? Personal opinions and/or individual interpretations of Scriptures is why there are so many churches teaching so many different things that may or may not be entirely scriptural - yet all claim to be Bible-based churches - which causes all kinds of balls of confusion. Each church considers itself the 'True Church' - all others sorry seconds.
As for abortion...Jews and Christians have different views which definitely causes some hackles to be raised.
"An unborn fetus in Jewish law is not considered a person (Heb. nefesh, lit. “soul”) until it has been born. The fetus is regarded as a part of the mother’s body and not a separate being until it begins to egress from the womb during parturition (childbirth). In fact, until forty days after conception, the fertilized egg is considered as “mere fluid.” These facts form the basis for the Jewish legal view on abortion."
Read more here: http://www.myjewishlearning.com/beliefs/Issues/Bioethics/Abortion/Fetus_in_Jewish_Law.shtml Those men are not overseers of anyone. Bishops and priests are ordained by the One true Church of God, not self-ordained. Those men are just businessmen, deceiving people like you to make money. In Matthew 28, Jesus was talking to the Church, not just any scammer. I don't want to go into what any Jewish establishment might say...unless you are Jewish and subscribe to their law as true. What do you believe in...let me use that to show you that abortion is a grevious sin and crime. |

The persecution that followed no be moi moi. Oh! Deeper Life! To watch TV is also a sin abi? Were you not the one in the other thread that said As for your third question, according to Gal 5:21-22, one of the fruits of a Christian is GOODNESS. A Christian cannot not do good; its his nature to do good. We have the Spirit of Christ. Christ went about doing good; we must also do good. If the bold were true, you wouldn't be worried whether not giving your Father is good or bad. You're only worried because a Christian can do bad. Which proves that your doctrine is false. Now let me tell you something. Drinking or possessing alcohol is not a sin. You've been lied to by your pastors about many things. That's what you get when you follow all these people who lie that God told them to open Church. There is only one Church. |

I love St. JoseMaria Escriva, founder of Opus Dei.
I was his book, "The Way" that brought me to a deeper conversion, by teaching me how to live the faith in every aspect of daily life.
"You seek the company of friends who, with their conversation and affection, with their friendship, make the exile of this world more bearable for you. There is nothing wrong with that, although friends sometimes let you down.
But how is it you don't frequent daily with greater intensity the company, the conversation, of the great Friend, who never lets you down?"--The Way, 88. |

Ajibam: I am very surprised with the post of SalC.. I don't think she is necessarily wrong. Both sides commit very grave atrocities. And it is wrong to just takes sides with either one based on sentiments...which is what many people unfortunately do. Where I tend to differ with her is that I think, despite the atrocities of both, looking at the big picture factually and historically, Israel is still the nice guy in this conflict. Israel have the might to erase Gaza and West Bank yet they have not. They have never even spoken of it. If Palestine, and all the Arab states had the might that Israel had, there would be no Israel today. They constantly talk about it. They have tried it before. I hope Sal C can read (if she hasn't) a little of the history of this conflict: The Arab-Israeli war, 6-day war etc. It is easy to use children and cripples as a propaganda tool. During the last Gaza bombardment, many people ignorantly blamed Israel for bombing schools and UN compounds. It was later admitted that Hamas us schools, hospitals as command centers. There are pictures of a hamas rocket launchpad right next to children playing. These people are not people because they have chosen to live and die like animals so they should be treated like animals. The normal rules of conflict should not even apply to them. |

SalC: Am not sure my ish with them is with Netanyahu in particular but their force and no the children in question aren't carrying bomb or any weapon but simply because they dare to enter the al-aqsa mosque, or around that area since it has suddenly become a crime for them to be seen there. There are no children in this issue. When the militants want to tie a suicide vest on that 5 year old, they won't send you an sms to tell you first. Israel know what they have seen in the past. The teenage girls that bombed Kano, if the Nigerian military had arrested them just before they carried the bombs, you would have cried wolf, not knowing that dozens of lives had just been saved. Do you need me to show you pictures of 5 year old Jihadists with severed heads of adults? It is Hamas' official policy that Israel must be wiped of the face of the earth...and majority of Palestinians are Pro-Hamas...indeed all of Gaza. In such a case, nothing Israel does should be considered too much. |

VirginFinder: Guy,why are you so difficult?
Go back to my opening post and read the scripture I posted there slowly and carefully. You'll find it there. The passage you quoted never even mentioned "homosexual," not to talk of defining it. Romans 1: 19-28 19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath showed it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; So when you said "homosexuals are hellbound," who's definition of "homosexual," because it surely isn't the Bible's. |

VirginFinder: You are a stubborn goat! What do you expect from a world that is trying consciously to propagate the pro-homosexual gospel? Until the late 60s, american psychology textbooks classed homosexuality as a psychological/mental disorder. Today, it's no more. The Bible is my standard & I stick to its definition. A homosexual(gay&lesbian) is one who engages in homosexual acts.He/She will go to hell if they dont repent Show me the verse that defines "homosexual" to be only those who engage in homosexual acts...in the Bible, arrogant ignoramus. Empty vessel making the most noise. |

SalC: Yeah in my first post I clearly said Palestine isn't innocent too. Both sides seek the annihilation of the other but heck that won't happen in this 21st century,
For the records, I don't like Hamas, I seriously doubt their sincerity, their tactics sucks, but I don't agree with the idea of putting them on per with the likes of IS, if there is any thing the groups you mentioned have in common or appears to have in common, that would be their religious inclination but who really form and sponsor IsIL?
My annoyance with Israel today is they face civilians instead of militants, how will arresting 5 year old children solve their problem or enable a two state solution, or arresting crippled civilians, you didn't hear me blame Israel so during the war in Gaza because I believe they were provoked and had to do what they did save for few silly thing they did. Though am never in support of war. But the mighty Israel force is becoming barbaric and a big joke, and these actions can only aid Palestine get what they want while Israel gets more boycott if not sanctioned. I will not argue much. I will say one thing. If I were President, I will act like Netanyahu against Islamic extremism, not like Jonathan and all the other world leaders who are scared to confront and crack down on it. Another thing. If the Nigerian Govt and military behaved like Israel's, Boko Haram would have been wiped out from its inception. Another thing. Five year olds and cripples, even old women have been know to help Jihadists with information, carrying of bombs or even suicide bombers themselves. It happens even with BH. |
