He got into a boat and taught from it while the people listened on the beach. He used many illustrations such as this one in his sermon: Matthew 13:1-3 TLB<br /><br />“30 And throw the useless servant out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’<br />31 “But when I, the Messiah, shall come in my glory, and all the angels with me, then I shall sit upon my throne of glory. 32 And all the nations shall be gathered before me. And I will separate the people as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, 33 and place the sheep at my right hand, and the goats at my left.<br />34 “Then I, the King, shall say to those at my right, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, into the Kingdom prepared for you from the founding of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you fed me; I was thirsty and you gave me water; I was a stranger and you invited me into your homes; 36 naked and you clothed me; sick and in prison, and you visited me.’<br />37 “Then these righteous ones will reply, ‘Sir, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you anything to drink? 38 Or a stranger, and help you? Or naked, and clothe you? 39 When did we ever see you sick or in prison, and visit you?’<br />40 “And I, the King, will tell them, ‘When you did it to these my brothers, you were doing it to me!’ 41 Then I will turn to those on my left and say, ‘Away with you, you cursed ones, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his demons. 42 For I was hungry and you wouldn’t feed me; thirsty, and you wouldn’t give me anything to drink; 43 a stranger, and you refused me hospitality; naked, and you wouldn’t clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn’t visit me.’<br />44 “Then they will reply, ‘Lord, when did we ever see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and not help you?’<br />45 “And I will answer, ‘When you refused to help the least of these my brothers, you were refusing help to me.’<br />46 “And they shall go away into eternal punishment; but the righteous into everlasting life.” Matthew 25:30-46 TLB<br /><br />10 His disciples came and asked him, “Why do you always use these hard-to-understand illustrations?”<br />11 Then he explained to them that only they were permitted to understand about the Kingdom of Heaven, and others were not.<br />12-13 “For to him who has will more be given,” he told them, “and he will have great plenty; but from him who has not, even the little he has will be taken away. That is why I use these illustrations, so people will hear and see but not understand.<br />14 “This fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah:<br />‘They hear, but don’t understand; they look, but don’t see! 15 For their hearts are fat and heavy, and their ears are dull, and they have closed their eyes in sleep, 16 so they won’t see and hear and understand and turn to God again, and let me heal them.’<br />But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear. 17 Many a prophet and godly man has longed to see what you have seen and hear what you have heard, but couldn’t.

The problem for conspiracy theorists is that they are bound by the twisted logic of many of their conspiracies. Christ is not a conspiracy. Many of those who represent His teachings have distorted them and misrepresent Him. He brings a Gospel to set us free of stultifying materialism; our over actualised ego-centrism and the destructive self-centredness of our society. Little wonder our society and the one Angirfan portrays is so vile and self-destructive when it is now almost totally ignoring the message of salvation He brings from the very illness which has deformed humanity.LeonGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02778834856947933957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003998945645458544.post-10045053393829660762014-11-19T20:35:40.511-08:002014-11-19T20:35:40.511-08:00No my friend, Jesus fixed it for me...not you.

ALWAYS SEARCH BENEATH THE COVERINGS TO INSPECT THAT WHICH THEY DO NOT TELL YOU AND FURTHER, CHECK CAREFULLY THOSE THINGS THAT THEY EXTRACT FROM YOU. TRUTH AND WISDOM IN TRUTH ARE GIVEN WITH NO PRICE OF TREASURE NOR POWER OF FORCE. <br /><br />"You shall recognize these ones by the fruit they bear. Can a person gather grapes from the thorns, and figs from the thistles? Therefore, every good tree brings forth good fruit, but a bad tree brings forth wicked fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth wicked fruit and a bad tree cannot bring forth good fruit. Therefore, by their fruit shall you know them. <br /><br />"Therefore, he who hears my speech and follows it, is like a smart man who built his house on the rock. And he who hears this speech and does not follow it is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. And when the flash flood rushed forth upon him and the strong winds were blowing against the house, it collapsed and fell. So be it that ye who have wisdom to heed my words shall reap of great unbounded rewards."<br />And after Jmmanuel had finished his discourse the people were stunned and shocked at his wisdom and knowledge and were surprised at his teachings, for he spoke with total authority and severity of tone, anew teaching and not as the other of their own scribes. They mumbled about among themselves in great wonder at this gentle man who spoke so emphatically of the truth which was laden with reason and logic."<br /><br />Sorry for the multiple postings.

You must insure respite that the body not be fatigued into illness and you should not remove responsibility from others in that you perceive ye should tend of others who can tend of themselves. You should take care in thy charity that it be worthy in its placement.<br /><br />"Ye must also care for the following day, for tomorrow will not care for you by itself. It is enough that each day has its own cares so that you should not have to worry about the needs of your physical well being but ye should not dwell nor horde for the supplies will but rot and deteriorate. Take care in moderation and in expected need but do not place such stress on the morrow that ye do not use those things given unto you for the use of today.<br /><br />Then Jmmanuel asked those gathered with him to consider "Judgment". <br /><br />"Judge not falsely lest you be falsely judged. For with whatever judgment you judge, so will you be judged, and with whatever measure you measure, so will you be measured. Therefore, judge according to the logic of the Laws of nature, which are from The Creation, for they alone are true and accurate. <br /><br />"What do you see but the splinter in your brother's eye, and are you not aware of the sliver in thine own eye? You hypocrite, first, pull the sliver out from your own eye, and then see how you can pull the splinter out of your brother's eye.<br /><br />"First, learn the Laws of nature and of The Creation, their logic, before you judge and want to see the mistakes of your fellow man. First, learn through the Laws of nature and of The Creation your own mistakes, so that you can correct the mistakes of your fellow man. <br /><br />"You should never give sacred things unto the dogs nor throw your pearls before the swine, lest they step on them with their feet and turn on you and tear you apart. For verily I say unto you, do not throw your spiritual treasures into the dirt and do not waste them on those who are unworthy, for they do not thank you, and they will tear you apart, for their understanding is small and their spirit is weak.<br />ASK, SEEK, AND THE GOLDEN RULE<br /><br />"Ask and it shall be given unto you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you. For he who asks of his spirit, receives, and he who seeks through the power of spirit, finds, and he who knocks at the door of his spirit, to him it will be opened. <br /><br />"Who is there among you who, if his son asked him for bread would give him a stone? Or, if he asked you for a fish would you offer him a serpent? Therefore, if you, even though you are being wicked, can still give your children good gifts, how much more will your spirit give unto you if you request it?" So be it .<br /><br />"Everything that you would have people do unto you, also do that unto them. That is the law according to the prophets. Enter through the narrow portal, for the portal and the path leading to condemnation are wide, and there are many that walk thereon. And the portal and the path leading to Life and Knowledge are narrow, and there are only a very few that find of it. BEWARE---Beware of false prophets and scribes who come in to you in sheep's clothing, but inside they are like raving wolves, and preach to you humility to shrines, false deities and gods, and preach to you of humility to idols and false teachings.<br />Adamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003998945645458544.post-15155027075776131592014-11-19T13:07:45.778-08:002014-11-19T13:07:45.778-08:00RULES TO LIVE BY

Verily I say to you, they have no reward inasmuch as they fast only for selfish reasons, for the sake of appearance. But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your countenance, lest you appear before the people with your fasting, but before your own spirit which is hidden. You fast for the sake of your health, the expansion of your spirit and knowledge in wisdom and naught else. Any other reason is self indulgent and for the appearance unto others.<br /><br />"Ye shall neither amass great treasures on Earth where they are eaten by moths and rust, and where thieves dig for them and steal them. For where your treasure is, there also is your heart, and the true treasure is wisdom and knowledge. When thy Earth journey is complete ye shall be separated from all Earthly treasurers so better you build thy treasures in the realms of Heaven.<br /><br />"The eye is the light of your body. If your eye is clear then your entire body will be light. Vision goes beyond that which is witnessed by a sighted eye. If your eye is evil, your entire body will be most dark. If the light in you is dark, how great will the darkness be.<br /><br />"Nobody can serve two masters; either he will hate one and love the other, or he will adhere to one and despise the other. You cannot serve your spirit and the mammon.<br /><br />"Therefore I say unto you, do care about the knowledge of your spirit, about that which you eat and drink, and care about your body and what you will wear. For, is it not the spirit life and the body more important than all the treasures of the world? The spirit of man which is thirsting for truth and knowledge cannot preserve his earthly life without his body, for they are one. <br /><br />"Man should take care to increase the knowledge of his spirit, care about the laws of life, and have concern with food, drink and clothing, on behalf of his body which houses his spirit. But ye shall not spend of thy time in concern of storing up great treasures for ye need them not.<br /><br />"Behold the birds below the sky; they eat the harmful insects, and they have feathers as clothes, yet they have no spirit. They work because this is their duty, and they are fed and clothed by The Creation. Are you not more than they? You can think independently through your free spirit and the great and wondrous thinking mind God has given unto thee, you can work independently, and you can independently prepare food and drink and clothe your body and it is your responsibility to do this for yourself. <br /><br />"Behold the lilies in the marsh where they grow; they do not work, nor do they spin, yet, verily I say to you, the lilies also fulfill their duty by giving pleasure to the eye with their beauty. I say to you, that Solomon in all his splendor was not clothed as any one of those blossoms. Should you not do so much more for yourself since The Creation sustains and clothes the grass on the field which is here today and thrown into the oven tomorrow?<br /><br />"The grass fulfills its duty by serving as fodder and fuel; but you, of little faith, are you not much more than the grasses? <br /><br />"Therefore, take care for the wisdom and knowledge of your spirit, and take care lest you suffer from lack of food, drink, and clothing, for verily I say to you, if you suffer from hunger, thirst and nakedness, wisdom and knowledge are driven away because of worry for thy mind will not find freedom. Neither shall ye neglect your own attention to caring for self in that ye depend upon another to supply these things unto you unless ye are infirm and have an interval of inability to tend of self.<br />Adamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003998945645458544.post-52012297993447153182014-11-19T13:06:56.146-08:002014-11-19T13:06:56.146-08:00"You have also heard that it has been said: y..."You have also heard that it has been said: you shall love thy neighbor and hate your enemy. But I tell you: exercise love and understanding according to the natural Law of The Creation, so that you act and feel rightly according to justice and logic. Exercise love where it is warranted and despise where the Law of Nature demands punishment.<br /><br />PERFECTION OF SPIRIT<br /><br />"You shall be wise and learn knowledge, for you shall become perfect in spirit as The Creation which created you. You shall train your spirit in the course of incarnations at many, many levels and let your spirit become perfection, thus you can become ONE WITH THE CREATION." And thus it was that Immanuel taught those ones who came unto him in search of wisdom and truth. He continued his teaching thusly: "Watch your piety, practice it before the people with right words, lest you be accused by them of lying, whereby you find no reward from them. <br /><br />"Choose your words in accord with logic and consider the knowledge and behavior of nature. <br /><br />"When you give alms, you shall not publicize this as do the hypocrites in the synagogues and in the streets in order to be praised by the people who witness. Verily I say unto you, they have no reward, because they give alms solely for selfish reasons.<br />PRAYER<br /><br />"When you pray, you shall call upon the omnipotence of the spirit, and you should not babble as do the ignorant and selfish, for they think that they are heard because they use many, and grand, words. The spirit of man does not require many words, but it requires the knowledge of its power. Pray, therefore, in knowledge to the almightiness of the spirit that its grandeur and power is infinite. <br /><br />"If you do not know how to pray directly to the almighty power of the spirit, then use instead something sacred through which you will enter into the spirit. But never be like the ignorant, the hypocrites, and the selfish who revere some "thing" or object believing that the almighty power of the spirit somehow dwells within "it". Ye must be aware that the object is only an opening of the way through which the almighty power of the spirit can be reached within thy self. Therefore, pray as ones that "know", and therefore you should pray thusly:<br /><br />A PERFECT PRAYER<br /><br />"MY SPIRIT, YOU ARE OMNIPOTENT. YOUR NAME IS HOLY. MAY YOUR REALM BE INCARNATE IN ME. MAY YOUR POWER REVEAL ITSELF WITHIN ME, ON EARTH AND IN THE HEAVEN. GIVE ME TODAY MY DAILY BREAD, AND THUS, LET ME RECOGNIZE MY TRANSGRESSIONS AND ERRORS, AND I SHALL RECOGNIZE THE TRUTH. AND DO NOT LEAD ME INTO TEMPTATION AND CONFUSION, BUT DELIVER ME FROM ERROR. FOR YOURS IS THE REALM WITHIN ME AND THE POWER AND THE KNOWLEDGE FOREVER, AMEN.<br /><br />"For when you pray to your spirit, whatever you request will be given to you if it truly is a desire, for believe with knowledge and you will receive.<br /><br />SPIRITUAL POVERTY<br /><br />"If you believe in false teachings, namely that power and spirit do not dwell within you, then you will be without knowledge and live in spiritual poverty. Though you will receive, now and then, that which you will ask for in your false belief of alienated sanctuaries-idols and gods, you will receive only because of your strong false belief, without knowledge of the real truth. For verily I say to you, blessed are only they who serve the real truth and knowledge, for only they are to receive in honesty.<br />Adamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003998945645458544.post-48807463223546535422014-11-19T13:04:38.880-08:002014-11-19T13:04:38.880-08:00Apologies if there's some repetition here:
&q...Apologies if there's some repetition here:<br /><br />""You have heard that it has been said to the old: you shall not kill; but he who kills shall be judged by the court. I tell you, be just according to the natural Law of The Creation, so that you will find the judgment in logic and reason with wisdom. Guilty are all who do not act in self defense or according to a given verdict, when they kill or speak and practice evil. Justice according to the natural Laws of The Creation, by Itself, elevates a verdict into logic. <br /><br />"Do not accommodate or oblige your adversaries when you are right and the judge will probably decide in your favor if thy judge be of honor and without parochialism and bigotry. Verily I say unto you, you will obtain justice only when you find Truth yourself and can make your fellow man understand of it. <br /><br />ADULTERY, COHABITATION AND MARRIAGE<br /><br />"You have heard that it has been said: you should not commit adultery. But I tell you, he who cohabits with someone other than his spouse and practices in the manner of ones bounded in marriage with such commitment, should be caused to terminate such condition and circumstance, for it is unworthy of mankind, abhorrent and filled with lascivious selfishness for physical pleasure without thought or responsibility unto the consequences thereof. It is in creation of unbalance and disharmony for at all times does such activity impinge upon the justness one to another. If ones practice physical pleasures with ones of the same earth species of male or female, thy physical activities will be the carriers of disease and carnal consequences for it is against the natural Laws of The Creation for in thy logical reason it is most obviously incorrect and ill intended.<br /><br />"If your right or left eye vexes you, pull it out and throw it away from you. It is better that only one of your limbs be ruined and not thy entire body. If a thought beleaguers you, then destroy it and ban it from your mind. It is better to destroy a thought that incites annoyance and subsequent invidious behavior, and not to bring the entire world of thought into an uproar. <br /><br />"It is further being said: he who separates from his spouse should give him or her a letter of separation. But I tell you, he who leaves his spouse except in the case of adultery (and I care not for physical, legal documentation but those, also, who do dwell in the marriage rituals), causes the marriage to break. He who then marries one who has caused such a break, is then also guilty of committing adultery.<br /><br />FALSE SWEARING<br />"Furthermore, you have also heard that it has been said to the old: you shall not swear falsely, but only keep your oath to God. But I tell you that you shall never swear, neither to Heaven which is infinite and cannot be measured, nor to the Earth for it passes, nor to Jerusalem, for it is not an eternal city and is built by the hand of man. Nor shall you swear on your own head, for you cannot change the color of a single hair which springs forth from the root of the hair. Neither shall ye swear by the memory of a person or thing, for all are fleeting.<br /><br />"At all times, let your speech be only: yes, yes or no, or no. Whatever is beyond that violates the Laws.<br /><br />"AN EYE FOR AN EYE?"<br />You have heard that it has been said: an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. But I tell you, exercise justice according to the natural Law of Creation, so that you find the verdict in logic and wisdom. Exercise love where it is warranted, and punish where the Law of nature demands punishment. Ye shall, further, remain within the Laws of The Creation in deciding justice for ye may not impinge upon the Laws of The Creation in that which has already been laid down for thy judgment in wisdom.<br /><br />"Give unto him who asks of you, if the request is made sincerely, and turn thee away from him who asks of you in dishonesty to deprive you of that which is yours in order to elevate his own comfort and status...Adamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003998945645458544.post-22647049358535626192014-11-19T12:58:53.403-08:002014-11-19T12:58:53.403-08:00For many people, the Biblical Jesus story is the a...For many people, the Biblical Jesus story is the absolute truth. For many others, it and the rest of the Bible is a tissue of lies from start to finish, nothing more than a control arm of the bad guys who have oppressed humanity from the start.<br /><br />I think the truth is somewhere in the middle. What if a man we know today as Jesus - even if that wasn't his real name - existed and lived a life exemplary of God, which by its very definition would be in direct opposition to all the corrupt elites? What if, following the vagaries of human nature, 'Jesus' the wayshower later came to be worshipped as God Himself - entirely against his own mission and wishes? What if the 'Jesus' stories that followed were in any case first written decades after he walked the earth? And what if those Bible stories were then retranslated, rewritten, embellished and redacted over the succeeding 2000 years in order to suit the purposes of the very elites that were so threatened by 'Jesus's teachings? <br /><br />Sounds like a good plan by the bad guys. And looks like it's working.<br /><br />And what if God then sent us the truth of all this, so we can make our own choices in knowledge? What if, for example, the Sermon on the Mount actually was grounded in spiritual truth and logic, and revealed the power that resides in every one of us? Makes sense to me.<br /><br />This is how the Sermon on the Mount actually looked. Far more here: http://www.phoenixsourcedistributors.com/PJ_02.pdf and here: http://www.phoenixsourcedistributors.com.<br /><br />"Blessed are they who are rich in spirit and recognize the truth, for life belongs to them.<br /><br />"Blessed are they who lament, for they shall see the truth therein and shall be<br />comforted.<br /><br />"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for truth and knowledge, for they shall be satisfied and given wisdom.<br /><br />"Blessed are they who obey the Law of nature and The Creation, for they live<br />according to the plan of The Creation.<br /><br />"Blessed are they who have a clear conscience and who listen unto their conscience in truth, for they need not fear.<br /><br />"Blessed are they who believe in The Creation, for they do not follow false teachings.<br /><br />"Blessed are the righteous for nature is subject unto them.<br /><br />"Blessed art thou when men shall revile you because of our teachings and because of me, persecute you and falsely speak evil against you.<br /><br />"Rejoice and be comforted, for life and the new life will reward you. Thusly did they persecute the prophets who were here before you.<br /><br />"You are the salt of the Earth. When the salt loses its savor, with what will you salt? It is of no further use except to be thrown out and stepped on by the people. You are the Light of the world. The city that is on top of a mountain cannot remain hidden. Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but rather place it on a candlestick, and it gives light to all the people in the house. Let your light so shine before the people so that they will see your good works and recognize the truth of your knowledge.<br /><br />"Do not think that I have come to dissolve the Law or the prophets, I have not come to dissolve, but to fulfill and to reveal knowledge.<br /><br />"Thusly I tell you the truth. Until Heaven and Earth vanish, not the smallest letter nor one iota of the Law of Creation and the Laws of nature will disappear, until all has been fulfilled. <br /><br />"He who violates the smallest Law, or violates the smallest commandment and teaches people falsely will be called the least; but, he who spreads the teachings in truth will be called the greatest and the spirit will thank him.

I had maintained that the Jesus person probably existed, having fantastic and impossible stories later foisted upon his earthly life, passed by oral tradition then recorded many decades after Jesus lived.<br /><br />After exhaustive research for my first book, I began to perceive both the brilliance and darkness from history. I discovered that many early Christian fathers believed with all pious sincerity their savior never came to earth—or when he did, it was Star-Trekian style, beamed down pre-haloed and fully-grown, sans transvaginal egress. Moreover I expose many other startling bombshells in my book <i>No Meek Messiah</i>.<br /><br />I embarked upon one exercise to revive research into Jesus-era writers who should have recorded Christ tales, but did not. John Remsburg enumerated forty-one "silent" historians in his book <i>The Christ</i> (1909). I dedicated months of research to augment Remsburg's list, finally tripling his count. In <i>No Meek Messiah</i> I provide a list of 126 writers who should have recorded something of Jesus, with exhaustive references.<br /><br />Perhaps the most bewildering "silent one" is the mythical super-savior himself, Jesus the Son of God ostensibly sent on a suicide mission to save us from the childish notion of "Adam's Transgression" as we learn from Romans 5:14. The Jesus character is a phantom of a wisp of a personage who never wrote anything. So, add one more: 127. <br /><br />Read the rest:<br /><br />http://www.jesusneverexisted.com/paulkovich.htmlInfidelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003998945645458544.post-15625458753668806912014-11-19T05:16:07.045-08:002014-11-19T05:16:07.045-08:00Identity

Oliver (Liberty Bell, June 1989)<br /><br />We all feel a certain sympathy for the cult called "British Israel" or, in this country, "Identity." It is an attempt to make Christianity innocuous by claiming that Yahweh's rabble of marauders, thieves, and swindlers, whose depredations are exalted in the "Old Testament," were our Aryan and probably Anglo-Saxon ancestors. That makes it possible to claim that the Jesus of the "New Testament" was not a Jew. <br /><br />Continues:<br /><br />http://www.revilo-oliver.com/rpo/Identity.html<br /><br /><b>The Lost Ten Tribes</b><br /><br />by Professor Revilo P. Oliver (private correspondence, December 1989)<br /><br />THE BRITISH ISRAEL nonsense has its origins in the Jews' myth about the "lost ten tribes," who were the Sheenies who had scattered throughout the civilized world and set up their colonies wherever the natives were sufficiently industrious and prosperous to be fleeced. In the Middle Ages there were all sort of tales about where the ten tribes were living, and this drivel was given a great impetus in the time of Cromwell, when a Kike turned up with the story that he had found in Peru a tribe of Indians who understood and spoke Hebrew and so must be descendants of the "ten tribes." This eventually produced Joseph Smith's variety of Christianity, which I mentioned in the December 1989 issue of <i>Liberty Bell</i>.<br /><br />The Puritans of the Commonwealth and perhaps Cromwell himself (unless he was cynically repaying the Yids who had financed his revolution) were suckers for propaganda to the effect that the kindred peoples, God's Race and the English, if united, would rule the world, but so far as I know, the specific statement that the "ten tribes" had migrated to Britain was first made by a Huguenot refugee in England named Abbadie around 1688; the only edition of his book, <i>Le triomphe de la providence et de la religion</i>, known to me was published at Amsterdam in 1723, but may not be the first.<br /><br />The "British Israel Movement" was begun by an English lunatic, Richard Brothers, who, in 1793, discovered that he was God's Nephew, because God = Jesus, and he was the son of Jesus's brother, Jakob (James); there were, of course, some chronological difficulties in fixing his birthday, but with God all things are possible. Brothers, therefore, was by his glorious heredity, the "Prince of the Jews" and the destined ruler of the world, and therefore the true King of Great Britain. George III did not agree, and Brothers accordingly was locked up for a while, but there were in England persons no more intelligent than he, including at least one an influential Whig in the Parliament; they procured his release and censored his ravings so that they could be published without exciting derision. The only one I have seen is entitled <i>A Correct Account of the Invasion and Conquest of this Island by the Saxons,...the Descendants of the Greater Part of the Ten Tribes</i>.<br /><br />This kind of hogwash, doubtless financed by the Yids, was especially popular as justifying the admission of undisguised Kikes to full British citizenship, and as fostering the comforting dream of British-Jewish dominion over the world, as decreed by old Yahweh. <br /><br />Continues:<br /><br />http://www.revilo-oliver.com/rpo/Lost_Ten_Tribes.html<br /><br />Infidelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003998945645458544.post-53546250840797238612014-11-19T04:56:17.035-08:002014-11-19T04:56:17.035-08:00I have noticed that those who believe in the deity...I have noticed that those who believe in the deity of Jesus Christ seem to be very "evangelical" and even fanatical in seeking to prove his divinity.

I can barely read it because it's nonsense. Got the point though.

Of course, it is most probable that the people of Israel were praying; and the Lord heard those prayers and relented, but that isn't what the text says.<br /><br />The only explanation I can offer is that these verses are portraying God as both judgmental and compassionate. Furthermore, God's compassion is demonstrated in His relenting to destroy Jerusalem, which God surely knew would be the future place of Christ's crucifixion, which may have had something to do with the Lord not destroying it.'

It is a history of wickedness that has served to corrupt and brutalize humankind. And, for my own part, I sincerely detest it, as I detest everything that is cruel. -- Thomas Paine, <i>The Age of Reason</i> <br /><br />Continues:<br /><br />http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/cruelty/long.html<br /><br /><b>Murder in the Bible</b><br /><br />The act of murder is rampant in the Bible. In much of the Bible, especially the Old Testament, there are laws that command that people be killed for absurd reasons such as working on the Sabbath, being gay, cursing your parents, or not being a virgin on your wedding night. In addition to these crazy and immoral laws, there are plenty of examples of God's irrationality by his direct killing of many people for reasons that defy any rational explanation such as killing children who make fun of bald people, and the killing of a man who tried to keep the ark of God from falling during transport. There are also countless examples of mass murders commanded by God, including the murder of women, infants, and children.<br /><br /> The following passages are a very small percentage of the total passages approving of murder in the Bible. They are divided here into three parts: 1) Capital Punishment Crimes, 2) God's Murders for Stupid Reasons, 3) Murdering Children, and 4) Miscellaneous Murders. This list is long, but it barely scratches the surface of all the murders approved of in the Bible.<br /><br />Continues:<br /><br />http://www.evilbible.com/Murder.htm<br /><br /><b>Bible atrocities</b><br /><br />http://www.goatstar.org/atrocities-committed-or-commanded-by-god/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003998945645458544.post-50965726295715044872014-11-17T23:27:46.803-08:002014-11-17T23:27:46.803-08:00Aangirfan you are NOT... pathetic.

God is good to all, but He also judges and punishes sin. The ancient Canaanites were punished and dispossessed. They were given over 100 years to repent.<br /><br /> Other times God forgives when the offender is contrite before Him. In the Book of Jonah... God sends the unwilling prophet to the enemy of Israel.. Nineveh. Much to the dismay of Jonah, God pardons Nineveh because they repented.<br /><br />In this post modern, morally ambiguous world judgement, repentance, sin, transgression, commandments, atonement, etc. are unpopular words. <br /><br />Yet, everyone believes that there are moral wrongs; The Late Christopher Hitchens believed it was Christianity, his brother Peter believes it is the lack thereof. <br /><br />As a Christian, I can absolutely judge pedophilia as an immoral act (against God) and therefore wrong (sin, transgression) -even if the child supposedly likes it- or if it becomes fashionable and the New World Order declares it legal.

The writings Of Paul which were written earlier than John's Gospel contain passages that declare his Deity. <br /><br />3.
