To: Emile Vidrine who wrote (3194 ) 4/6/2005 11:14:05 PM From: alan w Respond to of 5569 So tell me Emile, who is Paul speaking of in Romans 11:8? Does the phrase "out of context" ring a bell? satan is never mentioned in Romans 11:8. Let’s play an Emile switch the name game. This is a complete perversion of scripture and I apologize, but this is how ridiculous Emile is and this is his perverted gyration to justify hatred of a group of people. He does not do this out of a love of truth, but out of hatred of the jewish people. This is how Emile reads scripture: If the bible mentions God, substitute satan or “the god of this world” in His place. This is because in II Corinthians 4:4 satan is referred to as "the god of this world". However, this does not give license to substitute satan in place of God wherever Emile feels like it. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with the god of this world (satan), and the Word was the god of this world (satan) 2 The same was in the beginning with the god of this world (satan). 3 All things were made through him (the god of this world (satan) ; and without him (the god of this world (satan)) was not anything made that hath been made. 4 In him (the god of this world (satan)) was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in the darkness; and the darkness apprehended it not. 6 There came a man, sent from the god of this world (satan), whose name was John. 7 The same came for witness, that he might bear witness of the light, that all might believe through him. 8 He was not the light, but [came] that he might bear witness of the light. 9 There was the true light, [even the light] which lighteth every man, coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world knew him not. 11 He came unto his own, and they that were his own received him not. 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of the god of this world (satan), [even] to them that believe on his name: 13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of the god of this world (satan). 14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten from the the god of this world (satan)), full of grace and truth. Take your BS elsewhere Emile.
