65% of white democrats don't believe in all knowing all powerful all loving God

[Calminian]

“But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a person. For out of the heart come evil ideas, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. These are the things that defile a person; it is not eating with unwashed hands that defiles a person.”” (Matthew 15:18–20) (NET)

Yes, but where does it say there is no such thing as political sin? Where does it say once you enter politics, no sin should be called out?

 

[1689Dave]

The gospel apart from the context of sin is a false gospel.

Yes, but you don't need politics to preach bible sin. If you align with politics, you are upholding sin while condemning it.

 

[Calminian]

No, it is apolitical. Leaving politics out of your profession of Christ.

That's a political opinion.

 

[1689Dave]

Yes, but where does it say there is no such thing as political sin? Where does it say once you enter politics, no sin should be called out?

Stick to the bible, and leave politics behind, and you will fairly represent Christ.

 

[Calminian]

Yes, but you don't need politics to preach bible sin. If you align with politics, you are upholding sin while condemning it.

But you mentioned the 10 commandments, which includes the sin of murder. Abortion is murder, and yet you're saying you can't talk about it.

 

[1689Dave]

That's a political opinion.

How so?

 

[Calminian]

Stick to the bible, and leave politics behind, and you will fairly represent Christ.

I can't. That would be disobeying the Bible.

 

[1689Dave]

But you mentioned the 10 commandments, which includes the sin of murder. Abortion is murder, and yet you're saying you can't talk about it.

Only from a biblical standpoint.

 

[Calminian]

How so?

Because you mentioned politics. You said leave politics out of it. Yet you keep mentioning politics. You can't follow your own advise. Your argument is self-defeating. You are very political and don't even realize it.

 

[1689Dave]

I can't. That would be disobeying the Bible.

How so?

 

[Bro. Curtis]

I think we speak the same as long as we remain politically neutral. Then everyone listens to us. Drag politics into it, and we're back preaching to the choir.

I think preachers should preach the message God gives them and not worry about how ol’ David feels about it.

 

[Calminian]

Only from a biblical standpoint.

Abortion is political. You mention abortion you are being political. You've backed yourself into a corner.

 

[Calminian]

How so?

The Bible says abortion (which is political) is sin.

 

[Calminian]

I think preachers should preach the message God gives them and not worry about how ol’ David feels about it.

Dave is more political than the preacher he's criticizing.

 

[1689Dave]

I think preachers should preach the message God gives them and not worry about how ol’ David feels about it.

I don't think we should wing it handling God's word.

 

[1689Dave]

The Bible says abortion (which is political) is sin.

It is sin before politics entered the picture. But you drive away those who need scripture most, by aligning with political ideologies they find repulsive.

 

[1689Dave]

Abortion is political. You mention abortion you are being political. You've backed yourself into a corner.

But how do you save lives driving people away from the medicine? Politics does this.

 

[Calminian]

It is sin before politics entered the picture. But you drive away those who need scripture most, by aligning with political ideologies they find repulsive.

Politics has always been in the picture. It's as old as people.

And you are espousing political ideologies while you're saying it's wrong. Do you finally realize this?

 

[Calminian]

But how do you save lives driving people away from the medicine? Politics does this.

You're confusing your role with God's. You're just a tool in his hand and if you abandon morality, you won't be used.

 

[Calminian]

But how do you save lives driving people away from the medicine? Politics does this.

I wasn't driven away by politics (morality). Nor was my wife. God used it to bring us to Christ.

And I'm wondering, are you still holding onto political sins? Is that why you want the subject dropped?
