Another prophecy which came to pass concurrent with Romans 1:18-32:
Isa 24:1-23

Isaiah 60
"This whole chapter is all to the same purport, all in the same strain; it is a part of God’s covenant with his church, which is spoken of in the last verse of the foregoing chapter, and the blessings here promised are the fruits of the word and Spirit there promised. The long continuance of the church, even unto the utmost ages of time, was there promised, and here the large extent of the church, even unto the utmost regions of the earth; and both these tend to the honour of the Redeemer. It is here promised, I. That the church shall be enlightened and shone upon (v. 1, v. 2). II. That it shall be enlarged and great additions made to it, to join in the service of God (v. 3-8) .....

Romans 1:19-32
"In this last part of the chapter the apostle applies what he had said particularly to the Gentile world, in which we may observe,I. The means and helps they had to come to the knowledge of God ...." (M.Henry)

"More and more American protestant churches are flexing their muscles and giving their collared leaders the old heave-ho."

"Pastors are experiencing what everyone else is experiencing – job instability - and lots of it. In fact, in the good old USA, it’s getting hard to find a minister who hasn’t been fired at some point in his or her career. I know of what I speak, I was pushed out the door of my first church and I didn’t do anything wrong. Blame it on Donald Trump. Too many people know how to say: ‘You’re fired!’"

Dean Burgon wrote:

"And the Written Word in like manner, in the earliest age of all, was shamefully handled by mankind. Not only was it confused through human infirmity and misapprehension, but it became also the object of restless malice and unsparing assaults. Marcion, Valentinus, Basilides, Heracleon, Menander, Asclepiades, Theodotus, Hermophilus, Apollonides, and other heretics adapted the Gospels to their own ideas." [Dean Burgon, The Traditional Text, p. 10]

If these nine above-named heretics adapted the Gospels to their own ideas and they lived during the first few centuries of the church age, it is entirely possible that B and Aleph and their allies might have been samples of some of their depravations. B and Aleph both were from Egypt. According to Dr. Bruce Metzger,

"Every deviant Christian sect was represented in Egypt during the second century." [Bruce Metzger, Early Versions, p. 101, quoted in Dr. Jack Moorman, Early Manuscripts, p. 40]

"Mr Paisley continued: "They took the paper to Westminster and signed it at Westminster and they gave them the money they had promised, but I never gave them a penny, not a penny."

He also said: "They told me that if I didn't do it I would be put in prison. Says I: roll on the prison, I've been there before."

More properly understood, the 6th commandment of the decalogue reads:
"You shall not MURDER." [Ex 20:13 NASB]
This is a superior rendering of the Hebrew instead if the KJV which reads:
"Thou shalt not kill."
There's a HUGE difference between murder and kill.
And law-abiding citizens keep guns in lieu of keeping baseball bats, longbows, broadswords, and morning stars.

I don't keep a weapon of any kind in my house. And in America not everybody needed to defend themselves everyday in their life.

The question is really for the individual isn't it.

It's the law of the land. Romans 13 says we are subject to the higher powers. Those who oppose the right of the people to keep and bear arms are against the law of the land, and stand in opposition to the higher powers.

Why do you want to keep a gun?

To kill people with?

Abortions should be mandatory by law for all pregnant teenagers. Jesus would never have wanted young women to be punished with a baby.

I quoted two sections of Scripture on it, perhaps these verses were too tough for someone to receive???

So
Because we don’t observe this necessary formulae in the Gospels/Epistles then we must declare the writers deceiver and antichrist. IAW P/W’s law.

So
We must rewrite the Bible and remove all who do not adhere to this law.

If it is so completely essential to prove Christian authenticity then we must use it as criterion in judging ALL, including the disciples who wrote the Bible, where we find it lacking in other books.

Clearly iaw P/W the crucial element is “in the flesh� – Many other confessions are prescribed in the NT, however they simply don’t come up to his standard without these three word. They are to be rejected.

Pope W

If the most crucial words for you are “in the flesh�
Then here’s three
In the flesh.
In the flesh.
In the flesh.
