Christianity: "Over and Done"

Its wonderful that he can sit in a tree all day achieving inner peace.
I bet all the people that labour and actualy do things, live, raise children (like him) would love to meditate all day too.
I bet they would be in a quiet meditative state too.
Yep.

 

Well, if I was really a self-righteous hypocrite I would be telling you about how good I am, and of all the wonderful things I have done for God. Yet the only thing I have done is to state what the Bible has all ready proclaimed. You stated that I should not put emphasis on how works can't save you. I'M SORRY, BUT THAT IS WHAT JESUS HAS BEEN SAYING ALL ALONG. And I'm not going to disagree with His message. Most of the world is going to Hell, THAT"S WHAT JESUS PROCLAIMS, and that's what the Bible has stated. And the Bible tells us the world will hate the truth. Jesus tells us, marvel not if the world hates you, they hated me first. You attack me only because I'm telling you what Jesus proclaims. Your fight is not with me, it's with the Words of Jesus Christ, which I just repeat. And anyone who agrees with Christ is going to anger the people of this world, becuase the world hates Christ and His message. And the only Christian's who are going to get along with the people of this world are the one's who soft soap the words of Christ. Jesus tells you, He did not come to bring peace to this world, He came to turn daughter against mother father against son, ect. He is calling His people out of this world.

 

You know what? This thread is simply filled with negative energy.


There is no point in seeking to say anything to those whose minds are completely closed off, and doing so is entirely non-productive of change.

I don't know what it would take to shake these fundamentalist types out of their entrenched idiocy -
It is all based on deep fear etc - and a kind of overwheening arrogance, which doesn't even see that it is arrogance.

To quote JC 'they know not what they do'.

Krishna says in the Bhagavad Gita that the wise man should not disrupt the mind of the ignorant - perhaps that is the best thing, because it is clear that no progress is taking place here.

 

hehe, palden dorje is sitting under a tree, but he is inviting alot of buddhists and thereby inspiring them to follow a righteous code or path.

 

You said he returns I agree, but I am asking if there is a reason given in the bible, maybe you could enlighten me about this.

If the bible does not give a reason, it just says "He will come", and nothing more, then ok, just tell me there is no reason as to why he should return, he just does, and we really don't know the reason as to why he will return.

 

No no, you are mistaken , Jesus has come to give peace to this world.

 

Here's something you might find of interest, BBB. It's called the "Ignore" function of this forum. You click on the person's name (or icon under their name) and in the View Profile page, click on "Add Me to Your Ignore List."

It works wonders. I added C and I to it just yesterday and now their messages just dont appear to me any longer. I only know they entered something because I see a line in the thread with their name on it and a message saying "This message is hidden because ___________ is on your ignore list."

Now I don't have to read their crap any longer.

You too can have your very own Ignore List today. It's easy. Follow the simple instructions (see above) and live relaxed and with peace of mind. Why wait ... get your's Today!

Thanks Darrell - but I think actually I'll just return to my earlier resolution to just stay out of this c/anity forum.

 

Maybe your politically correct Jesus came to give peace to the world, but the Jesus of the Bible didn't.

Jesus Christ Matthew 10:34 "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35. For I have come to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her motherinlaw- 36 a man's enemies will be the members of his own household. 37. Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; 38 and anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.

I'm not mistaken, and neither is Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ Matthew 10:23,33 "Whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in heaven. 33. But whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.

The world has a political Christ, you have to read the Bible to see the real one.

 

When the real words of Christ appear, thats when the world has to run. Negative energy for the world, is the truth of Christ own Words. The Bible tells you flat out, the world cannot stand Gospel truth.

 

Sorry Jesus could not have known he would be crucified on a cross, therefore this entire quotation is garbage, not unlike much of the book it was taken from.

 

Jesus tells us that if it were not for His return no flesh would be saved. The prophecies of the Bible tells us that a terrible time is coming to this world. And Christ will return to destroy the enemies of God. The Bible tells us, that in the last days the Jews will return to land of Israel, and the nations of the earth will be fighting over who controls Jerusalem.

 

Really, than can you explain to me how the Bible knew about astroids 1500 years before science knew about them? Or can you explain to me how the Bible knew that Jerusalems Old East Gate would have another Gate built onto it, and that Gate would be sealed, and all attempts to open that Gate would fail?
Or could you explain to me how the Bible knew the Jews would return to Israel and take the south part of Israel first(1948) and then take Jerusalem second(1967). Could you explain that to me?

 

No it is not based on deep fear, it is based on deep truth. And it is Biblical truth found in the prophecies of God's Word, that you appear to be closed off to.
The Bible tells us just before the return of Christ we would see the Jews return to the land of Israel, the will retake Jerusalem. Jerusalems East Gate will have another Gate built onto it, and that Gate will be sealed, and all attempts to open it will fail. The Jews upon returning will take the south part of Israel first(1948) and they will take Jerusalem back second(1967) Israel will be surrounded by enemies. And there will be a great conflict coming when the nations of the world begin to fight over who will control Jerusalem.

Does any of this sound a little familiar? The Bible states this would happen near the end of time, and it should be obvious, that the Bible has been telling us the truth.

 

Well the reason I have repeated it, is because I can't get a responce from you countering the truth of the prophecies. You seem to talk around them, yet I have gotten no responce from you refuting them. Is it that you don't have an answer for me? And now you like our Buddhist friend have been reduce to threats. It seems to me, when you guys can't refute something, then you begin to threaten people with banning. And this you call being open minded? This only reveals the weakness of your arguement. When all else fails, threaten them with banning.

 

So I take it you can no longer speak about your religion either because it was written long ago as well? So, what would you like to talk about ?
