Is this what Christian love looks like? I'm disgusted and full of sadness.

[Blasphemous cartoon] I don't usually use names, but I'm calling Clete out.

Clete quote:

The most loving thing to do with a homo is to convict him of his crime and execute him publically and painfully.

No, I'm not kidding. That is not a joke and it isn't said for effect or to get a reaction. It's God's own truth.

Is this what the brick and mortar church has become?

You equate Jesus with a Sodomite? The punishment for Sodomites is death. When Sodomites aren't put to death, you get what we have now--America.

The wickedness of Sodom ([Ex 20:14] heterosexual [Lev. 20:10–12] or homosexual [Lev. 20:10,13]) was notorious (Gen. 13:13).

See:

Nicer than God
The Bible's Criminal Code  

Ezekiel 16:49-50 ... You forget your scripture sometimes don't you...Whenever you hear the word Sodomy, you think of it's modern use and equate it to one particular act based on usage of the day. Have you been hoarding those cloaks of righteousness from homosexuals?

They were haughty and did detestable things before Me (Eze 16:50a). What about detestable don't you get? Perhaps you hadn't noticed-- They aren't interested in the Lord's robe of righteousness (Jb 29:14).

You think their behavior is a-ok. God does not.

[...Laws come from God not man (1 Ti 1:8-10, Ac 5:29). ]  That's why I was sickened.  What part of Love [sic] your neighbor was that quote about?

Loving your neighbor is telling him the truth (Ac 20:20). You're ashamed of God's truth (Jn 14:6). He'll be ashamed of you (Lk 9:26, Heb 13:4).

[Loving your neighbor is telling him the truth (Ac 20:20)...] What part about a group of hostile people that were unloving and stingy with what they had, don't you get?

"Ps 139:22 perfect hatred. David has no other response to God’s enemies than that of hatred, i.e., he is not neutral towards them nor will he ever ally himself with them." MacArthur, J., Jr. (Ed.). (1997). The MacArthur Study Bible (electronic ed., p. 866). Nashville, TN: Word Pub.

Sodomy is a state of heart, not of flesh.

Sodomy is very much work of the flesh (Gal. 5:19–21).

Are you a Sodomite?

If Jesus doesn't judge... 

Who told you that? Rom. 1:18–32

“If you take part of the truth, and try to make that part of the truth, all of the truth, then that part of the truth becomes an untruth.” ~ Adrian Rogers

 ...After we stopped being sinners, Jesus Loved [sic] us and Died [sic] for us.

"God loves you. He'll live without you." ~ J. Vernon McGee  

Then why does God say love your enemies?

You thought loving you enemy was allowing him to violate God's law without punishment? Eccl 8:11

ok doser View Post
Oh great, another retard.  What else does He say? Romans 12:9

With friends like that who needs enemies? Ge 3:1

[Response to another member] Nice name calling.

You are a devil (Ro 1:32). Best you know it (2 Ti 3:13).

It's not easy to twist scripture when you post all of it, is it?

He's a fine servant of the Lord.  You twist it (2 Pe 3:16).

Notice that it calls for "sincere" love?  Is your love sincere?

He is sincerely loving. You are sincerely dangerous should anyone believe you (2 Pe 2:1).

Are you without sin and thus free to cast Mosaic stones?

No one but Jesus is without sin (Heb 4:15). What's you point?

How does your pair of aces beat my royal flush...?  Royal flush of sincere love that emulates the God that forgave the adulterous and said; go and sin no more. 

He found an ace that he can keep. What about sin no more don't you get? Grace is a license to repent. You thought it was a license to go on sinning? The church age is ending and you're still stuck on stupid.

"Don't get stuck on stupid." ~ General Honore

We, the church, mysteriously appeared. We will mysteriously disappear soon. You won't be joining us unless you repent of your wickedness (Heb 3:12).

Are you seriously insinuating my salvation fate?

I don't think you're saved? 1 Ti 4:1

I teach that there is no profit in sin.

You teach that it is unloving to judge rightly (Pr 31:9).  The saints of the Lord disagree with you (Phil 2:2).  When corrected, you respond like the devil you are (Jn 8:37).

I confess I am a sinner.

That's nice. Demons know the same basics that you know (Jas 2:19) and they're going to hell.

I claim the robe of Jesus.

If you had one of those, you'd be preaching righteousness (2 Pe 2:5).

I struggle to love in word and deed.

You struggle to undermine God's word (Heb 13:4). You'll answer for it (Mt 12:36).

How am I a devil?

How aren't you? Mt 5:18

[I don't think you're saved? 1 Ti 4:1] It's ok Serpant Dove, I pray that you are.

Superstitious prayer. I'm either saved or I'm not (1 Jn 3:14). 

[Deuteronomy 31:6 Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the LORD your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you...]

Claiming our passages again? 2 Ti 3:5

"Not all of scripture is written to you but all of scripture is written for you." ~ J. Vernon McGee

 [ Superstitious prayer. I'm either saved or I'm not (1 Jn 3:14).] Please Change the tag.

My words (Eph 4:14). They're not going anywhere.

I would never imply that you were not saved.

You would never judge rightly either (Lk 13:5, 1 Co 12:10, Mt 7:20).

Flee the path that betrays love.

Ro 12:9

I leave you in peace now.

Is 48:22

Why do you carry the Spirit of discouragement?

Eph 5:11

You keep messing up the tags on your quotes.

I'm not here to teach you English 101 (Re 12:10, Eph 4:14).

 I don't want to be falsely believed to be of a spirit of discouragement (Re 12:10, Eph 4:14).

You are of your father the devil (Jn 8:44).

Peace be with you SD.

Is 48:22

Joel 2:32  And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved... 

A universalist, too?

See:

What is Unitarian Universalism? What are the beliefs of Unitarian Universalism?

Is universalism / universal salvation biblical? If Jesus died for the sins of the entire world, does that mean that everyone in the world is saved?

 [Ge 3:24]

So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life [Gen. 3:24].

"This does not mean that God put up a roadblock. It means that the way of life was kept open for man to come to God. But now that way is not through the tree of life. Salvation must come through a sacrifice, and when man looked back, the blood of the sacrifice is what he saw." McGee, J. V. (1997). Thru the Bible commentary (electronic ed., Vol. 1, p. 28). Nashville: Thomas Nelson.

Matthew 24:27...God came in flesh for the love of His wayward creation.  

For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be [Matt. 24:26–27].

"He comes, there will not be any John the Baptist to announce Him. But when He comes, the whole world will know and it will be as public as lightning. Those of you that live in the Middle West know that a lightning storm is a public affair. When it comes, everybody knows about it, and sometimes it is a frightful experience. The Lord’s second coming to the earth will be like that. No one will need to announce it. When our Lord comes the second time to establish His Kingdom on earth, everyone will know He is coming. (Remember that His second coming to earth does not refer to the Rapture.)" McGee, J. V. (1991). Thru the Bible commentary: The Gospels (Matthew 14-28) (electronic ed., Vol. 35, p. 141). Nashville: Thomas Nelson.  

[You thought loving you enemy was allowing him to violate God's law without punishment? Eccl 8:11] How can we violate what was fulfilled?

Who's we? Jn 8:44, 8:21

Faith triumphs

Faith repents (Ac 8:22, 9:35, 15:3, 1 Sam. 7:3).

Those declared righteous are reconciled

Men are declared righteous after they repent not before (Ac 8:22, 9:35, 15:3, 1 Sam. 7:3).

Death through Adam and life through Christ

For those who have repented (Ac 8:22, 9:35, 15:3, 1 Sam. 7:3).

Jesus loves you (Jn 3:16). Jesus is willing to save you (2 Pe 3:9). Repent (Eze 18:30-32; Ac 17:30). Believe (Mk 9:23).  

 Old Man, Old Wine...

 Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved [Matt. 9:16–17].

"Our Lord is saying this: The old covenant, the old dispensation of law, was ending, and He had not come to project it or to continue under that dispensation. Actually, He had come to provide a new garment, and that new garment was the robe of righteousness which He gives to those who do nothing more than to trust Him.

The “bottles” were the wineskins of that day. They were fashioned of animal skin. You can see that when new wine would be put into a new wineskin, it would expand. But an old wineskin had reached the place of maximum expansion; when it was filled with new wine, it would naturally burst open and the wine would be lost.

Our Lord is saying this, “I haven’t come to sew patches on an old garment. I have come to present a new garment, something which is altogether new.” This was very radical. John summed it up in his Gospel when he said, “For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ” (John 1:17)." McGee, J. V. (1991). Thru the Bible commentary: The Gospels (Matthew 1-13) (electronic ed., Vol. 34, p. 132). Nashville: Thomas Nelson.

"9:17 new wine into old wineskins. Animal skins were used for fermentation of wine because of their elasticity. As the wine fermented, pressure built up, stretching the wineskin. A previously stretched skin lacked elasticity and would rupture, ruining both wine and wineskin. Jesus used this as an illustration to teach that the forms of old rituals, such as the ceremonial fastings practiced by the Pharisees and John’s disciples, were not fit for the new wine of the New Covenant era (cf. Col. 2:17). In both analogies (vv. 16, 17), the Lord was saying that what the Pharisees did in fasting or any other ritual had no part with the gospel." MacArthur, J., Jr. (Ed.). (1997).

...Slave Woman...

See:

Hagar and Slavery Vs. Sarah and Freedom by John Piper

...Moses...

Mal 4:4-6, Mt 24:14

It's the spirit of hostility and judgment.

Pr 31:9, Eph 5:11

If you believe it is a carnal message. I cannot help you.

You can't, antichrist (2 Pe 2:1, 1 Jn 4:4, Ac 5:31).

Ahahaha!  And the forked tongue sspeakthss again...

The message coming from you and your husband is evil (Heb 13:4).

Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire (Mt 7:19).

Go ahead & add me to your little hate club thread...
