My apology to one and all for spamming. I'm blitzing continuing education classes this week and am a bit limited on my ability to get into a flow of conversation.
This is aimed at those who name the name of Christ as important and integral to their life.
If your view of others in relation to your view of Christ and yourself cause you to view non-believers or those of another religion in such a way that you dehumanize them, see them in a lesser way than you view yourself, your view of God and yourself is in need of a catastrophic immediate evaluation.
You, being a gutless puke, push the gutless puke narrative. Your inferiority complex leads you to think you are lesser than believers, not the actions of us believers. The inner knowledge ot truth you posess convicts you of this, not us believers. We know there are none who sin as do us, other than those who commit the unpardonable sin and deny HIM.,
Your own concience, HIM, chases and convicts you to your sin, not us.
May GOD bless you as your needs may be, and may HE, your Creator who gave you life and a soul, have mercy on it, as may HE, have with us.
In JESUS'S Holy name we pray.,
Amen
And here's the perfect example of what the OP was talking about.
Bingo! If I'm ever in CO or you are ever in KY I'll by the beer.
I'm a Christian yet I'm dehumanized by someone else who claims faith in Christ being called a "Gutless Puke, push the gutless puke narrative".
The logic and flow of that post still leaves me a bit speechless.
Thank you my friend, I accept. I look forward to it.

You referred to “the essence of Christianity” here...

Again. You post a response of mine to another post yet I can't read the other post to contextualize my response.
Is “the essence of Christianity” different, in your estimation, depending upon the context in which it was referred to by you...? Or is “the essence of Christianity”, in your estimation, always the the same, regardless of the context in which it was referred to by you...? Basically, regardless of anything else, I’m asking you what, in your estimation, is “the essence of Christianity”...?
Belief in GOD has been used, in a wrong way, by far to many to attain their personal heaven on earth.
The end of democracy, and the defeat of the American Revolution will occur when government falls into the hands of lending institutions and moneyed incorporations.
A wackjob with a set of insane beliefs, a blend of ideology and religion, which he packaged and sold to a nation, causing untold suffering.
He sold it to a Christian nation (62.7% Protestant, 32.5% Catholics, 4.8% other, 0.8% Jewish in 1933) of willing buyers.
Some describe Jesus as a wackjob rabbi who saw the world ending very soon...so there's nothing odd about such believers getting taken in by another wackjob...and what better way to get the gullible in than by utilizing their existing fear, paranoia and superstition based beliefs.
Some here should read about how the German 6th celebrated Christmas when they were encircled at Stalingrad at the same time they were conducting an all out ideological war of death and destruction and indifference to the immense human suffering they caused.
The Waffen SS identified as Christian in over 50% of its members..Himmler relaxing/adjusting his policy to accommodate them when they protested his original demands.

Yep. There are many different christianities, and they are not all equal.
IIRC ,. wabi denigrates other people's gods by calling them false..which is a really cheap shot. (but commensurable for such a simpleton.)
He can no more prove such gods as false than he can prove his god to be real.

Norse settled Greenland as pagans where a Frost Giant would certainly be fitting....then they converted to Christianity and their settlements failed, so Jesus and faith wasn't able to help them. One can still see the crumbled remains of a church.

Im wondering why the believers are conversing in this thread with the dead.
Do you believers not believe what HE said? HE said to shake their dust of your feet, didn't HE? Like in ashes to ashes and dust to dust.
Didnt HE say to not give pearls to swine. Are they not your enemy who would turn on you and kill you?
They are those of the flesh you consort with who long ago took your forebearers and burned them at the stake along the way and to light the way from their high places to the Coliseum, where their forefathers fed yours to the lions.
Why attend their jolly party of folly? Why wallow with pigs in the mud?
They arent too blind to see the state of their country and govt after they got HIM kicked out of school and government, yet there are those of you who think you will open their eyes.
You believers think you can make satan give his winnings up?
They know the word and the Good News, yet they reject it.
Convers with your own kind on your own thread.
HE has left those you argue with behind. If HE is your Master and you are HIS flock, follow HIM.

Aaaand right there is a great reason to avoid organized religion and rely on your trusty blaster and Wookie co-pilot
Would you kindly explain how and why that statement is truth?
Faith is a belief held without the support of evidence. Hindus, Muslims, Jews, Christians, etc, etc, have faith in their own version of God or gods and theology, their own 'truth,' but logically they can't all have the truth, what they believe contradicts each other. What is being believed on faith is not necessary true and factual.
Your response is understandable and accurate to some degree - however, you have provided nothing that proves, or even demonstrates, truth in your original statement. It is neither simple, nor easy.

I want to know too. IZH27 - it was your comment so you should be able to say what you meant by it. You seem to be spending more effort avoiding answering the question than you could by simply answering it.

H27 is behaving no different to how Antlers avoids answering...ie. Antlers won't tell the CF if he actually read a book he recommended. Crazy I know.,
don't count on those of faith having substance.
