Peacemakers Dress Funny

Forget about it. I did answer your questions. I gave David as a man who made war while achieving God's favor. Then I asked you what real peacemakers are. You still haven't answered, and now you want to change the subject. Very typical.

Who is the peacemaker ? David or Gandhi ? It's a real easy question.

 

This thread, started by you, is about peacemakers. Why will you not answer who is the better one ?

Because it would out you ? Are you saved, C.T.Boy ? I find nothing even remotely Christian in any of your posts.

Since this thread is about peacemakers, and since I answered your original question, I leave this thread as evidence that you are not willing, or are not capable of honest, rational debate.

I will pray that the Holy Spirit finds you.

 

What a weird thread!!

Judge not a man by his clothes, but by his actions. It seems a better course of action, but nevertheless the world does tend to form quick opinions by ones ability to cover the envelope of ourselves. This exterior does serve the purpose of stopping our organs and bodily fluids from falling out which can only be a good thing:tongue3:

My dad was regular army for much of his life and he looked pretty dandy in his uniform and positively gorgeous in mess kit. As children we were bitterly disapointed to be told he only shot lions and tigers whilst in Malaya (a country with no lions and any tigers would have to be rare). He was a surveyor and cartographer.

My deceased brother was in Croatia during that war and I have photos of people welcoming the UN on their arrival to help keep the peace for townsfolk wanting above all things...a life where they could go about there business without fear. My brother was not military but civilian.

I might be called weird as I am a conservative Catholic and do not own trousers. Neither do I have any tattooes (almost de rigeur here), piercings or own a flash car. It ain't important, the state of my soul and hence my relationship with God is. Being Christian is regarded as weird....so be it!

 

Melanie, I admire your keen observation. :type:

 

Offensive?!?

This answer shows the extent of the Americanization of the gospel. It's horrific.

Also, you think you're a better theologian than Brueggeman?

 

I think David was a better peacemaker than Gandhi. What do you think ?

 

Answered in another thread.
:laugh:

Was Solomon a better peacemaker than Gandhi ? Can you provide scripture that backs up your assertion that Solomon kept Israel at peace better than David did ?

And remember, you are talking to the guy who has proved to you over & over, that a democrat president starved a half million Iraqis to death. I am against the war in Iraq, a fact that you seem to ignore. But your words "They will be peaceful when we kill them." are not my words, I have never said them, and I ask you to stop repeating that LIE.

Now I guess you don't believe in what the Bible has to say about hell. or you would be telling me Gandhi was a false prophet. He certainly was no peacemaker. How could someone who denies the Prince of Peace be called a "peacemaker" ? Especially by someone who calls themself a "Christian" ?

 

Nope. You accused me of doublespeak, using those words as an example. Either show me my doublespeak, (which you cannot), retract the words, or this conversation is over. You do not get to define my position in this debate by putting words in my mouth.

 

You want me to apologize for calling you a liar, before you retract a lie. Do you see how silly that is ?

Forget it.

You know nothing about the biblical term "peace maker", and I leave you to your ignorance.

 

So it is truly your contention that Gandhi is a better role model for Christians than David is ?

And I really don't think you know what doublespeak is, either. You haven't showed me anything like it. I explained how David was a peacemaker, yet you have not addressed it.

 

See, your worldly view of a peacemaker, would have been someone who let Goliath live, maybe tried to talk to him, certainly "love" could tame this reprobate murderer.

Is that accurate ?

 

If you read my posts, you would see where I said he was. I also told you how he created peace. Did you read either one of them ?

Is trying to misrepresent me the best you can do ?
