i believe in tranquility said:
umm..Jesus died to save us from our sins. THE ULTIMATE FORGIVNESS IS HIS SACRIFIC FOR us.
That's the popular abstract ssumption. You cannot prove he didn't. I could say Tupac Shakur died for our sins. You cannot prove he didn't. Why would he have to, if this god is
omnipotent, then why go through this little chirade of crucifixion? And if Jesus was god, he commited suicide.
That quote on the holy spirit is talking about those who reject it (non believers), cant be forgiven for not accepting the HOly spirit, according to Paul. BUT dont think that I agree with everything in the Bible. I belive that God judges
And you wanna talk about forgiveness? Well, think about it, how can a third party(god) forgive someone? That's a bit like saying if you were to strike me in the face, a stanger would come along and say, "I forgive you for doing that" That is asinine. You want
my forgiveness, not a 3rd party's.
Concerning anger: Matthew 5:21
Uhh, he is not changing the law one bit. The 6th commandment given by god states "you shall not murder", the carpenter takes it one step further and asserts anyone that's
angry with his brother will be subject to judgement. BTW, in that chapter, the carpenter also says anyone who says, "you fool" will go to hell, but he, Moses, Isiah, Jeremiah, and your sky pixie himself are guilty of this.:lol:
Concerning Adultery: Matthew 5:27
He just fullfills the laws set forth in Exodus 20:14, Deuteronomy 5:18, and Hebrews 13:4. God and Jesus make it clear that adultery is wrong.
Concerning Divorce: Matthew 5:31
In Deuteronomy 24:2, it states that a woman who leaves a man will be defiled in the eyes of the lord. What's so new here? Jesus also states this in Luke 16:18, and Mark 10:11.
Concerning Oaths: Matthew 5:33
Concerning Retaliation: Matthew 5:38
Love For Enemies: Matthew 5:43
Concerning Prayer: Matthew 6:5
it goes on and on...
Dude, if you read the heading on these verses, it says, "
The Fullfillment of the Law" Jesus didn't come to abolish them, but to
fulfill them.
For example: I think that hating gays is WRONG.
That's fine. Then if you think that, obviously you don't agree with this god fellow's morals. He deems it perfectly acceptable to put gays to death, and he is responsible for them.
