If Muslims believe that America is a Christian nation, they'll believe that this guy is a Christian and that this is how Christians behave. By the sounds of this forum, they'd be right, but that's not what our Lord taught us to do.
If we reject the Lord's commands to love our enemies, I've got no doubt that the Lord will use them in judgement against us.
I know that there are Roman Catholics who are truely saved and there is a great deal that I respect about the Romish Church and even its thelology,(even if I utterly reject much else about it.)
The ambiguity about whether I regard you as a Chrisitian was deliberate. I am in no position to judge. But let me put it this way. You could make it very hard for me to reject the reality of your salvation if your Christ like character out-shone the hot-headed Protestants on the site.
Pig races beside a mosque? What a great way of telling Muslims that "Christians" are uncouth, crass block-heads and confirming every reason for them to hate us.
Another spectacular own goal for the Chrisitans!
(err... anyone thought about loving their enemies and doing good to those who persecute us?)
Perhaps I owe you an appology. If you're not a "real" Christian because you're a Roman Catholic first and foremost, then I really shouldn't expect anything more from you.
I really should be having a go at certain other "real" Christians on this site who mock others (inc. RCs etc) in a way that dishonours Christ. If their faith is as real as they say it is, their tone should reflect it.
This includes me. So, if you look back over some of my previous posts and you don't like the tone of them, I'm sorry. I'm praying for more grace and really do want to preach the truth in love.
It was your sarcastic tone that was inappropriate. You may be surprised, but I don't have a aproblem with Roman Catholics and Orthodox Chrisitans calling themselves Christian. You're accountable to Christ, not me. Let me put it this way. Regardless of whether someone calls themselves Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox or Protestant, is it 'Chrisitan' or 'Christ like' to use that mocking tone?
This was happening a long time before the Romans were around. Tubalcain had a school making things like this out of bronze. See:
Gen 4:22 (KJV) Tubalcain, an instructer of every artificer in brass and iron: Genesis 4:22 (NKJV) Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every craftsman in bronze and iron.
Amazing. Assemble some brilliant scientists to design an extreemly sophisticated computer program to prove that evolution has no need of a designer. Only a scientist would be foolish enough not to see how self defeating this is.
I wonder what Darwin would have to say about this? Liberals seem to love evolution so much that they are willing to make themselves extinct. The sooner, the better!
Hey, what a great way of getting the Unionists to want union with Dublin rather than union with Westminster. All that the British Government has to do is repeatedly offend and betray the Loyalist community that they'll flee to Dublin for refuge. But wait a minute, that's what they've been doing for the last 30 years. Oh dear, poor old NI. Prepare to be dumped on from an exceedingly great hight.
We are to avoid foolish questions...and contentions...for they are unprofitable and vain.
That is what Mike rightly says if you scan down to 18/11 on the Romans shut down thread in answer to MBL.
For any who use sermonaudio for the sermons and blessed instruction this Lord's day click also on the Spurgeon reading for this morning and see if you are enlightened at all?
Sweet. It's so touching to see these scientists assert the infalible truth of their religion, then go on to condemn people of all other religions, and finally deny that thieir religion is a religion at all! Wow! I thought you had to be clever to be a scientist.
