TO remind you where I had to leave off this morning:
Message 18336845
I see Johannes dealt with all the other pick and choose scriptures you chose...and again, I really love it when non believers quote scripture telling Christians how they need to be living..
I notice you have not shown me the proof yet on the eye of the needle yet. AS I said, it COULD be that, it has neither been proved nor disproved. But let's just assume He meant the real McCoy. Well, then surely a camel is NOT going through that needle eye is it? Nor would a man. So,,,,all is lost, right? The apostles were certainly "astonished" as the scriptures say. "Then Who can be saved, they ask of Jesus??? (rhetorical of course, because they were already thinking NO ONE could be saved...
Then Jesus dropped the other shoe.."With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
WITH GOD, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE.
as far as the rich dude...his was a problem of the heart....not money.
Claiming, in fact, to be the world's most righteous. (Republicans are especially righteous.)
and your proof of this is? any Christian is not righteous of him/herself. We are made righteous by grace through the Son, by faith.
look at how you and other Christians on this thread treat other posters: all the name calling, petty insults, and ill will.
I will give you that one, speaking only for myself. I have no defense for that, but let me say something. Let's assume you are married, you have a couple kids, a wife, a mom, dad, the whole family. Let's say I come on here, and spend a good deal of energy running down not you, but your family. Call you dad a bunch of names, tell him he is a worthless joke, tell your kids they are dead meat, ....well, you get my point. You would not be a happy camper. Christians are family. When you and other non believers, and anti-Christs, and atheists and so forth come here doing basically the same, I for one, get my temper up...NOT something Jesus would do you say? Maybe not in the manner I do, but He certainly tossed the moneychangers out of His FATHERS house...my explanation is not an excuse, but an explanation. I will try to do better, and I WILL do better the more one refrains from disparaging my family.
I wish you well in the next life (if there is one).
you may wish all you wish, but I have eternal life now, according to the promise of my Father. |
