The Bible says a lot of things

The name is "GOD SAVES". If someone doesn't believe God Saves, If someone does not believe God is GOOD, they really are condemned already. They already are punishing themselves.

1 John 4 God is love.

"LOVE SAVES"

 

Are you presenting this as an excuse for them? Mohammad didn't like Christians declaring Jesus as the Son of God, so he writes his own book, makes sure it goes against what God has already revealed through His chosen Apostles, calls it holy, millions follow his lies and you somehow think God is just A-OK with their faith.

 

Now why would a Christian desire to spin or twist God's very Word? Do you really believe John 3:18 is speaking about a person who does not believe God saves?

Now of course it says nothing of the sort, it's really not even a twist but a flat out rewrite. I'll post it again, I pray the Father forgives your misrepresentation of his word and you will hear from the Father as you read it....

"He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

 

You seriously do not understand Jesus is speaking of people? If you do not know who His enemies are then how do you know you are not one of them?

 

I'm pretty certain if you were born out there in the middle east you'd be swearing up and down the only God is ALLAH and Mohammad is his prophet.

It is by God's grace you are not in their shoes but you hold it over their head as if you merited your place.

With God nothing is impossible. You can teach every single Muslim if you are willing.

If God wanted to he could have you go back in time and properly explain the gospel to Mo.

You got bigger fish to fry in your automatic expectations of God to act without mercy.

To give you an example. I don't think highly of your theology. But come judgement day. I'm going to be in your defense table not your accusers table.

Your not going to hear, well I tried to explain it to him, but he wanted nothing to do with it. His teachings were all wrong there was nothing to get through to him.

What you are going to hear is, Lord its all my fault he got it all wrong, I didn't do a good job of encouraging what was sufficient and good in his faith, I didn't set a proper example, he is innocent.


Every Muslim soul is my responsibility. My eternal happiness hangs on the salvation of others. There is no excuse for us not being able to teach them to love God and neighbor.

There is only one God, Jesus Christ. The idea someone didn't figure God out completely I don't think anyone on earth would pass with an "A-OK".

The team I'm on the jersey I wear absolutely does not matter. Its not US vs THEM for me. Its US for US.

Who ever you look at as the worst. That's my child, that is who I'm putting my all to save.

If there is one seat for heaven between me and you, I'm going to buckle you in that seat.

I will never love God more then the person I hate the most. I will never care for God more then then those I care for least.

The matters of kindness and love are indistinguishable as matters of God for me.

If the whole universe was in heaven but you were in hell. I'm not going to go to heaven. I will go knee deep in hell and drag you out if I have to.

If all existence wanted to beat you up, And if I was just the tiniest speck. They will all have to get through me. I will leave the 99, i will always side for the least and very bottom of us.

 

Love your enemies. If they are evil, I guarantee it will slay them. Kill them with kindness.

Evil's idea of destroying evil is show more evil.

Matthew 5

43“You have heard that it was said, ‘YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR and hate your enemy.’ 44“But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46“For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47“If you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? 48“Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.



The parable of the minas or talents goes to show God gives different measures of what is right to people. To whom much is given much more is expected.

47“And that slave who knew his master’s will and did not get ready or act in accord with his will, will receive many lashes, 48but the one who did not know it, and committed deeds worthy of a flogging, will receive but few. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and to whom they entrusted much, of him they will ask all the more.

The Muslims might have couple coins, There is a God, He is a good guy.

They certainly don't have your full advantage.



Here is a parable that describes you perfectly:

Matthew 18

23“For this reason the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his slaves. 24“When he had begun to settle them, one who owed him ten thousand talents was brought to him. 25“But since he did not have the means to repay, his lord commanded him to be sold, along with his wife and children and all that he had, and repayment to be made. 26“So the slave fell to the ground and prostrated himself before him, saying, ‘Have patience with me and I will repay you everything.’ 27“And the lord of that slave felt compassion and released him and forgave him the debt. 28“But that slave went out and found one of his fellow slaves who owed him a hundred denarii; and he seized him and began to choke him,saying, ‘Pay back what you owe.’ 29“So his fellow slave fell to the ground and began to plead with him, saying, ‘Have patience with me and I will repay you.’ 30“But he was unwilling and went and threw him in prison until he should pay back what was owed. 31“So when his fellow slaves saw what had happened, they were deeply grieved and came and reported to their lord all that had happened. 32“Then summoning him, his lord said to him, ‘You wicked slave, I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. 33‘Should you not also have had mercy on your fellow slave, in the same way that I had mercy on you?’ 34“And his lord, moved with anger, handed him over to the torturers until he should repay all that was owed him. 35“My heavenly Father will also do the same to you, if each of you does not forgive his brother from your heart.”


^I think this is your case. I feel like you have no mercy. Those Muslims , Jews, Athiests those you choke to pay what they owe.

You don't appreciate the grace given, you hold it over other people's heads.

 

Is that what Jesus called him?

 

If grace can be had without belief in Christ, then his death was unnecesssary ... and so is his false Gospel.

John 4:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me."

 

Why? You do know the middle east is where Christianity was born, right? There are millions of Christians in the middle east. Have you not heard how tens of thousands have been born Muslim and Jew and have come to reject those religions and began following Jesus Christ and His definition of love thy neighbor? Where have you been?

There is no "deep" explaining needed. God made it so simple. ALL are lost, yes even those who believe they love everybody and would do anything for their neighbor. ALL of them are lost. Only one way to be saved, BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. No good works save, No loving saves, ONLY Faith alone in Jesus Christ. Only then will one's Love count for anything. It must start with loving the LORD Jesus Christ. Rejecting Him is condemnation. Mo understood this, he just hated it bc like ALL false religions, the founder wants to make works the central matter unto salvation. God shouts NO! By Grace Ye are saved through faith and this NOT OF YOURSELVES!!!!!

Nice gesture, but if you don't understand Jesus is the only way and you do not tell me the same, then you are buckling us both in for a ride to hell. Jesus spoke well of those who rejected Him as the Son of God...."But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in."

Why did He tell them this? Because they rejected Him and His message, as does the Muslims and Jews today.

 

You seriously think the Muslims and Jews do not understand what Christians believe about Jesus Christ?

Well then, that parable is speaking of a lost man who displayed his void of faith. He proved he did not believe by not forgiving others even though he knew God's kingdom is about forgiveness through the cross of Jesus Christ. So what are you saying?

 

Jesus stated what it means to believe in him. Its not mere acknowledgement of existence or identity.

Even Satan believes in Jesus.

 

Yes.

Does that make Peter Satan? Do you believe Peter is SATAN?

I believe Peter is just being chewed out.

 

They have their own beliefs just like the GOOD SAMARITAN has. And that is who Jesus chose as example of Love God and Love neighbor.

Do you know what bigot means? I don't think you know what the word means.

 

Brother who is the pharisee? They believe only themselves chosen and saved. They are the one shutting the door on anyone who is not like them. Sound familiar? look up the word BIGOT.

They will not stand for any other religion pharisee only.


Listen to what a christian sounds like:

Romans 9

3For I could wish that I myself were accursed, separated from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh,

Paul is saying he is willing to go to hell, separate from Christ, to SAVE his brethren.

You willing to go to hell for some Muslim and Jews? Paul is NOTHING like you.

If you ever came CLOSE to even HINT to sound like Paul does here..... I would be in total shock.

Say it, I dare you. Good people are self-sacrificing. It doesn't have a brand name.


Jesus is the only way, NOT YOUR JESUS. Your Jesus is worst then Hitler. LOOK UP the word BIGOT.

The TRUE Jesus is a billion times more patient ,understanding ,merciful then then the terrorist chimp you got peddling around.

Your representation of Jesus is a insult to God. You proclaim a monster.


You willing to go to hell for your Jewish brethren, like Paul?

That's a Christian thing, your not going to understand that while passing judgement on others.

 

Yeah, Paul gave his life to go and PREACH THE GOSPEL to the heathen! He didn't go around condemning preachers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ like you are, and he certainly did not preach Rome's false Gospel either.

You sir need to repent, you are in fact the one that is self righteous, as you have elevated the traditions of the Catholic Church, and your own beliefs and feelings above the words of God and Jesus Christ.

There is no salvation without faith in the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, there is no second change after death, for God says "it is appointed unto every man once to die, but after this the judgment", all people who do not put their trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, his death, burial, and resurrection, will die and go to hell, and eventually will end up in the lake of fire for eternity.

others have already shown from the scriptures that ALL are condemned by their sin, ALL have sinned and the wages of sin is death. God is infinitely holy, and sin is an affront to his holy character, Read Isaiah 6 and see the vision of the angels crying "HOLY HOLY HOLY", See God destroying Sodom and Ghomorrah with fire and brimstone, see God destroy the whole world with a flood, See in the book of Revelation all of the terrible judgments as God pours out his wrath upon the world for their sin. One of those sins we are told is that the inhabitants of the earth are worshipping idols. Do you know what an idol is? it is a false representation of God, the god of Islam is an idol, the gods of hinduism are idols, the god of Roman Catholicism is an idol, the worship and veneration and praying to Mary is idolatry, God hates idolatry and idolatry will take a person to hell. There is one true God that can save, See Acts 17 where Paul preached against idols and said that now "God commandeth all men everywhere to repent". God commands ALL MEN, everywhere to REPENT, to turn from trusting in their idols, to trusting in the true and living God and his Son Jesus Christ. Utilyan and Matt Janes, Repent of your idolatry you who have exalted your human understanding and reasoning above the word of the true and living God. Your only hope is to turn from trusting in your own feelings and emotions and to be believe what God's word says, YOU ARE SINNERS, YOUR SINS CONDEMNS YOU TO HELL, but JESUS died for your sins, was buried and rose again, and YOU MUST REPENT AND BELIEVE THIS GOSPEL. Repent or you WILL PERISH.

 

I have included a short study on Repentance to help you and anyone else reading this thread understand:


The word repent is a compound word Metanoeo

"Meta" meaning "change", and "Noeo" meaning "mind". So we can say that repentance is a change of mind. the question is: a change of mind about what?

The best way I can see it is I see Repentance is a change of mind in 3 areas.

1. About Sin

We must realize the severity of our sin in the eyes of a holy God, the fact that we are condemned by sin, and we must accept the guilt of our sin.Some people refuse to believe the Gospel and trust Christ because they love their sin, oftentimes a love for sin causes many to reject the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Revelation 9:20-21 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

Revelation 16:9-11And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds

2 Cor 7:10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

See also Romans 3:23, 3:10, 6:23.

2. About Self

We must realize that we have no righteousness of our own, we have no merit in ourselves to earn salvation, and all our righteousness is as filthy rags in God's eyes, no amount of works can make up for or cover our sins.

Isaiah 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

Luke 18:9-14 And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess. And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

Romans 3:10-20As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: Their feet are swift to shed blood: Destruction and misery are in their ways: And the way of peace have they not known: There is no fear of God before their eyes. Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

Hebrews 6:1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,

When people do religious rituals, good deeds, or other works to earn forgiveness of sin, that is called "DEAD WORKS"

3. About the Saviour

We must change our mind and repent about Christ, there must be an acceptance of him as the payment for our sins, an accepting that his name is the only name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved, that he is the way the truth and the life and that no man can come unto the Father but by him. We turn to him and must place all of our faith and trust in the Gospel of Jesus Christ and in the Christ of the Gospel as the one who does all of the saving our our soul from sin.

This aspect of repentance implies a turning from the thing which one is trusting, whether it's an idol, money, possessions, false religion, etc

1 Timothy 6:16 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

1 Th 1:9 For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;

Acts 17:29-30 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

(Note this is a command to repent and believe in the true God as opposed to trusting in idols, the context is a repentance about idolatry one must turn from trusting in idols to trusting in Christ in order to be saved)

Acts 19:4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.

Acts 20:29 Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Timothy 2:24-26 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

 

I can't say otherwise, as that's what Jesus called him.

At the very least that show's he wasn't much of a "pope," if the first thing he said got him "chewing out." LOL and it seems like being called Satan by the Son of God is a little more than a chewing out.

But if you really want to know my beliefs about it, it's this: Peter, the one who speaks first and thinks later, was especially vulnerable to Satan, who asked to "sift him like wheat. There's no question he was the main spokesman for the apostles-- speaking being an ability he could misuse. So Satan was 'there' with Peter, and as he made one of his 'speeches' without thought-- telling Jesus he would not die on the cross as he was telling them-- I think Jesus was addressing the 'real' Satan, who was such in influence of Peter's words and actions. "Heroic people have heroic flaws," as has been said. This was true of Peter and the rest of the 11 faithful until the Holy Spirit came upon them with special power. Even then old Peter still had to rebuked by Paul at Antioch.

 

The Pharisees would agree with you. They too believe in the damned Samaritan.

If we shoved folks of like mind like you in a building there would be no one left after a week.

Cause its the same bigot spirit that has been the problem to the entire human race. You would never tolerate each other.

Saintly folks from different religions have no problem getting along with each other. They have Saintly folks and they also all have bigots. You know what there is a Muslim and Jewish board out there with this same conversation going on. The peace keepers trust God and bigots they swear we are going to hell.

If we can get all you like minded folks in together in one place it would be Armageddon.

Me and Matt. Matt is not of my faith. We wouldn't have to worry about each other on account that God is not a jerk.

Subconsciously we are all on the same side. You literally are giving us information to protect us from God.
Its like deep down you even hate your idea of God.
I'm giving you information so you can let God protect you from you.
Terrorism has you hostage. Cause you bought into the lie that God is less reasonable then you are.

I believe the bible.

2 Timothy 3
16All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness;

You follow man made rules and try to add these fake rules to the bible.

You swear there is a bible verse that plainly says the BIBLE is the Final and Only authority concerning Christianity.

Show us this bible verse.


Here's your chance, save me brother show me that bible verse you swear to God is there.

I'm not going to follow Liars. You are not a Liar, show us that bible verse.

 

.

Pope really just means pops, papa, father. The position is Bishop of Rome. And he still has the keys.

And Popes make tons of mistakes, some have even been flat out evil.

 

The Vicar of Christ "flat out evil". Nice. I guess you have Popes in hell then correct? Or does everybody eventually get to go to heaven? As long as they do a few good deeds somewhere at sometime.
