A question for Christians

Calling my 'truth statements' "insecure accusations" is in fact a hilarious moment.

I always do take care of myself. How about you?

And what exactly is sarcasm?

"sar·casm (särkzm)
n.
1. A cutting, often ironic remark intended to wound.
2. A form of wit that is marked by the use of sarcastic language and is intended to make its victim the butt of contempt or ridicule."

In short, sarcasm is a politically correct way of saying 'personal attack'.

 

Rage on, brother. The forums are laughing. You have become a self-parodying entertainment.

 

And as long as I am able to point out the lies told by people like you, it is well worth it.

 

Great.
We're both happy.
You mischaracterize people's intent and claim victory.
The rest of us get to laugh at you.
Win/win!

 

There is no wrongful or non applicable characterization that I have displayed. I have only displayed facts regarding you and the things that you have said. You got caught in a lie; you admitted to the lie; then you attempt to play off the lie as a mistake or an incident of you stumbling. LOL. So, in fact, the only win, was on my side, when you admitted to having been caught.

 

Sure. Ok.

(Heeheehee!!!!)

 

And yet another admission. (Heeheehee!!!!)

 

You are the gift that keeps on giving.

 

Well thank you. I do try harder to please almost everyone.

 

You certainly amuse a very high percentage.

Goodnight.

 

Like I said, I do try harder to please almost everybody.. Goodnight and thanks for the vote of confidence.

 

God is, was and will always be.

God loved the world so much that He sent a part of His Godself so that whoever becomes his follower will not cease to exist but live forever with Him.

Love God with all your heart, mind soul and strength and love your neighbor as yourself.

If you love God than you will follow his instructions

First and foremost, God is love.

 

I meant it as helpful feedback. Take it for what it was. Or ignore it. It makes no difference to me. I apologize for the blunt-ness, but...that's what you get from Felicity--love it or hate it.

 

As they say in some circles of psychology, at least they are paying attention to the fact that you are.

I take no offense to constructive criticism, it is shameful that others on this forum are not so willing to accept such criticism. Or maybe they are. Being that "I yam what I yam", would indicate that the analysis which took place leading to the conclusion that some 'reconstruction' was needed, might have been faulty, or perhaps was based on faulty data, or even personal bias. At any rate, thanks for those little 'constructive' notations.

 

Those things are true but they are not the gospel. If you have a Bible software like WordSearch, just type gospel of the kingdom and see how many times you see the words The Kingdom of God pops up. The gospel of the kingdom was what Jesus' message was pronominally about. He did not preached about Himself, He did not preach Calvary and He did not preach about going to Heaven......His message was all about the kingdom of God, and His invitation into that kingdom…..He even said it was preached to the poor. That was what all the parables that He told was about.


It is that same gospel that He commanded His disciples and us to preach.....which by the way most of us are not doing. Jesus said when the gospel is preached all around the world the end would come. If all Christians and Churches were doing that the end would have came a long time ago. But instead of telling the world about the kingdom of God, we are telling people about Jesus. We ignore His message, as if telling people about Jesus is the message.

 

Thanks everyone for participating......even those that I disagree with. I hope at least my OP has sparked some interest and will motivate all those who might not be studying the Bible as much as they should.

 

His Message was how to avoid Hell and get Salvation.

 

No - how to live like decent people here and now to create the Kingdom. Many alleged Christians should try it.

 

Where did you read that in the Bible? How many times Jesus did mention the world Hell? And what do you know about Salvation? What does the Bible say is man's purpose?

 

Jesus' message was the announcing of God's kingdom and God's invitation to man into that kingdom. That is why Jesus said to see first the kingdom of God..... It is plain as day in the Bible but a lot of Christians missed it because they are not paying attention to what Jesus say in the Bible.

 

What did Jesus say?

Matthew 15:24 = But He answered and said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

 

How many times did Jesus uttered those words?

 

11 or 12. whats your point?

 

Being sent to the lost House of Israel and or Jesus saying He was sent to them is not the gospel. Jesus was sent with a message to them, and that message was the gospel of the kingdom. The Bible said that Jesus preached the gospel of the kingdom and that is mentioned way more than 12 times. But very very few Christians know what the gospel of the kingdom is. They think is preaching Calvary or telling people about Jesus. That is false......Jesus never preached about any of those things.

 

It’s better to listen and do what Jesus says and be blessed rather than listen to and believe what you hear preached in Church that contradicts Jesus word. What I’m saying is, blow the dust off your Bible and start studying it.
